Let's Talk Some Trash

Have you looked round the lands as your walked through and notice something interesting? Every land has a trash can designed withing the theme. You can tell what land you are in based on the trash can design. Next time you are walking through Disneyland or Disney's California Adventure, take a look around. Below are a few found in Disneyland.



Also notice most trash cans are accompanied by a recycle can. Whenever you can, do your part and recycle.

Popcorn Buckets

There is something amazingly delicious about the popcorn from Disneyland. Its perfectly popped with the right amount of butter and salt. Oh so yummy!

Even better is you can purchase a popcorn bucket. Sure they cost around $12 but they are always adorable and make a great souvenir that I use the entire trip.

I purchase a bucket the first day and every trip to purchase more popcorn I purchase the typical serving and dump into my bucket. That means I get to keep my popcorn safe while on rides.

I don't usually buy more than 1 but I found 2 different buckets this past trip - Lightening McQueen and R2-D2.

Star Gazing

I love to gaze at the stars. I really love spotting them in the crowd. You guessed it! I am not talking about the twinkling stars in the sky. I am talking about the 2 legged kind. I was totally star struck when I seen Kevin Costner walk by while enjoying the atmosphere at the Mad T Party in Disney's California Adventure.

I am not usually the one to take their picture because they are trying to enjoy their visit just like I am. But come on! This is a big time movie star! He's been a favorite since I seen American Flyers way way back in the 80's. Yes I know, I just aged myself considerably but its Kevin Costner!

I do love how he was just like any of us. No glitz except for the VIP guide but we spotted him walking around without the guide just like the average person. Unless you were paying attention many didn't notice him (those who didn't notice him totally lucked out!)

As you can see in the picture he knew I was taking it and didn't seem to mind. I didn't rush his family and intrude for an autograph. At the point I would have been wrong in my opinion. I just wanted my picture and I was done.

Disneyland Fountains



I love the fountains found around the Disneyland Resort. I do find them under appreciated though. Next time you visit the Disneyland Resort, take a moment to appreciate their beauty and splendor. Here are the 2 found in Toontown that I find the most fun.

Packing Tip - Pack Light

Everyone wants to look and feel fabulous but that doesn't mean 10 pieces of luggage for a 3 day trip. An easy way to do this is roll your clothes instead of fold. Sounds weird to many I know. This really does save space. Saving space means lesser luggage and you may find you can even get away with strictly carry-on luggage.

When repacking for your trip home roll your dirty clothes. Do not just stuff them. Packing different between arriving and departing will result in less space and more hassle getting that suitcase closed.

Carsland Buttons

During our recent trip to the Disneyland Resort we visited the brand new Carsland at Disney's California Adventure. Let me say WOW! You have to see it for yourself to truly appreciate and understand how amazing Carsland is.

A fun benefit was collecting the Carsland buttons. These are only found in Carsland from the cast members in the shops and sometimes the cast members walking around. Most will make you answer Cars trivia correctly or even general Disney questions.

There are a total of 6 buttons to find and collect. Sadly I could not find one of them. Everyone was out so that button will have to wait until my next trip or until I can find someone willing to find me one on their next trip.
