Hi, guys! So the boyfriend and I are planning our first ever trip to Disneyland (and also the rest of California, but honestly we're totally going for Disneyland). We're looking at a mid January 2018 trip to avoid the crowds, and currently we're thinking of three day park-hoppers with a walking distance hotel (maybe Disney owned, but undecided). We're not big on resorts; we're of the mindset that if we pay to have theme park tickets we're gonna be in the theme parks as much as possible.
We've also resigned ourselves to the fact that there is absolutely no way that we'll get everything done and seen, no matter how long we stay. Because of this, we're each going to pick two attractions/shows per park that are absolute must-do's, and will prioritize getting to those above all else, and using the more crowded times of day to just take in the ambiance instead of running from line to line in the hopes of getting on everything. Our plan was to primarily do Day 1 at Disneyland, 2 at California Adventure, and use 3 as a crazy back and forth day to catch our favorites again. With that said, do you think 3 days is enough to *do* Disneyland, especially as a first timer who won't be back for a while?
Thanks!
