Disney Wall Murals

Disneyland Resort now consists of two major parks: Disneyland Park and Disneyland’s California Adventure. Downtown Disney, a vivid boardwalk is located adjacent to the theme parks littered with boutique shops and gourmet restaurants for a casual experience. Three resort hotel properties are within walking distance from each venue for convenience. Disneyland is located in Anaheim just off the 5 freeway and is about 30 miles from Los Angeles.

****************Here is a way you can get in for FREE!!!!!

Besides catching a guest on his/ her way out and asking them if you can have their ticket for FREE, you can get one from a cast member! That’s right, each full time cast member (employee of the park) is allowed to give away a few passes a day!

I no longer work full time, only part time, so PLEASE don’t email me and ask me. But if you are lucky, you can catch an employee outside of the gates (trash collectors, etc) and ask them if they would be willing to give you their pass for the day. I think it is only fair to offer them money, but that is up to you. I found the best method to be when someone asked me for my free tickets was to give them one FREE if they would give me something for another one, like $20. These tickets have ZERO value and you CANNOT trade them in for an upgraded ticket. Please keep in mind that we are NOT supposed to be giving away our tickets once we are on the clock, if you happen to catch someone willing to do it make it quick and have your cash on hand. If you already have at least one valid ticket, You can also go into the park and try to find someone who will give you their free passes while your family waits outside of the gates.

Parent's Time-Out at Walt Disney World

So you think a trip to Walt Disney World is one only the kids can enjoy. Well, think again! Here are a few tips for making your vacation to Mickey Mouse Land a memorable one for the whole family.

•Hire a babysitter for an evening alone. If you’re a registered guest of a Disney resort, drop off the kids at one of their child care centers for around $10 per hour, per child. They’ll be given dinner along with classic Disney movies, arts and crafts, and video games. If your child is under 4 or not potty trained, call Kid’s Nite Out at 407-827-5444 for in-room childcare.

• Plan a date at one of Disney’s world-class restaurants. For the height of romance, head to Victoria and Albert’s at Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort. In its intimate, dimly lit dining room you’re served a sumptuous 7-course meal on white linen set with Royal Doulton china and sparking crystal. Or try the California Grill on the 15th floor of Disney’s Contemporary Resort. Here you’ll find an unbeatable panorama of the Magic Kingdom and the Seven Seas Lagoon along with picture-perfect views of the Wishes Fireworks. From pristinely fresh sushi to exceptional New American Cuisine to sensational desserts and an outstanding California wine list, this place has it all.

• Consider springing for two rooms. This will guarantee Mom and Dad some alone time. After the kids are in bed, order in a romantic meal in the privacy of your room.

• Enjoy a bottle of wine in your room or on your balcony. It’s a perfect way to enjoy Disney’s wonderful ambience. The bottled wine selections at the Disney resort shops are a bit sparse, but room service usually offers a nice selection.

• Arrange for a couples massage in a candle-lit room at the Grand Floridian Spa. Or choose the 3-hour Couples Instructional Massage with step-by-step instruction in massage therapy.

• Watch the evening fireworks spectacular from a Magic Kingdom resort. You’ll find the most romantic spot at Disney’s Polynesian Resort where the two of you can relax in a swing or hammock on a sandy white beach.

• Take a Fireworks Cruise from one of the Magic Kingdom or Epcot resorts. Bring along a bottle of champagne, 2 glasses, and enjoy!

• Party down at Disney’s Pleasure Island. It’s New Years every night of the week at this 6-acre playground for adults. Wall-to-wall clubs and a nightly street bash with live entertainment and midnight fireworks make this the party-lover’s choice for nighttime entertainment.

• Spend an evening at Disney’s Boardwalk. Rent a surrey for a spin around Crescent Lake followed by dancing at Atlantic Dance and the Illuminations show from the upstairs balcony.
