My First Disneyland Trip – November 2018

All great tips, and I will add Blue Bayou is a must do!!! Also, I would check into a good neighbor hotel and rent a car from the airport, due to FREE parking at some of these hotels. Although if you don’t plan on driving much, staying on property is pretty cool!
We enjoyed visiting Santa Monica Pier. The beaches in Cali are huge! I couldn’t believe how huge they were. Definitely worth a visit.
If you are a Price is Right fan, and you have a car, the CBS studio isn’t that far from DL. We actually attended a taping and it was so much fun. I highly recommend this!
Keep us posted in your plans! I will chime in with any suggestions to help you in your planning.

Forgot to mention that there is a pretty good Mexican quick service in Downtown Disney. It’s the quick service side of Tortilla Joe’s. We eat there the night before races. I basically create a bowl with rice, beans, meat, salsa’s, etc! It’s very reasonably priced and pretty tasty!

Yes to this. Also, Ralph Brennan is really good if you like New Orleans style food. I don’t want to say Cajun because not necessarily all of it is. I ADORE the BBQ Shrimp and Grits. Omg. My mouth is watering just thinking about it.

I might be going to DL in summer 2019, as a graduation trip with my oldest, he needs to get his butt in gear and graduate first.
How hot/busy is it during the week, end of July early August? Probably the worst time ever right?

Temps in the summer are HOOOOOOT. So tank tops and shorts.

I LOVE the shells one and the buzz/woody ones!

I wonder if it’s like Florida hot? Probably not as humid?
