Happy Birthday to Disney's California Adventure Park
 

On this date in 2001, Disney's California Adventure® Park officially opened for business in 2001. It's hard to believe it has been nine years already.

And some day soon, they hope to make it an interesting destination.

Soon. I hope.

NINE???

I miss the parking lot. <sigh>

I've held an AP for 9 years. Wow.

Curious about those who don't care for the park.......will it ever be good enough? I agree it hasn't been pretty to look at, and has been rather sparse, but they sure are investing a lot of money in it at present. Larger, nicer to look at, more to do. Does anyone here think the investment being made will make them like the park?

Yes.

I'm fine with the park. Not Disney's greatest but better than a parking lot.

But at this point in my Disney consumerist life my opinion isn't particularly relevant.

We'll see. It may work or it may just be putting lipstick, well not even lipstick more like clear lip gloss that we're so used to from Disney, on a pig.
:D

I will say that it's a great place to have a few drinks. And after those drinks the park's appeal does seem to improve.
