Disneyland Day 2 | First Time Using Genie+ | Our Favorite Disneyland Snack!

On our second day at Disneyland, we decided to give Genie+ a try. Since this was Southern California's spring break week, it was crowded. We loved the shorter lines that came with Genie+ - on the other hand, there were other challenges (always being on our phones, spending more time being strategic with ride times, choices, etc...). We definitely miss how easy Disneyland used to be, but it was good to have this experience - and most importantly, we had a really fun day together!

    Disneyland AP here saying perfect time to get there is 15 minutes after rope drop. By 10:00am the park starts to get miserably crowded. That's when you get breakfast, go shopping and go back to the resort until about 8pm when you go back to the park. 😊

    Team late entry! My family and I have done rope drop and you do have to wait and wait, then after they drop the rope you have to watch out for the people pushing and running you over. That is not pleasant, I understand the excitement but safety is important! Also, you are on vacation you don’t want to be stressed over it! Rope drop is an expensive, maybe for those who don’t go as much, or maybe once. I Understand the excitement though. Great Vlog! Glad you guys had a great magical family vacation! Thanks for sharing!

    Thx!! We really love having experience of doing both resorts now! It was fun to try the same rise in both parks and see the differences. We did Disney World in early 2021 (vlogs are on our channel). Hope you get to experience Disneyland too! Just be mindful that there’s not as many benefits for staying on property at this point as there are in Disney World. No early park entry or extended hours after closing.

    I used to do rope drop and then stopped. To go to Disneyland Park morning or mid afternoon I rather skip the line and do the monorail entrance plus the views aren’t disappointing. Chris shirt should say “here for the Disney dad jokes”. I can’t believe you guys broke down on Rise 🫣 and the stress for the macaroons 😂! Love Cafe Orleans! Love meeting you guys and hopefully meet up on a future Disney Cruise if not Disneyland parks. Genie+ should be for peak season not a daily thing so haven’t used it but can’t wait for your guys thoughts on it. Now goals are to watch fireworks from Galaxy’s Edge. Another wonderful vlog!

    We love the pink trees in the hub. So magical. I'm with Carrie, I love watching Tea Cups from the outside but not ride them. I might start taking some Dramamine so I can ride them. Ah good old Arrow Development, causing a trip to the chiropractor since 1959 😂 She is rough isn't she? Last time I rode Space Mountain, on row 4, it messed me up really bad. Even then I still prefer it over the original in Disney World. I'd be all over that Horchata Cold Brew! Bummer that it was too sweet. Ugh, I haven't had a raspberry macaron in such a long time. 😭 They're soooo good. Cafe Orleans is always a must when we go. We loved Max Pass when it was around. Looks like you used it pretty well! Byeeeee! Until the next video! -Ven

    👍 😂 at least we’re in the same boat with our spouses. I do like getting enough sleep for sure. I also like to rope drop. Good to know about Matterhorn! I have a peak design everyday zip backpack. It’s not the backpack that I use to hang my camera from. Peak design makes an attachment you can use with most any backpack - it’s called the capture camera clip v3. It’s on Amazon. Great option to be hands free! Here is the link: smile.amazon.com/dp/B07818LB9D/ref=cm_sw_r_awdo_RHMPG11JSABA1Z5GSYDR

    We didn’t include the clip of our girls talking about it after the ride (by mistake) - it’s way smoother (not super jerky like WDW), the music on the headrest is so fun and they project stars all around the inside. WDW’s space mtn doesn’t have any of that.

    We did like it the first day, and we really liked the shorter lines that came with it. But there were some unexpected things that we experienced as well after using it on multiple days. It’s completely a personal preference. We’ll go in more detail on our haul video 😀
