Whilst there are not any 'new' attractions here, two favourites have been re-imagined to fit within the new Pixar theming. In addition, Toy Story Mid Way Mania remains and there are some games to play linked into the Pixar franchise. In addition, in 2019 there will be Jessie's Critter Carousel.

The Incredicoaster
This attraction is definately a thrill ride and is available for guests over 48" to ride. It is the 8th longest rollercoaster in the world (3rd longest in the USA). It has a top speed of 55mph and has one inversion.

The theming fits incredibly well with the franchise and is a must ride daytime but also in the nighttime. Pixar Pal-A-Round

This is a re-theming of Mickeys Fun Wheel. Here upto six guests can share a gondola and there is an option of a fixed vehicle of a swinging one. There is no height restriction on this attraction. 

Food Offerings
There are four main places to get food that is themed around the Pixar franchises:

• Angry Dogs

• Senor Buzz Churros

• Adorable Snowman Frosted Treats

• Poultry Palace

• Jack Jack's Cookie Num Nums

On the show we chat in detail about the Poultry Palace as a good place to visit for a meal that offers a change from burgers or sandwiches.

Bad news - the shop is being refurbished. However, the good news is a new kiosk will pop up and enable us all to keep on buying our favourite Norwegian treats - including the school bread. It is due to open up this Summer and will be bigger and brighter than ever before!

Rose Gold Cupcake
Over at The Land Pavilion you can buy a cupcake themed to the much sought after gold ears. Packed with vanilla butter cream this cupcake is selling like hot cakes. However is it a question of style over substance as we feel the flavourings are a little bland with it being a vanilla and marbled chocolate cake with vanilla butter cream. I guess the only answer is to buy one whilst they are available and find out for yourself!

Paradise Pier Construction
We said farewell to Screamin' but you can keep on enjoying it as here is our very own front row video!

Lots of changes are coming to this part of Disney California Adventure - some this Summer and some a little later. On the show we discuss the proposed new logo and its reaction on Social Media.

Replacing the trolly tracks in Disneyland is making Main Street a real bottle neck. However, I like the information notices they put up on the construction walls.
