I couldn’t imagine in a country with such good food and wine they would want a Starbucks.
One doesn’t usually buy a ticket to France with plans to visit Disney World or Starbucks. But for French tourists wanting a taste of America and American tourists wanting a taste of home, the Seattle-based coffee chain has just opened France’s latest branch at Disney Village Paris. For France’s 50th Starbucks, the company has pulled out all the stops to make this one really special.
This new store is Starbucks’ first truly eco-responsible outlet. In a décor marrying the authenticity of noble and natural materials, caffeine addicts can sip responsibly, knowing that their White Mocha Frappucino likely came from a fair trade farm. But they’ll also enjoy the aesthetics of the Disney branch, as metal, wood, glass, and stone come together to create a haven of zenitude.

I love Pixar..It’s like everything they release is phenomenal. Here are a few video shorts I found on you tube.
So when we goto Disneyworld I made up this spreadsheet that I use to enter in all our information in. I know I am a nerd…Most parents know that nice places like Coral Reef restaurant is not going to work with a little ones, basically you have to visit Character meals for breakfast and dinner. The food isnt to bad for Disney and to be able to get photos without having to wait in line in the park is nice.
Hope you enjoy this spreadsheet, use it, modify it, do whatever you like.

Robert Chester Double, 51, of New York, faces charges of lewd and lascivious molestation after he pulled the bikini top off a 15-year-old girl and touched her chest on July 3, the sheriff’s report shows. Double was booked into the Orange County Jail and is being held on a $5,000 bond.
The victim told deputies that Double crashed into her several times in the wave pool and touched parts of her body. She complained to her father, who advised security. A sheriff’s sergeant watched on a security monitor as Double tried touching other young female guests in the same way.
Investigators said five park employees, who were interviewed after Double’s arrest, had witnessed the suspect attempting to remove the bikini tops off other girls. The report does not clarify if Disney employees immediately alerted park officials or security after witnessing the alleged crimes.
The Disney spokeswoman did not immediately return calls to the Orlando Sentinel.
The Typhoon Lagoon incident is the third sexual-related case involving a young victim at an Orlando water park in less than a month. A man raped a 14-year-old girl at Wet ‘n Wild, off International Drive, on June 21. Orlando police have not made an arrest in that case.
Orange County sheriff’s deputies on June 27 arrested Joshua Fuentes, 23, of Kissimmee, on charges of molestation. Investigators are accusing Fuentes of inappropriately touching three girls, ages 12, 13 and 14 at SeaWorld’s Aquatica.
Fuentes bonded out of jail after paying $5,300 in bail, records show.

Two monorail trains smashed into each other at Walt Disney World in Orlando early Sunday morning, killing one conductor and injuring the other.
A Walt Disney World spokesman said the crash happened at about 2 a.m. Sunday on the monorail’s last run of the day. The trains were carrying only five passengers and two employees, none of whom were hurt.
“Two trains collided at the ticket and transportation center. One driver on one train is dead and the other driver from the second train was taken to the hospital.
The crash on the Epcot line in the Magic Kingdom section of the theme park marked the first monorail death there in its 38 years of running.
According to Disney, the theme park runs 12 monorail trains, each with 6 cars traveling the 14.7 miles of elevated rail.
On a typical day, more than 150,000 guests ride the monorail.
