We were there Tuesday through Saturday and also thought the crowds were pleasantly light on the weekdays. Almost everything was walk on or close to it with hardly anything more than 20 minutes (except RSR). This was really nice especially because we had our toddler with us for his first trip to DL.

We're on our way home... :( I'm sorry, I meant to reply when we were there but we were so tired after being at the parks all day and my phone was always dead when we got back so I never stayed awake long enough to see it get charged. So, first off I would stay at the Islander again if we go...

We're checking into the hotel today so I'll reply back when we get there. We're kind of flying blind too and only read the reviews on a couple travel sites but it was the lowest price for the type of room we needed so we're giving it a shot. We do bed bug checks before we bring anything in...

Hey everyone.. Thank you to everyone who responded because you all really helped calm me down and encouraged us to go. And the great news is.. We're on our way! We'll be arriving tonight and tomorrow is our first day. I've definitely got the saline spray going and he's finally accepting that...

Yay!!! I am sooo glad that you got them! DH says that's awesome too. I'm especially glad that the photo properties tip worked... I think in general I'm so glad I joined Dis because of all the help I've received and happy I was able to return some help (since I obviously don't know as much about...

I'm so glad the properties tip worked to at least get you the right time. I seriously hope that it will help get your photos back to you. Hopefully soon.. Like everyone else said, keep us posted!

:thanks: Thanks so much for the reassurance. DS really does seem fine and I guess I just had some of that mom paranoia/over-protectiveness feeling. DH even says that worse case scenario we just hang out in the hotel room because it'd be better to attempt it and take care of him if he for some...

So, I've been thinking about whether or not to cancel our trip this week... DS is nearly 3 and has had a bit of cold the last few days. I was hoping that it would have cleared by today and had decided today would be decision day as to whether or not to go. I've been thinking positively and been...

Tigerlily, your boys are so cute especially clasping the swords together. I'm glad your boys enjoyed it. We might have to skip it this year though since we're also paying for other family. This is DS's first trip so we might wait until the next one when he's a bit older. He also hates...

I am not really familiar with photopass as I've never used it and probably won't for our upcoming trip but I thought I would chime in about your own photo. As long as the picture you took with Tink and your family was with a digital camera it IS time stamped; just not on the actual picture...

DH and I always check for bedbugs as well when we first get to a hotel. I hadn't thought of what Rhonna said about picking up the bedbugs on luggage from the airport or somewhere before you even arrive in the room. We haven't been on a plane in years though but my mother will be arriving late on...

So, has anybody had or seen boys dressed as knights from the BBB? I think that would be so cute for our son and can already hear him telling any princess we meet "Hi, I a knight" with that sheepish grin and thumb pointing to the chest that only a toddler can pull off. Is there something...

We're only 5 days away before our family trip!!! :santa: :yay: So, we have a minor issue. My mother wasn't able to get the full time off for the trip. We are driving up on Monday and spending our first of five days at the parks on Tuesday. My mother will be flying in to meet us on Wednesday...

DS absolutely LOVES this app too. His favorite is definitely Mickey's house where he can watch a lot of the classic Mickey cartoons and Mater's with clips of Mater's Tall Tales. He also likes this short video of the Pirate's Lair on Tom Sawyer's Island which we are hoping to check out because...

Thanks again for all the replies. I had no idea there were that many stores around that did have all/most of the hats. I knew (but forgot) about the mad hatter since I never really went in there because of the crowds. So, do those in Disneyland itself also sell the more CA characters...

Thanks for the reply. DS is almost 3 and about 38" but on the thin side. DH and I are fairly average I think (I'm 125 and size 7/8 while DH is about 170 although who knows after he has his turkey leg and Monte Cristo ;) So, pretty much all the "story" type rides (sorry if there's an official...

How many (if any) rides at Disneyland and California Adventure are there that fit three people? I see on the picture of the dumbo ride that it looks like two adults and a child in one elephant. I've always assumed it would have to be one parent and one child like at carnivals and such. I...

Hi everyone, I tried looking for an answer but haven't found anything so sorry if it's been asked before. So, DH and I have been talking about souvenirs that we are definitely buying (and budgeting for unexpected ones). One thing we are looking at is an ear hat for our son. We planned on...

Thanks everyone for all your responses! They're a really big help. I hadn't even thought about a birth certificate copy so that's a great idea. I think as far as the hotel thing I'm looking way too into it. DH and I don't mind the walk but I'm not sure about my mom and aunt. They get really...

Hi everyone! I've been lurking around for awhile but we are finally confirmed to be going on Dec. 4-9!! It's DH, DS, mom/grandma, aunt, and 2 cousins. We almost had to cancel and were going to go for DS 3rd birthday in Jan but he LOVES all things Christmas (or ChrisChris as he calls it) so we...
