Holiday Deals: Fun Breaks at Frontierland in Disneyland Paris
Holidaymakers looking for a fun break in one of Europe's best theme parks can take advantage of the many convenient ways to visit Disneyland Paris. For visitors making their way from Britain there is the option of flying to one of the city's two main airports and getting a bus or a direct Eurostar service to the resort. Holidaymakers have a wide choice of how and when to book their cheap holiday deals to Disneyland which is in close proximity to the various attractions of the world's most visited city, welcoming one fifth of all tourists to Paris.
Because there are seven themed luxury hotels in the park Disneyland is a slightly different proposition to many theme parks as visitors can go for a holiday rather than a daytrip. Of the hotels the Disney Hotel is the most sought after and has such delights as a Disney character breakfast welcome for children. The hotel also has an indoor pool for a relaxing swim without being at the mercy of the temperamental northern European weather. Close to the Parks Lake, Lake Disney are two of the larger hotels, the Sequoia Lodge and the New England style Newport Bay Club.
The themed hotels are quite something but it is inside Eurodisney Paris that holidaymakers will find some truly fun and sometimes overwhelming experiences. Once thay have entered through the turnstiles beneath the Disney Hotel holidaymakers walk on to Main Street USA, Disney's version of a town in 1900's America. Main Street is the first opportunity to take part in themed Disney fun and to buy from stands and balloon sellers. At the end of Main Street holidaymakers will come to Central Plaza which is overshadowed by the fairytale castle. The castle is the entrance to Fantasyland, an area of the Park aimed at very young children.
For slightly older riders the best introduction to the Disney experience is Frontierland, the home of Big Thunder Mountain, Disneyland's version of a runaway mine train. Holidaymakers should keep an eye out for the show times of the theatrical spectaculars held in the Chapparal Theatre starring the usual Disney characters. For a couple of Euros visitors can spend some time shooting lasers at cactuses in the Rustler Roundup Shooting Gallery before heading to Phantom Manor. Within the walls of the Edwardian style house visitors fears are played on by the cob webbed hallways and frightening holographic ghosts.
For holidaymakers that want a break from the various delights of the main park the newer Walt Disney Studios Park is adjacent. In Walt Disney Studios holidaymakers can take their pick from a few special effects experiences and film based attractions. Cinemagique and the Armageddon special effects are probably the best of them and should be visited before a trip to see the spectacular stunt shows or going to ride on the stomach churning 5G Rock and Roller coaster. Two parks on one site ensure that cheap holiday deals to Disneyland Paris are great fun and excellent value for money.

Starbucks Holiday Tumbler?
Long ago (it could have been anywhere between holiday 2004 and 2006) I had a 12oz, small Starbucks holiday tumbler that was from that year's holiday line. It had a holographic red background with holographic snowmen and I believe Christmas ornaments over that. The lid was black. Have any of you owned one, or can perhaps direct me to a picture on the internet? It was lost years ago but I do want to replace it.
Thanks!
