by lovestalgia July 2, 2018

Pixar Pier is now open at Disney California Adventures! Along with new attractions, food, and merchandise there are so many AMAZING Instagrammable Walls at Pixar Pier!! I’m sure you’ve seen many pictures of the pier in the past few weeks. Today I wanted to share with you a few of my favorite photo spots!

Entrance to Pixar Pier

The Pixar Pier sign is such an beautiful backdrop for pictures. You can take a picture as you enter the pier or as you exit to get the “Adventure Is Out There” signage. If you come at rope drop, you can take advantage of an empty pier. But even with people on the pier, your pictures will still look amazing because this sign is so colorful!

Raise your hands if you like to go through the drive-thru when you have your kids in the car with you? Or perhaps you rush into the restaurant and use one of the restaurant self ordering system kiosks to place your order quickly and efficiently without having to join a queue. Raise your hand again if you love the convenience of services like Instacart or Amazon Dash to make life easier! Well, now there’s mobile ordering at Disneyland through the Disneyland app available at over 20 food and beverage locations at Disneyland and Disney California Adventure Park!

It’s Halloween Time at Disney California Adventure Park

by lovestalgia September 29, 2017

As fans of Disneyland, we absolutely love the holiday season because of the festive decorations, new foods, and seasonal offerings that Disneyland and Disney California Adventure has to offer! Visiting here was one of the first things I did after moving into an apartment here in California. Of course, I read my tenant rights at https://www.american-apartment-owners-association.org/landlord-tenant-laws/california/ first! This Halloween is no different as Disneyland Resorts celebrates Halloween at both Disneyland and Disney California Adventure. You will be so excited to visit since it’s Halloween time at Disney California Adventure, plus, if you really want to get into the full spirit of Halloween, you can even choose to dress up in the book of life la muerte (the death) costume! Who doesn’t love Halloween, especially when you’re at Disneyland?

For those who purchase tickets to Mickey’s Halloween Party, you are allowed entrance to BOTH parks. My friends over at Magic Kingdom Mamas has tons of information about the Halloween Party! So be sure to check out their amazing blog which is chock full of information to help make your trips to Disneyland Resort so much easier!
