The final day of Planes, Trains & Millennium Falcons – my October 2024 trip to California for Disneyland, Disney California Adventure & Universal Studios Hollywood – fell on my birthday, because I can’t think of a better place to celebrate my birthday than the Happiest Place on Earth!

I split the day between Disney California Adventure in the morning and Disneyland Park in the afternoon and evening, so this day was jam packed with returning favourites. I rope dropped Radiator Springs Racers, swung by Web Slingers: A Spider-Man Adventure again, dropped in on The Guardians of the Galaxy for Mission: BREAKOUT!, rode Incredicoaster again, went for a swing with Mickey Mouse on Silly Symphony Swings, had a Pixar Pal-A-Round on the ride that should forever be called Mickey’s Fun Wheel, went To The Rescue with Mike & Sulley at Monsters, Inc and breakfasted at Pym Test Kitchen!

Then it was a quick ride on the Disneyland Monorail to return to Disneyland Park for lunch at Alien Pizza Planet, before cramming in some repeat rides on favourites and a few I didn’t get to yet this trip. There’s Buzz Lightyear’s Astro Blasters, Mickey & Minnie’s Runaway Railway, Millennium Falcon – Smuggler’s Run, Roger Rabbit’s Car Toon Spin, Finding Nemo Submarine Voyage, Big Thunder Mountain Railroad, The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh and of course a repeat ride of trip headliner Rise of the Resistance!

Plus, I grabbed dinner at the River Belle Terrace, a final cup of Blue Milk in Galaxy’s Edge, took in Fire of the Rising Moons and got a front row seat for Fantasmic!
