Riding EVERY ride?

[pdxJolene]

Helloooo everyone! My roommate and I are taking a girls trip to disneyland in just about a month We have decided we'd like to try and ride every ride in DL & CA. We will have 4 day park hoppers (THUR-SUN) We will spend pretty much all day in the parks on Thursday, Friday and Saturday. Sunday our flight leaves LAX at 615, but we will spend as long in the parks as we can! Is this do able? So far our plan is...

Thursday; We will try to do all of Fantasyland and Toontown, plus splash.

Friday; In the AM we will do half of CA and in the afternoon/evening we will head back to DL for Critter Country (Minus splash, were going to try to do that the day before), Fronterland and New Orleans Square. Other than our PS at BB for 830 we will just ride rides! If we have extra time, we may do adventureland as well.

Saturday; In the AM we’ll be at DL and try to do everything in adventureland and tomorrowland. If we do adventureland the night before, it will just be tomorrowland. In the afternoon we'll head back over to CA and do they other half until they close at 9, then back over to DL for anything we've missed so far.

Sunday; Just anything we missed (in both parks) and anything we want to repeat!

Any insight on our plans?

Well, my first reaction is to say that I don't think it will be hard to do! I have done the "every ride" mission, including the train and monorail, in less than three days and that was during a Spring Break period, so I think you should be able to do it! Fantasyland won't take you a full day. Peter Pan and Matterhorn were 30 minutes the day we did this, but Snow White and Pinocchio were walk on, Mr. Toad was 5 minutes, etc. Also, some rides might be down for refurb during that time, so riding "every ride that's open" becomes the goal. I would make sure to utilize FP and not limit yourself to "lands" necessarily. Check out the boards in front and see what has a short line and ride it. What we did was carry around the map and a pen and cross things off as we went. Then, the last day, like you have planned, was for repeats

Glad to hear it is do able! I believe theres only a few rides down while we are there. Thanks for the advice!

Can you get to dl in time for Magic Morning on Thursday? If not save Peter pan and Dumbo for the Sat when you can get there in time for MM. Or if you already did PP on Thursday try and get Nemo in on the MM!

If you get to DL at park open and go directly to Fantasyland, ride Peter Pan first then you could probably finish up Fantasyland in about half an hour. Honestly it's not that hard to ride "everything" if you start first thing in the morning and collect fast passes.I think I've ridden everything.

If only you didn't have dates already! Another disney message board is holding their fabulous and fun Gumball Rally May 1st. They have a list of attractions (it's never *all*, but it's *most*) to ride in ONE day. It's a competition with teams and everything.

You can find their old threads about what the teams did, if you're interested.

But over the course of a few days, with like-minded young adults, it'll be no problem. WE still haven't done everything there is, or even everything we want to, but we're a bit slower and we have a kidlet with us.

I would suggest "RideMax". Read their tips and hints and i would bet you would be able to do all the rides twice in 4 days.

Fantasyland can be a problem! Lines move slow and crowds are common.

For DL I'd ride Space 0early. It can have very long lines and all fastpasses gone by 2pm on even a moderate crowd day.

Subs have long lines very early and no fast pass available.

Short lines for Grizzly Rapids after dark. Just bring a poncho!

Big Thunder normally has a very short line or no line at all the last 30 minutes the park is open even on crowded days.
