There can be no doubt that Disneyland has shaped a lot of our culture today. It has set the standard in animation that every graphic design firm in Toronto and anywhere else seeks to emulate and surpass, although few do. It is hard to find any quality children's entertainment that is not a product, includes a product, or is influenced by a product of Disney in some way. When people take a vacation to a zip code in Los Angeles, you can bet that one of the most important stops will be the Happiest Place on Earth. But what exactly can you expect to find there?

We will take a look at the specific attractions in a moment, but first it is well worth it to comment as a person who has been there on the quality of the Disney experience. The staff throughout the resort are amazingly competent and it is clear that in their training, they have been told the Disney spirit is to pervade the experience for every visitor. From those managing ride lines to those providing clean up, the friendliness of every Disneyland staffer is something that should be copied into every staffing and food public relations campaign.

Make no mistake about it, on any given day those staffers are hard put to keep up the atmosphere. Disneyland is not only the happiest place on Earth, it is also one of the busiest. Some of the rides are much more popular than others, and it's important to have a good strategy in mind especially if you are going with your family. It is a good idea to go from one popular ride and wait in line for an hour, then take the time to tour one of the theme areas for a while, then go back to another ride. One thing you will notice is that lines here are not the same as in many places; no one is ever actually standing still. Expect to be in motion the whole time.

The park includes eight different theme lands, all with their own unique attractions. People familiar with Arlington TX townhouses will feel right at home in Main Street USA, which is based on the suburban neighborhood of Walt Disney's childhood. New Orleans Square and Frontierland also commemorate America's past.

For those looking for a more creative and imaginative edge to their experiences, Tomorrowland, Toon Town, and Critter Country are the right stops. Tomorrowland is not an exploration of electronic contract manufacturing and the other mundane realities that the 21st century has brought us, but rather the future through the creative lens that made a place such as Disneyland possible.

And of course if you want to see exotic places without the hazards so often left out of Internet marketing, Toronto based campaigns, you can always plan a day in Adventureland. Politically and biologically incorrect, this land offers everything we all wish the exotic was!
