One Last, Magical Parade ......

It's almost time for our little intrepid Disney adventurer to return to the welcoming arms of his family's ample bosom. It goes without saying that we've really missed him even though we've video called almost every night.

Sooooooo, this morning he bid a fond farewell to the tangible and palpable hustle and bustle and upgraded room .......

....... of his Newport Bay Hotel ......

....... and the lake he's looked down upon from the window of his room during his more wistful moments!

Then he took a last nostalgic wander through .......

....... and lingering gaze at Sleeping Beauty's Castle, followed by a final bittersweet queue and ride embracing the delights of Phantom Manor, Small World and  Crush's Coaster. 

...... before the final meal of his trip at the Agrabah Cafe. Saying that he thought they'd saved the best 'till last, as he just couldn't get enough of the spicy sausages and couscous .......

..... or it's exotic and magical decor splendours, which he was sure Darrell would very much appreciate too.

Then it was time to find a prime position from which to view his very last Disney parade, he, we are assured, gave it his all, even though there were a few tears and stifled sniffs.

Then, it was time to finally pack his Mickey ears away and travel back to his original Val d'Europe Aparthotel for a last night dans Paris before flying home!
