TikTok user @sianapalm recently took her daughter to Disneyland Paris on one specific “mission”: finding Ariel the little mermaid and Disney princess.
This mission was in large part because the TikToker, a Disney enthusiast who resides near Disneyland Paris and is named Ana, had dressed her young daughter in an adorable Flounder costume.

“Floundering” Around Disneyland Paris
During their quest in Disneyland Paris, Ana and her child met Belle, Snow White, and Rapunzel — and asked each Disney princess for help finding Ariel.
When the duo finally found Ariel later in the day, the interaction was incredibly sweet and made the magical mission worthwhile!

Meeting any Disney princess is a treat, and it’s clear from her happy hugs that this child is still enjoying meeting Belle, Snow White, and Rapunzel — but with her Flounder fish costume on, Ariel was the only Disney princess who could really do the job!

Where Is Ariel?
Many other TikTok users were ooh-ing and aah-ing over the little Flounder outfit that the tiny Disneyland Paris Guest was wearing, especially because Flounder’s tail wags back and forth in a very endearing way as the child explores Disneyland Paris.

At the end of the four-part video series, Ana’s daughter finally meets Ariel the little mermaid (in her “dry land” outfit, a bright blue dress) and runs to her enthusiastically.
Ariel instantly recognizes her friend Flounder and embraces her, then invites “Flounder” on a walk through the Disneyland Paris theme park! Take a look at this particularly-adorable interaction in the TikTok video shown below!

A Magical Reunion
Ana and her daughter actually met the same Cast Member (in character as Ariel) later on that day during a parade as well.
Ariel was on a parade float with other Disney princesses like Belle and Snow White, but she instantly recognized the duo from earlier and sent them plenty of extra-magical waves and kisses!
