    DAS & Quiet places

    We like going to GCH Craftsman Grill for a late lunch. It is quiet and you can sit outside amongst the pine trees.

    2024 Summer Virtual Series

    I guess I was thinking only of Disneyland when I was wondering how a Mickey waffle was a snack.

    2024 Summer Virtual Series

    How is a waffle a snack? I thought Mickey pretzel. Totally undecided still and I usually do the Summer Shorts.

    Hotel Choice

    You can go around and take the trams however, it isn’t a shortcut. By the time you go around to get on the trams, you might as well just keep walking and go though DTD. We cut through the parking lots to Security. We actually enjoyed the walk. You could also take the ART in the morning and...

    walking from Best Western Courtesy Inn Hotel

    We stayed at the Springhill Suites on Ball Road and walked Walnut. We then cut through the parking lots after Mickey & Friends parking structure to security at Downtown Disney. We liked it. It was about a 15 minute walk to the turnstiles.

    Candy Cane Inn Room Types

    We stay in a Standard room on the second floor. I like to stay where the stairs are. They are a little smaller rooms but they have a small table and chairs on the balcony/walkway.

    DAS group size

    I have used Genie+ in combination with DAS and it works great. You coordinate DAS with Genie+ times as they don’t expire. Just remember the DAS person has to ride when using DAS.

    Purchase Photopass on property?

    I did this right after they opened and before Genie+. I purchased it at the photo place just to the left of the turnstiles to Disneyland. They were very helpful and it worked great. Keep in mind that you get any photos taken of you during your race.

    Photopass and other things Disneyland is making people do that are very annoying and expensive

    The character meal photos (Plaza Inn with Minnie and Goofy’s Kitchen with Goofy) are included with your meal. They are on your App or downloadable. The sad thing is they no longer come in the cute folder. When DLR opened after Covid and before Genie+, I purchased the $78 week package. We...

    DAS and Parkhopping

    You have to be scanned into the park once. We found that when hopping back to Disneyland from California Adventure, that we could do it. We also were told that if you want to make a return time for a park that you haven’t scanned in yet, that the guest relations umbrella can do that for you.

    Unpopular Opinion - I didn't like Oogie Boogie Bash

    I think we waited for the Sanderson Sisters about a 1/2 hour. Like I said, we lined up during the second parade. We found the lines really calmed down after the second parade. We also skipped Cars Land until we were walking out. You can see everything and do everything on a non OBB night...

    Unpopular Opinion - I didn't like Oogie Boogie Bash

    I went with the understanding that we couldn’t do it all. We focused on the parade, treat trails, and Villian’s Grove. I loved the characters on the treat trails. To me, they were much better than the Mickey’s party at Disneyland where you had to stand in line to see any characters and they...

    I thought Chip & Dale were like the Hat Box ghost. But what do I know.

    Disneyland DAS Advance

    My daughter and I were working on a cross stitch project while we waited. We logged back in and started over. I set a boundary and slightly before my “give up” time, we got connected into the chat. Shirley was wonderful. We even got disconnect a couple of times on the chat. She reconnected...

    Disneyland DAS Advance

    We are within our 30 day window of going to DLR for my daughter’s birthday. We tried to do the video chat on Friday evening and the wait time was too long and I was afraid they would close before they got to us. Logged in again this morning about 10am PST. Everything was fine got a message...

    Savi's Workshop Recent Experiences

    When my daughter flew home with her light saber, she put the black carrier with the blade in a mailing tube. The hilt was wrapped in a sweatshirt in her carryon. We had no problem. Both went in the overhead bins. I have since then ordered her a canvas cover for her light saber. It was...

    Goofy's Kitchen Halloween Reservation

    Goofy’s Kitchen has been weird to get this time around. It has always been late to open up the reservations but usually sometime during the 60th day out. This time it waited until about my 49th or 50th day out. I wanted breakfast and had made my reservations when suddenly it was for the...
