New and Improved! Disney California Adventure


The all new entrance to Disney California Adventure Park is complete.  Buena Vista Street is now where you make your way into the park.  The detail is incredible and immersive.  You really feel transported to something between a movie set and the real thing.  There are new shops and dining establishments.  There are even "streetmosphere" entertainers, like those found at Disney's Hollywood Studios in Florida.  The place looks fantastic.


The details are not just outside, but inside the shops as well.



These are just a few of the places you'll upon entering the park.  It is really nice to see the amount of detail and care put into DCA, making it the kind of park we actually all expected to see in 2001.  Well, it took another decade and a little over a billion dollars to get there, but it was worth it.  It reopens June 15, 2012.


The Rebirth of Disney California Adventure Park


June 15, 2012, Disney California Adventure reopens and is rededicated as a Disney park.  The newly added  Buena Vista Street feels just like being back in a glamorous version of 20s Hollywood.  The new Red Car Trolley will pick you up at the main gate and take your through Buena Vista Street, into Hollywood Land and drop you off at the Hollywood Tower Hotel.


The biggest part of the all new California Adventure Park is Cars Land.  You will really feel like you are actually in Radiator Springs.  There are new shops, eateries and three new attractions.

Radiator Springs Racers

Luigi's Flying Tires

Mater's Junkyard Jamboree

We will provide details of each attraction in upcoming posts.  Line up begins at 11 PM tonight, June 14th for those who want to be among the first inside the park on opening day.  See you there!
