Hi, Tee! Thanks for stopping by planDisney and asking your question!
I'm glad to hear that you have
Park Hopper tickets. With Disneyland Park and Disney California Adventure Park mere steps away from each other, park hopping could not be easier. At 1:00 p.m. each day, you can begin hopping to the other park and you can continue to hop back and forth the rest of the day if you wish. There is no limit on the number of times you hop between parks.
As for
character dining, you'll be glad to know that there are several character meals offered at the Disneyland Resort. The only character meal inside the parks is the Minnie and Friends - Breakfast in the Park at the Plaza Inn in Disneyland Park. This is a super fun buffet breakfast with Minnie and a variety of her friends. Outside the parks, you can have breakfast with Mickey and friends at Storytellers Cafe or enjoy the Disney Princess Breakfast Adventures at Napa Rose. Both of those restaurants are located in Disney's Grand Californian Hotel and Spa. Finally, you can have breakfast or dinner with Goofy and his pals at Goofy's Kitchen at the Disneyland Hotel. Keep in mind that the character interactions at these meals are currently modified due to the pandemic. Characters will walk and dance through the restaurant (sometimes more than once) and you and your family can wave to them from your table.
I hope this helps! Have a wonderful time at the Happiest Place on Earth!
