Sunday 22nd June to Thursday 24th July So "time flies when you're having fun" as the old motto goes, and it certainly has flown by. Last time I worked at Disneyland Paris I did a daily blog but that simply wouldn't be possibly as a long-term thing, nor would it be very interesting as some days are pretty much the same as others.

Day 1 - Friday 6th June After getting the Eurostar to Disneyland Paris, I got the train over to Val d'Europe and checked in for my contract at the Fantasia building. It didn't take more than a couple of minutes and as I had a couple of hours to spare until I had my housing meeting I went for lunch.
