We are currently in Disneyland Paris and I am not too impressed so far.
The heat is a problem (rides close down) and they also curtail character meetups. Hit 37C yesterday which was sweltering due to little foliage, lots of people, and the use of cement for construction (radiates heat).
Meals (character dining and normal table ones) are pretty chaotic affairs. My wife was a bit appalled at how disorganised some meals were (Table de Lumiere specially).
Hotels seem ok, but it takes a long time to organise things between asking for something (concierge), and it actually being setup (heat I think is causing problems as well with resourcing).
Don’t know if Disney is better run in CA/FL, but over in Europe I would avoid DLP during July/Aug due to the heat, as they are clearly not set up for it. Experience would probably be much improved when temps are 25C or below at DLP.
Night-time show was ok as temps were reasonable

love Aruba. Our 1st choice for beach vacation. Very friendly and safe. Easy taxi access. Good restaurants.

Went to Aruba once (in 1972). Loved its low key vibe but maybe it has changed. Weather is reliable.
