Celebrating 20 Years of Disneyland Magic

While Disneyland is celebrating its 55th Anniversary this year, when I arrive at the Happiest Place on Earth in two short weeks, I have my own milestone to celebrate.  This trip will mark 20 years of visiting Disneyland for me!  It may seem like a silly thing to keep track of, but it means the [...]

Disneyland 2010 – The Great D23 Escape

Well, with airline tickets booked, hotel reservations made, and Disney tickets in hand, I finally feel like my fall trip to Disneyland is a reality. When D23 announced that they wouldn’t be holding an Expo event this year, I was pretty disappointed, but when I found out that they would be hosting a special “Destination [...]

Classic Disneyland Hotel – Fantasy Waters Show

Disneyland execs recently announced that there will be a major “refurb” and update to the pool area at the Disneyland Hotel.  That’s okay, I guess.  I mean I love the Neverland Pool with its projection of Tinker Bell into the water at night and Captain Hook’s ship sitting in the center.  And, heck, I still [...]

Fantasmic Five Friday!

It’s Fantasmic Five Friday and it’s a countdown to Disneyland! We made our dining reservations this week… that always seems to make things more real Sure, it’s not qute the ritual that obtaining ADRs from Disney World seems to be, but it’s still a lot of fun! As I am typing this, there are only [...]

Planning for Disneyland… Countdown to September!

Every year I know that I will plan a great trip to Disneyland, but every year seems to hold a different “theme” for the vacation.  This year I explored lots of opportunities to head to the Happiest Place on Earth, but when Disney Twenty Three evolved into a fan club with its own Disney Expo, I decided [...]
