Our family's Disney vibe

You asked me how we do Disneyland. Ok, here it is! Let me preface this by saying that this is by no means a comprehensive guide on how to do Disney. There are entire Disney subcultures, books, and blogs and insta’s dedicated to just that. It’s a big topic that honestly involves some trial and error and learning by doing to figure out what your family’s personal Disney vibe really is. 

Instead, these are my best tips specific to Disneyland, CA on what we love and always make sure to do when we visit! I’ve also included personal highlights of the trip for both Hermione and Portia. 

In this guide I share our family’s Disney pro tips on:

  • Lighting Lane Passes, yay, or nay?

  • How to do a “Rope Drop Day”

  • What to wear

  • Where to stay & what to eat if you’re plant-based

  • How to make sit down restaurant reservations in the parks

  • The experiences our family loves and much more…
