Let's talk about WHEN you should plan your Disneyland trip! I love how this episode reminds you that when YOU can go to Disneyland is the best time to go. AND, when it's super crowded, Disneyland pulls out all the stops to make it a great visit anyway!

This episode introduces one of my favorite Disneyland Experts -- Jessica Sanders from Happiest Blog on Earth and @disneylandplan on Instagram. She can even help you plan your next visit! What you can find on her blog:
