I havent been to Disneyland since I was 6 years old and for my 16th birthday my parents want to take me and my boyfriend for a week, and I was just curious, is there any 'must see' rides or anything that is Aladdin related??

I know that Kirsten and Iago (and I feel like I'm forgetting somebody that lives out there Confused

) can help you out more than I can (I've never been - just heard wonderful stories *sighs*), but there's the Aladdin: A Musical Spectacular at the Hyperion Theater at DCA. There's also some kind of Aladdin story time somewhere out there in DCA, I believe. And then they have the Magic Carpets of Aladdin and I believe those are at DL. That's all that I can think of, but there may be more - like I said, I've never been there personally - can't convince my parents that it's worth a flight across the country to go to DL when WDW is a few hours drive away.

Yes, I've been to WDW several times. I can't tell you which one's "better" since I've only been to one, but from what I've read - most people seem to think that each park has it's own advantages and disadvantages and are both good. WDW also has The Magic Carpets of Aladdin like DL does. And WDW Tiki Room is "Under New Management" and Iago and Zazu run the show (well, Iago does more of the running and Zazu tries to stop him Laughing

). I love that show. Laughing

at disneyland theres nothing really aladdin related as far as rides are concerned. the only think there really is aladdins oasis which is basically a story telling show but i dont know any more than that ask kirsten. i've only sees aladdins oasis once and thats becase my friends kid brother draged us in there Rolling Eyes

now at disneys california adventure its a whole different matter. theres the aladdin musical spectacular a live stage show which is so freaking awsome heres a link with more info on it made by kirsten go figure Laughing

The lines for Dumbo are just as long even though we have the Carpets and the Dinosaurs which are essentially the same ride. Well, that shows you what an expert I am on DL DCA - I thought you had that too. Laughing
