Progress Here and There With Refurbishments at the Disneyland Resort


Disneyland Resort, Ticket, Prices, Increase
Although old news, I hadn't "covered" the price increase to the Disneyland Resort.
This may just be me, but I think they should just get rid of So. California and Deluxe Annual Passport.
One would either have the cheap one with block out dates or have one with no block outs.
Maybe that will help with the Resort's crowding problem.
But of course, if it were to take place, it will be at least a year before we would see any type of affect on crowds

It sure could use some updating

Why is this sign all the way to the side where no one can see it.
I knew this sign existed, but I couldn't find it at first.
Do you know why?  Because when I got there, there was a swarm of people just hanging out in front of it.
Why do people always hand out in front of Disneyland signs, especially directional signs, where now one cane see them.  I literally had to wait for about 10 minutes before everyone left the area and I could get a few shots in.

Shouldn't this sign should be placed in a more appropriate spot so people can see and read it

Wow, leaving Disneyland and it's not even noon yet.

As I was heading out, there were multiple trams packed full of Guests waiting to enter the "Happiest Place(s) on Earth"

That will conclude today's pictorial.
Thanks for stopping by and checking it out.

Feel free to leave a comment.

Until Next Time...

  1. Oh man. Looks like I might be eating buttery Darth Vader brains on my next visit.
    Were they giving out free money at Innoventions or something? :)
    Thanks for the update!

  2. It's not just Peter Pan's Flight, ALL of the Fantasyland dark rides are in desperate need of updating. The sooner, the better.

  3. I don't agree that they should get rid of the deluxe passports. For those of us who live out of state, we don't even have the option to buy the So. Cal. Pass. And the premium pass is out of reach when you have to buy for an entire family.

    1. I was just looking at the calendar for the Deluxe, and aside from most Saturdays, Thanksgiving weekend, Christmas and New Years week, the Deluxe still is able to enjoy the Parks for a majority of the year.

      Maybe they could get rid of the Premium pass instead and let the paying Guests (possibly) have a more enjoyable time during the busy holiday seasons
