    New Changes to Rancho Del Zocalo in Disneyland

    Me too! They were really good! I’m not vegetarian, but I prefer to eat lots of veggies and they are hard to come by in the parks!

    LAX --> Grand Cali - Best Way?

    We did Uber in April (2 adults, 3 kids, 1 in a booster we brought). Just took the bus from our terminal (3) to the ride share area- I think called LAX-IT- in Terminal 1. We requested an XL and a minivan was there to pick us up within 10 min. Cost was right around $100 and then tip on top of...

    Getaway today ticket special or Magic Key?

    And good luck on the college decision. I have a senior and it’s brutal! Especially this year with the FAFSA fiasco. It’s like they contracted out to Disney IT…

    A few questions in regards to sending my son and his girlfriend to Disneyland without me

    And don’t keep the room key next to your phone (demagnetizes it or something). 🙄 Reliable room entry was actually a pain in the neck! No fun trudging back to the front desk after a long day in the parks!

    Self Service Fountain Drinks

    Agreed! Tap water in Seattle where I live is amazing. I can’t drink Anaheim’s unless it is ice ice cold or flavored. We are spoiled up here in this corner of the world!

    I know Pym’s test kitchen for sure, too.

    On Site Car Rental

    We rented there on our last day (return at LAX) and it was great. I was a little early and he (Michael Johnson seems familiar) seemed surprised and I got the same “short staffed” sense (but it was no big deal and he was very nice). It is very small and I don’t think they have a lot of inventory...

    🎃 Halfway to Halloween 🎃

    I wouldn’t expect anything from Disney on 4/30 in the parks. But I’ll be celebrating it being closer to Halloween than not! 🎃

    Fishing,accelerating modifying and MEP

    One thing to be careful of- I had a group of 5 and accidentally scanned one MEP twice, so it counted both the LL and the MEP

    What to Drink That Isn't SUGAR?

    We were shocked at how sweet drinks were last visit. We tried a couple of cold brews and just threw them away (and I’ll even drink coke now and then). I just drank water (or wine in DCA! 😃) Disappointed there seems to be no sparkling water anywhere, unless I missed it. That’s a pretty popular...

    Downtown Disney recommendations?

    When we were there last week there were some tables by that lawn/play area that said there were crafts in the afternoon (I think F-Sun). Didn’t go by at those times, it that might be something to check out!

    The Disneyland Hotel Superthread

    I just stayed in a king room and honestly, there is not a lot of extra space. You might be more comfortable in a double queen, even if you’re not using that other bed. My sister was in a double queen and that room was much more spacious.

    Airport Experiences in SoCal

    Oh, thanks for asking. It was fantastic! I don’t normally do just a 2 day, but I was going with my sister (who really isn’t a Disney fan and this trip didn’t change her mind) and her kids, so we knew 2 park days was the limit. My little guy (8) is finally big enough to close down the park. I got...

    Airport Experiences in SoCal

    Adding my 2 cents for those flying into the dreaded LAX. It was great! Arrived Wednesday 6:45p. Took the shuttle to LAX-IT. Uber was less than an hour and $134+ tip. We were drinking fruity drinks at Tangaroa Terrace by 8:45p. Coming back today, we rented a car from Pixar Place and made a...

    Season Of The Force 2024

    Closed down DL last night, ending at Space Mountain. Was so fun to visit Hyperspace Mountain today. It was like magic! New sign and everything. (Thank you nighttime CMs!). And I have to say I prefer Hyperspace Mountain! This coming from a total non-SW fan and Disney traditionalist.

    Does anyone know what happened to Soarin today?

    Around that time last night (7:10) we were joining lightning lane for Incredicoaster and it was similar- long lightning lane up the pier and no one in standby. I asked if it would be better to just go standby and they said “We’re not really letting anyone but LL in.” Line moved fairly swiftly...

    DL in the rain?? Help!

    One of the forecasts shows thunderstorms in the afternoon on Friday. In addition to the normal rain closures- what else closes? Anything else to think about? We will probably head to the hotel for a break if it’s too close! I did just go to REI to get some new rain gear, so hopefully outlaying...

    DL in the rain?? Help!

    Thanks! These are helpful details. I live in Seattle, so have the gear and will bring it. But it is disappointing! I need to start planning Sept/Oct trips (I much prefer the heat to rain). We usually book a CA trip for midwinter or spring break for a dose of sun!
