Must see attractions/activities at DCA

[AZpharmacist]

Other than the obvious big ticket attractions, what do you love to do or see at DCA?

I just realized there was a whole area of the Animation building (with Beast's library) that I missed on my last trip. I'm wondering if there's any other awesome activity that I'm missing out on.

Feel free to include fav foods/snacks/drinks as well

Beast's Library is one of my favorites. Turtle Talk with Crush, and the entire Animation Building are amazing. We love the Asian Salad in the bread bowl on the Pacific Wharf. Besides the rides, the whole Cars Land area is incredible. Take the time to enjoy the details. Bugs Land is really cute to walk through and enjoy even if you don't do the rides. All the effort to make it look like you are small as a bug is really fun. Oh, and the corn dogs on Paradise Pier!

I loved the Animation Building. I just can't believe I missed Beast's library!

I have yet to try the corn dogs. That's definitely on the list this summer

Beast's Library is one of my favorite areas of the animation building. Does that mean you also missed the Ursula's area where you sing some Disney songs and your voice is in place of the actual actors voices on screen. It's pretty fun! (you can act out a scene or sing! its pretty fun!)

I really like Goofy's water show he does, I think its really cute.

Mickeys Pants Sundae!

The Aladdin show! We stopped going for a few years until DS could sit still for that long and actually enjoy it. He finally saw it earlier this year and is still reciting some of Genie's jokes.

I don't know if my 2 year old can sit through this but I'm going to try this time. We didn't get a chance in December

I know that you can get the sundae at the ice cream parlor in DL, I'm not sure where you would get it in DCA.

Yes, the Animation building is a lot of fun. Turtle Talk with Crush is fun, even without the kids.

I would have said the opposite. The Mickey pants sundaes are definitely at the ice cream place on Buena Vista Street in DCA. I didn't think they were available in DL.

Clarabelles Handscooped Ice Cream

Not to miss is the Cars Land lighting. It happens just after sunset. Listen for " Life is but a Dream" they start by the firehouse and work there way up route 66.
We grab a snack at Flo's and sit at the outside gas pumps just before sunset.
