captain_slinkyRequested Disneyland tips, hints and a special Scavenger Hunt for my niece, Hannah, who will be in Disneyland starting on Monday :)
CLOSURES: The following rides will not be available to you, as they are closed for refurbishment on the dates indicated.
LAST CHANCE: The following attractions will be going away soon, never to be seen again - either in this location/form, or just gone completely. This will be your last chance to experience these things, always good for bragging rights to the young 'uns later in life!
LIMITED TIME ONLY: These are the fun seasonal activities that will be available to you while you are there. Even listing the stuff that I know you would never do without a lot of peer pressure just because it's nice to at least know it's available :)
According to the crowd forecasts based on historical data, you're going to pretty much have the entire park to yourself - as soon as the school year starts, September Disneyland becomes a virtual "Ghost Town", especially during the day (before school lets out)! According to folks who were in Disneyland and DCA all this past week, it was pretty much every ride was a walk-on experience - even the Radiator Springs Racers, which normally has a wait time of an HOUR, was down to 15 minutes at the most!
UP NEXT: SCAVENGER HUNT! But first I need to go do some chores :)
