PINKYLEONA

 At first, I planned this day as the "reserved" day for rest, in case we went home late from previous day at Disneyland, so I had no proper plan in mind. But knowing that I have another task(s) unfinished, which is:

1. another cafe hopping

2. properly buy souvenirs

We dedicated this day for another city stroll, chilling at cafes and souvenirs hunting. Since we visited tourists spots like Trocadero & Louvre Museum in Day 2, we start the day by going to Angelina!

We took a lot of videos than photos, really! Videos below :

Okay, some may voted Angelina being the best place to have hot chocolate, but I like Carette's more. Angelina's deeper, while Carette is creamier, which I love more (considering I like all things creamy like carbonara, milky beverages, etc)

We started the day early in the morning (as always, we woke up around 4,5am haha) and get ready to go to Disneyland. But we waited for our food delivery (Nasi Lemak Paris) first at 7am. We get ready, eat breakfast (The same Nasi Lemak Paris for breakfast, and pack the remaining to Disneyland).

We arrived at the Metro, going straight to the ticker puchasing counter and told the staff there we wanted to go straight to Disneyland. The staff was helpful, and gave us clear direction of where to change train (without leaving the station, only change platform) and we must follow signed to Parc du Disneyland at all times. It was easy and to be honest, super cheap!

Since we took Uber a lot of times, around 20 Euro per short trip, taking this Metro (1-hour journey) is only 21.12 Euro (for 3 pax)! But I'd choose Uber all over again for city stroll because I am lazy to understand city maps, don't want to experience all the negative things tourists always experience like pickpocket, scams etc.. so I'd still choose Uber for my safety..

Note : The Metro that we took, are of 2 types -if compared to Malaysia, LRT first and then change to KTM.. in their KTM-like train (long distance coverage), I even told husband to keep handphone in bag at all times hahaha thus not so much photo 

And just like I read everywhere in blog/reviews, taking Metro to Disneyland is the wisest! Train stops exactly at Disneyland, very convenient to tourists. Since we book the admission ticket ahead, we had no trouble going in straight! But I thought going to Paris in low season, the crowd would be smaller, but it is still full though (tickets are sold out for the day!)

We are in awe with Disneyland (being first timer), but sadly the weather is not good. It's winter, and lightly rain.. so sadddd.. As an asian with no thick skin (lol), I thought the day is already cold enough, so we skipped the outdoor rides.. Imagine when it's cold enough, and you went like spinning up in the air. I think I might lose my nose (haha)

And previously I had warned my husband, if it rain, just make sure Euseff put his gloves on, so it'd keep him warm.. (we had experience in the past where my fingers went super cold on vacation in winter in Australia, I have to find warmer pronto!)

And his very favourite character is up, Buzz Lightyear! He laid eyes straightaway to the gigantic Buzz figure at the store and since it's cold outside, I invited him in and of course, the persuasion skills begin. Told him he could have 1 toy only.. but came out with 2! Ha ha ha (one child syndrome)..

Knowing Euseff is going to sleep early (8pm), we did not stay until late night at Disneyland (and I'm okay with it), and we stayed until the mandatory characters parade and then went back to hotel.. 

Still gloomy skies all day, I hate this thing the most about our Paris trip (although we already book tickets according to research from 3 different weather forecast websites -the actual day it REALLY DIFFERENT from the forecast ones! grrr)

It's a long day, I even just fall asleep in living area (sofa bed), and husband took care of Euseff (eat, bath & milk) before sleeping.. 

 

Once we arrived at Galleries Lafayette, we are in awe! I initially planned for some shopping including toys for my son (to reward him for being awesome to this day) 

The staff at information counter was helpful to us, and we learned that the top floor (Galleries Lafayette Rooftop) is this must-visit for tourist for another unobstructed view of Paris & Eiffel Tower 💕

It's about lunch time now and we went to this Restaurant Istanbul for some halal meals & toilet trip haha

Next, we agreed to visit another tourist spot which is: the Louvre Museum!

Since we covered it all (the top 3) in a day, we tried to walk back to Hotel along Seine river (mind you, we didn't bring stroller at all, so it's all walk, walk and walk!) But my son has been awesome so far, didn't throw tantrums at all, eat well, had good bowel movement.. my son is definitely heaven-sent!

 

Along the Seine River, we learned that around Louvre Museum, the souvenirs are the cheapest! The seller can even communicate with you in Bahasa Melayu! We didn't buy anything (souvenir) yet, but waited until another 2 days to plan (how much we dare to spent, knowing the market price so far), and will write about it later!

Halfway along the Seine River, we took another Uber back to our hotel hahaha because it has been a long day and we deserved some rest for another cardio tomorrow, at Disneyland Paris!
