Last Weekend at Disney California Adventure: Lunar New Year
Today at Disneyland Disney kicked off the company's centennial celebration, "100 Years of Wonder."
I'll be visiting Disneyland next week to take in the new Disney Gallery exhibit and possibly the new fireworks and ride, but for today we'll take a look back at last weekend's visit to the Lunar New Year celebration at Disney California Adventure.
We began our day with a wonderful breakfast at Pym's Test Kitchen (seen above).
It's the Year of the Rabbit, which has given Disney a wonderful excuse to feature Oswald the Lucky Rabbit.
Since it's also the Vietnamese Year of the Cat, Oswald's girlfriend Ortensia the Cat has also been seen in the park.
Some views around the park:
As we did last year, we shared a chicken dish from the Red Dragon Spice Traders booth...
...along with an entree from the Paradise Garden Grill. Everything was excellent!
Mulan's Lunar New Year procession is wonderfully colorful.
As a huge Oswald fan, I was delighted by the button which was an exclusive gift for Magic Key passholders.
As our day drew to a close we were treated to a sighting of Francisco, one of the "Cats of Disneyland." Francisco can often be found in the Grizzly Rapids area, which is where we spotted him that afternoon. The ride is currently undergoing rehab, and I suspect Francisco is enjoying the temporary peace and quiet!
There's a lot to see at the Disneyland Resort this year; in addition to things mentioned above, there's also a new World of Color show, and in March my daughter and I have tickets to attend a Disneyland After Dark event, "Princess Nite."
