For lunch today from #AwardWieners , I tried the plant-based Philly dog, topped with mushrooms, grilled onions and peppers and dairy-free crema. For some reason, I hadn't expected there to be a hot dog, just the vegetables. That might have been better, as the hot dog had zero flavor. None. I ended up having to put mustard on it to give it some flavor. It's not the first time I've encountered a plant-based product devoid of flavor, even something as simple as just salt. I don't get it. 1/2
I also tried the asada fries - filmstrip fries topped with marinated carne asada, cheddar cheese, cilantro and onions, with salsa de arbol and guacamole. I enjoyed this, and the guac was particularly good. #AwardWieners#DisneyCaliforniaAdventure 2/2
We finally found the new Big Al sculpture, with the help of friends. We'd gone looking for him last week but I'd thought he was in a different place, and we apparently walked right past him without seeing him because we were focused on something else.
He's situated in the Disney Vacation Club space just across the #GrandCalifornianHotel entrance into #DisneyCaliforniaAdventure . The lockers have been moved further up the path, and they're free for 2 hours while you go on Grizzly River Run. 1/2
Our friends discovered that if you wave a Magic Band or touched Big Al with it (we didn't quite figure out what the trigger was), he would talk or sing. Pretty cool. #CountryBearJamboree#DisneyCaliforniaAdventure 2/2
Got to see Dug today. His talking collar works too. There was a little girl who was so incredibly happy to see him. She didn't want to leave. #DisneyCaliforniaAdventure#UpMovie 1/2

While we were waiting for the fireworks last night at #Disneyland, we noticed the dark circle from the first fireball in #WorldOfColorOne at #DisneyCaliforniaAdventure floating overhead. We were hoping that the winds would blow the right way so it would ring the moon, but alas, it was not meant to be. Might need to sit on Main Street at some point to follow a ring.
We went on #PixarPalARound yesterday, and we rode the non-swinging gondola. Some of our other friends decided to ride the swinging one. So Dug from #UpMovie came charging at us periodically, but always with a smile. #DisneyCaliforniaAdventure
