    Great Moments with Mr. Lincoln..what's going with the long refurb?

    We went to the show with the headphones when my youngest was 4 or 5 and when we came out of theater the cast member complimented my daughter on her haircut. She gasped and her hands flew up to feel her hair. We all burst out laughing.

    September 2024 Check In Thread

    We're going in early September and I can't wait. Hoping to get Oogie Boogie Bash tickets but it will still be fun if we don't get them. We haven't been to Disneyland since late February 2020.

    Los Angeles bus tour

    I should have mentioned it took the entire day (so not a short tour) and we were on a shuttle bus and didn't have a choice of open top or not. They might have shorter tours though.

    Los Angeles bus tour

    My husband and I used Anaheim Tour Company in February 2020 and loved it. They picked us up at the Grand Californian and made other stops too. They dropped us off in Hollywood for several hours and we explored on our own. Then they took us to tour the Warner Bros Studio. I love TV and...

    Family activity? Any suggestions?

    We were at Aulani this week and attended the stargazing activity at the resort. Not sure what the cost for kids is but it was $45/adult. It was overpriced (like many things at Aulani) but my husband and I both enjoyed it. We did have to look through the eyepiece on the telescope (there is a...

    itinerary ideas

    We were at DL at the end of February for a week. We spent 5 days in the parks. Not sure what the park schedules are like in November (or how they'll be if COVID is still an issue) but in February the castle fireworks were only on the weekends (and one night it was too windy to shoot them off)...

    Disneyland Hotels worth the price?

    We decided to splurge and stayed at the GCH in late February. We used the military discount but a standard view room was still $351 on the weeknights and $419 on Friday & Saturday. Even with the discount, it is a steep price to pay for a hotel room. That being said, we had a great time and...

    Grand Californian Super Thread

    Here is the view from (I think) room 5242 (it is above Goofy's Sky School) in late February. It is far from the lobby but we loved having the park right there. We only stayed there 2 nights then moved to a standard view to save money (view was from the entrance side of the hotel) I think we...

    Disneyland Hotel vs. Grand Californian

    We stayed at the GCH for the first time in late February. We had a military discount and it was still ridiculously expensive but we wanted to splurge. We had previously stayed at PPH on two occasions--the last being 10 years ago. The location is wonderful and we really enjoyed the special...

    Adding a 6th day?

    I was there last week. We had 4 day military salute tickets and bought an extra one day ticket because we wanted 5 days in the parks. We would have been fine with just the 4 day tickets. The extra day did allow us to see a few shows we might have missed in DL but other than that, we didn't...

    Airport Proximity to DLR and Ground Transportation Information Superthread (READ FIRST POST FOR OVERVIEW!)

    Just took Karmel from the GC to LAX. The driver called 35 minutes prior to pick up to say he was downstairs waiting. We were prepared to be waiting outside 15 minutes prior to pickup time but we felt really rushed getting called early. When we got to the next pickup stop, those people said...

    DCA Food & Wine 2020 Festival Superthread - Read First Post for Updates - Updated with Full Menus

    I'm waiting for tonight's culinary demo and it's free. Disappointed in the food booths tonight though. 2 of the 3 booths we tried tonight had at least one food item they no longer offered because of being out of ingredients.

    New ‘Magic Happens’ Parade to Premiere on Feb. 28, 2020 at Disneyland Park

    LOL! I liked the costumes but told my daughter after the parade that they reminded me of Hunger Games. I really liked all the colors (even the hair).

    I really enjoyed it. I loved the colors of the costumes and floats and also liked the music.
