I belive the river is called Rio Grande, witch seperate Santa Fe and Cheyenne.
Please let me now if I'm mistaken  :)

Nice pictures there, thanks for sharing!

You bet I did.  :D
The crowd in the park wasn't to much, but not low either. I would say in was the middle.
I felt like it was more people at the evening, but you still wouldn't struggle to find a seat in the restaurants.

I think this foto says how much people it was:

First I try to give a little report of what we was doing there.
Please don't shoot me if I'm spelling something wrong  :)

Day 1
Arrived on monday at Charles de Gaulle at 1315.
Collected our bags, and went to the Vea bus. Had to take a minor shuttle bus to another terminal and go on the Vea bus there. Huge crowd to board the bus.
Arrived at Santa Fe arround 1500, and went for check in. Just had to wait 1 minutes to check in. We had booked 2 rooms, with 1 person in each. First the cast member couldn't find the second room, so I started to wonder. But she went to another person "backstage", and it got resolved. Got a room near the lake, and near the Village.

Went to eat at the Rainforest cafe in Village.
Had a fish and chips. The second time in my life I've tryed it and lets say I want more of it. After that we walked to the studios and had a look there. Watched the Stars 'N Cars parade.

Some pictures:

Day 2

Har early breakfast (around 7). Used the Extra Magic Hour to get early in ti Disneyland park. Was there to around 945 since we then went for the Studios and used the whole day there to explore the park.

During the day, we wanted to to the Studio Tram Tour, but when we aproched it, it was closed due to technical problems. It wasen't a big problem, since we don't had to do it.
Tryed many of the "scene" show. Must say that I like the Cinemagiques. Had a mealbreak at the Rainforest cafe i Village around 1400 before we went back to the studios. Ended the day by taking the bus back to Santa Fe, witch we didn't do so often since we felt it was easyer to just walk back to the hotel.

Some photos:

Day 3
This day we also had breakfast around 7 am.
Used the day in Disneyland Park. Took the Disneyland Railroad a couple times. Think it was just 1 train, with a wait time around half an hour.
Took a look in many of the shops in Main Street. So much to look at, and so many things I want to by!
Had a walk aroud the different areas. Tryed It's A Small world. Can't say it's my favorite. Think it's more for the younger ones (I'm 22).
By noon we went back to se Minnies Party Train. Love it! The music and the train. My favorite.  :D  :D  :D
When the train stoppen at Central Plaza, Goofy jumped off the train and run strait to a girl/women witch was standing there. The women was almost shocked of suprise, but ok.  :)
Think the picture under says alot:

Stayed and watche It's party time with Mickey and friens. Boring I must say. Dosen't suit me. After that we headed to buzz lightyears pizza planet to have a pizza-burger. An unusual taste, but good. Had a walk throuh Fantasyland.

Went over to the Adventureland and explored it.

That day we also checked out Frontierland, and watched the Disneys once upon a drem parade. Amazing!!!


DAY 4
On this day we had a tour to Val D'Europe and Sealife. Payed 5 euros for a minishuttle witch took us both way for the amout. Interesting to look at the animals at SeaLife. When we was finished, we had a walk around the shopping area and the mall, just too look. The rest of the day we just did what we wanted in the parks.

DAY 5
Day og departure. Didn't do very much, exept pack, relax and get to the airport to get home. All in all, we loved the stay!
