Hi all,
Planning my second trip to Disneyland... The last time my wife and I went, there was no California Adventure... We're from Australia so it's a bit of a long trip
First Question: Trying to pick a hotel... Looking at the Anabella or the Shearton Park (aka Coast Anaheim)... Basically want something that is classed as moderate rather than budget... Within easy walking distance of both parks (and preferable Downtown Disney too)... Has a transport option in case it's too hot to walk back Either has it's own breakfast facility or something very close by... Preferably also allow free or cheap car parking as we have a car for a few days... Price is always an issue but it's low on the list...
Second Question: We will be there from 21st August 2006 onwards... How much time would we need in each park? Just two big kids, my wife and I, no real kids... We will want to go on every ride and see every show at least once... At this stage this is our plan... Arrive 21st around 13:00 and have lunch and have a look around Downtown Disney etc (basically get our bearings)... If there is anything going on in one of the parks that night then we'll go in and do that... 22nd all day / night at Magic Kingdom... 23rd all day / night California Adventure... 24th Time to revisit one or both parks if necessary... Do you think this is enough / too much time to see everything?
Third Question: Are the parks still open late at that time of year?
Fourth Question: Would the various night time shows, ie Electric Parade, Fireworks, be running at that time of year?
[EDIT] Sorry Fifth Question: Can anyone recommend any private car transfers between LAX and Anaheim?
Thanks everyone in advance for your help
