Is Super Bowl Sunday the least busy day to visit the Happiest Place on Earth?

My boys are map people. They get that from their mother. They are also big Disney fans, and they get that from both of us. Their two worlds collide when we visit Disneyland. The minute they are in the gate they both grab a map, unfold it, which is more or less a permanent state for said map (despite numerous efforts to the contrary), and start guiding us around the park-imagine taking a vacation with ...

This summer, millions of people will walk through the gates of Disneyland and Disney California Adventure Park. Some will hyper-focused on the rides, while others (like me) will be intent on eating and shopping their way through Main Street.

A day spent at Disneyland or, for that matter, DisneyWorld is a day spent surrendering yourself to a barrage of Disney branding. It is to be expected; after all, if you didn't want to have this much Mickey Mouse crammed all up in your grille, you should've gone somewhere else. I'm sure Knott's Berry Farm would love the patronage. So it shouldn't be surprising that, when introducing new live ...

Toddlers and preschoolers can be challenging travel companions, but travel destinations like Disneyland are made for them. I've never been a parent to wait until a certain age to travel with my kids anywhere, and there was no way I was going to miss out on the magic of Disney when my kids believed in it the most (and kids are free until they turn 3 at Disney). Consequently, I've been to Disneyland ...

A day at Disneyland is usually fun in the sun thanks to Southern California's reputation for year-round sunshine - unless you happen to show up at the theme park on one of the 23 days when it rains each year on average in Anaheim.

The return of parade floats along Main Street U.S.A. is another sign that Disneyland is slowly but surely beginning to reintroduce more live entertainment sidelined by the extended coronavirus closure of the Anaheim theme park.
