Unlimited Fastpasses, Two Disney Hotels, and a Chef’s Table – It’s all Good Until Somebody Barfs

I just got back from the Happiest Place on Earth! And oh how I love it there. Disneyland is my home away from home. We spent so much time there when we lived in California and I have so many wonderful memories of it. I don’t get there near as often as I like anymore. So when some training was offered for travel agents, I knew I was there!

Who – Me of course! And Pam, Missy and Dani were coming for training too! There was a whole gaggle of Kingdom Konsultants! Well, is four a gaggle? Maybe not, but it was still fun! Here we all are from left to right Tammy, Missy, Pam and Dani:

When – August 22nd -August 27th

Where – 4 nights at the Grand Californian and one at the Disneyland Hotel

What – Some agent training and some fun!

Catch phrase of the trip – “It’s all good until somebody barfs.” Don’t worry, nobody actually barfed. More on that later…

Great pictures! I can't believe how empty Carsland is - more incentive to stay at a Disney hotel.

That's the thing with mornings on the California Coast - the marine layer that doesn't burn off until later. But that's really the only complaint I have about the weather there!

Definitely a great incentive. Totally worth it.

I do not like the marine layer. We didn't have it anytime but June (June Gloom) when we lived in Thousand Oaks on the north side of Los Angeles. We had it year round (and worse) on the central coast of California when we lived there. I was a little surprised we had it this time, because I didn't remember it that time of year in Anaheim.

Great update!!! Cars Land is spectacular and the greatest gift ever given to DCA!

I completely agree.

Wow the details in Cars Land is amazing! I love all the rockwork on RSR. You would never guess you're right smack in the middle of a theme park with how great they did on that.

The hotels are so pretty. I really like the Disneyland Hotel

Isn't it amazing?

The Disneyland Hotel is really great since they re-did it.

I like the way you think, Joanna!! I'm in!

I think it could be fun (and that would be one definite way to get me out there).

2014????

Don't ya hate when you're lining up a killer shot and it's almost entirely free of people but then there's that one or two people lingering? So you wait a few minutes hoping they'll wander along before anyone else comes into the frame but you see the others out of the corner of your eye so you're forced to grab the almost but not quite entirely perfect shot. Drives me nuts! LOL! But you managed to get the next one free of people so YAY for your success! All the pics are wonderful, Tammy! Tracey & I both really enjoyed them!

Let's do it!

I hate hate hate it! I had to angle crazy the next time. And the dude in front of the Luigis with his stroller? I can't tell you how long I waited for him to move before I gave up.

An all girl DLR trip sounds like the most amazing idea ever. Months ago, I hinted at a DL meet-up on the DLR forum but I don't think anyone got it LOL!

We get it here! We hinted at a Wdwmagic girls cruise and that's planned! So a DL girls trip is a great idea!

Some of the inside scenes, which are amazing:

Then out again!

The end:

Look at these happy faces!

All that in only one hour in the park!

Totally jealous of, but loving, your on-ride shots!! I wish I had time to ride more than once; I put the camera down to just take it in for the first ride. The inside is amazing - blew my mind!

 

[Kristia]

Just saw your trip report! Wow....I am so behind. Loving all your pics! They are AWESOME! I really want to get out there someday. I need more $$$ for all these trips I want to take! Cars Land looks amazing. The details are spectacular. I really want to save up for when we finally make it out there so we can stay at one of the park hotels. I think we would have a tough time choosing. They all look wonderful.

Okay! But right now my head is wrapped up in the girls cruise! So give me a few days!

Thank you, Heather! I put the camera down the first time too. I wanted to soak it in!

And yes, I think I said "Wow" outloud when we went through some of the indoor scenes.

Thank you, Kristia! If only we all had unlimited vacation funds!

All the park hotels are fun, but I love love love the Grand Californian!
