My heart is breaking seeing all these pics I miss Disneyland so much. So sad. My husband quit is job as cross country truck driver to be home with the family and has not found a local job yet. So who knows when will be able to make it bac More...
I know it's hard not having a job but as I was once an OTR driver I know how important family is and I was out sometimes for months at a time and I missed my wife and kids. Trust me this is for the better. :) - FantasmicallyFantasticDisneyFans15.9 #5653 8-22-12 7:43PMLike(1) Reply

If you don't like your child you switch them at the exit - Villescas8 592.9 #189 5-28-12 7:09PM
But seriously, if you have a child that cannot ride, yu get a pass that allows the other parent go on the ride, then when they exit, the other parent and rider can go on - Villescas8 592.9 #189 5-28-12 7:10PM
For future reference, The Golden Zephyr is closed just before, then during and after the Phineas & Ferb show "hits the street". The area needs to be clear for the show to proceed through the area. - SergZak3125.8 #14 5-28-12 6:52PMLike Reply
Good, another reason for me to hate that show... - shadowgamer 1960.6 #36 5-28-12 6:57PM

I'm in Vancouver, it's 61 and partly sunny. I would rather be there! Put on your sunscreen and drink lots of water! The Animation building is a great place to cool down. - PrincessKristin 776.9 #125 5-28-12 1:01PM

We are from Washington by Seattle we are going to fly. Don't really feel like driving with two young boys. Last month we rented a cottage at long beach it took us almost a hr longer to get there because no one could make a pit stop at the same time. - onbraudway6.8 #8548 4-28-12 12:23AMLike Reply

I suggest you rent a car. If you're not familiar with LA get a navigation system. Traffic in LA and Orange Co. Can be brutal. - kweenofhearts18.1 #5368 4-13-12 1:26AMLike(2) Reply

I have told her how much it means but it doesn't change a thing. I think I only have a small chance to change her mind I just got to find what that one thing would be to change her mind.
