Disneyland is an American theme park in Anaheim, California, owned and operated by the Walt Disney Parks and Resorts division of The Walt Disney Company.

I've taken both of my kids to Disneyland for the first time, when they were about 3 weeks old. So I know lots of tips & tricks for doing the "magic kingdom" with little ones in tow. & although most of the bathrooms at Disneyland (both male & female) have baby changing tables, Disneyland provides a special "haven" just for parents of little ones.... the Disneyland Baby Center.

I'm sharing some more plates today, and this time they don't have dead people on them. These are just a few of my vintage Disneyland souvenir plates.

There's just something magical about Disneyland around the holidays.

The Beckhams enjoyed a family trip to Disneyland in California. Posh looking unusually relaxed in baggy jeans, black t-shirt (with no cleavage to be shown...) and flip-flops. My personal opionon; she looks way sexier in that outfit than those horrible skinny jeans and tight tops. Put on a few kgs Vicky, and use the baggy look once in a while!

With the anticipation of the soon to be released Wall-E movie by Pixar, Walt Disney seems to be capitalizing on the buzz by introducing an animatronic version of Wall-E to promote the film.

Disneyland is called the "happiest place on earth"...at least that's how the Disney company calls it. A place of magic and wonder where Mickey Mouse is the king. This visit was very special because I took my wife and my daughter to visit and it was their first time visiting Disneyland. I think it's pretty cool to take people to Disneyland especially if they've never been there before.
Baghdad at night. I hope those aren't bombs falling at the top of this Disneyland-esque illustration.If I didn't know any better I'd think the idea of an amusement park built over 50 acres in Baghdad is a film treatment from David Lynch. But no. Alas, this lunacy is the brainchild of Llewellyn Werner who appears to possess the same self-awareness as, well, as George Bush. Werner secured a 50-year lease on prime real estate in Baghdad near the Green Zone to build an amusement and skateboard park. Perhaps by near the end of the lease contract Iraq will be ready for an amusement park, but it seems a bit premature to consider an entertainment park when the Green Zone remains under siege. Yesterday two US soldiers and 37 civilians were killed in attacks in and around the Green Zone. But, hey, w

"Opening this summer will be the “Innoventions Dream Home” in Tomorrowland in Disneyland, an attraction that will remind fans of Walt Disney’s fondness for futuristic ideas. The latest in cutting-edge and inspiring home ideas will be showcased in the Innoventions Dream Home, a 5,000-plus square foot residence featuring integrated digital technology in an immersive “high-tech, high-touch” guest experience. Design and development of the “Innoventions Dream Home” sprang from an alliance between Disneyland Resort, Microsoft, HP, Life/ware and home builder Taylor Morrison.The notion of a Dream Home has deep roots at the Disneyland Resort. Walt Disney was fascinated with the concept of a futuristic home and he introduced concepts at World's Fairs that led to the first "House of Tom

Archiviata la sua travagliata storia con Pete Doherty e prossima alle nozze con il suo attuale fidanzato, il chitarrista dei "The Kills" Jamie Hince, è stata paparazzata ieri a Los Angeles, a Disneyland, con la figlia Lila Grace di 5 anni (la bimba con la treccina) e amichette al seguito. E' bello vedere che Kate non sia più alle prese con la droga e continui scandali; eccola nella versione di una mamma premurosa che dedica un pò del suo tempo alla figlia...

Having the Disney name on your resume is a good way to get a prospective employer's attention. For a recent graduate, getting hired by this corporate giant can be a wonderful opportunity. BusinessWeek declared that Disney is the "Number 1 Place to Launch a Career." If you are still in college and interested in full-time employment opportunities with Disney, getting a summer job theme park job is a great way to get a feel for the company. Not only will you have the opportunity to see how the company is run, but it is an opportunity to demonstrate to the company what you have to offer as a prospective full-time employee. Disney is a company that provides extensive training to its employees. Many employees in high-level positions within the company started their careers at entry-level positio

As has been the case frequently over the past few weeks, high winds meant that Believe... In Holiday Magic and both performances of Fantasmic! were canceled altogether on New Year's Eve, and the midnight fireworks were scaled back quite a bit—reportedly down to just a few low-level pyro shots in both Disneyland and Disney's California Adventure (DCA) parks. One-day admissions for Disneyland were no longer available by 1:00 pm., but the park never reached capacity and was still allowing entry all day. This was also attributed to very high winds and chilly temperatures.
Affectionately known as DLP by Mouseketeers the world over, Disneyland Paris is a cornucopia of rides, restaurants, exhibits and all out fun for everyone. And in the last few years the fun has been doubled as Disney added the Walt Disney Studios park to an already jam packed adventure.
Many of the traditional rides from the California theme park were recreated (with some French twists) at the
After watching all these Disney videos recently I want to go to Disneyland! Who wants to go with me?
I just finished watching Disneyland: Secret, Stories, & Magic, and while it’s not necessarily related to any animals, like the other videos I’ve blogged about lately, it’s definitely worth watching. On the first disc there’s quite a bit about the making of Disneyland. How the park made its way from Walt Disney’s imagination to reality was a huge undertaking! And although Disney had many doubters, his park opened to an eager crowd on July 17, 1955.
There’s a lot on these two discs, but some of the highlights for me, besides the making of Disneyland, include Wonderful World of Color episodes. There are three on disc two but my favorite is The Golden Horseshoe Review, (aired in September, 1962) with Annette Funicello, Ed Wynn, Betty Taylor, and the hilarious Wally Boag. Other episodes include Disneyland goes to the World’s Fair, (aired in May,
A two year old girl narrowly escaped death when she hopped on to the conveyor belt at Manchester Airport, and was then taken on a hellish ride through the 4 mile long baggage handling system.
It appears the toddler's parents were distracted at the baggage counter, and the tot simply walked through an empty check in desk, stepped on the conveyor belt and managed to sneak into the luggage carousel. While her parents frantic with worry were mounting a search, the girl was making her way through a maze of X-ray machines. She'd gone about half a mile when her clothes caught on the walls of the tunnel, blocking and halting the system. When a staff member went to check up on the blockage, he found the girl inside, bruised, but safe.
Airport staff members say it's nothing short of a miracle she survived. Had she made it further through the maze, she would have been decapitated by the metal arms that sort bags into separate dispatch areas, to be loaded on to different flights.
