Re: First trip to Disneyland!
Well where to start I have gone to Disneyland twice and I love it.......I actually just came back from DL Aug 26 and I stayed 17 days. The first time I went was 2002 during Christmas and I love christmas and having the chance to do it once in DL was enough because the crowds are much larger during x-mas than during the summer. Also given I live in Calgary Canada and we are not quite used to 100-110 temps for days on end it actually wasn't that bad. We stayed in the Red Roof inn the first time ...I will not stay again........this time we stayed @ the Best Western Stovall which is on Disneyland Dr. its still a bit of a walk but no big deal we just cut through the California hotel to get to down town disney. Just so you know you actually can cut through past the pool to get right into California adventure with out walking all the way down to the main entrance. I love going so much that we are planning to go down again summer 2009 for a month. the only thing that I regret not doing is staying at the DL hotels so before the kids get to old I am planning on doing is spending the extra money and staying at the disneyland hotel we are going to do 10 days there. just so I don't go on and on ask any questions you like and I can try and answer them the best I can....these are a few other things I also went to medieval times dinner theatre( I highly recommend going too..... also upgrade to the best package so you get front row my kids loved it) Do not do knotts soak city water park( stick to knotts berry farm) and universal studios is a must do. In San diego Sea word is always great and so was the zoo next time I am doing the animal adverture park instead so we can say we have done both.
