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.

Visit Utah: Donut Falls Snow Play


On our first full day in Utah, one of my kids wanted to build a snowman.  So, I Googled Snow Parks, and found out about the Donut Falls Sledding area in Big Cottonwood Canyon.

We actually lucked out finding it, as we parked where there were several other cars parked, as families were walking with sleds.  



We simply followed the crowds to a sledding area, then found a spot out of the way to build a snowman!

We knew from previous experience how difficult it could be to build a snowman, and it took us about 90 minutes, especially since the snow wasn't soft.  


There were lots of people sledding.  I personally thought the hill was steep, and just the thought of having to walk back up each time made me tired, but we saw a number of kids having a blast sledding.    

The area is called Donut Falls because there is a trail to the actual Donut Waterfall.  I noticed some people went on to the trail, but we did not want to hike in the cold and deep snow, especially in an unfamiliar area.

It was a fun morning of snow play! 

Note: There are restrooms.
