Halloween Party Tuesday. . .Sounds good to me. The US thing first day is probably a good idea. DLR has early entry at Disneyland Park on Saturday, FYI - that's a good time to knock out some of the more popular rides in Fantasyland (nemo and Peter Pan). Also Space Mountain is usually open during that time.

also a good time to ride the subs.

Another hint, if your not that worried about actually being in the sub, you can do the observation platform, you get all the sites and sounds, with a 5 minute wait.

I'm generally underwhelmed with Disneyland Dining as compared to WDW. However, there are a few places that are pretty good.

If you like Corn Dogs, the Corn Dog Castle at DCA is good.

Pizza Port near Space Mountain is good.

In the hotels, both Storytellers Cafe and Napa Rose are good. Steakhouse 55 is good at the Disneyland Hotel.

In DTD....Naples and Catal are okay..but expensive.....

 

[jordanyosh]

In San Diego, if you go downtown to the Gaslamp, hit the Yardhouse. It's off the main drag, but has a great selection of beer.

Fashion Valley/Mission Valley area has the usual: PF Changs, Cheesecake, Cal Pizza Kitchen, Hooters......

Gordon Biersch is a good microbrew and Seau's is Junior Seau's place...........
