We got a balloon once. Made it past Bakersfield. Not sure how long it could have lasted. LilNinja pulled the light out causing it to deflate. 😕 - MousekaNinja329.1 #473 3-2-13 9:51AMLike Reply
That's great news!! Not about the deflating of yours, but awesome it lived! - FoolishMortal138 234.1 #1179 3-2-13 10:14AM
Ask a CM if you can buy it deflated and take it to your nearest store when you get back into the Valley to have it blown up...the store I work at blows up balloons for 50¢ for a standard size balloon...for Disney size ones I would say they may charge double so $1 to fill it-so check your local stores and see what they charge. And sometimesdpending on the material if it has just deflated you can just refill it too. - yellowtonka237.6 #1133 3-2-13 10:02AMLike Reply

👆Not true. I just renewed today and you don't have to put any money down, but they will increase your installment and charge it within 24 hours. There is a grace period to renew and still get the $20 off after it expires. - bluefairy 627.0 #173 2-11-13 9:36PM
No down payment necessary, but without a down payment you can expect your monthly payment to go up about $5-10. You can renew online or at a ticket booth, if you choose to do it online you will recieve your new pass in the mail in approximately 2 weeks. - Princessana0839.3 #4006 2-11-13 5:57PMLike Reply
Also, your first months payment will be charged when you renew, and your new payments will be around the day you renew. - Princessana08 39.3 #4006 2-11-13 5:59PM
Usually we get a reminder in the mail that tells us to come in and get our $20 off. last year, I renewed a couple of days early so they kept it at the same date that it had been before. - secretagentangel657.3 #158 2-11-13 9:56PMLike Reply

Unfortunately the only way to get into the parks on a blockout day (birthday or not) is buying a Blockout Day Ticket. The current price of that ticket is $70, and can only be purchased from the ticket booths near the front gates of the parks (No skipping ticket lines on this one since you can't buy online). In any case, I hope you have a happy birthday :) Perhaps you can ask for that $70 as a birthday present? ;) - JRDrummer_CM789.4 #117 12-28-12 8:35AMLike Reply

According to the disneyland website. You can get a block out park hopper for $70 at the main entrance ticket booths. You will need your blocked out AP and the the blocked out hopper ticket to get in to the parks. Any other question look at FAQ under AP Holders on the disneyland website. - Clover1838182.1 #1831 12-28-12 8:36AMLike Reply

The grads have all day park hopper tickets. Then when the parks close to the public, the grads get to stay extra hours, I think till 3 am. They have wristbands on that allows them to stay in the parks. I was there on Thursday and the crowds were light, and got more crowded around 8. - Villescas8(V8)589.1 #184 5-12-12 6:23PMLike Reply
