If you have one day in So Cal, this is where you should spend that day. The quality of rides and shows far surpasses that of any and all of its peers (save the other Disney theme parks). The theatrical quality of even some of the thrill rides will leavie you mesmerized, and chances are you'll swear off six flags for good. While it tends to be crowded during the summer, the end of December, and on weekends, you are almost guaranteed to walk on any of the rides without lining upif you go during an off season weekday. Though most experiences at Disneyland are top notch, the restaurants are the exception, so if you get hungry, head to one of the independently owned and operated restaurants in nearby Downtown Disney.
