I once checked out a video entitled something like 'Disneyland Tourist Techniques' from the video section of my local library (which left 'The Sound of Music' which I didn't dare touch). Surprise! It actually had some useful tips for taming the wild beast that calls itself 'Disneyland.' Here they are to fulfill all you dreams:
1) Get there promptly when the park opens. Better yet, stay at the Disneyland Hotel and get into the park an HOUR before opening time. That's right folks!
2) Save the best for FIRST.
Go to the biggest, most popular rides first--saving the beginning of the park for later. While everyone is still hanging around Main Street near the entrance, you'll be scootin' yer little heinie onto the seats of the best rides in the park--with virtually no lines! All the suckers who save the big rides for later will have to stand for an hour or more in lines a mile long--literally, a mile long!
3) Go AGAINST the flow. When the herd stampedes in one direction, run in the opposite direction. If they seem to go counter-clockwise around the park, go clockwise and vice-versa. This way you'll avoid the most miserable areas of 'traffic' and you will have a relatively peaceful time.
4) WATCH YOUR BACK! (This is a tip of my own).
The last time I went to Disneyland I almost got 'mugged' by a girl with a toy gun. I was standing in a wild-west store full of overly-priced useless souvenirs, when I heard some slight creaking on the wooden floor behind me. I turned around and saw a teenage girl sneaking up behind me with a toy pistol that makes a loud noise. Can you believe that! She was gonna make me jump, startled. Well, when I turned around she turned really red in the face and ran off giggling. What was she thinking?! Maybe she thought I was cute or somethin'. The moral of the story folks? YOU NEED TO WATCH YOUR BACK EVEN AT DISNEYLAND! Leave a Comment

When visiting Disneyland, you absolutely must get the 'Fast Pass' provided that there's a lot of people there. If you don't get those fast pass, you'll be spending most of your time waiting in line which can dreadfully take up to two hours for just one single ride.
Meeting Mickey, Minnie, Pooh, Goofy, Donald, and the whole lot. Pooh is shoooo cuddleeyyy He's shooo shooofttt awwwww Leave a Comment

No, I've not been to Disneyland Or Knott's Berry Farm (in nearby Buena Park) or to any of the attractions. But I've certainly enjoyed the sun of Anaheim! I keep returning to a large event at the Anaheim Convention Center -- the largest on the West Coast of the US Leave a Comment

Having a Carls Jr treat in the home of Carl!
Anaheim is the physical and sentimental headquarters of the beloved Carls Jr fast food restaurants. The founding family of the chain restaurant, the Karchers, is quite famous locally with the late patriach Carl Karcher, having appeared on advertisements.
Carls Jr is popular along with McDonalds, Burker King, Jack in the Box and other fast food restaurants with hamburgers as the main menu item. Burgers from Carls are charboiled and fairly distinct in overall taste (at least burger lovers here do tell a difference!).
There are at least three Carls Jr restaurants in Anaheim and several throughout California. The one closest to the Carls Jr headquarters is at 401 Carl Karcher Way.
Alllow a little indulgence of mine here :-) :
Nowadays, I rarely order a burger, but every now and then I go for one. Much more though, I love to get the Santa Fe chargrilled chicken sandwich, arguably the best, close to gourmet chicken sandwich one can get at a fast food joint! Though much on a fast food menu is not so healthy, one has to give some kudos for this sandwich to be featured. For one, the bun is wheat bread over white. Also, the chargrilled children is better than the greasy fried chicken. Lastly, it has a big grilled green chile for the southwest "Sante Fe" flavor. There is a zesty southwest sauce and cheese added to it as well but the cheese can be left out and the sandwich still has great flavor. Leave a Comment

Whilst this is not a favourite thing, I did not know where else to put this piece of information. However it would be favourite with parent's as there is a lot of walking around for toddlers to do.
There are Strollers and Wheelchairs available for hire, as too are Braille guidebooks.
More information on this at the Information Centre just inside the entrance. Leave a Comment
