Visit Disneyland Resort: MagicBand+

  Not too many people had  MagicBand+  at Disneyland Resort, from what I noticed, but that didn't stop us from getting them.   You can use the MagicBand+ to scan into the entry gates or scan your Lightning Lane passes.  No need to take out your phone and open up the Disneyland app or your photos app for a screenshot of your admission ticket or Lightning Lane pass.  It's easy to sync the MagicBand+ to everyone in your party through the Disneyland app. It's rechargeable, and one full charge is supposed to last 1-3 days, but we'd charge them at the end of each night.

Visit San Diego: Balboa Park

While on our trip to San Diego, we visited a few other attractions in Balboa Bark in addition to the San Diego Zoo and the Reuben H. Fleet Science Center.

We stopped by the Zoro Garden, which is a butterfly garden.  Unfortunately there were no butterflies due to it being winter.

 The boys took a ride on the Balboa Park Miniature Railroad ($3 per person).
We all took a ride on the Balboa Park Carousel ($2.50/pp or $10 for 5 tickets).
We also walked around the grounds to see all the beautiful fountains and buildings.





There is so much to see and do at Balboa Park, and we can't wait to visit again!
