Hello everyone, I just got back from disneyland. and I thought I would fill you in on a brief report being that I was at the park for 7 days. It was my best friends first trip so she had a great time but, my self who has been there this was my 26th visit and my third this year was very disappointed in many things.
June 20 great day, park was pretty slow good first day start to our trip.
June 21 the other 20 people of my family flew in and it started to get really busy. Now my parents are older in there late 50's and 60's and they go to disneyland and fly Walt Disney travel all of the time. They called to confirm there flight that they had booked in January and they said that there tickets were moved and they sat on opposite ends of the plane. Also at the time of booking there trip we knew that the premier would be going on but they never told them that the park was closing early or that pirates opened on a different day. That is my parents favorite ride luckly I got them on the 25th sneak preview but I felt as disney travel's job, they should have informed us some how even if they did not know for sure dates, they could have said well I would wait to book because of different dates and its not like this is there first red carpet premier they could have had some Idea. but anyways other then my familys plane issues it was an ok day except for the heat.
June 22 Great day way hot and very busy but it was way cool to watch them put those bletchers together and everything.
June 23 great day also went to bed way early and did not spend much time in the park because of the premier the next day.
June 24 Ok premier day!!!!! Crazy crazy crazy that is all I can say. My friend got up at 4 and in line at 4:30 and we meet her at 5:00 by the time we could get in line for the front gate we were only like 20 people behind the turn style. The family of 15 in front of us were of a different race and did not speak english well and none of there tickets were activated. So we got stuck and were very lucky to even get a spot on the bars of the red carpet. But we were back by the plaza Inn so we did not get to see all of the stars. We waited there for over 17 hours watched johnny not walk but run by and never even saw orlando. Thank god the person I went to see Kiera came up and talked to us and still did autographs but it was bad. It was way to hot, way to many people and just crazy for us to not even really see them.
June 25 opening for the blue bayou was very cool and then we managed to get on pirates while waiting for lunch which made my dad so excited. the food was beyond wounderful and it was very missed.
June 26 omg opening for pirates was rediculas, we could not even begin to attempt because of the line going out to main street. And I did not experience but heared about the drama of that ride breaking. I am glad I was not on it.
June 27 ok just a little something that I would put out there we were staying at the opposie end of harbor blvd at the Marriot Residence Inn. I greatly recommend that you do not stay at this hotel. My car got was broken into the day before we left and they shattered my window took a portable vhs player, a portable play station, my video camera case, thank God I had my camera, and my $1,200 louis vuitton speedy purse with my louis vuitton wallet and all of my make up and chargers and everything. And when I told them what happened they could have carred less. We were suppose to check out at 11 and the only extended it to noon . my brother in law the beast at 6'7 or 6'8 at almost 300 pounds scared them into extending it to 4 pm but when something like that happens the least you can do is extend the room without a fight. Also we found stuff trailing all along the front and side of the hotel and 4 other cars were attempted break into. They don't have any security cameras anywhere so I lost all of my stuff. They should have cameras of some sort.
Well that was my wonderful/horrible trip of my life. I hope this entertained you all and taught you something. Don't stay at the hotel, make sure to always question disney travel and get up at 3:30 not 4 for a premier.:D
