(And ljcrochet, I think you're shortchanging yourself--look at the mileage compared to the minutes!)
I was shocked at the mileage vs the activity minutes but no clue what I should be adding
Disneyland Paris. (Did you see any posters or anything for Disney Loves Jazz or Electroland?)
i didn't see anything for Disney Loves Jazz or Electroland, but I wasn't looking
@ljcrochet - thanks for your trip reports. It looks like I definitely need to keep up with the walking in order to prepare for our trip. Did you encounter long lines and long waits anywhere? So sorry about the hotel issue. That sounds stressful. So glad you guys had fun at Disneyland Paris!
I was shocked at how much we walked each day.
I still have to contact Hotels.com but after crazy 2 travel days home i haven't had a chance.
Notice that I said 2 travel days home. We were flying home on Tuesday from Paris going to Phillie with a 5 hour layout since I thought the under 2 hour layover flight was too short. FLight left on time. My seat entertainment system was broken, a little over an hour into the flight we heard 3 weird beeps. Kind of like the beep you hear when you get to cruising altitude and can get stuff out of the overhead bins and recline your seats, but 3 in a row instead of one.
Then the pilot comes on the PA saying we have to go back to Paris due to an espresso maker malfunctioning. As we approached for landing, they had to burn off some fuel, and then said we cut the power to the forward galley, not to be alarmed with the emergency vehicles that will be waiting for us on the ground.
The way the crew made the announcements before we landed about stowing everything and keeping aisles cleared was very eerie. We land and they turn off the seatbelt sign. Then proceed to yell at people for standing up and going into the overhead bins. After an hour they say we are waiting for buses to depane and once we get back to the terminal they will have food for us and figure out plan B. We waited another hour to get off the plane. So 4 hours from when we took off. At no point did they offer us water or snacks.
We get into the terminal and the flight keep on getting pushed back till the next morning.
When you called, since we took off , no one would help with new flights till original flight was cancelled.
Paris didn't have hotel space for the airline to book everyone , so they said you are on your own we will give you a taxi voucher to get to the hotel you find on your own. No vouchers for dinner or breakfast. Nothing.
Taxi vouchers was a mess. Only good thing that came out of the time we waited was i called the airline and got us on a direct flight home. My husband flew to a different part of France that morning for work, so it was just me and my girls.
Luckily on Wednesday everything in went smoothly except for the time to get our luggage.
6/18 7 minutes 3 miles walked
6/19 7 minutes 3.5 miles
