    New York in the united states
    Euro Disney in France

    Am I missing something?

    I assume your entrance tickets are covered. If you carry rucksacks with water and snacks for all of you, that will certainly help. We've always found the food there not very nice - it's pretty much all burgers and chips unless you pay a lot more at an expensive restaurant. As most fast food outlets, there are meal deals (inc drink). The tiny kids prices are certainly a lot cheaper than adults. I think a meal deal burgery thing is about 11 euros. In France it's almost always cheaper to have a meal than a snack. The money you describe sounds about right - it would be helpful if you had a credit card with you for emergencies. Do be aware of pickpockets etc - it happens everywhere. But it's a great place - you'll all have a great time - brings out the child in everyone.

    at breakfast they put out lovely ham and rolls, make up some sandwiches and take them into the park for a snack, there is a macdonalds there also, its about 28 euro for an evening meal, I think you will be fine with what you are taking just dont go mad

    A meal in the Village restaurants each eve will set you back between £50 and £75 each time, for family of 4.
