Today at Disney California Adventure: Lunar New Year

The annual Lunar New Year Festival at Disney California Adventure started on January 23rd and runs through February 18th.

This festival is always a delight, and we paid our first visit to this year's edition after work this afternoon.

We arrived in the park just as Mulan's Lunar New Year Procession was beginning.

Since it's the Year of the Dragon, Mulan's pal Mushu is front and center in this year's celebration.

There's even a gorgeous stainless tumbler featuring Mushu, which I was glad to pick up tonight:

The new San Fransokyo area inspired by BIG HERO 6 (2014) looks fantastic after dark:

We stopped by the Redwood Creek Trail area to visit with Raya from RAYA AND THE LAST DRAGON (2021).

The decorations for this area are gorgeous.

Raya was delightful!

We'll be returning to enjoy more of the festival, including sampling some of the food booths, in February!
