    Hello,

    Thank you

    Are you not intending to do the studios? We preferred the studios to the park.

    Fastpass is easy to use - you scan your ticket and you get a fastpass ticket. On there is a time you can then collect your next fastpass ticket for a different ride.

    Star tours fastpass was closed on Tuesday. Pirates of Caribbean is closed for refurb.

    Parade - start getting into position at around 4.15 if it's important you get a good view. We got there at 4.30 and managed to squeeze into a teeny gap so kids had a front row view.

    Dreams show at the end of the day (Fireworks + projections) is amazing. Starts at 8pm. They are projected all over the castle, so if you have small people in your group, you will either need to hold them on your shoulders for the 20 minute show so they get the full thing, or get yourself into a good position around 7pm and wait.

    That is the last thing in the day, so being on Vinci at 10pm will be a bit bizarre!

    But don't ignore the studios - animagique is amazing, as is motor show. Tower of terror is awesome and kids loved crush's coaster.

    Hello, No I had not intended on going. I must say I am kind of suprised at the size of the two, they look rather small.

    Not too fussed about Pirates ;-). We are only there for the day so wanted to focus on the one park.

    Yes it will be odd going up there at 10pm, we may or may not go, depends on how we feel and if I feel safe etc...

    We will see how it goes and if DD wants we can pop to thr Studios for a while, depends on what we get through really.x

    So was the queue big for Star tours without the fastpass then?

    We are only there for a day so just want to enjoy as much as we can really. :-)

    Why do you want to be at the top of a car park with nothing to see or do at 10pm?!

    Queue for star tours was 45 mins. Queue for Dumbo was 60 mins, Queue for Buzz was 20 mins (with Fastpass). Queue for Phantom Manor was 50 mins. Carrosel (sp?!) was 50 min queue. Space Mountain was a 15 minute queue with Fastpass. Riverboat queue was 30 mins. Big Thunder mountain was 15 min queue with fastpass. Peter Pan was a 10 min queue with fastpass.

    Never had EMH, but only selected rides open during them - don't know which ones as we were staying off site.

    Well... The idea was from someone off here, as we can't go into Park on the Sunday and it closes at 10pm, you can see the fireworks from there, that was why! lol...

    EMH gives you - Dumbo, Peter Pan, Mad Hatters, Le Carrousel, Buzz Lightyear and Space Mountain.

    We will just have to play it by ear and see how we go.x

    Thank you

    the direct number I have for the Cheyenne is 0033 1 60 45 62 00.

    You can check in anytime at the Cheyenne, and pick up your park tickets, leave your luggage etc. Your hotel room key will normally be available from 3pm on your check-in day.

    I think bylromarha's ride times could well be similar to your Monday in the park, as its French school holidays when you are there. Definitely do EMH, and do it from 8am when the park opens for you, that first EMH hour is much quieter than the one from 9am to 10am. The studios is great, we spent loads of time there this week because Pirates was down and BTM was being temperamental. Make sure you see the main Magic on Parade in the main park, and Dreams from in front of the castle somewhere. If you don't have time for the Studios this time, so be it.

    Hopefully you'll get a good taste of DLP in your one day :).
