    DLR, ECV and Genie+

    Maybe I asked this wrong. I think I am asking about lightening lanes and ECV. Do I need to pay the extra money ?

    DLR, ECV and Genie+

    Hi there, planning my first trip to DLR since Genie+ launched. Does anyone know how that works with ECVs and the non-accessible queues at Disneyland? I am wondering if I need to spend the extra money or if it is redundant with the accessibility return times. . Thanks

    What do you do for Breakfast at Disneyland?

    Hi all, What is your current method of getting breakfast at DLR? We usually grab Starbucks but I have heard their lines are super long, both inside the parks and in Downtown Disney. I prefer not to eat at the hotel because I am generally not a fan of hotel breakfasts. Any other suggestions...

    Hi there, Has anyone been to Disneyland recently on an ECV? I am wondering how they are handling the ADA queues that go in through the exits during social distancing. Thanks in advance!

    ART is free until the end of May

    @bwvBound where were the Art busses picking up when you saw them? From the pics I saw it looked like the bus loading area was being used as an extended queue for bag check. Did I misinterpret the pics?

    Disneyland experts - Do I expect too much?

    So many good comments and tips here. I will just add one silly one. My kids got me into this - when staying at the GCH take advantage of it's proximity one night and ride GRR multiple times at the end of the night. The lines are so short at that time you may even get your own raft. You get...

    ECV through Peter Pan queue?

    If I remember correctly, the CMs have a wheelchair out front of the Peter Pan queue that you can borrow. Park your ECV, transfer to the wheelchair and then return it when you come out of the ride.

    Recommendation for a guide book?

    Unofficial Guide to Disneyland. I think you also get a subscription to Touringplans.com with your purchase. Both the book and the site are great resources.

    **January 2018 Check-in Thread**

    Well I am 28 days out from our planned departure but the trip is now up in the air. I planned it when I did because my kids have a random teacher work day=3 day weekend so I thought great! Now the kids (DD 16 and DS 14) are not really wanting to go because of all of the ride closures and the...

    Ideas for special thing to do at DL for my senior mom who has never been to Disneyland?

    Just wanted to weigh in and let you know that when I took my mom a couple of years ago she really enjoyed WOC but had a hard time standing the whole time. sounds like the Dessert package is a good option for that. Also, mom preferred DCA to DL because she felt it was less crowded and she could...

    Keto / low carb diet at Disneyland?

    I just found this great thread. Since I am on a keto diet and going to the parks in late January I wanted to bump this in the list to see if there are any others out there with more suggestions. Thanks to all who have chimed in so far!

    Pics from the park today - 10-11-17

    Back when the Nemo Subs first opened we hit rope drop one morning. We ended up fast-walking to Nemo but were passed by a number of runners. We were the last folks on the first sub and the Cast Member, during the opening spiel, asked how everyone's morning jog was!

    Longshot, but... Does the Little Red Wagon cook up gluten free corn dogs?

    I just figured out my lactose intolerance in 2015. At that time, I tried to order a veggie burger at Smokejumpers in DCA but wanted to know if there was dairy in it. A chef actually came out from the kitchen and found me to discuss my menu options. They were much more accommodating than I...

    Someone planning on gate-crashing our holiday (what would u do)

    OP - I would help your DH out with his upcoming conversation with FIL (because he really needs to reach out) and offer to plan another trip somewhere with extended family (ie, FIL) another time. The other trip may not be to Disneyland but maybe just a modest weekend getaway so all of the...

    **January 2018 Check-in Thread**

    I got an email with a discount code to Disney World yesterday and had about 2 hours of fun seeing if i could shift my January trip from DLR to WDW. Wouldn't that be fun seeing as no one else in my family has ever been to WDW?! But, at the end of the day adding airfare and a couple of days onto...

    how did you choose your username for the dis?

    When I was first signing up my kids were little and when I would bathe my daughter I would tell her to make "Mermaid Hair" when I wanted her to lie down and rinse the shampoo out of her hair. I thought it sounded neat so I chose that. My hair is long and blond but I would not call it mermaid hair!
