My sister has an annual pass for Disneyland and she was going to drop into the park today. Turns out nearly every date in December is “full”. You can still buy normal tickets on the park website though. She has the most expensive one too. This feels like it defeats the purpose of an annual pass? I understand there’s some blackout dates but this feels excessive….

I am trying to track down a toy, I’d like to get as a gift, or at least something that looks like the real one: My father wrote an autobiography and he talked about a “replica civil war cannon with genuine plastic wheels and the 2” brass, spring-fired barrel that could fire wooden matched several feet”. He then says that it was his most precious toy and that he wishes he still had it. I’d like to get him one, or something that looks enough like the original. He is in his 70s now, so I am assuming the trip would have been in the 1950-1960s? He noted it was from the Frontierland gift shop. I’ve scoured google but can only find the guns. Does anyone remember these or have pictures??

Damn, I guess everyone else had the same idea.

Since we're only a day away... Get your guesses in now.

* I didn't check anyone's schedules to see if they were busy. I know the Rock is supposed to be filming live action Moana and Auli'i might be back in her broadway show. Just going off vibes here.

Look what I just found hiding in the back of one of the bathroom cabinets! Ahhh, the good old days.

Why the hell do the adults stand in the front? Let all the kids see it damn. I'm here in the back with maybe 12 kids running around trying to see anything. Y'all like Disney I get it but stand back and let the younger generations see something.

I was at Disneyland today, as I was getting on the bus to the Toy Story lot, one of the employees said that it was Walt Disney’s birthday. Nothing was said about it in the park. Yes, the big man was born December 5, 1901. Happy heavenly birthday!

As people got off the ride they were shaking out their ponchos and passing them to people in line. We were not prepared and all of us ended up with ponchos.

Just curious.

For anyone interested in the hone made candy canes.

Sweethearts night and 90’s nite, go on sale next week!!

If anyone will be there this weekend, don’t forget that Candlelight is both nights! I will be singing in the Candlelight Choir for the tenth time or so, it’s the most magical day (or weekend, depending on how many shows we are asked to sing) all year! If you don’t know what Candlelight is, check out this link to last years performance:

We don’t know who the celebrity narrator is yet, as we find out on Saturday afternoon. Last year was Brie Larson! Hope to see some of you there on Sunday! I’ll be one of the 400 people in gold choir robes!

He would’ve turned 123 today.

Was trying to ride yesterday and while we were in line they had a "technical malfunction" but while we were leaving we saw medical personal walking up. Did someone get hurt?

Is it just me or are the corn dogs at Little Red Wagon kinda blah lately? I remember the breading being crispy and tasty. The last few visits (including tonight) it’s been kinda soft/soggy and tastes more like grease than cornmeal batter.

Am I alone in this assessment? I use to love these things before 2020. Are the ones in DCA any better?

Did anyone notice they finally added the preshow back in the projector room? I was shocked when it didn’t loop over the same short segment as before.  

Very happy to have caught some of it!

Found this sticker in the Monsters Inc queue around 5:30pm today.

We went to Disneyland for Thanksgiving and we got to do everything we wanted. The CMs were amazing and really made the experience shine. I couldn't have asked for anything better. I was a little skeptical about Fantasmic... but oh my was I wrong. It was a highlight to the whole adventure. Thank you to everyone at the park, guests and CMs. Truely one of a kind experience.
