Just ordered my ticket to the D23 Expo! My email conformation said the ticket should be delivered within a month of the Expo.

Does anyone here have advice about going to Disneyland? Any advice on hotels? I've been looking on the Disneyland section here and on a certain other forum I'm a member of that rhymes with nice hat ;), but I'm also interested to hear any advice you guys might have.
We always stay a Best Western suites anaheim. It's right across the tree but it feels up quickly so call now.

I've been to DL a couple times and am going again a week before the expo. What kind of advice are you looking for? Restaurant? Hotel? I've stayed at the Best WEstern Stovall's Inn (staying there again in August), the Howard Johnson, and the Best WEstern Anaheim Inn, all were good stays. My favorite restaurants are the Plaza Inn, Café Orleans, and Carthay Circle theater. Disneyland is really a special park, I can't wait to see it dolled up for the 60th!

Special indeed!
Been 5 times. First visited in '68 at the age of 6, but, haven't been back since '10.
We really need to fix that...! :)

Really? I didn't know that the mini-golf was included with the WP Fun and more add-on. I had this option on my tickets and I think I might have had about 5 times I could use either the water parks or DisneyQuest, but I didn't know the mini-golf was included. That's good to know for next time. Because I usually stay at the Swan, I think one of the mini-golf places is very close to the Dolphin (which is right next to the Swan). I'll have to check that out next time! :)
Yea we just touched our magic band to the Mickey and walked right in. Tomorrow is our last full day otherwise we were going to try Fantasia Gardens as well.

I just read an article about Disney in the New York Times, "Last Task After Layoff at Disney: Train Foreign Replacements." It was written by By JULIA PRESTON. Ashamed of what Disney did American workers in favor of foreigners.

Oh dear. I'm going to have to remember to read that. My DS started with Disney as a CP. Disney certainly gets a big bang for a few bucks with the students.

As @Eric1955 said, it started with a person claiming that they got unlimited fastpasses for 15 days awarded to them upon check-in at AKL because it was a special birthday. They also had posted elsewhere that when they booked the 15 day stay, their tickets were comped. There was a mention of a VIP Transportation pass (not sure what that is). And a side discussion of the MK and HS hitting phased closure on Memorial Day weekend. Despite numerous people stating that 'unlimited' fp+ are not possible in the new system (CMs can only add them 3 at a time, even in extreme situations) and CMs chiming in about the parks not reaching ANY phased closure that weekend, the OP continued to argue and call those who doubted the truth of their information numerous names (one quite offensive). Somehow this went on for 16 pages.

Not sure why, but I got involved (those of you who know me from the past 6 years here know that I rarely getting into arguments) for the purpose of trying to stop the name calling and bring logic to the discussion. When I then got attacked, I defended myself. I tried my hardest to be nice and keep things very cordial, but right at the end was told by the OP that I was lying and now fit into the 'troll and hater' category with everyone else who had doubted the amazing succession of events.

My last post was about 9:30am this morning (graduation day = not a whole lot of teaching going on!!) where I apologized for any errors in my statements and asked to not be considered a 'troll and hater.' Sadly, I then had to go teach. Thread was gone at 11am.

Oh Dear, and I missed the entire thread. :facepalm: I've had some amazing comp's at AKL myself. CM's at that resort are grand!
