    "Tangled" show
    Tamara P.

    Disneyland's Royal Theatre is an open-air tent that holds little plays for everyone to enjoy. On our two most recent visits to the Disneyland Park we were able to catch two shows of "Tangled" featuring Rapunzel and Eugene (Flynn Rider). And who can forget the evil Mother Gothel. I felt that the show was well done highlighting all of the memorable moments from the storyline, so the actors and actresses alone deserve five stars. The low rating is for the way the ushers handled the crowd once the show ended. Once we stepped out of the tent and turned around, we had noticed that Rapunzel had come out in the front from the side of the stage to greet the guests who were fortunate to still be slowly exiting the theater. My daughter wanted to meet her as well, so we had asked the usher if we could step back in to meet her, but were told that we couldn't enter once we had exited. We had just exited and were maybe three steps out the of the theater. That is ridiculous. Instead we were told to go to the part of Fantasyland near the King Arthur's Carousel and Dumbo ride and wait in line for her at her tower. So we immediately dashed across the park to her tower to only find that the wait would be another forty-five minutes. So we waited. Fifteen minutes into our wait they closed off the back of the line saying that Rapunzel needed to head back to do her next show. When we finally made it in to "meet" Rapunzel, she looked rather frazzled and annoyed forcing a quick smile for the cameras with our daughter, not even engaging with us. First off, we had just come from the show and this Rapunzel looked nothing like the "Rapunzel" character in the show. Second, why doesn't Disney hire another girl to play Rapunzel so the girls don't have to rush back and forth and be so grumpy?! A not so happy experience in supposedly the happiest place on earth.

    Date of visit: August 21, 2016 In our quest to ride/watch every attraction at Disneyland/DCA, we realized we hadn't been to the Royal Theatre yet! As it was the afternoon, we got there in time to watch the second showing of Tangled as told by storytellers Mr. Smythe and Mr. Jones and with the help of Rapunzel and Flynn/Eugene. (Beauty and the Beast is in the mornings.) The cast members do a pretty good job of retelling the movies through song and comedy with the assistance of props. For a one hour show, this wasn't too bad! It's an outdoor theater, though, so get here early for prime seating (we were seated at the back), and on occasional evenings, the Royal Theatre becomes a big band stage, complete with swing dancing. Definitely worth stopping by to see at night before the fireworks.

    One day during our winter break, we were at Disneyland from 830am until 1030pm. Unlike every other time I'd visited, I did not set foot in Tomorrowland or ride any roller coasters. Instead I was chasing down princesses with my daughter. Going to Disneyland as a parent for the first time provides an entirely different perspective. It's less about running around the park, checking off things to do, and much more about watching your kid's eyes light up as storybook characters come to life. While my wife was staking out a patch of sidewalk for the parade, my daughter and I walked around Fantasyland. We saw Belle and ran straight over to the line that had formed next to her. I couldn't believe our luck, my daughter was actually wearing her Beauty and the Beast shirt. Unfortunately, well before we got to the front of the line, she left, to be replaced by Merida. We talked to the royal attendant and he told us that if we came back to watch the Beauty and the Beast show at the Royal Theater, Bell might come out to meet guests afterwards. So we watched the parade (Elsa and Anna made an appearance!) and hurried back to get seats. The show was surprisingly entertaining, even for parents - it's basically two energetic, silly guys and a princess telling a story with some fun props and an occasional pop culture reference. It was a pleasant break from the crowds and the craziness. As the show ended, we stayed inside the theater. Finally Belle returned and we got a cute photo with her, along with her autograph. It definitely made me feel accomplished as a dad.

    Great storybook shows! Think of it as a fast forward version of the movies. Beauty and the Beast was the first show I watched here and I really enjoyed it. Singing and comedy all mixed into one. Frozen was just as good. Same singers and piano player that performed for Beauty, performed Frozen. The costume changes are crazy! I do not know how the can pull this off so perfectly. Now you have to get a fastpass ticket in order to sit inside to watch the show. The ticket booth is located right in front of the castle by the Walt statue is. Awesome and fun!

    Had a great time at Knott's Berry Farm with my family! We went on a pretty hot day, so we were…read moredefinitely prepared for the heat, but overall we had a really enjoyable experience. One thing that surprised me was that the wait times for the rides weren't as bad as I expected, especially considering how busy the park can get. We were able to get on quite a few rides without spending the entire day standing in line, which made the visit much more enjoyable. There's a good mix of rides and attractions for both kids and adults, so everyone in the family was able to find something they enjoyed. We also loved walking around the park and taking in the atmosphere. Even with the heat, there were plenty of places to take a break and cool down. Overall, it was a fun family day and a great way to spend time together. The heat was probably the biggest challenge, but it didn't take away from the experience. We had a lot of fun and would definitely come back again!

    If I could give no stars I would. We (AIE Tours at Knotts…read moreand I) have been in contact several times in the last 6 months, as I had tried to schedule bringing my senior citizens to Independence Hall for a visit. Initially I was told that they needed to pay a $55 park entry to have guided tours. That seemed silly for 85+ year olds since they would not be entering the park, so I was then told that self-guided tours were available. This is where it gets wonky. And where I'm honestly super angry. I scheduled for two of our communities to bring 23 people to Independence Hall for a self-guided tour yesterday (Thursday, September 10th). I contacted the tour department by phone on Wednesday, stating that I was bringing said seniors to an unguided tour the following day and asked if there was a better place for us to unload. We had a long conversation about where we could unload the residents that was closer to Independence Hall (BTW there is nothing for them). Imagine my frustration when we get to the parking lot and the attendant tell us that Independence Hall is closed for renovations (which apparently is not true). Are you freaking kidding me? We drove 45 minutes and my sister community drove even longer from RPV to come to see Independence Hall. Do you not think it would have been wise for the representative to let us know that it was closed? I researched it while I was having lunch with the residents at the at the restaurant. (Imagine driving 45 minutes just to eat lunch...) I could be wrong but NO WHERE on your site does it say that Independence Hall is closed. I finally googled it when I got back to work and found out from a 3rd party that this began September 2 and that going forward it is only open Saturdays and Sundays 'for budget reasons'. I have been an activity director at this high end community for 21 years. in that time, we have gone all over SoCAL from San Diego to Simi Valley and everywhere in between. I have NEVER has such a massive fail. You guys have screwed all of this up more than I can understand. We will not be back, and you just lost a long time fan of Knotts. Sidenote: Mrs. Knotts Chicken restaurant was delish and the staff was amazing. Still not worth 90 minutes round trip.

    I haven't been to Disney California Adventure since it first opened in 2001, and a LOT has changed…read morein 25 years! I took a solo trip and had an excellent day despite a few hiccups along the way. The first thing I did was book it over to the Guardians of the Galaxy: Mission BREAKOUT ride. I got incredibly lucky. The Lightning Lane reservations were basically booked until almost 9 PM, and the standby wait was around 90 minutes. The Cast Member working customer service noticed I was by myself and worked a little Disney Magic to get me on. I really appreciated that! Easily one of the best rides in the park. I loved the reimagining of the old Tower of Terror and had an absolute blast. I tried to make it up front to meet Oswald, but his meet and greet suddenly disappeared from the app. I really wanted to meet him, but it's all good. I'll have to catch him on my next visit to California. The exact same thing happened with Black Panther. My top two character meet and greets canceled on me! That's probably my biggest complaint of the day, but let's be real, it's definitely a #FirstWorldProblem. Radiator Springs Racers had about a 70-minute wait, and you have to purchase an Individual Lightning Lane if you want to skip the regular line. Thankfully, the Single Rider line was only about 20 minutes, so I threw my Galaxy Buds in and thugged it out. Worth it! Cars Land itself is also incredibly immersive and beautifully designed. Walking around actually made me want to go back and watch the Cars movies again. Next, I kicked it over to Pixar Pier and rode the Incredicoaster. Easily one of my favorite rides between both Disneyland parks. It is so much fun from the moment you're strapped in and launched off to the sound of Dash's voice. 10/10. Loved it! Definitely grab a Lightning Lane because that line gets long FAST. Afterward, I saw Baymax was doing a meet and greet and hopped in line literally right before he went on a 15-minute break. After waiting, Baymax came back out with Hiro! I've never met Hiro at Disney before and honestly didn't even know he did meet and greets, so that was a really nice surprise. Then I went to ride Toy Story Midway Mania, but it broke down for the day after I had already waited about 20 minutes in line. Y'all, my luck was fluctuating UP and down all day. Haha. I wrapped up the day with Goofy's Sky School and WEB SLINGERS: A Spider-Man Adventure. Sky School broke down too, but thankfully it came back up pretty quickly. I had a Lightning Lane and was already near the front. That being said, I probably would not ride it again. It was way too rickety for me, and my head kept knocking against the back of the seat. WEB SLINGERS was basically the same experience I had at Disneyland Paris, except this time it was in English, so I could actually understand the backstory of the ride! If you like Marvel and/or video games, it's definitely a must ride. Come to think of it, this ride broke down for a little while too. The Disney mechanics were OFF that day! Thankfully, these days everybody has earbuds and smartphones, so the extended waits didn't bother me too much. I ended the day with seeing Goofy and Mickey and some souvenir shopping for family and friends. Something about a Disney visit isn't complete to me without seeing Mickey Mouse! He was as energetic and effervescent as ever. He loved my Oswald the Rabbitt shirt. :) All in all, I had a great day and would absolutely come back again. There are still rides I didn't get to experience, and hopefully next time I can finally catch the Oswald and Black Panther meet and greets I missed. California Adventure has seriously stepped its game up since I first visited as a kid in 2001. Twenty-five years later, it feels like an entirely different park, and I had a great time exploring it all over again.
