Show Notes

What does the WDW veteran and first time traveler to the Disneyland Resort need to know that WDW (younger sister) cannot teach you about the older hotter Sister Disneyland?

Chris and Ryan Bring on some friends of the show Matt FromPA and the “Tweens” Will & Shannon from the Magic Never Ends Podcast http://www.magicneverends.com.

We talk about some of the things that differ between the two Resorts and give you some insight for the trip. We cover Accommodations, Park Touring, Shopping and Dinning.

Enjoy the longest Travelears to date .... not a surprise Will is all hopped up on the Rockstar.

apologies about the mic quality on my end all has bee rectified.

Show Notes

This episode we answer listener Christi’s email question and talk about what to do on a night Disneyland closes early.

Tuesday the 21st is ROUGH! All events, even Downtown Disney, don’t start until Wednesday the 22nd.
Check out how dead the park events are: http://disneyland.disney.go.com/disneyland/en_US/calendar/daily/daily?name=CalendarDailyPage&date=20081021

Some ideas:

- http://www.piratesdinneradventure.com/
Oct. 21st - Showtime is 7:00PM
Pricing

Children 11 and under - $35.95 (+tax)
Infants are free

Anaheim Gardenwalk

Approx. 15 restaurants and eateries including P.F. Chang’s, Bubba Gump’s Shrimp Co. and the Cheesecake Factory
300 Anaheim Bowling and Entertainment Center (with dining options) - http://www.3hundred.com
The Movie Experience 14 including IMAX a.k.a CinemaFusion - seriously… just look at the site. Movie + Alcohol? Mmmhmm http://cinemafusionanaheim.com/

Then of course, there’s always just a classic DTD night with some dining and a movie

Just as extra options for that questions: Main street in Huntington Beach is cool because you have access to the pier, bonfire pits, a bunch of restaurants and a movie theater http://www.stockteam.com/hbpier.html. It probably takes about 20-30 minutes to get there from the local Anaheim area (we could post a Mapquest map on the Wiki to illustrate it). I love the Queen Mary but the freeway travel can be REALLY crappy during the week. Not only that but there are no events at the Queen Mary on Tuesday either… the Paranormal Shipwalk and Investigation Tours only run Thursday, Friday and Sunday nights. Great as an option most nights though

So a list of options pertaining to activities outside of the park in the local area:

Huntington Beach (Pier off of Main Street) - http://www.stockteam.com/hbpier.html
The Grove of Anaheim - http://www.thegroveofanaheim.com/
The Orange County Performing Arts Center - http://www.ocpac.org/home/
The Queen Mary - http://www.queenmary.com
