Versailles
It was quite an adventure to figure out the trains, but we made it to the palace of Versailles in the end. First we stood in line for like an hour to get a ticket for Ash (I got in for free because I'm 18-25 year old EU citizen), and then another hour and a half to get into the palace. It was a loooong wait but worth it in the end!

Disneyland Paris
Went to Disneyland. Was like being 6 years old again.
It's Disneyland, there has to be a parade. I was actually surprised how much I liked it!
There was a Star Wars ride. I was very exited. And it delivered! It was soooo much fun! I know, I am a huge geek..
Even the line to the ride was really cool. There was a spaceship and R2-D2 and C-3PO!!
I added a video as well that shows what it was like a bit better! It exceeded all my expectations! Just wow.

The Adventure Island
So basically, this was a pirate island, with a Pirates of the Caribbean ride. I love Pirates. I loved the ride.
The light show and fireworks
At 11pm there was this absolutely amazing light show and fireworks. The photos do it no justice.
I added a video as well that shows what it was like a bit better! It exceeded all my expectations! Just wow.
Nantes
Next stop on our adventure through France was Nantes. I really fell in love with that city! It is like the 6th biggest city in France but it felt really cozy and it was very easy to get around.
Les Machines de l’île is an unprecedented artistic project. Born from the imaginations of François Delarozière and Pierre Orefice, it is a blend of the invented worlds of Jules Verne, the mechanical universe of Leonardo da Vinci, and the industrial history of Nantes, on the exceptional site of the former shipyards.
That is a straight description from the website Check it its a cool website but basically its just an awesome place that has all these amazing gadgets! I felt like such a child in there! Don't have that many photos, but you'll get the main idea!
But the main thing is the Great Elephant. It is this absolutely massive 4-storey (12 meters) high mechanic elephant. It weighs 48,4 tons and can fit up to 50 passangers. We naturally had to get a ride as well. It was absolutely fantastic!
Here is a video as well! Its not by me, but I thought that it really shows the size of that thing better than the photos.
