(Updated 11/12) BURN IT ALL (well not the Disneyland part) - a June 2024 TR for Paris and Disneyland Paris

Adventure Awaits! - Thursday June 13, 2024 (part 6)​

Next up, Big Thunder Mountain! We had a fastpass for it, cause we love it.


This is also one of my favorite ride photos - they put the camera at just the right spot to get great reactions

We kept going into Adventureland afterwards, and ran into one other photopass photographer (I realize that means my earlier comment was in error. Oh well - two is nothing to boast about, come on Disneyland Paris!)


Fun magic shots though.

That was over by Swiss Family Robinson, and it was open this time! So of course we had to do it.

1. I really like the whole Treehouse vibe and 2. there are great views!

From the treehouse is basically the only place to see this boat with Russell and Carl.

And you can't beat that view of the castle.


I have an unreasonable nostalgic fondness for the organ music they play at the treehouse.

And don't the hammocks look comfy? Though maybe not three on top of each other!

I think it's basically the same as at DisneyWorld, but still, gotta do it.

More Things We Hadn't Done Yet - Thursday June 13, 2024 (part 7)​

The one thing that's a bit different is that you can see the shipwrecked boat that the family came in on. And it's right by Skull Island which makes for some fun views as well.

Ok, next up, Aladdin's Enchanted Passages! It's a walk through with several dioramas of scenes from the movie.


Creepy Genie moon aside, it was neat.

They had some fun lighting effects to add some movement to each diorama. I wish there were more of these type of attractions - just fun theming things.

We dumped out pretty close to the hub, and we realized it was time for the next Million Splashes of Color show, so we ran up and managed to get a great spot!


It was a fun show! I liked the medley of all the Disney songs.

We needed snacks afterwards, so we went to Victoria's Cafe (which is basically a dessert shop) and got the special treat for Million Splashes of Color:

Not gonna lie, this looked better than it tasted - not that it tasted bad but I really liked the decorations. Also, it's way bigger than you think - like 8 inches across! This was raspberry biscuit, passion fruit confit, and vanilla mousseline cream. We didn't manage to finish it! But it was nice to have a sitdown break, and plan our next move, to another attraction that was closed before. Where were we heading? The Mysteries of Nautilus!

It's a walkthrough attraction where you walk through the submarine, but again - awesome theming.

Run-Ins with Authority - Thursday June 13, 2024 (part 8)​

HAHAHAHAHA as if that was all the pictures I'd include of this attraction.






There was even a "window" to look out and see sea creatures:

I really liked it - again, not exciting but just really cool theming.

The exit was again over by Space Mountain and Star Tours, so as we wandered around, we ran into Stormtroopers!

They started by harassing Trevor but I couldn't keep my mouth shut...oops!

We also got some snacks: a Stormtrooper waffle:

It's powdered sugar there on the top, but it was cold and not good. Bummer

Trevor also got some chicken nuggets to get some actual protein:

These were interesting - they tasted fine and normal but the breading was a bit different. So again, interesting.

Suitably fortified, time to ride Hyperspace Mountain again! We bought the fastpass though.

(dang picture limit)

Entering Our "Rides" Era - Thursday June 13, 2024 (part 9)​

I made us ask for the front row in each car 'cause there was a bit more leg room and it was easier for me to fit. Sitting in the back row of the car the first ride in the morning was hitting my knee a bunch, but sitting in the front row was way easier.

At this point, it was a little before 4:30, and it was time for us to head over to Disney Studios! Had to stop and get a croque monsieur on the way though:

Basically a ham sandwich with cheese on top. So yummy. Highly recommend.

We made our way over to Avengers Campus - Spiderman was hanging out saying hi!

We made our way over to Web Slingers and jumped in the single rider line that had a short wait - it ended up being about 15 min total (including the pre-show). I got 231,600 but Trevor got 204,600. Smoked him! LOL

Afterwards we ran into the Guardians of the Galaxy Dance party which was neat to see - it always makes me laugh.

After this, it was time for us to meet an Avenger at the Hero Training Center! We got Black Widow this time - woot! I like Black Widow.

Not gonna lie, I have literally no memory of this meet and greet but I'm sure it was fun.

Afterwards, it was time for WebSlingers again! We bought a fastpass this time so we could ride together, and waited about the same amount of time as we did when we did single rider, so not too bad!

Say hi to the spiderbots!

I got 243,300, while Trevor got 151,800. We were #1 and #2 in our car though!

Next we ran over to Flight Force, cause it was posting a short wait - woot!

Closing out Disney Studios - Thursday June 13, 2024 (part 10)​

Zoom! Flight Force gets a bad rap but Trevor and I really like it - I definitely like it better than RockinRoller Coaster. It has an IronMan animatronic in the pre-show that is pretty amazing.

Afterwards, we jumped over to Tower of Terror, for a different type of thrill.



I want to stay in the High Society Suite!


We got off at like 7:45, and the diner we wanted to eat dinner at closed at 8 - we snuck in just in time!

Super Diner!

We ordered the shawarma to split:


We wanted to get the giant Choco-Blast but they were out. Oh well! The shawarma was really good.

We actually finished eating 2 min before 8, so I ran outside to the food truck to try and grab one of their to-go desserts before they closed at 8 but the CM closed up right before I got there. *shrugs* It happens!

From here, we figured only one last ride to really close out the park, so we bought a fastpass and did Crush's Coaster! It felt like we spun a LOT more this time than the first time, which I liked better. Whee!

We were off by 8:15 and were planning to head back over to Disneyland, but the Cars Rally ride was right there, with no wait. It's a fun little spinner ride, like a combo of the teacups and Alien Swirling Saucers.

It really is way more fun than you'd think.

Right after we got off Trevor saw a fun helicopter and took a video:

Up next, back over to Disneyland!
