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. Another fun thing about the MagicBand+ is that it'll blink and flash in all sorts of colors depending on where you are, whether at certain rides or shows.  You can also use to link PhotoPass photos and other experiences. It's totally not a necessary thing to have, but it's a nice-to-have for the convenience.   One thing I did read prior to getting them is that they have a tende...

Visit Maui: Kea Lani Restaurant Breakfast Buffet

Kea Lani Restaurant offers a great breakfast buffet that left everyone in our family happy and full during our recent stay at the Fairmont Kea Lani.  We were hosted to breakfast each morning we were there, and had a bounty of delicious options to choose from at the Breakfast Buffet ($59pp++ ages 13 and up).  

Each day I went straight to the Omelet Station, where not only did they have omelets with a number of filling options, but they also had their signature Maui Moco, as well as Steak and Onions!


Of course there were plenty of typical breakfast options, like fruits, eggs, sausage, bacon, toast, bagels, oatmeal, parfaits, and lots of pastries!










You could even opt for eggs Benedict, potatoes, or salmon!


There was also a poke station, cheese and charcuterie, and salad station!




There were also many Asian dishes to choose from, like shrimp or kim chee fried rice, dumplings, miso soup, bao buns, and yakisoba noodles. 




There was even a little section for kiddos with mini muffins, pancakes, French toast, and waffles!

My fave buffet option was the Maui Moco - you must get it!  The braised short ribs are so tender and it's truly comfort food in a bowl.

My kids loved the pastries - there were so many varieties!  

The buffet also comes with coffee, tea, milk, or juice.

I felt like the buffet options have gotten only better from previous visits, and the new al fresco dining area creates an even better ambiance (gone are the colorful lasers to scare away the birds - the birds still do come, but they didn't seem as pervasive as before).

Saturday was way busier than Sunday, and we happened to get the same server both mornings, and she was always very friendly.  

We loved starting our days at the Breakfast Buffet at Kea Lani Restaurant!
