yesterdag i've been to the park,
tuesdayevening, when i came home from a customer, at 23:50 i've decided to leave for disneyland, so, fueled the car, too a blanket and, there i went for a 5 hour drive.
arrived at 5:00 so, still time for a little nap.
once inside, at 9:45, it looked great, this was my 16th visit, and there was a lot, and i mean a lot of refurbushment going on, mostly painting.
the BTM looked nice, with the new paintjob, also main street was in perfect shape.
laqt evening very tired after another 5 hours of driving home, but damn't i feel good, it was a relative long time ago for me (like a hole year)

so, people beware: it will sparkle for it's 15th birtday.

We've done it in 5 hours from the UK including the Eurotunnel crossing, we live near Cambridge in the UK

We live in Limburg, near Tongeren and only drive 3,5 hours.  And then they claim we're slow...  :wink:

yeah, but if you want to drive safe at night, you really need to stop a few times for a coffee  :lol:
and i don't want to race the thalys.

For me, it's usually about 2½ hours from Calais, I start out fairly leisurely and try to stick to 130kph but by the time i've hit the A1 driving down towards Paris i'm usually at about 150kph+

yeah, there was a lot of time to get there, and i was really tired, so i just kept my volvo at 110-120 kph. relaxed cruising at night. no need for speeding. if i could make a choice, i would like to die riding rock&rollercoaster of space mountain with my girlfriend with me and a good glass of Duvel,
not on the way too disneyland
