🎢✨ When you think you’re prepared for a magical Disneyland day… and then DEADPOOL just casually appears and your inner school girl lets out a full-volume squeal you didn’t even know you were capable of. 😱🙌❤️ I swear I went from “cool Disney adult” to “OHMYGOSHHIHIHI!!!” in 0.2 seconds. Zero chill. No regrets. 10/10 would squeal again. 😂🔥 Because honestly wandering into Deadpool at Disneyland??? That’s MAIN CHARACTER energy. 🐭🗡️✨ #MickeyPlanning #Disneyland #DeadpoolAtDisneyland #MultiverseMagic #DisneyAdult #PixieDustMoments #IYelled #ZeroChill #BestDayEver

✨🌙 Disneyland After Dark = Core Memory Nights 🌙✨ Have you ever done one of the Disneyland After Dark parties? They’re like regular park days… but leveled up with extra magic, shorter lines, and ALL the vibes. 💫 Special photo ops, rare characters, party-only snacks, themed music, and everyone dressed for the occasion – it seriously feels like you’re in your own Disney movie after hours. Plus, the kids think it’s the coolest thing ever to be in the park “way past bedtime.” 😎 If you’re planning a trip, keep an eye out for these ticketed parties – they sell out fast, but they’re SUCH a fun way to experience Disneyland in a totally different way. Would you do a Disneyland After Dark party on your next trip? Which theme would you pick? 💜 #MickeyPlanning #DisneylandAfterDark #DisneylandTips #DisneyMomLife

Second star to the right and straight on ’til… Fantasyland! ✨🌙 Peter Pan’s Flight will always be one of the most magical rides in Disneyland. There’s just something about flying over London, drifting into Neverland, and hearing that music that makes you feel like a kid again. A true core-memory ride. 💛 Who else runs here first thing in the morning? #PeterPansFlight #DisneylandMagic #FantasylandFeels #MickeyPlanning
