Top 5 Things You Should never Do At Disneyland
Disneyland is the most magical place on earth. Where characters from our favorite Disney movies come to life and we get to test our spirit of adventure on some amazing rides.
Now while there is a lot of limits your allowed to push at Disney there are somethings you should never do and that’s what were going to talk about today.
Alright without further a due lets get started on our list of the top 5 things you should never do at Disneyland.
5. Wait for the nighttime parade
Paint the night is disneys nighttime parade and its absolutely amazing. There are awesome floats- so many lights- wonderful effects and all your favorite Disney characters are there.
People love the parade so much that guests will start to stake out a spot on the parade route 2 hours prior to the parade. And just sit there waiting for the parade to start.
I made that mistake the first year I went to Disneyland because I didn’t know any better and I wasn’t about to miss this amazing parade. But the next year I realised something that is such a time saver- so im gong to share that with you guys.
If you go to look for a place to sit further back in the park- near where the parade ends there are so many places to sit. So basically if you go to the end of the parade route near the ride it’s a small world about 10 minutes before the parade starts youll have a lot of choices on where you want to sit.
Also if you don’t mind missing the parade then this is the perfect time to head to the most popular rides. Since almost everyone watches the parade the lines for the rides are pretty much non-existent.
4. Height requirements
Whatever you do don’t try to cheat the height lines. As im sure most of you know some of the rides at Disneyland have minimum height requirements.
And even if youre too small to get on the ride youll still want to go on it. But those height requirements are there for everyone’s safety. So don’t try to get around them.
If a person tries to go on the ride but they arnt tall enough they could fall out of the restraints. I know the pain. Im short im only 5’1 . but I never went on a ride I was too small for and im still here today.
So yeah make sure you follow the rules and just remember one day youll be tall enough to go on all the rides.
3. Standing all Day
Yeah obviously standing all day in the hot sun isn’t the best idea. I know youre at Disneyland so your all excited and want to do as many things as possible and your minds telling you to go here- there and everywhere but you need to listen to your body as well- which will eventually tell you that you need to take a break. During mid-day it’s a good idea to take a break.
Maybe go to a restaurant and grab some food or just sit in the shade for a little bit. This way you arnt going to burn yourself out and youll have energy to stay there later.
Because one thing you don’t want to miss are the fireworks and water show. They are absolutely amazing.
2. Bringing a Selfie sStick
Yep theres no point in bringing a selfie stick because its just going to get taken away from you before you even get to enter the park.
Selfie sticks are actually on the list of prohibited items on the Disneyland website. So really its your fault for not checking that. The ban is simply a safety issue.
This ban was actually enforced after a guest on the California Screamin roller coaster took out there selfie stick mid-ride and triggered an emergency safety stop. Some other things that arnt allowed are- drones- folding chairs- large tripods- and remote-controlled toys.
1. Fast Pass
its extremely important you don’t miss your fast pass window. So a few years ago employees were more relaxed and they would accept expired fast passes at any ride.
You were able to go up and use them at a later time then issued on the pass- just so long as it was the same day. But oh man have times changed.
More recently every fast pass ticket has a time window printed on it. So make sure you get to the line before that window pass expires- otherwise youre not going to be able to use it. Well there you have it that’s our list of the top 5 things you should never do at Disneyland.
