my husband says he didn't have as much fun at disneyland as i told him it would be. doesnt look like he didn't have fun to me. he is the one in the cowboys jersey.
I'd like to know what he's like when he's really having fun! - verolly319.8 #540 5-13-13 10:42AMLike(3) Reply

Question for those that have brought small children to the park. I'm bringing my 15 month old son for the first time and i was wondering if you get your children that young the toddler meal or a kids meal? Are the toddler meals a decent s More...
The toddler meals are decent. I still get those for my five year old. However there are so many yummy things at the park we tend to graze or share meals. - waltfan191.7 #1764 4-10-13 2:27PMLike Reply
I would share my food like from Plaza Inn and get double mashed . The plate is a good size ! Or I take uncrustables like for lunch . - jmza4243.4 #31532 4-10-13 2:30PMLike Reply
When I take my 8 year old sister she usually oreders off the children's menu, but we graze throughout the day. Plaza Inn's portions are super generous! I would suggest going there. - RichardCM26.4 #4652 4-10-13 3:11PMLike Reply
My 2 year old did well with the toddler meal. I also packed apple snacks and yogurt in an ice chest with juice. He tended to sleep during meal times, so he was good with snacking and breakfast and a bigger dinner. - DLlovingMommy27238.0 #1160 4-10-13 5:05PMLike Reply
In 10 days I will be making my way to the happiest place on earth. I'm taking my son and husband on their first trip to Disneyland. I really hope they enjoy it as much as I have over the years.
Have a great time, they're going to love it. - MightyWhitey648.3 #170 4-9-13 9:26AMLike Reply
Really want to take my son on autopia when we go in about two weeks. i just got back from his 15 month checkup and doctor says he is 32 inches. yeah!! Hopefully Disneyland agrees.
Ride Heights are listed on most attractions in the wait time section. - vincentchase645.9 #172 4-2-13 2:34PMLike Reply

Nice little article about the Disneyland railroad on the blog this morning. http://disneyparks.disney.go.com/blog/2013/04/meet-the-steam-engines-of-the-disneyland-railroad-c-k-holliday/
How cool! I love trains and we travel by rail whenever we can! Have a great trip and visit!!! Walt loved trains and some joke that DL was built so he could play with his Cottonwood Pacific railroad! The DL railroad was once an official spur of the Santa Fe Railway! What a great way to travel to DL!!! - Boundin428.1 #299 3-31-13 1:39AMLike Reply
I just found out that the Matterhorn will be closed for 4 of the 5 days i will be at Disneyland. I guess i will have to get all of my rides in on one day. bummer!
At least it will be open one day of your trip! 😃👍 So many times we have posts were their favorite is closed the entire time. 🗻Enjoy your Matterhorn Marathon day!! (Take some Advil 😉) - Sweet_Irish_Cream2707.0 #19 3-13-13 12:45PMLike Reply
I have a quick question. can you still upgrade your 5 day tickets to 6 day tickets at the park. If you can is it a flat rate or if we got our tickets from a military base for $260 will we have to pay the upgrade price and extra $30 to get More...
I don't believe they have a 6-day pass anymore. I had planned to purchase those nearly a year ago for my family, but with the price increase they also did away with the 6-day pass! Isn't the Military price of. 3-day pass $99? Can you purchase two of those per person to use? Or maybe they limit how many you can buy. Good luck! Hope it works out for you. - meridafan1099.7 #74 3-13-13 8:42AMLike Reply
It's 125 for 3 day passes. 3 people in my party have 2 of those each. you can only purchase 6 total. The rest of us only have 5 day passes. It was actually cheaper for the 6 day people. I heard that you could still upgrade even though they don't offer 6 days anymore as a normal ticket but i didn't know if it was true. - rachelelizabeth 147.7 #2365 3-13-13 8:55AM
How Often is the lilly belle running. I will be at Disneyland for 5 days at the end of April. do you think i have a good chance of catching it running?
It varies on the weather and if they use the train with the Lillie belle. And as far as I'm told they only offer I believe 3 tour rides a day. My best bet is to go immediately as soon as the park opens and talk to one of the train conductors to see if the train is running and if they have a spot open - CM_SmS1291447.1 #283 2-28-13 8:26AMLike Reply
To add to this, you have to go to the station at Main Street. Unfortunately it's not running now because they have that station closed but I'm sure it will be opened by April. - MrsSchnooks 713.5 #142 2-28-13 8:29AM
Yeah i know you have to go first thing in the morning i was just wondering if weather permits do they have it connected or is it only connected like once a week. - rachelelizabeth 147.7 #2365 2-28-13 8:50AM
Even if it is running, you may not be able to ride it. I asked right after rope drop if I could ride it and was given a curt "No". Can anyone tell me if asking one of the train loading CMs is different than asking a conductor? - JenGwen323379.4 #363 2-28-13 9:26AMLike Reply
If there is someone inside the Main St station , ask them, which is usually a person that loads people on and off the train - Villescas8 592.9 #189 2-28-13 9:41AM
I've heard during the refurb, you need to ask at Tomorrowland Station, but have yet to hear if anyone other than Club 33 guests have gotten on there. - HasAnyoneSeenMyGlassSlipper 346.0 #434 2-28-13 11:18AM
Anyone can ride the LillyBelle, not just Club 33 guests. I've been told it doesn't operate in the rain (to protect the carpet inside)! - NikkiMickey1654.8 #47 2-28-13 11:23AMLike Reply
I've been told by others on here that CMs aren't letting others on during the refurb, just Club 33 guests, but I don't know if anyone's asked at Tomorrowland Station. - HasAnyoneSeenMyGlassSlipper 346.0 #434 2-28-13 11:28AM

Thank you, John Madden. Little advise, use the search engine next time you have news to post. This has been announced earlier and with a ton of more awesome information about it, and you can actually check it out yourself if you'd like to read more about it! Thank you!
