Was thinking it would be fun to have to make random day trips to visit the parks throughout the year.

We have the Pixie Dust pass, and go once or twice a month. Can’t go weekends but that’s fine. We have far less block out dates than we did with our Magic Keys at Disneyland before we moved here, plus parking is included at all parks, and we have a 10-20% discount on Disney dining and shops. We take the turnpike to 429, which is an easy route compared to any other route there. It takes us just an hour to most of the parks or Disney Springs where we went just this past Tuesday. We do go early for park opening most of the time because we rent ECVs due to arthritic knees/hips and they tend to run out of them within an hour or two of opening. Very likely we’d have more traffic to get there most days if we were going later in the day. The difference in the drive there for the same amount of miles as we had to Disneyland in Calif is unbelievable. An hour here compared to 2.5 hours there due to traffic. The only time it was ever closer to an hour drive in Calif was coming home at midnight in our younger days with our kids.
But I digressed… sorry. Get the passes you won’t regret it. 😊
