Me and friend go to disneyland a lot...some days its crowded and we dont like having to wait in long lines..so were stuck bored..until we find something to do.
For people who are in the same boat s us here are some thing that can help you have lots of fun tehre.
1: Pin Trading.
pin trading is something fun for kids and adults.buy a couple of pin and go around the parks looking for the pin you have been looking.This fun Cuase sometimes Cast Memebers have pins from Disneyland HKDL and other places around the world.
2: Playing Pirate:
after the opening of Pirates Lair Silver Xs started showing up around New Orleans what u and your party can do divide or go into individual groups and go looking for the Xs.

Well, I can't speak for DLR, but I can for WDW.
I usually end up chatting with CMs in VMK Central and making tons of born in park accounts to get those black ears :)

seriously you should all do this next time you go...
look for people that are celebrity look-a-likes.
Say you are walking down main street or waiting in line for It's a Small World. You see a man walk by that looks like... that kid from Home Alone... or Gary Coleman... or Mike Tyson... or Sharon Osborne... Whatever tickles your fancy.
It's the most fun when you have others with you so that you can point it out to all of them.

I've documented the last 9 out of 10 trips to Disneyland with a mini-tape recorder, including my most recent to Finding Nemo yesterday. Not only do I give updates throughout the day which keeps the events perma-fresh, but I've recorded nearly every ride which gives me an instant Disney fix whenever I need one. But the biggest part of these "Disneyland Chronicles" is using this recorder to approach complete strangers (both guests and cast members) and introducing myself as a "Disneyland Jr. Reporter". What follows next are often very random questions, puzzled answers, some great anecdotes, timeless lines, and a lot of laughs. It's a great way to break the ice and talk to people that normally would have remained anonymous faces in the crowd, and it's really cool to make other people a part of your trip and give them some unique memories as well. I wonder if anyone goes home and talks about the weird guy who asked them if they've found Nemo and if they've then accepted him as their personal swimmer...
(On an unrelated note.. I have 999 happy posts..but there's room for a thousand! Any volunteers..?)

Well, usually my family and I head over to Space Moutain and get a fastpass. And then we ride it sometimes. Then we head over to Fantasyland and ride Peter Pan and Mr. Toad, the rides with the longest lines. And also the Matterhorn. Since we went after Christmas time, like in Feb. or something, haha. I got this notepad with Cinderella on it from my uncle :). But anyways, I used it to write done all these facts I found out. Like random things I saw around the park and stuff. It was really fun!
