. It's almost like I can plan a Disney vacation, but also see how ridiculous it is to plan a Disney vacation.
I soooo miss the convenience of the Disneyland shuttle bus! It was awesome! I'm stuck flying into LAX since our major airline doesn't do the closer airports, and the missing bus totally messed with my transit plans.My small town midwestern self doesn't do well in the shuffle of a big city.I'll probably end up going into SNA because I've done it before. If I fly straight from FL I'm going to spend the extra days down there since I have an AP. I'm not looking forward to having to buy day tix for the entire family for DL!!
It's too bad they discontinued the Disney shuttle. I like not having to think about things like logistics!
I am soo happy. 
I LOVE THIS! What a great idea and it looks amazing!So my costume came in. I had to order it early because Tutu Factory gets filled up on custom jobs early. I wanted something very Disneyland themed so I went with the Disneyland Small world clock tower! Here is what she made. Also she made 2 different bows! I can go with pink or gold

This will be for my 10k. So I am done now with my costumes since I have my Dumbo costume for 1/2 marathon done too other than tweaking things. Like figuring out my underlayer if it is cold at Disneyland during our run.
What do u guys think?

. Last "difficult" thing will be park reservations since I'll need them for the week before and won't be able to start booking race weekend until I've started using those up. But things usually open up the night before at the very least.
Forgot to share the other day, but my hotel FINALLY opened up 2024 dates. All booked 1/10-1/15
I'm glad to hear you liked Castle Inn. That's where I'm staying in January!
Our room was actually nicer than what I had seen in pictures or YouTube reviews! Pleasantly surprised. We are staying at the Desert Palms across the street in January but I would have changed to this if it was the cheaper option. If anybody has any info to compare the two places please do share, they are about the same price for race weekend.
I haven't stayed at Castle Inn but stayed at Desert Palms for both race weekends I've done at Disneyland. I love it! It's just a comfortable hotel, I thought.
Awesome thanks, I think I'll stand pat with my reservation then, and try it.
I really want to do that, but after running through the various logistics, I concluded that there are too many variables that have to fall just right for me to pull it off and in order to give myself the best chance at pulling it off, I would have to spend considerably more.Ok, sticking to Plan A, then!
I'm still hoping for the MK/DL park hop that day!
Well that stinks...Fantasmic! will be down until at least Spring of 2024, so we won't have it during the weekend
This really bums me out! I remember seeing Fantasmic at DL as a kid and this will be my kids first time to DL. Sad I won’t be able to share this moment with them. This and MSEP are big memories for me!Fantasmic! will be down until at least Spring of 2024, so we won't have it during the weekend
