Design magical vacations with this travel guide and planning system for Disneyland Resort and Southern California. This guidebook includes coverage of Disneyland Resort, nearby theme parks, and many popular attractions in Southern California. Fourteen built-in organizer pockets keep plans, maps, and memories all in one place, and the full-color travel guide includes everything you need to plan the perfect vacation. All Disney parks and hotels are described in depth, with ratings, floor plans, and maps. We've also included descriptions and photos of hotels near Disneyland, Los Angeles, and San Diego, as well as full coverage of the popular parks and attractions. Comprehensive information for planning, traveling, and dining is also included, along with an entire section devoted to extra-special magic. Design your vacation with the help of six planning worksheets, write your itinerary on the front of each organizer pocket before you go, store guidemaps, brochures, tickets, and receipts inside the pockets while you're there, and record expenses and memories to review and share when you return. This is the ultimate traveling companion for Disneyland and Southern California!

Formats: This guide comes in three versions. Our spiral version is least expensive with both text and pockets bound with a plastic coil. Our deluxe edition comes in our padded ring binder with 14 organizer pockets, similar to the deluxe version of our Walt Disney World guide. Our deluxe refill kit is for those who already have a deluxe ring binder and want to fill it with the text for Disneyland.

Availability: We expect to begin shipping this new edition around May 15, 2006.
