This is the final part of the TR. Changing gears big time, we’re going to a narrative of the three proper days of sightseeing outside the Disney parks that we got in. I made sure to jam it absolutely full of stuff though. And yes, AMUSEMENT CONTENT. So enjoy.

After acquiring our multizone passes at the Disneyland train station for €41 apiece, we headed straight to La Defense. Those on the ECO trip may remember this as the rough area where two of the Ibis hotels were located, and the Grande Arch is an imposing edifice. Along with it is a large shopping area, movie theater, a carousel (new for the holiday season, I believe), and a still being constructed Christmas village. We considered the run up to the top of the Arch, but decided the cost wasn’t worth it to us on such an overcast and misty day. There was some solid picture taking though in the area. From there, we made the short run to the Les Sablons station and walked to Jardin D’Acclimation.
