One month away!!! My daughter's boyfriend decided to fly in from Texas to join us for the day at Disneyland. He is a big Disney World fan, but has never been to Disneyland before. I always enjoy going to the parks with people who have never been before.

18 days! Saw that DL hours are 8am-12am and DCA are 8am-10pm. We are planning to be in the parks all 16 hours. There is nothing pressing that we need to ride. Going to let my daughter's boyfriend kind of steer the day as he has never been to DL, only WDW. So I told him he definitely needs to get on rides that are here but not at WDW. So Indiana Jones is at the top of the list at DL for him and Guardians is on his list for DCA.

Have fun! I would also suggest Hyperspace Mountain, as it is different from WDW. I think Matterhorn is Expedition Everest on steroids (and WAY rougher) & Radiator Springs Racers is a Cars-themed Test Track, but more fun! And our Fantasmic has the pirate ship in it!

Matterhorn is going to be closed. Boooo! LOL. My kids were not happy when they saw that. That was always one of their favorites growing up. We will definitely try to get on Space Mountain and RSR. We will probably try to get on all rides (minus Fantasyland rides) during the 16 hours. Probably won't try for Fantastmic. Too much of a hassle right now to try to get a place to view the show. We will probably use that time to get on rides with shorter lines.

FreshBaked recently had a fantasmic viewing tips video - and there is an interesting option. They tape out a large square just in front of Royal Street Veranda seating. Folks start to fill it at 815 or so for the first show. Its above the other crowds along the river, and even the pavement in that square is sloped so that the back can see the front. If there is an option to see the show maybe this could be one where you dont have to camp out - or spend $$ on a dining package.

Thanks for that tip. Just watched the video. I would be alright with watching Fantasmic from that spot. Away from the crowd and then you could hang back while the sea of people disperses.
