Disneyland Resort California is an entertainment resort in Anaheim, California, USA. It is owned and operated by The Walt Disney Company through its experiences division, featuring two theme parks (Disneyland and Disney California Adventure), three hotels, and the Disney Downtown shopping, dining, and entertainment district. Disneyland Park features Sleeping Beauty Castle as its landmark, with scenes from the fairy tale displayed inside. The Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge area recreates the streets of Batuu from the movies, where visitors can board the Millennium Falcon. Classic attractions like Pirates of the Caribbean, Space Mountain, and Haunted Mansion in New Orleans Square have been operating for decades, with daytime parades often winding through the park. At Disney California Adventure Park, Cars Land is modeled after the desert town from the movie, with Radiator Springs Racers remaining a perennial favorite. The Avengers Campus offers thrilling experiences like Guardians of the Galaxy - Mission: Breakout! and an interactive shooting adventure with Spider-Man. Over at Pixar Pier, the Incredicoaster races along the bay. At night, Disneyland lights up the sky with castle fireworks, while Disney California Adventure dazzles with a grand water and light show on the lake. Given the resort's size and long queues for popular attractions, two full days are recommended to fully explore both parks—hit the top rides early, then explore at leisure. Keep an eye out for hidden Mickey easter eggs scattered throughout the parks, as spotting them adds to the fun. After the parks close, head to Downtown Disney for dining and shopping to cap off your day. Disneyland was the company's first theme park, and also a theme park built by Walt Disney, which opened on July 17, 1955. Disney California Adventure Park is a theme park based on Disney's interpretation of California, which opened on February 8, 2001.Anaheim · 32km from Laguna Beach

This is a Disney adventure park themed around California. Originally conceived as "experiencing all of California in one day," the park's entrance once featured a replica of the Golden Gate Bridge, vividly showcasing the state's captivating culture and rich history—the very essence the "paradise park" aimed to convey. Disney California Adventure Park opened on February 8, 2001. Originally the parking lot for Disneyland, it has since evolved into a vibrant theme park featuring rides, shopping, and dining. From Cars Land and Buena Vista Street to Pixar Pier, Avengers Campus, and San Fransokyo Square, the park has continuously expanded over the years, with even more exciting additions planned for the future.Anaheim · 31.4km from Laguna Beach

The water at Laguna Beach was exceptionally clear; you could see the rocks at the bottom. There weren't many people on the beach; an old man strolled leisurely with a metal detector. As the tide receded, small puddles were revealed, and children squatted down watching the sea anemones retract and expand. A cool sea breeze blew, the waves crashed, and the sun made everyone sleepy. Climbing up the hillside, the sea below was a truly beautiful blue, much more so than in the photos.

Ticketing is convenient and quick. The world's first Disney park is a bit old, and the castle looks somewhat shabby, but it's the first one! The fun atmosphere remains undiminished, and the food prices inside the park are reasonable, similar to those outside, and the taste is also good. Visiting both parks in one day is perfectly feasible.

It felt a little different from Disney Resort in Japan! It was exciting to ride Cars, a ride that doesn't exist in Japan!

After going to Baboa Island, you can stop by here. There is a very good seafood restaurant by the beach. Here you can enjoy the sunset while having dinner. This is the Bulewater Grill, which is easy to find in Newport Beach.

Last December, my family and I took some delicious fried chicken to our favorite beach, Corona Del Mar, for a picnic. In December, there were not many people on the beach, so we picked a piece of land near the sea, spread out the picnic blanket, and started eating fried chicken. The sharp-eyed seagulls all flew over, and there were more and more of them, getting closer and closer. The seagulls were very big, as big as chickens, which was a bit scary. We threw some food to them, and they seemed to like it very much. After eating, it was time to walk on the beautiful beach. We took off our shoes and socks, rolled up our trouser legs, and walked in the cold sea water. My feet felt numb. But after walking a few more steps, I lost consciousness and didn't feel cold anymore. We walked to the big rock on the left. There was a cave there, but it was not easy to walk. The bottom of each rock was covered with sharp black things. If you touch it gently, it will spray water. Later, I found out that they were anemones, because they were exposed because of low tide. It was really interesting. There was water in some rock pits, and I saw many open anemones, which was really beautiful!

We visited on a poor surf day, but had fun watching some kite surfers. The beach is clean with free parking and bathroom facilities.

It's a great perspective to visit the city and it's reasonably priced. After visiting the Empire State Building in New York and the Sears Tower in Chicago, it's a little too unremarkable, but it's the best view in Baltimore.
