Disneyland Tips

-Download the MouseWait app to avoid spending your entire day in line. -If you're celebrating anything special (like a birthday or anniversary, or even your first Disney visit), get yourself a free button at Guest Services. It's a cute keepsake and cast members will help you celebrate throughout the day. -Hit Adventureland and Frontierland first as they are usually the least crowded areas of the park in the morning. -If it's chilly outside, bring some cheap ponchos so the weather doesn't stop you from enjoying the wet rides like Splash Mountain or Grizzly Rapids. -Specific questions?
