Day 6 at Disneyland Paris   After our buffet and having packed all of our belongings on the coach, we headed to the parks.  Most of us went to Walt Disney studios for the big thrills and some went to the Disneyland Park for the Magic Kingdom adventure.   There was a rush to the […]

Up very early for a buffet breakfast before heading off to Paris at 0815 hours.  Traffic was horrendous – the nearer to Paris we got the more and more police vans we passed as there was a planned demonstration taking place in the area near where we were going to.  Eventually got to Tour Montparnasse […]

Calm crossing over the Channel with spectacular views of the sea and missed by the pupils who were now getting their well deserved sleep they so needed. Arrived […]
