Big Thunderous Indigestion

Disney Restroom

I don’t know if I’ve mentioned this:  I love Disneyland Paris.

Disneyland Entrance

What’s not to love?

And, I love Frontierland.  So, I especially love Disneyland Paris’ Frontierland.  Set in the Old West town of Thunder Mesa, every bit of Frontierland fits into the theme: that of a gold mining town founded by an entrepreneur who lives in a mansion haunted by his own daughter while a riverboat takes scenic trips around that town (deep breath).  Oh yeah, and restrooms.

Frontierland

Welcome to Thunder Mesa!

There are three restrooms in Frontierland: one outside the entrance:

Disney Restroom

Man with gun and phone. Guess it’s a restroom.

One at Phantom Manor:

Ooh, free water and wheelchair!

And one across from the Wildest Ride in the French Countryside/Wilderness:

The gun is now a walking stick, I think.

Big Thunder Mountain, you might know, has a rich tapestry of history with Disney parks.  A version of it exists in every single Magic Kingdom, though they are all a bit different.  France’s version is in fact totally different, as you load on land, take the train under the Rivers of the West, and ride wild on the island.  Yes, in place of Tom Sawyer’s Island are the steppes of the Mighty Big Thunder.

This place means business.

But we’re not here to talk about rides.  We’re here to talk about interesting French food and the interesting things it does to a person.

Walt's Restaurant

How about a Foie Gras Cheeseburger from Walt’s and a roller coaster ride for your stomach?

Lucky for you, there are restrooms everywhere!  Big Thunder Mountain is a high traffic area, so Big Thunder’s restroom is equally high traffic.

Big Thunder Mountain Railroad

Pay no attention to the five minute wait. It’s high traffic I tell you!

But, that doesn’t necessarily mean you should skip it!  Theme is everything at Disneyland Paris. This place blends in so nicely, you’d think Indians erected it right before the town was overrun and they were forced out.

Frontierland Station

Now boarding, all the Indians bound for Tomorrowland.

But, if theming is not for you, and you are more about utility than aesthetics, then get out of Disneyland Paris.  In fact, get out of Paris altogether, you uncultured scumbag.  Or, just use the restroom along the walkway to Frontierland.

California Grill

Then dine on some veal hearts on your way out.
