The mom in the log in front of us on Tiana’s Bayou Adventure just had her daughter stand up in the log to take her picture and her daughter almost fell out of the log when our log hit theirs. Grossly irresponsible and selfish behavior on that mom’s part. NEVER stand up.

For my 1000th ride on Tiana’s Bayou Adventure the cast members surprised me by getting permission for five of my favorite cast members to ride with me, and they also made me this really sweet banner congratulating me! A core memory day for sure and I’m so grateful to them! ❤️🥹

Sadly a guest had a heart attack on Haunted Mansion Holiday at Disneyland last night. She was unresponsive when it was her turn to unload and declared DOA once she reached the hospital. Sending condolences to her family and loved ones 😢

Both Disneyland parks being blocked out for Magic Key reservations tomorrow is wild. Especially since they’ll probably open them up in the morning, but won’t let us change our starting parks. The false scarcity is so obvious. The reservation system is the opposite of magical.
