Our Afternoon at #CarsLand in Disney’s California Adventure

By Christine

Today was a big day for Disney – it literally “just got happier” with the opening of CarsLand and Buena Vista Street.

And we got a sneak peek!

We first visited Radiator Springs and Rte 66…


But, somebody got very cranky.


Radiator Springs Racers is a ride you won’t want to miss!

Look who’s happy now…


I had the privilege of meeting and interviewing Kathleen, a Disney Imagineer… Stay tuned for a video of my ride with Kathleen.


I even filmed a fun webisode, complete with an appearance from Mater! You won’t want to miss it, so check back soon.


Of course my afternoon would not have been complete without a visit from Mickey…


And, becoming an honorary candy maker was quite the treat!


Ben and Noah were excited to see Donald, while I was hard at work… having fun!


Are you planning to visit CarsLand this summer?

I can’t wait to share all of the fabulous footage I got from this magical place. And I’d love to hear about what you think of CarsLand after you visit!

    I LOVE California Adventure, but think I will wait another year to visit again, once my youngest is a little older and more able to handle a day full of Disney. 🙂

    Carsland looks fantastic! My oldest just asked me about it the other day. I didn’t even know it existed. We live on the East Coast so I’m not sure how soon we could get there, but all the boys are begging now! 🙂 Your webisode was great!

    After meeting you at Conversations With Coca-Cola this week, I had to check out your blog – what fun! (Of course I headed to the “Disney” section first… cause that’s how I roll 🙂

    This space is gorgeous inside and out, just like you. Your header pic is a total hoot! Love the concept you have going here, and I’ll definitely be reading and following for some good advice. (I think our last date was in 2010…?!)

    Hope I get to see you again!
