We live in SoCal and it's still a big event for the kids to go to Disneyland.
DH's company has a special meeting there every 2 year, so we try to take full advantage of that. The meeting usually finishes around 10am, so we get into the park around 10:30am.
This year, since the kids are older (4 and 6), I'm hoping that we can get to stay past 6pm and see the fireworks.
I have a few questions for Disneyland experts.
1. I read that one needs to find a spot near the castle for a better viewing of the fireworks. Where is a good spot to see the fireworks? What time do we need to go there to ensure a good spot?
2. What is there to do, besides hanging out at a restaurant, between 6pm-9:30pm when the kids are tired, before the fireworks?
3. I read that to see the Fantasmic show, it costs between $50+ pp. I thought all Disneyland shows are free. Isn't this a free show? Where is a good place to see this show besides the dessert places?
4. I would like to create a ride/show plan for my kids so we can maximize our time spent at disneyland. Any suggestions would be helpful. The Disneyland website is driving me crazy. It doesn't have a function that will separate out the rides for kids between the Disneyland Rides and the CA Adventure Rides.
Does anyone have a list of rides appropriate for the younger kids?
Thanks so much.
