Not everyone has the luxury of the time we had at the parks, so it might be useful for those on short time frames to see which things they … Continue reading
Grizzly Peak Airfield at Disney California Adventure Park
Earlier this year Disney California Adventure Park re-imagined the old Condor Flats area into the new Grizzly Peak Airfield. I was looking back through my old photos of Disneyland to show you before and after and couldn’t find any of this area.

The return of the Hatbox Ghost
When Disneyland’s Haunted Mansion attraction first opened in 1969, one of the effects was the Hatbox Ghost.

However he remained in the Disney fandom as a beloved, favourite character. … Continue reading

One of the key things I recommend, especially when travelling with children, is in the months leading up to your trip, watch some of those Disney movies you haven’t seen. At Disneyland many of the attractions are based around story and theme. This usually comes directly from a movie. So here is my … Continue reading

Menus at Hong Kong Disneyland
The food we tried at Hong Kong Disneyland was by far the best I’ve had in any theme park, if you like Asian food that is – Indian, Thai, Chinese, Indonesian, Japanese, its all represented. Western food was also available so if you want a burger and fries, you can get that too but you … Continue reading
