Happy birthday, Disneyland Paris

Disneyland Paris turns 28 today. (It is in fact younger than me.)

It’s sad to think the park is closed for now and no-one is having a party, but what can ya do. Here’s some of the photos I snapped when I was there for my honeymoon back in 2017. Dave had never been to a Disney park so I decided to take him.

Photos of cities in lockdown

London, taken by Sophie Raworth

Oh, the caption on the bus on that one…

God, it looks so apocalyptic. But I’m glad that sign is there.

New York, from here and here

Los Angeles, from here and here

Yeah, I too thought of that scene from The Walking Dead.

Paris (and a film set there) from here and here

Oakland, from here

God, that’s a striking image.

And Leicester, my home city, from the Leicester Mercury:
