When you are planning your Disneyland vacation, you should note that some days are  better than others at the park. The days that you choose to be there will depend greatly on whether you are more interested in attractions or entertainment – or both.

For instance, Tuesday’s, Wednesday’s, and Thursday’s are the days when you will have shorter lines for the attractions, because there will be fewer people there. On the other hand, the entertainment on those nights cannot compare to the entertainment that is offered on the weekends.

If entertainment is important, plan your visit to Disneyland for the weekend.
If you will be at Disneyland for several days, however, you should plan to ride the attractions on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday, and then enjoy the entertainment, as well as the other things the park has to offer on the other days. If you are visiting during the off-season, you should note that entertainment usually isn’t offered on weekdays. Also remember that the park really fills up as the day wears on, so try to ride the attractions in the morning if possible!

Ensure that you are not overly tired from travel: There is quite a bit of walking to be done in Disneyland. Moreover, you will have to stand in queues for various rides (and the wait times can be quite a lot during busy times). Whether you are in Disneyland for one day or more, you surely wouldn’t want to get there in a tired and exhausted state otherwise you will not be able to enjoy. You are in Disneyland to enjoy; and enjoy you should.

· Make the most of your time by reaching early: This is especially important if you are in the Disneyland for just a day or two. You should enquire about the opening and closing times for the day(s) you plan to visit Disneyland for. Also, you should reach there half an hour before the opening time because “Main Street, U.S.A.”, which is a part of Disneyland, generally opens about half an hour before the other parts of the Disneyland Park. So, fun can begin earlier than you would have thought.

· Sun protection: Since Disneyland is located in Southern California, you can expect the company of Sun quite often. So, take along your sunscreen lotion and hats etc for protection against Sun.

· Driving directions: Take along a map for driving directions to the Disneyland (especially if you are traveling from far). You can also get the driving directions through Disneyland website.
