☀️🥵 How to Survive Disney During a Heatwave! 🥵☀️

It is HOT HOT HOT in Anaheim right now, with an excessive heat warning & temps of 40 degrees. Florida is also no stranger to the heat, known for hot, humid summers and higher temps in general compared to California. I am NOT a fan of the heat and am most comfortable in the low 20’s - yet I survived trips to both theme parks this summer! And not only was it smoking hot, but the parks were busy. Read on to see how we survived the heat & crowds!

☀️ Mindset is key - expect it to be crowded in Disney. Always go in expecting 10/10 crowds, go in with understanding that you will be weaving your stroller around people who have stopped in the middle of a walkway, kids will be running everywhere, and all paths will be congested. I know it seems silly, but changing your perspective will help you enjoy your experience more. Accept that everyone is there alongside you, trying to enjoy themselves in the happiest place on earth. Everyone is doing the best that they can. Don’t let yourself get frustrated as then you will be the grumpiest person in the happiest place on earth.

☀️ Cooling towels, mini fans & misting fans are key to surviving the heat. A UV Umbrella is a game changer! If you have a family member who is especially heat sensitive (🙋‍♀️), consider getting them their own items. If you are more tolerant of the heat you can likely share items. If you arrive at your destination to discover the weather has drastically changed and it will be hotter than expected, don’t worry! Amazon in the states has same day delivery on most items, and worst case scenario you can buy Disney branded cooling towels & misting fans at the parks (the misting are about $22 USD). The packing list in my client guides has my tried & trues linked!

☀️ Pointing the neck fan down my shirt & a handheld misting fan at my face - combined with Uv Umbrella when I was in the direct sun - was KEY!

☀️ Know the spots with shade or fans in each park. I have a list of these in my client guide under the section that is specific to surviving crowds & heat! These spots include Animation Academy in California Adventure & Great Moments with Mr Lincoln in Disneyland; Hall of Presidents in Magic Kingdom. Don’t forget Redwood Creek Challenge Trail in California Adventure.

☀️ Book dining reservations strategically if you know you will be traveling during a hot time of year. Having a 1 or 2pm lunch reservation (or mobile ordering well in advance for this time) will offer you a break from the heat and the crowds.

☀️ Take advantage of water rides & splash pads at the parks! Grizzly River Run & Kali River Rapids are rides with a high likelihood of getting wet. These rides will be busy so remember to book a Lightning Lane or use Single Rider!

☀️ Pack breathable, quick dry clothing - sometimes comfort over style is best. I find skirts the most breathable to wear, and my daughter likes wearing dresses. Bike shorts are also a hit. Avoid dark shirts and make sure all bottoms are super breathable.

☀️ Take mid day breaks. Your overall enjoyment is more important than the hours spent at the park. Spending a few hours at the hotel pool will be just as fun (and more relaxing) than going on a few more rides & will lead to a more pleasant evening when you return to the park once the temperatures are lower that evening

☀️ Hats, sunglasses & don’t forget to reapply sunscreen every 2 hours!

☀️ Know where you can get free ice water refills throughout the parks - I’ve got a list in my client guides at the very top of the dining section! You can also pop into a restaurant and ask a cast member for a glass of ice water if you are really in need. Remember your electrolytes! 😅

☀️ Crowd etiquette- Walk with the crowds, not against the crowds, and don’t stop in the middle of a walkway. Stop to the side. Don’t cut off strollers or scooters & keep your kids in the stroller if it’s particularly crowded where you are.

☀️ Remember that Disney is 👏🏻not all about the rides👏🏻. If Lightning Lane return times are forever away, standby wait times are long, take a break and look at the many other attractions & activities that are available both in and out of Disney theme parks. Resort hop if in Walt Disney World. Listen to the pianist in the lobby at the Grand Californian Hotel. Check out the Animation classes at California Adventure & Animal Kingdom. Watch Turtle Talk with Crush at Epcot & California Adventure. Canoe through Rivers of America or take the raft to Tom Sawyers Island. Check out one of many shows. Shop on Main Street. Disney is so much more than the rides - that’s easily forgotten but should be at the forefront of everyone’s minds during their visit.

I am just 24 short days away from sailing to one of my favorite places in the world - Hawaii!

We leave from our home port in Vancouver and will spend 10 nights aboard Disney Wonder. The first 5 nights are at sea, then we spend 2 full days in Kauai, and have full days in Maui and the island of Hawaii as well (on the Hilo side). Pinch me!!

Disney offers cruises between Hawaii & Vancouver twice per year. Aside from the sailing I’m headed on (which is on a huge promotion, if you can swing a last minute trip to paradise) upcoming sailings are:

🌺 February 24-March 5 2025
🐠 September 23-October 3 2025
🐢February 16-26 2026

🏝️Fun fact: before or after these sailings, Disney Wonder voyages through the South Pacific to Australia on 14-15 night sailings. Can you imagine a back to back sailing, from Vancouver all the way to Australia?!

➡️ Here’s where I need your help! I’ve been to Hawaii MANY times - every island! But as of now, we don’t have much planned in port. I have some ideas, but I would love to hear yours!

🍍Kauai, Maui, Hawaii (Hilo area) and of course Oahu - what are your favorite things to do, eat and see?

✨Let's chat about Park Hopping at Disneyland & Walt Disney World✨

🔷First up, let’s talk size because it’s a game changer when deciding whether to add Park Hoppers to your tickets. If you’ve only been to Disneyland, stepping into Magic Kingdom for the first time might blow your mind. You could fit all of Disneyland into the Magic Kingdom parking lot and still have space to park 500 cars! Walt Disney World sprawls across 27,000 acres, while Disneyland is just 500 acres—that’s about 51 Disneylands fitting inside Disney World!

Calling Walt Disney World massive is an understatement, but don’t let that scare you away from park hopping. With a solid strategy, park hopping can be an awesome perk at any Disney destination.

🌎 PARK HOPPING AT WALT DISNEY WORLD 🌎

Is Park Hopping worth the extra cost at Walt Disney World? For most, I’d say probably not, unless you’re all about thrill rides and staying at the parks after dark. Walt Disney World is massive —it takes time to move from one park to another, and the parks themselves are so big that you might not even feel the need to hop elsewhere.

Do I park hop with my family? Absolutely! We’ve been to Walt Disney World so many times that we enjoy bouncing around during the day, knowing exactly what to skip and what to ride daily. Imagine starting your morning in Animal Kingdom, relaxing in the afternoon, and ending the night with fireworks at Magic Kingdom—magical! Our dream day? A ride on Guardians of the Galaxy, Flight of Passage, Expedition Everest, Rock'n'Roller Coaster, Tron, and Big Thunder Mountain (plus the newly added Tiana's Bayou Adventure). All of these attractions are in different parks, so park hopping is a must for us.

But for a short trip and especially a first-time-trip, I don't think it's necessary.

However, I would still consider park hopper if you will be in the parks for more than 6 days.

Another note, if you are traveling with a family group & you know that some of the adults will be staying back at the hotel in the evenings with the kids, but some of the other adults may want to return to the parks, I would hands down get Park Hoppers for those adults. A perfect example is this: my Dad doesn't like to spend full days at the parks. We return to the hotel in the evening, have dinner & get the kids settled. We use Lighting Lane Multi Pass to book 3 attractions with evening return times. We return to a different park (or 2!) and go on 2-3 rides in a row thanks to Lightning Lanes!

🎡 PARK HOPPING AT DISNEYLAND 🎡

Disneyland Resort is a whole different story. Disneyland and California Adventure are separated by just a small esplanade/plaza. We’re talking a 90-second walk from gate to gate. California Adventure usually closes at 10 pm, and Disneyland at midnight. The nightly spectaculars are timed so you can see both in one evening. Plus, because of the parks’ proximity, you can time your Lighting Lane selections to ride most attractions in both parks in a single day.

💰 COST OF PARK HOPPING 💰

At Walt Disney World, you’re looking at around $100 USD to add Park Hoppers to your tickets, though the price varies based on your ticket length. The cost is per ticket, not per day.

At Disneyland, the Park Hopper add-on costs between $65-$75 per ticket (again, not per day).

A lot of people get confused about the cost of Park Hopping—it’s per TICKET, not per day. Whether you buy a one-day ticket or a multi-day ticket, the Park Hopper upgrade is a one-time fee. I think it’s one of the best values you’ll find at Disney!

💥 LIGHTING LANE MULTI PASS & PARK HOPPING 💥

This is where Park Hopping really shines—the Lighting Lane Multi Pass costs the same whether you use it at one park or multiple parks. This applies to both Walt Disney World and Disneyland. If your priority is maximizing your ride count each day, you’ll get the most out of the Multi Pass by adding Park Hopping to your tickets.

✨MY OPINION✨

At Disneyland, hands down, I recommend Park Hopping. The convenience of going back & forth between the parks and being able to fully maximize the price you pay for Lightning Lane Multi Pass makes it worth the cost. The 2 parks are vastly different, not just the rides & theming, but the extras like Animation Studio, and the unique (and much better) food selection at California Adventure. It’s an excellent value for your money. Even if you just use the Park Hopper to ride your favorite attractions at California Adventure and grab a meal, it’s totally worth the cost, especially with a multi-day ticket. The only time I wouldn't recommend it is if you are doing a 2-day ticket.

Walt Disney World will always have my heart, but Disneyland wins major points for the ease of park hopping!

At Walt Disney World, whether Park Hopping is worth it depends on so many factors, as I mentioned above.

Remember, these are just my opinions, but they’re backed by lots of visits and lots of research 😉.

Do you love Park Hopping? Do you save the $ and put it towards something else? I would love to know!

✨ I got back from Disneyland Friday and you know what that means? It’s time for a Disneyland Trip Roundup! 💃

4 of us Glow agents met in Disneyland & although our kids and families had varying interests and park flows, we met for meals and other fun experiences and had an amazing group trip! With 11 of us there (5 adults, 6 kids ranging from 3 to 9) it gave me a great sense of how an extended family trip would work and how I can help my clients plan their trips when their groups have varying ages and interests.

Here’s a recap of what we did:

😲 Surprised Stephanie’s kids at YVR- they thought they were flying to my house, so we tossed them some matching shirts as they walked into the airport & said “let’s glow to Disney!” (corny pun courtesy of Stephanie). We checked into Courtyard Marriott Theme Park - CMTM is my #1 booked good neighbor hotel and my second stay there didn’t disappoint. This is the perfect hotel if you want a nice stay with great amenities and location, but budget doesn’t allow for on property. After some waterpark time (and settling disputes over who was getting top bunk) we headed to Downtown Disney to check out the D23 atmosphere. No celebrity spottings, but we enjoyed burgers & milkshakes at Black Tap and a dance party with the live musicians.

🧱 Legoland on Saturday! We wanted to check out Legoland not only because the kids keep asking, but as travel professionals we wanted the first hand experience to share with our clients. The kids really enjoyed themselves but from a value to reward perspective, we weren’t impressed. More on that to come. Now the primary purpose of us having a rental vehicle was so we could go to Shake Shack (I’m only half kidding) so we (again) had burgers and shakes for dinner - incredible, as Shake Shack always is.

🏖️ Beach day Sunday! Or, that was the plan. In the end we had a lazy morning, we drove to the Bosa Chica Beach area to grab lunch at Chick-Fil-A (fact: Chick-Fil-A is closed on Sundays 🤦🏼‍♀️) and instead we grabbed some pizzas and scarfed it down while driving back to the hotel because the kids wanted to go to the hotel waterpark instead of the beach. In their defense, it was either foggy 🌫️ or smoggy🔥& also hot hot hot, so it wasn’t really an ideal beach day. We still had fun visualizing the area and exploring a new part of California - and I can officially say that I have driven the entire coast from San Diego to Malibu now. The kids enjoyed the waterpark and I played ER Nurse for a bit after a mom & child had an accident and the poor lifeguards didn’t know what to do (in their defense, the injuries were beyond the scope of a basic first aid course). I rushed to return our rental vehicle after and then it was time for the first Glow meet up!

We met Marina & Celine at Great Maple Modern Eatery, a fairly new restaurant located at Pixar Place Hotel. The kids loved checking out Pixar Place before dinner! Everything was great at dinner - Great Maple is under rated for sure. This was my second time dining there and I’ve enjoyed it both times so don’t skip it! 🥞🍳🧇Breakfast for dinner? Yes please!

🏨 Monday was our first day in the Disneyland Parks! I was mostly excited for the kids to stop asking “when are we going to Disneyland?” In retrospect, it was a bit of a tease to say “we are going to Disneyland!” and then not actually go for 2.5 days. We started at California Adventure & all 4 kids wanted to ride Guardians of the Galaxy first! What a way to start our day! We enjoyed lunch with the whole group at my favorite restaurant in the parks - Lamplight Lounge. Tried and true, I dine here every trip, and those potato skins and 2329 drink just never get old. Strawberries, coconut and - coca-cola?! Somehow it works! 🍹 We maximized our use of Lightning Lane Multi Pass to an extreme, checking just about everything off of our must-do list for the entire trip on Monday. Pretty impressive considering the parks were packed post D23. We had an “early” night around 9pm, opting to skip fireworks as we had a big day coming up!

🏰 Tuesday morning was a blur as we headed to the parks for early entry - because we were changing hotels and checking into the Villas at Disneyland Hotel! You are eligible for early entry even on check in day, so we structured our split stay to maximize this benefit. We headed back to Courtyard Marriott just before 11 and transferred our luggage to Disneyland Hotel. Stephanie’s room was ready ✊ so we enjoyed the air conditioning before heading back to Disneyland for Droid Depot & the lunch portion of our Fantasmic Dining Package.

The kids loved building their Droids in Galaxys Edge. The experience felt a bit rushed, like it was a mad panic to get them built, but the kids had fun and haven’t stopped playing with their droids since (I’m sure they will be collecting dust on the shelves at home in no time).

We had lunch at Rancho Del Zocalo, which is the least expensive option for the Fantasmic dining packages ($35 per adult; $25 per child). Service was slow but the food was better than expected - it was quite good, actually - and we took our Fantasmic vouchers for the 9pm show and continued on with our day. It was hot, so we headed back to Disneyland Hotel for a pool break & had dinner pool side, ordered from the Palm Breeze Bar.

I absolutely LOVE Villas at Disneyland Hotel; especially the pool area. This place has a VIBE. If you are staying at the standard Disneyland Hotel, you can use the Villas pool and splash pad (and vice versa) so make sure to check it out and tell me if you feel the vibe too!

We made it back to Disneyland just after 8 and got ourselves situated to watch Fantasmic in the viewing area reserved for dining package guests. Disneyland was PACKED and were we ever glad to have a dining package. Fantasmic was great and the kids all stayed awake unlike the last time. We stayed in place to watch the fireworks to finish our day.

Not every trip to the happiest place on earth is happy, and my son was having an off day. I decided that we would skip early entry the next morning in the hopes that a good sleep would help, so I set our alarms a bit later and crossed my fingers!

🎢 Wednesday - after a sleep in, we joined Stephanie & her kids in California Adventure around 930am. Although we missed rope drop, the park wasn’t too busy (compared to previous days). We had a fairly easy going day, with a lunch reservation at Carnation Cafe (yum!) and dinner at San Fransokyo Square - Lucky Fortune Cookery for me & Cucina Cocomongo Grill for Stephanie - enjoyed Lightning Lanes we had stacked during our mid day pool break, and called it a night - the last night of my 30’s!

Thursday - the big 4-0! 🎂 I woke up a year older and all I wanted was to arrive in time for early entry & take photos in front of the castle without crowds. Wish granted! We experienced the new downtown Disney security set up; with Disney hotel guests being let through security before 7am and non Disney guests being held back. That led to super smooth sailing for our morning! We took photos, enjoyed early entry, and a great morning in the park. It was our last day, and we all chose 1 must-do ride. Our goal was to get on: Big Thunder, Smugglers Run, Indiana Jones, Guardians of the Galaxy, Incredi-Coaster & Mickey and Minnie’s Runaway Railway 🤯. Every single one of those is a top popularity ride, but mission accomplished. Lightning Lanes and rope drop for the win!

🎡 The finale for the trip was World of Color Dessert Party! Before you ask if it’s worth it, I’ll say this: this was my third time doing it. Worth it? 100%! It’s a splurge but if it works with your budget, don’t hesitate! We felt like royalty and as always, absolutely loved World of Color - ONE. That show never gets old and is truly one of Disney’s bests.

We dug deep and went back to Disneyland for some more rides. Our day was pretty action packed, but SO fun. Honestly probably one of my favorite Disneyland days ever. Everything went smoothly and I felt so lucky to be celebrating my birthday in Disneyland with such great friends!

🥞 Friday - It was Stephanie’s son’s 9th birthday, so Friday was all about him! We packed up our luggage and had the bellhops collect it from our rooms, and headed for a birthday brunch at Goofys Kitchen. In the last year, I’ve tried out every character meal at Disneyland (some twice) and Goofys is my favorite! The food spread is varied and good quality (not fine dining, but good for a buffet) and it’s super kid friendly! The characters are fun and the kids love it. After brunch, we headed to the airport in a shuttle. Our travel day continued to go smoothly, and we made it home about 11pm.

Courtyard by Marriott Anaheim Theme Park Entrance

Now that Disneyland 2025 packages are finally available for booking, here’s my insider scoop on the best times to visit:

🌟You deserve a Disneyland trip that’s perfectly timed, and I’ve spent years analyzing crowd patterns, hotel availability, and attraction wait times to help you achieve just that. While things can always change, here are the times I’d recommend for your 2025 visit!

☁️ January/February: Expect cooler weather and less pool time. Late January and early February usually see lower crowd levels, though they do spike during the 3rd week due to BC Family Day and Presidents Day on February 17. Be prepared for potential refurbishments.

🌸 March - Dare I say that early-mid March hasn't been so bad the last couple of years? The weather starts to get warmer, and because of the varying Spring Breaks throughout the USA and Canada, although the crowds are moderate, they aren't even close to the busier holiday periods.

💖 May - Mothers Day week in 2023 and 2024 was an incredible time to visit, and I anticipate the same in 2025. The weather is perfect, the crowds are low-moderate, and the refreshing feel of spring make this an ideal week to spend in Disneyland.

☀️ August/September - It's hard to throw predictions out without knowing what the Halloween schedule in 2024 will do to crowds, and if they will continue the late August start for Halloween in 2025. Historically, late August through end of September has always been a good time to visit, but Oogie Boogie Bash definitely causes peak crowds in the parks on the 3 days a week that it is offered. It can be quite hot in these months as well. You can take a gamble and go for the last week of August, but my advice? Budget for Park Hopper tickets and expect refurbishments.

🎃 October - Halloween week is a fun time to visit the parks, and historically the crowds have been reasonable. After October 31, the Halloween decor starts coming down and the Christmas decor starts going up. This is the "in between" where there might not be special fireworks or parades, but the benefit is that the crowds are usually a lot lower.

🎄December - Basically the week after USA Thanksgiving is over (starting November 30), the crowds will drop a little bit. This is the perfect chance to experience the parks with the magical holiday lighting and festivities, without the 10/10 crowds that mid-November and mid-December through New Years bring.

✨Other tips for selecting your travel dates:

✔️Avoid weeks with Canadian or USA holidays.

✔️Steer clear of the first 3-4 days after the Magic Key calendar reopens, as these days are usually packed with locals and Magic Key holders who’ve just had their blackout dates lifted. This is probably the biggest indicator of crowd levels, in my opinion.

✔️Above all, pick when works best for YOU. The truth is, Disneyland always has crowds. I’m here to help you make the most of your visit, including using the Lightning Lanes effectively. With a solid understanding of how to use the Lightning Lane Multi Pass, you can minimize wait times for rides, even during peak periods.

👇If you’ve made it this far, I’d love to hear from you—have you ever experienced Disneyland during the busy season? And if you’ve never been, what are you most curious or excited about for your first visit?

✨WALT DISNEY WORLD LIGHTNING LANE MULTI PASS & SINGLE PASS✨

🎢The Lightning Lane Multi Pass has been out for a few weeks at Walt Disney World, and I was there for the first 4 days experiencing it first hand. Now that the dust has settled, some of the early kinks have been worked out, and we have more data gathered, I feel confident in sharing more information about Lightning Lane Multi Pass & Single Pass systems.

🤔Let’s do a quick recap. Genie+ is no more, it has been replaced by a more simpler Lightning Lane Multi Pass. Individual Lightning Lane is no more, it has been replaced by the term Lightning Lane Single Pass. This new terminology is effective both at Walt Disney and Disneyland, BUT at Disneyland the functionality and strategy has not changed at all. Walt Disney World is a completely different story & that’s what I’m explaining in this post.

📲Walt Disney World guests can now book 3 Lightning Lanes per day in advance of their trip. Guest can book 7 days in advance if they are staying at a Disney resort, or 3 days in advance if they are not. Both pre-booking windows allow you to book for the length of your stay, up to 14 days maximum. There is a fee for both the Multi Pass & Single Pass, which varies based on day and demand. For example, at Magic Kingdom I paid $28 USD per person and at Animal Kingdom I paid $18 USD per person. EPCOT and Hollywood Studios were somewhere in between.

🏆During the advance booking process, you choose 1 ride from Tier 1 and 2 rides from Tier 2, for a total of 3 advance Multi Pass selections. Animal Kingdom doesn’t have any tiers, though!

🤗Each park also has 1 Single Pass attraction (Magic Kingdom has 2). These are available at an additional fee, which of course varies based on day and demand.

✌️Once you have scanned into your first attraction, you can book another. Repeat, repeat, repeat. You can have a max of 3 Lightning Lanes booked at one time. No more stacking, no more setting your alarm to book something every 120 minutes. The system is simple, more efficient, and overall you can book a lot more in your day especially in the evenings.

Is it worth the cost? Absolutely, in my experience. Here’s why:

1. I entered the parks with a plan. Yes, it took some advance planning, but don’t we always plan our park days a little bit in advance anyway? I liked walking into my park day knowing that I had one top tier attraction booked as well as the other tier two options.
2. I felt WAY more relaxed. No more staring at my phone, trying to strategize what to book when and in how many minutes I could book another. When I had my 3 Lightning Lanes booked, I could focus on being present in the moment and didn’t need to set an alarm.
3. I was able to book way more attractions compared to the old system, especially at Magic Kingdom and Animal Kingdom. Epcot was a breeze, and Hollywood Studios worked well too (although 2 days there would help if you want all of the rides and shows).

🪇Sure, there are nuances to the new system. It benefits those with long stays, whereas those with quicker trips will struggle to get the Tier 1 rides like Tiana’s Bayou Adventure and Slinky Dog Dash during the advance booking window, as they’ve sold out from those with longer trips. Afternoons felt stale - there weren’t many options, it seemed that after the morning times were gone there was only evenings left. The perfect workaround this is to plan lunch dining reservations instead of dinner, and a mid day pool, resort touring or Disney Springs break!

📕Strategies to work around the nuances is what I’ve been studying. All of my Walt Disney World clients will have access to the special Glow With Me Adventures Lightning Lane Multi Pass & Single Pass Guide which has the strategies to make the most of your time at Walt Disney World. Remember, pre booking isn’t the only time you can book Lightning Lanes for the attractions. There are a lot of factors to consider, and we’ve got it covered in the guides. Additionally, I’ll be coaching all of my clients ahead of their pre booking windows to make sure they are set for success on the big pre booking day!

🥳Amanda Perez - Glow With Me Adventures will be in the parks next week, testing out our strategies and further finessing our guide and support we offer all Glow clients. Make sure to give her a follow!

⬇️What do you think of the new Lightning Lane Multi Pass and Single Pass system? Do you like the idea of prebooking 3 attractions in advance, or does the thought of pre planning stress you out?
