Today is the 10th Anniversary of the Disney's California Adventure theme park, + so I thought it would be appropriate to write a review for one of my favorite attractions in the park: Blue Sky Cellar! Hidden in plain sight right next to the Wine Country Trattoria + Golden Vine Winery http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/22CN0apqFPYqIeMtsAiazA?select=25DcI383IxAfI1ugJVm5Ww, most park visitors + even many Disneyland junkies have never heard of or been to Blue Sky. But trust me... it's worth spending about 10 mins of your valuable theme park indulgence time to take a peek inside to see all sorts of artwork, models, notes + a video about what's in the future for DCA. The content inside the small gallery is updated every few months as DCA is always building something new to enhance the park + wants to show their visitors what's going on behind the "under construction" walls. When I first discovered Blue Sky, I believe that was when Toy Story Mania was still being built, + the only peeks you could get were either here or from atop California Screamin'. Then in 2009, majority of the boards along the walls featured artwork + stages of development for World of Color http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/22CN0apqFPYqIeMtsAiazA?select=s8k81jts2JuzmQ8zdtaEvg. Following that was the renovations on Paradise Pier (the Silly Symphony swings + Mickey's Sun Wheel) http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/22CN0apqFPYqIeMtsAiazA?select=6LvFEx0h58vN36Cfn3gYTg. Now, the featured exhibits are for the upcoming Little Mermaid ride http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/22CN0apqFPYqIeMtsAiazA?select=k83tZomTkc8tO5MTi9RuVQ, Cars Land + the continued park renovations at the main gate + in Paradise Pier as Disney is making efforts to rebrand the park with the old Los Angeles feel from the days when Walt Disney was alive. Blue Sky makes me love the Disney parks even more than I already do because in the future, when I finally do ride the new Little Mermaid ride or step foot into Cars Land, I'll already have formed an appreciation of all the brilliant work from the Imagineers that went into the development of these attractions. Be sure to check out the small viewing area in the back that shows a video of sneak peeks + interviews that overview the next upcoming attractions. Happy 10th Anniversary Disney's California Adventure, + I'll see you this weekend! =)

While shopping around at Downtown Disney, my family and I found the Wonderground Gallery in the…read moreDowntown Disney District. It's a boutique styled gallery and shop. The gallery specializes in Disney themed artworks, prints, collectibles, housewares, accessories and more. You can browse through framed pieces, posters, mugs, and other merchandise that blends classic Disney magic with art. The gallery also features a drawing station where sketch artists create custom hand drawn art right before your eyes! When my family and I came in on a Friday evening after California Adventure, the Gallery was busy! We saw the large unique Collectible Magic Key! It was cool, but expensive. You could easily spend an hour here looking at all of the Disney art pieces. Over the years, the Wonderground Gallery has celebrated a variety of art styles and periodically hosted meet and greet and even signing events with featured artists! Recently the gallery was refurbished in 2024. Parts of the offerings were moved over to other Disney stores like the Disney Home store. If you're visiting Downtown Disney, I'd highly recommend checking out the Wonderground Gallery. Before taking pictures of the gallery, we did ask a cast member if it was okay, and we were informed it was good to take pictures inside the Art Gallery! My family and I enjoyed our time here. Discounts are accepted at the Wonderground Gallery which includes the Magic Key Holder Discounts, the Disney Vacation Club discounts, and the Disney Visa Cardmember perks.

I've bought quite a few items from here and it is very rare that I walk out without something! :) The only con I would say is that they don't do the same custom framing as Off the Page in DCA does. I wish they would because it would be nice to pick up my purchases without having to go into the park.

I am on a quest to visit all the museums in Orange County for the month of July. Today I visited…read moreMuzeo Museum in lovely downtown Anaheim. Muzeo is housed in two buildings. Right now building one, there is an incredible art exhibit on the history of skateboarding in Anaheim. It's awesome. I took so many photos lol. I used to skateboard when I was a kid. Loved every second of this exhibit. The second building houses so very cool artifacts from the 1800s to the 1900s reflecting the history of Anaheim. It was cool to go back in time to see the history of a place I called home. I saw the history of Anaheim vineyards and Valencia oranges, I saw a lot of information on the ranchos in Anaheim. The Anaheim street names are all named after very important ranchers and farmers in Anaheim. For example I saw the name of a rancher Don Bernardo Yorba who created the greatest rancho of California's Golden Age. No wonder we have cities like Yorba Linda and streets with name Bernardo. Fascinating stuff. Also, there was a video recalling the bicentennial which was July 4, 1976. It was a big deal. There were other artifacts like photographs and a typewriter, luggage and military uniforms. So much history packed in that museum. If you love to visit museums, Muzeo is one that you must visit. They provide validated parking in lots 3 and 5. If you are an Anaheim resident, the cost is only $8. Regular admission is $10. There are discounts for seniors, students and children.

Admission is $10 for adults and $7 for children. Toddlers are free. It's $1 per person if you have…read morean EBT card. Must present card and ID. Young ladies at ticket booths are helpful and welcoming. Right now there is a lowrider exhibit. On the other side of the museum (separate buildings) there's artwork and a small walk through of Anaheim history. Parking is free with validation. Just ask at ticket booth and they will give you a separate ticket to insert after initial ticket from parking structure. You'll spend less than an hour here. Nice museum for a one time thing.

I met up with a friend that I hadn't seen for awhile and it was the perfect place to catch up during a walk around of the garden. I loved the pond with the lily pads and turtles, and the Heritage House surrounded by orange trees and roses. I was impressed by the amount of orange trees. It reminds you of why they call it Orange County. If I went to school here I'd be here probably once a week. Otherwise it's great to come if you live in the OC.

From the parking lot it was easy to follow the signs along to the garden. The garden had areas that represented Woodlands, Mediterranean, Dessert, and a Cultivated Collection. There were walking paths but I still recommend closed toed shoes since it's a bit sandy. They had many benches throughout for resting or handing out and admiring nature. We spent about an hour here, but to be fair I'm not that into nature. I GOT A BUG BITE and it swelled and was super itchy. Sigh. I think someone who super loved nature or wanted to take their time to hang out could take 2-3 admiring all the plant life. My FAVORITE moments here was when we came across wildlife. My favorite were the rabbit, turtle, and crane. It's beautiful. Great spot to get some steps in and absorb some sunlight.

I wasn't sure if this was still happening!…read more I had to find out if it was. This art walk at downtown Fullerton is indeed still an active event. The downtown Fullerton art walk happens on the first Friday of every month. This happens all year round. It seems like the event was more popular maybe pre-covid? Not too sure. You can walk around downtown, and you will see signs put out for the businesses that are participating. It seems like the hours vary depending on the business. So, some were closed when we went. It may be a good idea to go during the day, so you can hit all of the places before they close. We got to see some art. It was cool. It's always fun exploring downtown Fullerton! Not bad for a free event. It's not something you have to run to go do. It was alright for what it is. A free event to do on a Friday, once a month lol

It was cool how everything was gathered in one place and there was a lot of festivities: photobooth, live music, food trucks, beer and wine garden, arts and crafts booth for kids, etc. The museum gift shop was also open to browse. Great atmosphere and nice to walk around, though I didn't really get involved too much with the booths. I was there mostly to browse and soak in the atmosphere. And to get grub from the food trucks, haha. The gathering was a lot smaller than I thought and I was expecting to see a lot more, but it's ok. I enjoyed the atmosphere. Parking was a breeze since they were set up right next to a couple of free public parking garages. All in all, the event provided some great atmosphere, but I'm not sure if a normal Artwalk would be for me. I suppose if I had nothing better to do on a Friday night and wanted to soak in some local art, I'd go again.

To be honest, it was mildly surprising to learn that Orange County has its own museum of art, if…read moreonly because not many of the counties in the Bay Area do, other than SF. Yet, at the same time, given the size and population of OC, it also makes perfect sense. Either way, I can't say I ever would've guessed it would be this nice, though! Just a shame that their exhibits didn't really blow us away... Located in the burgeoning arts and theater district of Costa Mesa, just down the road from South Coast Plaza, OCMA is such a gorgeous looking building. Sure, it helps that it's only a few years old, but the look of this place is no less impressive. Right out in front, there's a 65-foot art piece in the middle of the plaza that helps connect all of the neighboring buildings. Inside, there's a fairly large gallery space on the ground level with rotating exhibits, an upper level that appears to hold their more permanent collection of pieces, a coffee shop right next to the gift shop, and a rooftop restaurant with a large open area/garden. Sadly, though, as nice as the museum's design and amenities may be, though, much of the artwork was just okay. While the artwork upstairs was fine, the featured exhibits didn't really speak to us. Obviously, art is subjective, but one included pieces that appear to have just been drawn with a spirograph. The other consisted of several photographic series, whose commentary on social media I can appreciate, but felt exceedingly voyeuristic in nature - one following/semi-stalking a fellow after a chance encounter, another of strangers invited to sleep in the artist's bed so they could be photographed/documented, and a third showing the belongings of guests at the hotel she worked at. Artwork aside, the thing that I like most about OCMA is how admission is entirely free. So, in that sense, it's impossible to be too disappointed with the experience and/or what we saw. However, one thing to note is that you do have to pay if you park at any of the nearby garages, which are all unaffiliated with OCMA. For example, at the one on the other side of the Segerstrom Center, it cost us about $10 for two hours or so. Alternatively, South Coast Plaza is just a few blocks over and parking there is free, but I don't know how aggressive they are with towing and it feels like a big gamble just to save a few bucks. All in all, even though none of the exhibits were really our flavor, we still had a good time checking out OCMA. Oddly, there weren't many other visitors here when we arrived, but it did seem to get busier as the day wore on (there was a big group walking in as we were walking out) and we certainly didn't mind not having to deal with a bunch of crowds around. Plus, as nice as the museum looks, it's actually fairly small compared to others I've been to elsewhere. Since the featured exhibits have so much influence on the experience, I absolutely wouldn't mind coming back to see whatever they happen to have featured down the line. The ones they had when we were here may not have interested us, but the next ones might! Plus, it doesn't hurt that admission is free! All in all, THREE AND A HALF STARS rounded down.

When I went, desire then having lots of space very little was out to look at. It was free, so not…read moremuch room to complain. You do get more than you pay for lol.
