    WDW Fast Pass Question

    Hi, Heading to WDW (but I'm a regular at DL). My question is about fast passes. Do you have to go on the fast pass attraction at WDW during the exact time issued, or is the fast pass really available the rest of the day. In DL, even if your fast pass says to return between 1:00 and 2:00 p.m...

    Metrolink from Riverside to Disneyland -- Help?

    Hi, I'm going to be in Riverside for a couple days and thought I'd take the Metrolink (#91) into Anaheim and go to Disneyland for 8 hours of so. Has anyone ever take this? 1. Any difference between the Riverside/Downtown and Riverside/La Sierra stations (other than locations)? 2. Which...

    DCA Rides - A bit nervous...

    Went to DL/DCA in mid-January. It was the first time my 10-year-old niece went on Screamin'. She was nervous as well, but absolutely loved it. Then we had to sit in the front row over and over. In all, we road the coaster 38 times in 3 days. My suggestion is that you ride it first at night...

    Free Refills?

    Glad to know that the refills are only when dining at the restaurants. Ironically, it was a cm on the phone who mentioned it (when I was getting some Disneyland info). Maybe I misunderstood her. But the Market Street coffee refills on Main Street are a great deal (the only place that does...

    Free Refills?

    I recently heard that Rancho del Zocallo and Spaceport allow free refills throughout the day if you keep your cup. Anyone know if this is true? I already know about keeping the receipt for free coffee refills at the little coffee place on Main Street! Thank, Briajn

    Disneyland and gluten free.

    Hi, Where did you pick up a list of gluten-free foods at DL park? Great idea (my niece has a peanut allergy, and I'll see if they have one for that allergy, too). Thank you!

    Anything new in Downtown Disney?

    Hi, I had heard that Department 56 was cut in half. Has anything gone into the empty other half at all? Thanks, Brian

    102 degrees in DL this Friday?

    We're leaving today for Disneyland. Actually, 102 degrees sounds downright comfortable! Oh, did I mention, I'm from Scottsdale! (Actually, we haven't even hit 100 yet this year, although it's supposed to be about 106 here!) Maybe the crowds will be light!

    Tips for a little extra magic while in DL?

    Just thought I'd start a topic on what guests like to do that always seems to add a little magic to their park visit. My favorite thing began as a fluke a couple years ago while getting on Big Thunder with my niece. As we were ascending the hill, the fireworks show began. I now always make...

    Dining

    Here's a couple things I always get when I visit the park (which is about every other month): 1. Grab a vegetarian (all black bean or black bean/rice) mexicone at the walk-up window at Tortilla Joe's in Downtown Disney. They are a good size and only $3.50 (meat bumps up the price by $3.50...

    Found Peanut-Free Candy in the Park

    Just an FYI if anyone has a child/family member with a peanut allergy. It can be a bit disappointing to see all the candy in the parks; however, most is unavailable for anyone with a peanut allergy. Did find chocolate-covered coconut candy in the World of Disney as well as a few of the other...

    Power Coffee

    They also serve coffee at Haagen Dazs in DTD. And it's the least expensive in the DLR. I believe it's Diedrich, which isn't my favorite, but it does the trick. We bring a coffee pot for the room for the first cup of the day, however. And the cinnamon tea latte at The Market on Main Street...

    Most meal for the Money

    Best two deals at the park: 1. A veggie mexicone (black bean is my choice) is only $3.50 at the outside taqueria at Tortilla Joe's in Downtown Disney (make sure you ask for both red and green salsas). 2. The cinnamon tea latte for only $2.50 (huge size, too) at the Market Street shop on...

    Crowds in Rest of DL DURING Candlelight Proc???

    A few of us have asked about the crowds during the Candlelight Processional this weekend. It sounds like there will be huge crowds on Sat/Sun. Other than the seemingly difficult time getting from one side of the park to the other, do most of the crowds disappear to stand along the parade route...

    High School Musical Merchandise in Parks?

    Is there any High School Musical merchandise anywhere in the parks? My niece loves this show, and I see they have a pep rally each day. I'd love to pick up some stocking stuffers for her. Thank you!

    Crowds 12/1-4 (& Candlelight Processional)???

    I have read that the crowds are insane over Turkey Day and Xmas; however, any comment on crowds the first weekend of December? I also understand that there is the Candlelight Processional during this time. Is this open to everyone (so the crowds will be huge)? Or is it a private event...

    Busy week after Thanskgiving?

    We visited Disneyland the first week of December last year and thought the park would not be too busy. Yikes! It was insane. In fact, they even had to close the park off to guests on two of the days late in the day. One of the cast members told us that it was the busiest Monday she even...

    Computer/Internet Rentals in the DL area?

    Hi, We're heading to CA tomorrow night, with a trip to DL on Sat, Sun, and Monday. I'll be gone from my computer (no laptop) for 5 days and need to check things at least every 3 days. In anyone aware of any places along Katella, Harbor, or Convention Way that offer computer/internet...

    Dining along Katella, Harbor, and Convention Way???

    Hi, Heading to DL this weekend. Anyone have any comments on dining along Harbor, Katella, or the Convention Way area (i.e., hotel restaurants, quick service, ethnic, stands, etc.)? Haven't been to the park in a year, so just wondering if anything new or interesting has opened up in the...
