    I don't know. I seem to remember that the reason we drive on the left is to do with Jousting, but I could be making that up. Can anyone else confirm this?!!!

    I'm going in January allegedly, but it's not booked yet. I'll be paying for it next week when I get paid!

    We'll most likely stay at Pierre et Vacances which is a complex of self catering apartments that has one of those Good Neighbor kind of deals with Disney. They have free shuttles and can be booked through Disney, but also through a lot of discount hotel sites which is cheaper.

    We'll either get the Channel Tunnel (Eurostar) or drive, don't know yet. My AP runs out at the end of Jan so I'll definitely be back by then!!!

    And to help my family have fun, and to know where the nearest restrooms are, that's cool too!!!

Before that first trip I was a proper mess. I couldn't sleep, I was getting the shakes. Everything!!!
