We've been to Aquatica on two separate trips, once in May and once in July. Both times we visited the park twice during the week we were there. We never had trouble finding free lounge chairs. In July we got there right at the park opening and were able to get all of our seats under umbrellas...

Thank you for posting this, and your update! We are going on Monday 10/18 and I just went to print out my tickets and found the website no longer working! I knew I should have printed them when I got the link months ago, but I knew we wouldn't go until late in the year and didn't want to risk...

You are so close! :cheer2: For parades, we always just grab a seat on the curb along Main Street or at either end of it (depending on where we happen to be at the moment) about 45 minutes before the parade is due to start. Some people start to sit an hour before, some people manage to squeeze...

I see you already got good directions, but I happen to have a map in front of me also - if you look at the rockets on the map in Tomorrowland, just to the right of them there is a Mickey hand designating "Disney Characters" - it's right in that area (you do enter from the Matterhorn side...

We loved the tortilla factory - of course my kids are 7, 6, and 4 and they LOVE tortillas, so it was really fun for them to see the process. We went through the bread factory also. In the first room my dd dropped her sample, so dh took her to ask for a new one and everyone in our group got...

I don't believe it. The weather is beautiful here, I've got my whole house opened up letting in the fresh warm air. I watched the weather report last night and they said there is a chance of rain at the end of NEXT week, but it should be sunny and in the high 70's this weekend! It is getting...

Funny, I was just reading about this on Snopes a couple days ago - it's actually not a true story - the Matterhorn was built in 1959, but the city of Anaheim didn't have building height restrictions until the 1970's. There IS a basketball court, but it was put in by CMs to pass the time when...

As far as I know it is pretty hard to get in there unless you know someone, so that is kind of a cool opportunity. I don't know how child friendly it is, I suppose it depends on how well behaved your kids are... consider it an upscale restaurant. We are probably going in March for the first time...

ITA! We had 3 for Big Thunder Mountain and decided we weren't going to use them so we handed them to 3 teenaged girls that were just getting into the 45 minute line - they were so excited. It was one of the best parts of the day - to see their faces! I saved a few from BLAB that we didn't go...

Yes, we had parking validated at California Pizza Kitchen and Cheesecake Factory.

Yes, once I figured out what they were I thought the balloons were so cute. The Tinkerbell one is the one they just took down - I took this a couple weeks ago... Yes, the lights were VERY bright! But it was a really cool effect! Alyson

We were there yesterday. It was super windy outside the park, but I didn't really notice it inside. Not to say it wasn't windy, I guess it could have been, but not enough that I noticed it. It was DRY though, we all had chapped lips by the end of the day! Alyson

Totally!! :)

We went yesterday for MIL's birthday. I tried to register her on Thursday when we decided to go, but it said since it was within 48 hours we couldn't register. So I called guest services and they said it is fine, just bring valid id with birthdate to the ticket window - registering just saves a...

No parades for a while, but the fireworks will be going on 1/17 - I checked the schedule since we'll be there that day! Alyson

I guess it might depend on the day, but we were there yesterday, at the gates right at opening. We pretty much went straight to Pixie Hollow (or we'd be hearing about it all day from oldest dd!). Watch out for the shooting water - if you see the ground is wet, steer clear. The water shoots over...

We were there yesterday and it is not walled off anymore. The flowers need to bloom a little more to fill in the balloons - it took me a minute to figure out what they were supposed to be!

Our kids tried pin trading for the first time a couple weeks ago at DL and it was great. All of the CMs were fantastic. One even told one of the kids they were trading in a Hidden Mickey pin and were they sure they wanted to trade it (my kids are pretty much clueless about the different sets and...

You've had lots of great responses. One thing I didn't see mentioned was the baby center. I haven't been in it, but a friend of mine just recently told me about it and I wish I'd known when our kids were younger. I guess they have rocking chairs for feeding moms, microwaves, small toilets for...

That is hilarious :rotfl: :rotfl:
