Hi Carolyn,
It's great to see you here at planDisney. I'm super excited for you and your upcoming stay at
Disney's Grand Californian Hotel & Spa. It's a simply beautiful place to stay, and I always appreciate the convenient walk from the Resort hotel to the theme parks. I can imagine you're counting the days until you arrive.
You can
give a call to the Disneyland Resort at (714) 520-5060 to update your Resort hotel reservation or vacation package. You can also
purchase theme park tickets and make theme park reservations at the same time using the online system.
Simply select the number of days you want to visit the theme parks, select the number of tickets you require, select the ticket type you want (in your case, Park Hopper tickets), and then choose the dates you want to visit the theme parks. You'll see the reservation calendar where you can select your dates based on availability, and then you can reserve those dates.
With the
Park Hopper tickets you are planning to purchase, you would choose a starting park to begin your theme park day, and then you could hop to the other park after 1 p.m.
Carolyn, if you're looking for ideas on what to see, do, and enjoy, just ask us here at planDisney. We're always happy to make suggestions based on our own vacations to Disney destinations.
Here's wishing you a wonderful stay at the Disneyland Resort!
Jerry
