Yes, we did spend a few hours at the Studios- mostly out of curiosity- and it was more than enough. A second rate park that needs more than Tower of Terror to make it Disney quality. >>> Perfectly said. I have been lucky enough to have visited this park 5 or 6 times and the resort aesthetics are top notch. I am glad you had a chance to visit. I missed the chance to do the ballon ride in the village. It adds to the atmosphere and reminds me of the Disney concept art where you always see a ballon like this floating overhead. I remember standing int he park/village and seeing it float in the sky and I just chuckeled to myself ... "leave it to the French to once again make something PERFECT" I love the French for that.

It was fun going through them picking 10 or 12 for the blog. Maybe I'll post some earlier ones from 1998 later on. I must have a Visionarium one somewhere...

Originally Posted By mstaft Always wanted to stay onsite. We stayed at Hotel Elysee and it was fun, even if it was one metro stop from the resort. I LOVED the balloon ride. Made my wife nervous, but not me. I'll be posting my WDSP photos soon... Do you have any photos of your trip?
