We’re at Disney California Adventure where we see a Red Car Trolley making its way down Buena Vista Street. In an attempt to follow it we failed and opted to walk through the Five and Dime gift shop. After taking a look at some of the decorations and merch, we emerge in the Carthay Circle Area and take a look down Buena Vista Street. We then continue down, Hollywood Boulevard getting passed by another Red Car Trolley. Near the Animation Academy building, we find two Trolleys parked next to each other. Needless to say it was a Red Car Trolley morning! Near the end of the street we spot Daisy Duck taking pictures with her fans. We then continue towards the Guardians of the Galaxy Mission Breakout ride. We head deeper into Avengers Campus and spot some fun garland on the Avengers Building. We take a look at the Dr. Strange area and walk out of the entrance to the land walking along side the Spiderman Building. In an effort to mix it up we then turn right and make our way back to Buena Vista and eventually into the Grizzly Peak area of the park. We catch a view of Soarin’ and the Humphry’s gift shop before finding our way towards the Grizzly river Run observation area. From there, we catch a few rafts and then make our way through the land towards the Paradise Gardens area. We walk along the paradise bay taking in the views if the Pixar Pal-a-Round, Incredicoaster and the Golden Zephyr ride. We hear some music in the Viva Navidad area by the Paradise Garden Grill and stop for a listen. We then take the back path onto Pixar Pier where we catch the Green Army Men recruiting toys for Andy’s Toybox. We then stroll down the pier catching the Incredicoaster launches along with the Toy Story Midway Mania ride. We walk across the Pixar Pier bridge and enter San Fransokyo via the big orange bridge and eventually make our way to Cars Land. There we catch postcard views of ornament valley and Radiator Springs. We conclude with a fun sign near the Boudin Bakery Tour. Thank you so much for watching!

Welcome to Disneyland Park! We get a shot of Star Wars Galaxys edge from along the Rivers of America. We then follow the path into Star Wars land and pass the Rise of the Resistance Ride. Just before entering the Marketplace, we spot R2D2 wandering the Black Spire Outpost. We then walk through the market taking a daytime look at the area. We then spot the Millennium Falcon and continue through the land passing by the blue and green milk stand. We take the Fronitierland exit and catch a couple of trains at the Big Thunder Mountain Railroad. I had to try pretty hard to avoid the glare from the sun. We continue deeper into Frontierland and eventually find ourselves at the hub for the end of the Marry Poppins performance with the Pearly Band. Sleeping Beauty Castle makes a great backdrop. Next we enter Tomorrowland and stop by the Tomorrowland Terrace where they have the best music in my opinion. Now for a view of the Finding Nemo Submarines and a duck just chilling! We then take some time to head up the Disneyland Monorail ramp and get an overview of the lagoon and Matterhorn Mountain. A trip to Tomorrowland wouldnt be complete without listening to the sounds of Autopia. To wrap our adventure in the park we head into fantasyland and through Sleeping Beauty Castle. We catch the end of the Snow White Fountain Show and of course find more ducks. We wrap with a stroll down a holiday filled Main Street USA. Thank you so much for watching. Join tomorrow for a trip through Disney California Adventure!

We pick-up along the small world promenade and walk into Fantasyland proper and take a look at the Dumbo ride, along with King Arthur Carrousel and the other rides Disneyland has to offer! We then walk through to the hub making sure to turn around and get a view of the cold (looking) Sleeping Beauty Castle. Next we head into a Christmasy Frontierland and pay our respects to the Halloween Tree. From there we stop by the Dia de los Muertos display and catch the Big Thunder queue looking pretty enticing. We ride Big Thunder Mountain, then head into Star Wars Galaxy’s Edge. We spend some good time making note on the landmarks around like the Millennium Falcon and then exit the land near Critter Country. We walk along the rivers of America and down towards The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh. We then take a look at the Splash Mountain/ Tiana’s Bayou Adventure construction but it’s too dark to really form any opinions of progress. We then take the path up to Haunted Mansion Holiday and then into the New Orleans Square courtyard area. Walking through Tiana’s Palace, we stroll through New Orleans Square Quarters, past Pirates of the Caribbean and into Adventureland. We then head to Main Street USA and make a walk to the Mickey Pumpkin for one last look until next Year.
