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 Utah: Wasatch Parc Snow Tubing

My kids had a blast tubing at Woodward Park City, so we decided to try out Wasatch Parc Snow Tubing, which is bobsled-style tubing.  

Snow Tubing at Wasatch Parc was a lot cheaper than at Woodward Park City, and it was a very different style.

Unlike at Woodward Park City, where you get to the top of the hill via magic carpets, your snow tube is hooked onto a cable that pulls you up while seated, and at the top, you push yourself down once you get the go ahead.
Being able to sit while getting pulled up to the top gives you a bit of a rest, and a lot of people, including my kids, had fun throwing snowballs at each other on the way to the top.  

There are two lanes that riders can go down, and the staff there was constantly grooming the snow and rearranging the end-of-lane pads (that make you slow down) to ensure a great experience while also keeping people safe.


A helmet is recommended, but I didn't see anyone wearing a helmet.  I did see some people end up upside down and nearly flip over or they flew out the end of the tube lane and were stopped by a team member (so as not to crash into nearby tubers), but there were no real concerning incidents, and everyone had a blast.


Tubers were flying down the lanes, but the staff did an excellent job in ensuring the safety of all around.

The kids got way more rides in the 2 hours than they did at Woodward Park City, and they had so much fun.  

Note: There are only portable restrooms on site.
