1. Disney Dreams
Disney Dreams is the firework show at Disneyland Paris. It is on every night, times vary depending on what season/time of week it is. I'd say it was my favourite part of Disney even though there are so many memories. It's emotional. It has brilliant water shows, fireworks, songs to sing along to, graphics and fire. It's truly amazing, and I don't think videos can show you how good it is in real life. It's an absolute must.

2. Ride The Tower of Terror
The Tower of Terror is famous at Disneyland. It's a plummeting hotel lift with ghosts and an amazing view of the park. I was desperate to try it, and it did not disappoint. The decor is outstanding and the ride itself is stomach dropping. It's not for the faint-hearted though, I'd stay away if you're not good with heights!
3. Watch the Parade
The Parade is another obvious choice, but it truly is spectacular. See all your favourite characters dancing around, and watch the sets come to life. My personal favourite was Toy Story, Peter Pan and Tangled. I'd advise to get there early for a spot though, and don't stand behind the crowd because people will literally not care if they're blocking your view and standing right in front of you.

4. Have an American Breakfast at Annette's Diner
Bacon, eggs, sausages, tomatoes, beans, potato sticks, pancakes with syrup, coffee and orange juice. I cannot stress how good it is! We were staying at Disney's Santa Fe hotel and it was always continental breakfasts so on the second last day, we couldn't wait to get a cooked breakfast. The staff are lovely, it was such a quick service and the place is so pretty inside, decorated like a 50's diner. I highly recommend this restaurant.

5. Visit Sleeping Beauty's castle
The castle is an iconic feature of Disneyland, but inside is so beautiful. There's a dragon guarding the castle in the basement, and if you venture upstairs you can read the story in mosaic windows and storybooks. After that you can wander outside and look down on the park. It's one of my favourite parts of the park.

6. Stay at Disney's Santa Fe
Disney's hotels are really expensive, and if you're looking for somewhere cheaper to put your head down at night, Santa Fe is the one. It's a lovely hotel though, designed like a drive in movie, with New Mexico apartments. We were given breakfast each morning but decided to try the tex-mex themed buffet for dinner one night and we were so surprised! I thought it was by far the best buffet, and you get so much selection and it's worth the money.
7. Watch the car stunt show
I'm not the biggest fans of cars, but when you're on holiday you make the most of it. I was taken back by how much I enjoyed the show, actually. They keep it entertaining, different stunts, different stories and it definitely gets your attention.
8. Watch the Jedi Training Academy
It's all about the wee ones fighting with Darth Vader and learning the way of the force. I'm a massive Star Wars fan so I jumped at the chance of viewing it. I went in with the idea that it was just a mediocre little show, but in fact it was great. I only wish I was 8 years old again and could get up on the stage!

9. Ride Space Mountain
Another first for me, and I couldn't wait. Sadly we couldn't convince the wee one to go on it, but I managed to ride it twice during our visit. I adore theme parks and will go hunting for the tallest, scariest ride, so this was right up my street. What I will say is, when you're waiting to shoot off into the pitch black, make sure your head is resting on the back of the seat or else you'll end up with major whiplash. Such a great ride!
10. Have fun and let your inner child out
I'm obsessed with Disney, so you can imagine how ecstatic I was when I found out my boyfriend had booked 5 days as a Christmas gift. All I can say, is just enjoy the experience. It is such a magical place, it feels like you're in another completely different world. We're hoping to book a holiday to Florida for next year and it couldn't come quick enough!
