I 've never been on the Carousel of Progress, though goodness knows I get the theme song stuck in my head easily enough. In fact, I 've just done it to myself. I did go on America Sings, quite a few times in my childhood. I liked it and was disappointed when it closed. Then for years, that building stood mostly empty-except the Futuristic World of TRON in its upper story, of course. It was taking up valuable real estate, and Disneyland is a surprisingly small park.

While every visit to Disneyland is magical, there 's one pain point we can all agree on: No one likes waiting in exceptionally long lines. On busy days, attraction wait times can reach hours-long numbers, and unless you opt for the paid add-on Genie+ or an Individual Lightning Lane (if one 's available, that is), you 're simply stuck waiting. But if you 're visiting solo, there is a time-saving option: You can use the single rider line. Single rider lines

For Cal State Fullerton students, Disneyland is not a foreign concept. However, saving money while in the parks remains a challenge for most. Although the material goods you acquire throughout your day are instantly gratifying, two crucial players in the Disney lifestyle game are often sidelined: your bank account and your stomach. After paying sometimes over $200 to get in, many feel as if it 's not possible to enrich your inner child while

Regardless of my romantic situation on any given year, I 've never cared much about Valentine 's Day. The whole thing - elaborate gifts, overpriced roses, fancy dinners - always felt so constructed to me. It just never seemed like the outsized expectations that come with a holiday largely manufactured by commercialism could possibly match up to the reality of the night. Which is a long way of saying, I didn 't have much interest in Disneyland 's Sweethearts

As a Disney theme park enthusiast, I think if you'd asked me a couple of weeks ago to list all the attractions I was interested in, past and present, at the very bottom of the list would have been The House of the Future, which stood in Disneyland from 1957 to 1967. It's often given as an example of how desperate Disneyland was to get anything into its early Tomorrowland. Simply a free tour of a "futuristic" house, sponsored by the chemical company
