    Best DLR lunch on a budget

    I second the Plaza Inn chicken recommendation. Last time I ordered double green beans, no mashed potatoes, and it was more than plenty for two adults to share. We were quite full, didn't feel deprived at all.

    JANUARY 2012 Check In! Let's Start Planning!

    We actually leave tomorrow too! We decided to extend our stay, so we'll be in the park on Jan 4-5. I guess that makes our trip Jan 3-6?

    How late can you go in and still have a good day?

    My kids are still asleep. We had a long drive from San Francisco to Anaheim yesterday and no one's quite ready to run out the door. Obviously rope drop's not happening. ;) My youngest has said that she wants to make sure we ride the teacups, the Dumbo ride, and the carousel -- all...

    Thanksgiving, Christmas or MLK?

    I'm not sure that I'd agree with the folks who are saying that Thanksgiving isn't bad crowd-wise. We've been there on Thanksgiving before, and it was IN-SANE. I would say Christmas and Thanksgiving are equally crowded.

    We're in the car right now! I'm so excited! Only 5 or so more hours till we get to our hotel! So, what time does Downtown Disney close tonight, including the restaurants?

    Let's Play "The Next Poster"...Disneyland style!

    On the way in... I still get mixed up as to the most efficient way to get to each area. TNP leaves all their pins at home for each visit to a Disney park.

    Do the parks have Halloween themed souvenir mugs (other than the ones you get with the demitasse desserts) in October like the winter themed ones you can find in December?

    Christmas Day dining options

    Other than the menu, do they do anything special for Christmas? Does Goofy show up in a Christmas sweater or dressed as Santa, anything like that? Special photo backdrop? Etc?

    Christmas Day dining options

    I don't have an answer for you, but I am also interested in hearing the responses. I've heard that Goofy's Kitchen is a lot of fun on Christmas Day and their menu for the day looks awesome, but I haven't experienced that place on a holiday before. Some have said that Ralph Brennan's Jazz...

    WOC, preferred dinning and getting wet question.

    Totally off topic, but I'm just tickled that HydroGuy answered the question about getting wet. :lmao:

    first visit pin & start of pin collecting?

    Here's what my kids do: The pins they want to keep are worn on one side of the lanyard, the pins they want to trade are worn on the other side. Any pins they want to keep that don't fit on the "keeper" side of the lanyard are left at home or kept in Mom's bag. We actually strip our lanyard...

    We're leaving a week from today!! For those of you who were just in the parks, can you still find Halloween themed pins or Halloween themed ears?

    I could do with your help.

    Is it just the two of you, or will the kids be along?

    I know I can't be the only one...

    I've never seen that part in person, but I couldn't even watch the video of that on YouTube without sobbing! :scared: Is it a permanent part of the fireworks show now? If so, I'm going to be a wreck next weekend when we go!

    A Planning Newbie... Suggestions/Help, please!

    I second the recommendation for the Minnie & Friends character breakfast, especially since she wants to meet Minnie Mouse! How are you getting from the airport to the hotel? Are you renting a car or taking a shuttle (either the Disneyland hotel shuttle or something like Super Shuttle)? If...
