My first Walt Disney World vacation was in 1976, and my first Disneyland experience was in 1995, when I moved to Los Angeles. I am a bi-coastal Disney nerd and proud of it!

Moonlight Magic at Disney California Adventure

Posted on December 10, 2019April 8, 2022

Welcome to the Lucky Fortune Cookery! A week ago, my family and I visited California Adventure to attend the Oogie Boogie Bash. We decided to grab an early dinner before the party started.
