Disneyland Guru

Do you think it's worth it to go to the 24 hour day at disneyland if I no longer have a pass? Or should I just wait for a WAY less crowded day to truly enjoy the park?

If you are able to go early and feel you’ll still enjoy it with large amounts of crowds then go for it, If not then wait for a less crowded day. If you go to Disneyland all the time this might be a way to experience something new. If you don’t and want to get more in then wait.

How can you dine at Club 33?? I thought you had to be a member!

You do, or know a member I just thought that those who want to go (if they get a chance) should know its not really about the food.

Sadly, Walt Disney never lived to dine at Club 33. It was completed just a few months after his death. Around the time of Disneyland’s 50th Anniversary, the Club had a painting commissioned of Walt dining at the restaurant. The painting now hangs in the restaurant, and features Walt at a window table, with the Mark Twain Riverboat outside, sipping a cup of coffee as he reads the paper. It is truly a moving piece of art.

I cannot fully stress how important it is to view this restaurant as an experience and not a meal. If you’re considering dining at Club 33 and you don’t really care about Disney history, don’t.

From above the world of “Cars” comes “Disney’s Planes,” an action-packed 3D animated comedy adventure featuring Dusty (voice of Dane Cook), a plane with dreams of competing as a high-flying air racer. But Dusty’s not exactly built for racing—and he happens to be afraid of heights. So he turns to a seasoned naval aviator who helps Dusty qualify to take the defending champ of the race circuit. Dusty’s courage is put to the ultimate test as he aims to reach heights he never dreamed possible, giving a spellbound world the inspiration to soar. “Disney’s Planes” takes off in theaters in 3D on Aug. 9, 2013, and will be presented in Disney Digital 3D™ in select theaters.
