Welcome back to Destined to Disney! It's 2018 and I've already been to the parks five times! Needless to say I have a lot to share. Pixar fest is in full affect and all I can say without spoiling it is, it's SOOO cute. I personally am not a huge Pixar fan, but for those that are this is great. We'll save the details on that for another post. For this post I want to share some Disney basics for the first timers! Let's get into it! 1. Download the Disneyland App. THIS IS A MUST.

Hello and welcome back! I've been slacking on the blog and for that I apologize but I'm back with lots of fun stuff to share! The holiday season is in full effect at the Disneyland Resort. This amazing transformation began November 10th and will continue until January 7th! This gives you plenty of time to plan a trip and experience all Christmas magic the happiest place on earth has to offer this year. For this post I will be filling you in on a special event that happens once a year in California Adventure, Festival of Holidays. Festival of Holidays is a huge celebration of foods and drinks that are prepared during the holiday season around the world. Disney gives you a first hand experience with the rich flavors that many know and love. In the park there are 12 marketplaces that you can visit with their own individual themes. Each marketplace offers a few savory, sweet and beverage options. There is also live musical entertainment right in front of Mickeys Fun Wheel

Imagination: The Fantasmic Trip

Hello and welcome back! I'm excited to share some fun things with you! Being a passholder I soon discovered the joy of an unpressured trip to the parks. There is always this unspoken that you HAVE TO try and get EVERYTHING done. This being said I’ve decided to make my trips centered around specific attractions or events. This trip was specifically focused on the new and improved nighttime spectacular, Fantasmic!  As many of you may know Fantasmic is a long running water show (similar to World of Color) that began in the early 90’s and was put on pause due to the new Star Wars land construction which is set to open in 2019.

I can remember being no more than five and seeing the bright colored water shoot up in the sky while feeling the mist on my face. There are a few things you should know before seeing the show. “We are still working out the kinks and change our approach eve

Destiny is my name and Disney is my game! By popular demand of friends and family and also something I've wanted to do for a while, I have finally started my Disney blog. Photography has become a passion of mine and this is a great way to show it. As many of you know Disney has been a part of my life ever since I can remember. I know almost every song to every movie and have been visiting the parks since the age of three! Disney is a big part of who I am as a person. I wanted to share my love for it in a new way by helping others!  As an annual pass holder I visit the parks quite often. Here is where I will be sharing my experiences and filling you in on everything from parking, pictures, food, merchandise, parades, character experiences and more! My wish is for everyone to have the most magical experience while visiting the Disneyland Resort! The two biggest questions I get are... 1. Don't you get tired of going so much? 2. Why do you love it so much? To
