Hi there, Emily! Welcome to the Disney Parks Moms Panel!
I love helping my fellow Californians make plans for their next visit to the Happiest Place on Earth! First off, congratulations on nabbing a reservation for my favorite
Character Dining experience, “Minnie & Friends – Breakfast in the Park” at
Plaza Inn! This hearty, all-you-care-to-enjoy buffet includes morning favorites such as Mickey waffles, French toast, and even made-to-order omelets… yum!
I’m happy to report that you won’t have a problem entering the park in time for your 8:50 AM reservation, despite Disneyland Park not opening until 9:00 AM
that day. When you arrive at the entrance to Disneyland Park, look for a sign at the turnstiles announcing early dining reservations. Or, just ask a Cast Member where to go for early dining reservations if you don’t see a sign. Normally, there’s a Cast Member at the park entrance with a list of Guests with breakfast reservations that day. It’s a good idea to have your valid theme-park tickets and dining reservation confirmation number handy when you check in!
Here’s the
Entertainment Schedule for your arrival day so you can start mapping out the magic! I’m so excited that you’ll get to experience the limited-time return of the
Main Street Electrical Parade! Also, have you been to
Pixar Pier lately? I recommend stopping by Jessie’s Critter Carousel, Inside Out Emotional Whirlwind, and Toy Story Midway Mania! You may even spot
Bo Peep out front for a fun meet-and-greet!
Wishing you magical Disney days with your daughter this August!
Kristin
