The folks at Disneyland imagineering have put together some incredible ideas to remodel the entrance to California Adventure Theme Park with the look and feel of 1920 Los Angeles, which they will call Buena Vista Street. It will resemble the Los Angeles that Walt first saw when he arrived in California, complete with shops Trolley Cars and more. It is slatted to be complete in 2011. I found the Blue Sky Cellar site that has all the great info about the changes coming to California Adventure Park over the next couple of years. I think the changes will be a wonderful improvement, and can’t wait to see it.
Here the link for more info.

As you know from earlier posts, Disney is in the process of modify Disney’s California Adventure Park. One of the most antisapated construction projects for this writer is Cars Land. Cars Land will include a brand new road race style coaster ride that I can’t wait to ride. But the project is not expected to be complete until 2012. That seems like a long time to have to do the Disney dance, waiting…. waiting…. WAITING. But with all of the new project that are being constructed in the California Adventure Park, the wait will be well worth it. I was able to snag a picture showing the model of the Cars Land being worked on. To see all that is being done go to Blue Sky Cellars

Disneyland’s Haunted Mansion is turning 40 this year, and it’s just as beautiful today as it was on opening day. The Haunted Mansion is one of my favorite attractions at Disneyland. Every time I ride through, I discover something I had not noticed on previous rides. I especially like the Haunted Mansion during the Christmas Holiday make over. It gives you a whole new attraction to experience, and is great fun with unique music and haunting spirits, that can only be seen at this special time of year. So make it a point to say happy anniversary to a great attraction by visiting this year, and be sure to bring your death certificate.

When traveling to Disneyland by car, one thing that we do to make the trip a little easier, is take a long along an ice chest with our favorite juices, soft drinks and even beer. This allows us to have all our favorite drinks and snacks with us. With blue ice it keeps everything cold and all in one place, while protecting the items you have in your suitcase from spills. Then on the return trip you can use the ice chest to transport all of those Disneyland souvenirs and keepsakes safely back home. And if you plan to take home some of those delicious treats from Marceline’s Confectionery for family and friends, just refreeze your blue ice and your good to go. If you want another idea, just freeze some water bottles that you plan to take on your trip, they will keep everything cold and be ready to take to the park for drinking water. Then you can even take those water bottles from your last night in the park,back to the hotel, fill them and freeze them to put back in your ice chest for the return trip home.
