Ok guys, It's 1:15 am here in beautiful California... and I cant sleep! So I'm going to chat about the event I'm going to this Monday at the Disneyland Resort! It's Fantasmic!'s 20th Anniversary and a certain amount of Disneyland annual passholders will get in to this event! I am so excited because I have never been to an event like this before! I've been to the opening day of Remember Dreams Come True fireworks and seen Dancing With the Stars here too, but never an official event that is limited to a certain amount of passholders! There are several days that the event is held, but I am going on the 21st. I along with a bunch of other passholders will be in Disneyland after they close for a special viewing of Fantasmic! and with certain rides open and amazing new foods and merchandise all for the show's 20th anniversary! How cool is that?! Anyways, I'll also be going the next day as well. I'll be filming tons of videos such as Snacks in the Parks, Food at Fantasmic!'s 20th Anniversary, and basically covering all about the event! I'll also be doing a few shout outs and maybe meeting up with a fan for her birthday! So much is happening this next Disney trip and its so amazing to be around people who have the same love for Disney! Keep a lookout on my YouTube for those videos! I'm going to bed guys, goodnight!

Ever thought about getting an Annual Pass to the Disneyland Resort in California, but weren't sure if it was worth it? I'm here to tell you all the benefits of being a Disneyland Resort Annual Passholder and why its way worth it to get a pass! Now remember, this is only for the Disneyland Resort in CALIFORNIA. Not Disney World in Florida.

To start off, there are 4 different passes,. From cheapest to most expensive, the list is Socal Select, Socal, Deluxe, and Premium. Lets go over what each pass will give you!
        
Socal Select:  -170 days of free access into both Disneyland and California Adventure. All the other days are blocked out, but you can still get in for a fee which is cheaper than any of the normal tickets you can purchase. Most of these block out days are holidays, weekends, and almost all the weeks in summer. This pass is good for someone who goes during the weekdays.
                     -Up to 10% off food and merchandise.
                     - Special Hotel rates (They change over periods of time and during special events so you have to call the hotels for more information)
                      -Discounted Tours in the parks

Socal:  -215 days of free access into both Disneyland and California Adventure. More days than the Socal Select, but still have days blocked out. This pass is a little more flexible but most of these block out days are still weekends, most holidays (not including Valentines Day and St. Patricks Day and some others) and most of summer. All the other days are blocked out, but you can still get in for a fee which is cheaper than any of the normal tickets you can purchase.      
           -Up to 10% off food and merchandise.
           - Special Hotel rates (They change over periods of time and during special events so you have to call the hotels for more information)
            -Discounted Tours in the parks

Deluxe:  -315 days of free access to both Disneyland and California Adventure. Almost 365 days out of the year, but not quite. This is the pass I hope to upgrade to next year or this summer if I can get a decent job.For the rest of the block out days, again you can pay a fee that is cheaper than any of the regular tickets.
             -Up to 10% off food and merchandise.
             - Special Hotel rates (They change over periods of time and during special events so you have to call the hotels for more information)
             -Discounted Tours in the parks

Premium:  -365 days of free access to both Dosneyland and California Adventure!!! All days of the year which means NO BLOCKOUT DAYS!!!
                -Up to 20% off food and merchandise.
                -Parking Included
                -Special Hotel rates (They change over periods of time and during special events so you have to call the hotels for more information)
                -Discounted Tours in the parks

Some other cool stuff that comes with being an Annual Passholder is going to special events, special deals, and much more. Some special events will include previews of new costumes and merchandise...and maybe food. You can also enter into special contests and get special deals on new items that only passholders can get. You also get a Newsletter in the mail with a calendar of all the happenings and special dates coming this year or whatever year you become a passholder.

I know a pass is a lot of money, but trust me, it pays off after only a few visits. Ive visited the park 21 times already and it paid for itself in 3 visits. For those of you who cant afford to spend a ton of money right off the bat, there are monthly payment plans for each pass. I am one of those people. How much are they? Well here's the list updates as of May 2012.  (Full amount/Monthly Payments)
Socal Select: $119 (paid off in 1.5 trips)/Down payment of $80 then $9.92 per month
Socal: $269 (paid off in 2.5 trips)/Down payment of $80 then $15.75 per month
Deluxe: $379 (paid off in 3.5 trips)/Down payment of $80 then $24.92 per month
Premium: $499 (paid off in 5 trips)/Down Payment of $80 then $34.92 per month

How did I know how many days it takes for a pass to pay for itself? A 1 day park hopper is $105. =]

Alrighty guys, Hope this helped!!! If you have questions, leave comments! For more info and more info on the special events and such, follow me on Youtube! http://www.youtube.com/dancergirl247

Ok guys, well I got word a few days ago that the store that I work at will be closing later this May, which means I will be losing my job. I will be constantly looking for a new job in my area hopefully at the mall I currently work at. So , for my followers, I will continue to be making youtube videos, writing blogs and tweeting. I will not let this get in the way of what I love. I can still visit the parks and will do so ASAP. If you have any good advice to add to resumes or have great job ideas, please comment! Id love to hear your ideas!

I will be making another video this week about the benefits of having a Disneyland Annual Pass. Please be patient with me. Finding a job takes time. Thank you for understanding!

Hey guys! I’m De and as you can guess by my name, I love Disneyland and I go way too much for the average person. When I say too much, I mean I go once a week or every other week. I live in sunny San Diego, about two hours away from Disneyland. Most of the time my boyfriend Nic joins me. I’ve always been a Disney fan even way back when I was 5 and me and my family would go together. Even through my high school years, I’d go with my choir behind the scenes at Disneyland and record with them. A year after I graduated we were asked to come back to perform in their Candlelight Processional for the second time. It’s been a few years since those amazing experiences, but the magic still lives. So, early March I thought about making YouTube videos giving tips, updates and to share my adventures with people who have never been to the Disneyland parks before or who are still getting used to the Disneyland tourist style. Later that March I posted my first YouTube video, What to Pack for Disneyland. Through these videos, I hope to give helpful tips to newcomers, great ideas for the people who come now and then, and to share and gain my knowledge of the magic of Disney.
You ever wonder how you can save money in the parks? Or what are the benefits of being an annual passholder? These questions and much more will be some of the things I will be talking about in my videos and this blog. I will be providing tips such as what to do while waiting in line for rides, and the best time to go on popular rides. Since I constantly visit Disneyland, I can easily give updates on rides that are under construction and new attractions and shows coming to the parks. In fact, a new land will be opening in California Adventure called Cars Land this summer 2012! I will be there when the gates open to get a firsthand look at the brand new and improved park! Can you say exciting?
I know there are other Disney bloggers and gurus out there in this great big world, so I would love it if you guys left me comments, helpful tips and use your amazing imagination to help me improve my blog for your enjoyment! Remember, Walt Disney loved the imagination and that’s how the Disney company came to be. Lets use imagination to help make this blog all it can be.
