Disney's California Adventure:
Disney's newest theme park is now open!

Most would agree that the Disney company has never opened a U.S. park that could truly top the original Disneyland. Even the Florida sequel, opened just a few years after the death of Walt, did not stand up to the original in all ways. After years of the DCA project being blasted and picked apart on the internet, it is finally opened in 2001. Compare anything to Disneyland and you might be let down. Compare DCA to the recent Disney parks and you might be amazed. With that in mind we take a look at the newest U.S. park which opened as a tribute to California done with Disney style, then received a major facelift around 2012 to make it more of a Disney-style park.

Look for more reviews/trip reports and thousands of DCA photos to be added to this site soon! In the meantime, please check out the following DCA resources (with more to come):

• Laughing Place.com's DCA pages - the #1 site for all things Disney has an excellent overview of the upcoming theme park, including a great "tour" of what is expected to open in 2001.
• Mouse Planet.com's DCA preview site - the home of Al Lutz's Disneyland Information Guide has an excellent DCA section as well. This was probably the first DCA site on the internet.
• Disneyland Resort's Official site - and, of course, we can't forget the official source of information on this park.

If you know of a great DCA site that should be listed here, please let us know!
