well, ilvminnie, we didn't get to do a lot in disneyland during our visits there. we did see half of disneyland park on monday the 12th and we saw a little bit of california adventure on the 10th. so, it's going to be hard to tell you what to avoid due to lack of seeing everything.
as for what to recommend, i recommend checking out the following in california adventure: the aladdin musical show (kids will love it and sing along to all of the songs), the california ride (which is like a simulator ride that gives you a feeling like you're on a helicopter ride touring california) and the electric parade. it's hard to say which parade is better; electric parade or spectromagic. they are both outstanding but electric parade is a must see anyway!
disneyland park is sort of similar to disneyworld. some of the things that we saw and did during both visits there you can check out in disneyworld just the same. i will suggest meeting the princesses because they're out and about more in disneyland than they are in disneyworld. so, if you have a little girl who loves the princesses, you'll be able to run into cinderella, snow white, belle, ariel, and sleeping beauty around the castle.
have fun and don't forget to take pictures.
