You’re going to tell me that everyone melts when a child smiles, but where’s the problem? On Friday, June 1st, 300 children aged 3 to 11 from the Secours Populaire humanitarian association and other associations from the East of France got a sneak peek of the new Cars Race Rally and Crush’s Coaster rides. And not only that… they also got to ride on the new East European TGV (French high speed train) high-speed train! As the children come from the East of France, you can see that whoever planned this knew what they were doing.
It was obvious that these kids would cry with joy!

The little sweethearts came from each of the four cities serviced by the new TGV line (Strasbourg, Lorraine, Meuse and Champagne-Ardenne).
Workshops on the train, arrival at the Park at 11 a.m., a festive “Backstage” lunch at the Walt Disney Studios Park, the discovery of the new Disney Cinema Parade and the Motors…Action! Stunt Show Spectacular&req; and a worldwide sneak peek of the two new rides… Disney pulled out all the stops! 
So, it goes without saying that they smiled and even laughed… These kids were more than happy. As for me, well, my heart absolutely melted (like a packet of marshmallows left in your car on a sunny day, to give you a picture!).
In the end, the only problem was that the TGV train left at 5 p.m. and that the children were on it.
