She is bless her...check out the Matadance video, whats new coming to DLP 2025, a retun show me & Emily did back in 2019, she is so cute then. Thanks for watching.

Aw lovely to hear from Debbie, always great receiving your comments - thank you so so much for all your support this year, watching our videos & commenting, it means such alot to us. We love Walt's...well Mr Disney Brownie, cool name you thought of there isn't as keen but only as it's quite pricey ha ha. Yes a bit of luck is in getting in on the day I am very sure...but it's always worth the shout isn't it. We will bring lots more exciting videos to you in January 2025. You have a wonderful Christmas yourself, take care, hope Santa brings lots of things your way. I love the legends at the end...you are so kind Debbie, maybe we should be Disney Brownie Legends ha ha. Lots of love, Merry Christmas and see you in 2025 of course with DLP content xxx

You are so welcome, glad I could be of help. I was very inspired to go that time too funny enough, I was looking at those dates and at Newport Bay but got side tracked and never went back to looking...and I have to persuade Emily's Dad ha ha. We will go back to DLP a few times and some booked...one coming up soon so keep watching. I might have a further look at those dates in May though, as they seemed to be coming up quite cheap for Newport Bay, compared to the other Hotels. Have an amazing time!. Thanks so much for watching and commenting!.

​@@DisneyBrownies-LE2024 True, the Superior Lake view room cost me for one person 1,964 Euro for 4 nights and 5 days at the parks. I have found that after I have visited every Disney park in the world that the two most important things are early planning and early booking.

Hi Debbie, the desserts were really good but then again I am always anywhere for the desserts ha ha. I think Billy Bobs is an okay Buffet, most people will get something that is good but some things passable. For us, it just doesn't have the quality of PYM Kitchen and to be honest Billy Bobs probably has much more variety...but I think it's not for us, again one of those places that many people rave about and we just don't get it really. However, one thing that was very good was the Chicken Fajitas. Really miss the Wild West Show - do you remember the hats, we still kept ours! - will keep them forever now for the memories. Lovely to hear from you and hope you are doing ok.xx

Hi there, yep it is very popular. We have been but still preferred PYM Kitchen - but think there is a bit of a divide between the 2 of those buffet's where peoples opinions are different. Check out our Marvel Buffet video...kzbin.info/www/bejne/eIekk6yrrJqNj8k Yes, Downtown does get very busy and hard to get a reservation, always check the app though as sometimes people have been known to get lucky at last minute. Also worth asking at the Hotel when there in case they have any cancellations. Thanks so much for watching and taking the time to comment.

Hi there, Mickey in his Phantom costume is only there some of the Year. For instance while it's Halloween in that meet and greet area it is Jack or Jack & Sally from The Nightmare Before Christmas, then Christmas season usually Santa Jack. When Mickey is there it is unlikely he will have a Photopass, not impossible but usually not. Mickey does however meet in his house in his classic outfit and there you get a much longer meet and a Photopass. Thanks so much for watching!. Next video is Sunday this week instead of Friday and we do have another upcoming trip, so stay tuned to the channel for lots more Disney Brownie videos.

@ thank you for replying.

Aw Debbie, I am so so sorry to hear your sad news - that is incredibly difficult to deal with and no age at all is it. Me & Emily send our love and hugs and I am glad in some way through this difficult time we have made you smile in someway. Disney is certainly not for everyone, but do you know what... in life we have to pick those magical things that make us happy and if something at Disneyland Paris makes you feel emotional in a happy way, then why not!. Sending you a big Christmas Disney Hug over the comments Debbie...look after yourself and I hope you and your family manage through this difficult time.xxx

I'm taking the family for Xmas so very excited!

@ 🥰 Thank you both so much . ❤️❤️ xx

We just love the back!...it's so much more fun. Thanks for watching and taking the time to comment.

Hi there and apologies for the delay in responding to your comment, thanks so much for watching and taking the time to comment. So, for the mattresses - I would say personal preference, for me & Emily we would say medium - not too hard or too soft, but slightly more on the harder side. My husband thinks hard, but equally slept well. Santa Fe is more of a budget Disney Hotel, so often the price is reflective - but at the same time, we do feel the beds are comfy and great theming - so a perfect Disney stay !. In terms of luggage, we have used the Disney Express many times, but usually on the way home - so that we can spend all day in the park until we need to leave and then get the luggage from the train station. Going to Disneyland Paris, it does depend on the time you arrive, time of year at Disneyland Paris - as to when the Parks close etc as to whether the Disney Express is worth it on your arrival. We have done it before on our arrival, when we arrived at the Train Station around 3pm and the Disneyland Park was open until 10 or 11pm - it was worth it. However, what we tend to prefer to do is travel on one day, book an offsite Hotel and then the next morning early make our way to a Disney Hotel around 7.30am - collect our Park tickets, leave our luggage and make our way to the Parks so that we do not miss any Park time. Each trip can be different though, dependent upon pricing/time of year etc. Hope this explains, enjoy the next time you go. Lovely to hear from someone in Holland!.

Yes: i am planning to do the same. By train the earliest time arriving in paris is about 10:30 am. I.also prefer to go to the disney parks the next day. Because its not the best preparation to sit in a train for 4 hours and then visit the parks right after... thanks for your information laura. Greets from holland

Do you know what each to their own with the whole premier access things, but from our point of view absolutely not...we honestly can get round all the rides in Disneyland Paris and we have shown this in our video - kzbin.info/www/bejne/boG7gZhjpdqdhNk watch this if you haven't already for lots of top tips, we have no priority passes or perks - we just plan everything!. I think unless you are going to Disneyland Paris for a very short amount of time like 1 or 2 days and intend to not go back and want to make the most of everything and can afford to pay the prices, then maybe do the premier access - but for rides I think they are all within reach without paying more, you just have to take some tips from Disney Brownies ha ha. Also shows that offer this...you can literally be sat next to or just behind these VIP seated areas by just queuing for longer or if you have a Mastercard check shows at City Hall or in the Studios at Guest Services as you can get free Mastercard tickets for some shows at some times, top tip though if you intend to do this check in the places mentioned first as rules can change on this regularly and also make sure you have your bank card and passport as proof. Otherwise queue for the shows a bit longer and chances are you will get a good seat. We have another KZbin channel - The Brownie Life which is our original and existing other channel, we focus more on Holiday/Travel, Primark, Hauls, Life Vlogs etc however, we originally posted Disney content on there - you will find over 50 videos on there, including February half term 2023 trip you may find useful. Thanks so much for watching us!.

You are amazing thanks sooooo much for the helpful info and I’ll definitely check out the recommended videos

I know, but when you are in Disneyland...to be fair they were really good. Some things in Disneyland Paris just cost more than others, so some things we just don't buy due to the cost and others, we just think we are here in Disneyland Paris so why not, especially when a coffee shop at home might charge something similar for a sweet treat...I know where I would rather be ha ha. Thanks for watching.

We would love to visit Berlin...we have another channel The Brownie Life for our travel & holiday vlogs, plus other things. Recently we visited Brussels but next on the cards is Germany I feel, never been to any part. If you interested in travel check out our other channel. Thanks for your comment - sounds like you have a great plan also to get from another country. Glad you enjoyed our video.

That's so cool, you stayed there all that time ago - really interesting to hear your details and fun for others to know in the comments. You are right with the no air con at Santa Fe - which is a big difference to some of the other hotels but we have stayed in Summer and never had an issue, but yes in the height of summer it can get pretty warm in the Hotel rooms. It's not something that would put us off, as we have stayed plenty of places without air con in hot countries. So glad you enjoyed the video and found it useful. Thanks as always in watching and for your interesting facts on Santa Fe!. Oh by the way...I have seen videos with Christmas Winnie myself, so cute. It's Christmas at Disneyland Paris now!.xx

Hi there, drinks facilities in your room - coffee pods & machine & kettle are all FREE of charge with your room. Thanks so much for watching, hope you found the video useful.

Hi there, thanks for watching...lots more coming up on the channel. Do you know, we were exactly the same back in 2017 - Emily was 7 years old and we booked every character dining experience and did everything like a one off, that we wouldn't go back. By the end of the trip me and Emily were in tears and I was like...no we have to come back ha ha. Since then a few times a year!, stayed in quite a few of the other Hotels at Disney, but nothing wrong with Santa Fe - obviously if not much in the price, I would try one of the others absolutely but when there is a big gap pricing wise no point when Santa Fe has got everything you need. Just had a look at our Road Map you get given in Santa Fe for some times for you:- Breakfast in La Catina is 7am-11am, Dinner 6pm-10.30pm. Starbucks 7am-11pm. Rio Grande Bar for drinks 5.30pm-12am. Trading Post Shop 8am-11pm. Hot Drink Dispenser machines are confirmed as the front larger blocks nearest river, so Luigi is block 14, Mater is block 33, McQueen is 46 and Sally is 54. The nearest to parks is Luigi, but then Mater, not that much in it really. Some people would prefer McQueen & Sally if closer to Reception and facilities, as you can have breakfast and then hop on a shuttle bus to Parks. If walking and not breakfast then Luigi is best. Are you thinking of a meal plan? - we have a video, granted very long but you could skip parts all about meal plans and breakfast etc, you might find it useful. We don't buy meal plans and the video explains exactly why. Thanks so much for watching.

Meal Plan video if you are interested kzbin.info/www/bejne/aZuak4aChbRob9k

Halloween is great, we did the Halloween season this year and last - videos on our channel for any ideas for you ready for next year...although may well be different Halloween 2025 but it will be an idea. We love the walk on a morning to the Parks, maybe the one going back not quite so much ha ha when you are beyond tired. Still, we love to look around on the walk - feel like you experience so much more walking than just getting the shuttle buses. Thanks so much for watching.

So pleased you enjoyed, I was just glad I managed to be relaxed and chat about TOP TIPS staying at a Disney Hotel for long enough, given that I wanted to film the full walk in real time...I couldn't mess it up ha ha. We have visited the Disney Hotel New York - Art of Marvel but only for the Restaurants and Drinks. Check out other videos on this channel, The Manhattan Restaurant and our other channel, The Brownie Life as older videos prior to 2024 are on there - including the Manhattan, Downtown Restaurants, the Bleeker Street Lounge & Skyline Bar in the Hotel. Christmas 2025 sounds a great idea!.

Hi lovely to have you here on the channel, thanks so much for watching and your comment. February can be a good time to go to Disney, check out our other channel The Brownie Life, as Disney videos previous to January 2024 are on there - including our February trip 2023. Anything for 2024 is on this channel, our dedicated Disney channel, Disney Brownies.

Thanks for watching...yes it looks very magical in the shops at Disneyland Paris when it comes to Christmas.

Even though we go to Disneyland Paris many times, we are not annual pass holders - main reason, we want to stay in the Disney Hotels and most annual pass holders end up staying off site as you can't always get the Disney Hotels Room Only much cheaper than the package deals, depending when you go. For us, the off site Hotels are great for odd nights but not for a whole Disney trip...not Disney themed and you have to use the shuttle buses. Thanks for watching.

Hi and thanks so much for watching. Newport Bay is beautiful...head over to our other channel The Brownie Life where we cover a stay in Newport Bay in February 2023. We only started this dedicated Disney channel in January 2024, so any previous Disney videos are over on our other channel, so you might find some useful. Really glad you liked this video, with a walk to to the Parks and our TOP TIPS, glad I could help.

Aw Debbie WOW, that is all amazing at your achievement with your weight loss, a massive WELL DONE! & reaching 60...Happy Birthday!, have a wonderful day xx Thanks as always in watching our channel/channels with The Brownie Life and I know you have been our first subscriber which means such a great deal to me & Emily and something that will always be remembered. All this time and you are still watching us, thank you and we truly mean that. Hope you are doing something special tomorrow, you not off on a secret trip to Disney are you? ha ha. Glad this video was useful and of course you can use it as part of your steps, join me anytime for a walk in Disneyland Paris - one day we might meet there hey!. The walk is beautiful along the river in Disney and we much prefer to any shuttle bus no matter what the weather is. On the subject of age, from me turning 40 my life seemed to go downhill in every way possible - I really hit some lows!...I am so glad the last 2 years I have put my attention to KZbin, to make memories, hopefully help and entertain others and build a community on both channels, something I now feel really proud of - thanks for been a part of it. Happy Weekend & Happy Birthday!...Love from Me & Emily, Disney Brownies & The Brownie Life.xx

@ Aww Laura, thanks to you all so much 🥰 Such a lovely reply which also means a lot to me too. I wish I was heading off on Eurostar tomorrow for a secret trip to DLP 🙌 & especially as I’ve already seen pics on Instagram today of Winnie in his Christmas outfit ….🥰 the cutest bear ever, adorable ! ( unfortunately I just haven’t the finances at the moment ! After redundancy a couple of years ago, it’s been so tough trying to find work- I’ve had numerous interviews etc and it’s been a real struggle but thankfully a couple of months ago I started working pert time doing a bit of bar work again! I done bar work many many years ago alongside a full time job and I’m enjoying being back again on the other side of the bar to what I’m usually used to 😜🤣🍷🍸🍾🥂! I’m sorry to hear how things were for you when you turned 40 , bless you. So glad that through your channel you’ve been able to enjoy it and start feeling better , congratulations on that 🤩🙌 KZbin is a great little community and the Disney tribe are all amazing ! ❤️ x

WOW that's a long time since you last went, in many ways it will be different given the Cars theme but some aspects will be similar I am sure. Coming next video is a full overview of Santa Fe, so check that out for more info. Lovely you are going back and thanks so much for watching!

Hi and thanks for watching, really appreciate your comment. This was filmed in the month of March, end of March 2024 but actually over a busy Easter Holidays day, so a busy park day. The idea of the video is to showcase you can actually get everything done in terms of rides and attractions if you do things in a certain order or at least pick wait times when they are lower rather than just enter a queue just because you really want to go on a ride regardless if the wait is an hour, when later in the day it might be 5 mins for instance. This video is just giving those top tips for rides that works for us over the many years we have been going to Disneyland Paris.

Thanks so much for your comment and for watching. To answer your questions, it sounds like you may not be booking a Disney package. If you were, then you can add the Birthday Cake onto a Disneyland Paris package but the cost will be paid upfront before you get there. By Birthday celebration - I imagine you mean a Birthday cake?. We did this back in 2023 and had a meal in Bistrot Chez Remy, TOP TIP - book a Restaurant where you might be able to have the Birthday cake instead of a Dessert to save you money. How to book, you can book your Restaurant and add on your Birthday cake on the App or call Disneyland Paris Meal Reservations Team once you have your meal booked in to add the cake on, plus you may have more options in choosing which cake you may prefer or you can call the Reservations Team to book in your Restaurant and Birthday Cake together, upto 60 days before unless you are staying in a Disney Hotel - which you can do all of this as soon as you have booked your package. Adding on your cake this way, you will reserve your birthday cake but not pay for this until your meal. We have done a video on KZbin on our other channel, The Brownie Life on Birthdays in Disney - kzbin.info/www/bejne/eoGkdKetpc6Fepo. For your question about tickets and Hotels, we have only ever booked packages - but I understand that if you book separate, you automatically get a park reservation with a Disney Hotel stay - so I would say book Hotel, then tickets. If staying off-site you will need to book your tickets with an added park reservation, without the park reservation part you won't get in to the Parks. Hope that is useful, have a wonderful time when you go - lots more videos coming up on the channel here on Disney Brownies. The Brownie Life is our original and current other channel, we did cover Disney before on there but now Travel/Holiday destinations and Primark, Lifestyle etc. Subscribe if you haven't already as it will help Disney Brownies grow and hope to see you on another video. Thanks for watching.

Hi there, thanks so much for commenting and watching. Don't mind at all you asking about things, it's great interacting and helping others on their Disney journey's. The Lion King Hoodies were from Primark but earlier in the year, so doubt they would have now and not seen since but sometimes things can pop up the sales. I am sure I bought them in the sale in Primark for £5 each. If you like Primark check out our other channel The Brownie Life, we do lots of Primark, Lifestyle and Travel/Holiday vlogs. Primark is great for Disney bargains. The Pineapple Fritters were great and glad they seem to still be on the menu, I think anything from Last Chance Cafe is good though, everything we have tried has been. Enjoy your trip and thanks again.

@DisneyBrownies-LE2024 thankyou so much, you got a bargain with the hoodies. I didn't realise you had another chanel I'll take a look over there. Love your vlogs x

@@sharononeill3440 Great, thanks - hope you enjoy our other channel also. Thanks again for watching!

Morning Debbie, it's getting to that Christmas countdown stage!. I think I could live in most of the shops in Disneyland Paris, love just looking around them. Emporium is massive isn't it...always so much to pick from. Only problem is I want to buy so much and then stop myself, then hardly buy anything and regret it later!. Future trips, I am going to have some money aside so I actually do buy a little more, as I usually talk myself out of buying things which is probably good, but now editing these videos I am sad I didn't get some things now! Happy Weekend xx

Thanks for watching and yes although we do cover the weather, given in Disneyland Paris you can get extreme weather one way or the other sometimes - it can be really hot but you can get storms etc too. I just showcased the weather as some people find it interesting and to prepare people that didn't know this to go prepared for all types of weather, obviously non of us would melt away I know...I just hate Thunder & Lightening and it's more frightening in a Disney Park ha ha. This video does cover what to expect in the Parks not just the weather, it covers our typical day at Easter, crowds levels and what we did in our day, but mentions the weather as this was a factor when we were there. The rest of our Spring playlist covers all aspects of Disneyland Paris and the Parks.

Great - thanks so much for watching and pleased you enjoyed the video and like us love Cowboy Cookout!

Thanks for watching, yes I imagine there would be incredible. We absolutely love Disneyland Paris, but just don't quite get the hype with the Electrical Sky Parade.

Hi there and thanks for watching...I might have to be greedy and have more than 1 ha ha!. Probably the Cheesecake & Pineapple Fritters.

Happy Weekend Debbie x Yes you must visit Cowboy Cookout - in our opinion comparing say the burgers from here to Hyperion there is no doubt Cowboy Cookout is the winner Really good food, good value and good spacious themed surroundings, we love it!.xx

Hi there, it's so good - not very much on the menu, but then in most of the quick service/counter service places in DLP they don't tend to have more than a few options in each place and some of the other places can duplicate food items whereas Cowboy Cookout really stands out for great food, good prices for the value and different to some of the other places. Definitely head there on your next trip, thanks for watching.

Thanks so much for watching, keep tuned for more Halloween & Christmas content.

Hi Debbie, the Disneyland Hotel Mickey sounds good - not seen that. There is so much in the World of Disney and we always try and shop there, or have a really good look around on our first day of the our trip if we don't have a park day. If we do have park days it's more of a quick whip round - as often we are then busy in the parks. We have a Minnie & Mickey plush from years ago we love to bring out at Christmas. Some of the things at World of Disney were quite expensive whereas other things not too bad at all. I loved those Christmas glasses...but did I buy them?. Glad you enjoyed the Vlog....next one coming up today at 4pm is RIDES!. Happy Weekend.xx

Yep you saw right...I mean I reserved 2 obviously ha ha. Thanks for watching.

Hi there, yes I get how to say it now, glad you booked and you are welcome for the video. We always try to aim to give as much info as possible, with top tips but also capture the magic of things in Disneyland Paris and always laughs thrown in too. Thanks for watching us.

Aw Hi Debbie, honestly Tower of Terror such an amazing themed ride - but very scary with the drops - your stomach literally doesn't know what is happening, it's all over the place and the worst thing is nothing to really hold onto - I just gripped my seat with dear life ha ha!. Thanks again for your comments about my editing - I really love editing, I know some KZbinrs are not keen on that side but I actually really enjoy putting the videos together but the videos that seem to take days to put together maybe a different story ha ha. The shops just generally at Disney are incredible, even if buying very little they are just wonderful to look around. I am definitely gonna head back to this shop more, it was great. My best bit in there right now - probably TOT Stitch, the TOT Water Bottle and the TOT jumper that was on display - with the design on the back. You should get the hat next time!. On this last trip for Shops I have done a mixture of talking while going around, just walking around with music over and then some with pricing etc - just to see what people prefer. I am glad you like the personal touch from us, good to know. Coming up...more Shops & Ride videos.xx

Footage just this month, October 2024 - thanks for watching. We have just returned from a trip to DLP for the very start of the Halloween season. We have a playlist - which we are adding too for Halloween at Disneyland Paris 2024, check out our other videos. Thanks for watching.

That's a great idea, a HTH Stitch for going on ride...I should ask my Husband to buy one for me if I go on ride ha ha. Thanks so much for watching.

But I have some extra questions is if Miguel and Mother Gothel will do a signature for guests?

Hi there, so pleased you are going to Disneyland Paris - you will have so much fun!. I can try and help plan your meets, would recommend you make sure you have the Disneyland Paris App downloaded so you can refer to Characters meets, as well as anything else you require at Disney. If you are only there for 2 days, think that's what you meant in the comments?. I would queue for Jack & Sally in Frontierland FIRST, during extra magic hour or as soon as you get to the park if you don't have EMH. If there are others in your party, only one has to stay in the queue - others can do rides and come back. The Jack and Sally line gets really long, the earlier you are there the better. After Jack and Sally - say that you are done by 10/10.30? or before - head to Captain Hook just around the corner in Adventureland, I believe his times are from 10.30am - even if you are there earlier, it can often be good to arrive before the start of the meets. Then either Chip and Dale in Adventureland, you could check out the queue and see how long it is OR head to Goofy, back in Frontierland - his meet will already have a queue but sometimes not always big as further end of the park. You could check out the Castle Courtyard from late morning, lunch, early afternoon to see if you bump into any Villains. If by any chance you get all that done before the 1st Mother Gothel meet - which I think is 12.30, but again check the App - as I don't have access to the times right now and I would recommend you be there an hour before to queue to be at the front. Then do the Mother Gothel experience, if not enough time - do the next showing?. When we were there Miguel met 4-6pm, but this could have changed - but then you might be able to fit in his meet that afternoon - you will have to queue for a long time before though!. Then the second day - head to Stitch, he is now on the App - no times showing my end until tomorrow, so might be too late to respond to you - that's why just giving you a rough guide to help - but not exact as I don't know times. Stitch is now meeting at the Videopolis Theatre near Hyperspace/Star Tours in Discoveryland and I would imagine it will be mornings. It is where Minnie's meet across Europe used to be if you know. Stitch should be wearing his new Vampire costume - head there early - maybe an hour before the start of the meet?. Then if you do any other meets that you didn't do the day before, so any you missed from Captain Hook/Goofy or Chip and Dale. If you didn't get to do Mother Gothel experience do this from late morning if you can or after other meets. Then head to Castle courtyard before and after - as you walk through to see if you can get to see any of the Villains. Hopefully after all of that you manage to get all the meets done and have time for the Mickey's Celebration show, rides and snacks etc. Have an amazing time. I will check App again in the morning for DLP and if anything significantly different I will message you to advise, otherwise hopefully the plan might help you!. Main thing is if you think all of them is not possible in your time frame to definitely prioritise who you want to see the most just in case. Have fun!. Recommend a Photopass - All the Characters you have mentioned should have except Goofy not listed as one, but we got one and you won't get one for Mother Gothel or Captain Hook. There is a Photopass photo shots near the Castle and at the entrance to Frontierland in case you were interested - think we usually got them lunchtime period - think around 1pm ish, but again there is no confirmed times for these.

Miguel should sign, but Mother Gothel unlikely too - but you could try, no harm in asking. We don't do autographs now - we often buy the books to use for photos - noticed there didn't seem to be a Halloween Autograph book in any of the shops when we were there.

@@DisneyBrownies-LE2024 My God, this is too detailed! Thank you very much for your words, I will try to follow the plan you give, in order to meet more Halloween characters. 🥰🥰🥰

@@DisneyBrownies-LE2024 Also thanks for your reminding, I have prepared some notebooks for signature, I will have an ask to Mother Gothel. 😊

Hi there, yes I do remember the pool was very cold...it's still a great pool though. Enjoy Easter, check out all of our videos Spring 2024 trip, includes videos at Easter this year. Thanks for watching.

Aw thanks Debbie for commenting - so glad the footage all did well, with me putting together lots of spots...you know I love getting a good spot for things at Disney ha ha.xx
