Disneyland Park in Anaheim

The stretch of parade route in-between Pixie Hollow and Matterhorn is lined with built in benches and narrow parade seating. I love this area because adults have a real place to sit, while kids can sit up close on the brick below. These seats go quickly; mark off your space well and no one will be able to push or sneak in behind you because of the benches and narrow accessibility.

The Sleeping Beauty castle walk-through can be found just inside Fantasyland. It never gets busy, won't be too scary, and tells a classic Fantasyland story. After you cross the bridge and walk under the castle, turn left immediately and look for the decorated doorway (above). The attraction includes several stairways through various parts of the castle. There is an alternate experience without stairs for guests unable to climb them; ask a nearby Cast Member.

The Tiki Juice Bar outside the Enchanted Tiki Room serves everyone's favorite snack at Disneyland - the Dole Whip. There are often long lines. But few people know that the same stand serves people waiting for the attraction inside the Enchanted Tiki Room waiting area. You do not need to actually continue to the Tiki Room after purchasing your Dole Whip, but you can as they allow food and drinks in the show and the air conditioning will prevent your Whip from melting on a hot day.

There is a "secret" disconnected FastPass distribution at the far end of the Star Tours distribution area. Next door to the FastPass distribution for Star Tours, there are two machines that are not connected to the rest of the FastPass system that distribute FastPass tickets for Buzz Lightyear Astro Blasters. You can hold this FastPass and any other at the same time.
