Disney’s California Food and Wine Festival – Day 3

April 14, 2008 by Laura Gilbreath

Yikes…it was a scorcher of a day today. We headed home a little after noon, and it was 96 degrees at that point. So, since I really don’t have much in the way of events to report on from today, guess what, I’m going to go back to Friday and give you more of a … Continue reading "Disney’s California Food and Wine Festival – Day 3"

Disney’s California Food and Wine Festival – Day 2

April 13, 2008 by Laura Gilbreath

Another busy day today…and it was *hot*. Definitely high 80s, if not in the 90s. Whew. There was quite a breeze blowing, too – which was good, because it helped keep us a little cooler, but it was also bad, because they couldn’t put up all of the big umbrellas, for fear they would topple … Continue reading "Disney’s California Food and Wine Festival – Day 2"

DCA Food and Wine Festival Update

March 29, 2008 by Laura Gilbreath

I was checking out Disney’s California Food and Wine Festival website (http://www.disneyland.com/foodandwine) last night and noticed that some new things have been added recently. Most weekends are going to feature a celebrity chef who will be conducting cooking demonstrations as well as book signings. In addition to Chef Jamie Gwen, who will be there every … Continue reading "DCA Food and Wine Festival Update"

The Pixar Play Parade

March 20, 2008 by Laura Gilbreath

The new Pixar Play Parade officially opened at DCA on Friday evening (there were several preview performances). I was on-hand for the first official parade, which started at 5:15. I claimed a spot on the edge of the parade route at Sunshine Plaza (where it starts) about 4:00 – turns out I didn’t really have … Continue reading "The Pixar Play Parade"

Disneyland with Lisa

March 15, 2008 by Laura Gilbreath

I had a new experience last Friday – I got to tour Disneyland with a fellow All Ears staff member – All Ears Picture This! blogger Lisa Berton. We hit both parks, all three resorts and Downtown Disney. It was a beautiful southern California day – they don’t get much better. Lisa was taking lots … Continue reading "Disneyland with Lisa"

Ralph Brennan’s Jazz Kitchen

March 13, 2008 by Laura Gilbreath

In our quest to eat at all of the Disneyland Resort restaurants (all in the interests of research, you know!) Lee and I had dinner at Ralph Brennan’s Jazz Kitchen in Downtown Disney last month. We arrived at 5:30 for our 5:30 Priority Seating. The restaurant was almost completely empty, and the hostess directed us … Continue reading "Ralph Brennan’s Jazz Kitchen"

Prince Caspian

March 11, 2008 by Laura Gilbreath

The new Narnia movie, Prince Caspian, starts on May 16 – but apparently you can get a sneak peek at Prince Caspian before that, since the Prince Caspian pre-parade starts at Disneyland on April 25. If the parade’s Prince looks anything like the movie’s Prince Caspian, then I hope Disneyland has plenty of Cast Members … Continue reading "Prince Caspian"

La Brea Bakery Cafe

March 1, 2008 by Laura Gilbreath

I’ve walked by this restaurant hundreds of times (since it is between Disneyland’s tram stop and the park entrance), but until recently I’d never eaten there. I can tell you that I’ll be eating there a lot more often in the future! We had lunch there on a cool winter day – La Brea Bakery … Continue reading "La Brea Bakery Cafe"

February Day Trip to Disneyland

February 24, 2008 by Laura Gilbreath

Lee and I took advantage of a Friday off work to spend the afternoon/evening at Disneyland. It was a gorgeous day, though chilly by southern Californian standards – only in the upper 50s. You may have heard about the freak winter storm that hit southern California on Thursday, bringing cold air that dropped the snow … Continue reading "February Day Trip to Disneyland"
