Wow, I didn't realize that a lot of the rides at DCA are the same as WDW.
This is not technically accurate. Soarin' is better themed at DCA. Griz Rapids is far better than Kali. Screamin' is unique, a kick, & a must do. ToT is a little better at DS (but very similar). Crush & the Muppets are the same.
Although I have been to WDW a dozen times, I stil have not been on Soarin, so I will make it a point to go on that!
Unfortunately I will only be in Anaheim for a day and a half , so my half day will be our Mickeys trick or treat party night and our full day will be at
Disneyland park.
Assuming you have a 2 day park hopper (& if not why not?).....why wouldn't you "Hop" each day? Most disers Hop each day the 100 yards between DL & DCA during the crowded afternoon. (or when DL starts to get crowded)....& then hop back to DL.....then you could enjoy the dozen or so attractions recommended in all the posts above.
I'm Super excited to check out all the halloween decor and of course the haunted mansion transformed into NBC!!!!!
