Disneyland Paris.

 

So I just got back from 3 days at Disneyland Paris.  I’m exhausted. Here are a few pictures from Main Street USA.

Dream House

As we are going to Disney this week my two year old niece is obsessed with Sleeping Beauty’s Castle. Every time she sees anyone (and it has been this way for the last week) she tells them she’s going to the Disney Castle.

 

It got me thinking about my dream house.  Ever since I was a kid I always wanted to live in the Walton’s House.

 

I love the idea of the front porch and the giant kitchen and living room.  But while the outside would like this I would have to have it modern inside. The grandparents room I would turn into a library and movie room.  (I’ve always wanted a library in my house I love books and currently the only way I have them is on my Kindle).

I’d have the entire house wired for internet and music. I’d have a giant America style refrigerator and the big wooden dinning room table.  Modern bathrooms and a few more bedrooms but essentially it would a perfect twist. I know the only way I’m going to get my dream house is if I win the lottery but every girl can dream right?

Hunger Games

The Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

When I started reading this I thought it was a little slow and I was wondering why everyone is raving about it. But once the Hunger games actually started I couldn't put it down. I'm not as in love with as some people but it's a good book. Now time for the next one in the series.

Ace of Cakes

While I was on holiday last week I got addicted to reruns of Ace of Cake. One of the episodes that was shown involved making a cake in the shape of a Highland Cow. As a coincidence the next day I went to Glamis Castle they had real Highland Cows.

Day seven

Today we to Deep Sea World, we took the train over the Forth Rail Bridge. There was a cuool tunnel with sharks swimming over head. We then went to the National Gallery and saw some paintings by Da Vinci, Botocelli, Raphael. We also went to the National Botanical Gardens.

Day Six

So today we went to Edinburgh Castle. It is up a very steep hill but has spectacular views over Edinburgh. My feet and back ache from all the walking, but I enjoyed myself. Only one day left

Day five

Today we decided to go to Dundee for the day. Leaving early we drove to just outside to Glamis Castle. We went on a guided tour and got to see where the late Queen Mother grew up and her wedding dress.

We then drove into Dundee and went to the RRS Discovery, the ship that Scott used to get to the
Antarctic. Afterwards we did a little shopping before heading back to our caravan.

Day four

So today we caught the train from Edinburgh waverly to south queensferry and went on the maid of the forth boat trip out to Inchcolm Abbey. We then went to Royal Yacht Britannia.
Long day but great fun.

Day three

Went to Our Dynamic Earth today. We got to travel back in time experience the big bang, a volcanic erruption, we also got to go on a 4d ride through the biospheres of earth. We also got to see a dome show about astronauts.

Had a great time.
