A general description is helpful (along with specific names)
Expert in Disneyland history/trivia (Diane)
Great with kids (Alex, Maggie)
Maximize number of attractions (Jeff)
Also a good idea to request seating in advance (parades, fireworks…)...
Sorry, I was not clear. The current parade, Magic Happens, alternates direction (on weekdays when there are only one performance per day).
Starts at Small World on Monday and Wednesday.
Starts at Town Square on Tuesday and Thursday
Parade start rotates, when there is only 1 parade a day.
I assume first parade will always starts at small world, when there are 2 parade times (which might occasionally require moving parade overnight)
Hard boiled eggs are available in the morning -- a few years ago they finally started peeling them :goodvibes
Deviled eggs are sometimes offered at lunch.

Officially, you will need to pay for the 3rd...
Every thread on MiceChat is similar to this one, at least before I abandoned MC years ago.
MC does publish excellent weekly articles -- often see Dusty Sage roaming the parks.
I've been checking, as of yesterday (and a few days prior) it has been Sold Out resort wide.
As an Easter themed item, it should be restocked (fingers crossed)
The map combines room numbers for all floors, so is not exactly correct.
Linked in my signature (using a computer browser) is a floor by floor map.
The blank next to 509 is really an error, since there is no empty space there.
The blank next to 1513 are the restrooms accessed from the pool...
The proposed plan back in 2016, would have looked like this:
Project was derailed by lawsuits and politics, also the cancelation of the Eastern Gateway.
Proposed at the same time, the same owners did complete the Westin on Katella...

I told the valet when arriving at the Grand Californian, and the scooter was at the car before the bags had even been unloaded. Pixar Place should provide similar service.
You will be charged for parking.
Only Magicband+ is compatible, not earlier versions.
