Travel Guide Updates for PassPorter's Disneyland Resort and Southern California Attractions -- First Edition
(first edition, released May 2006)

These updates were current as of 2/22/2007. Visit http://www.passporter.com/customs/bookupdates.htm again for the most recent list of book updates. 

Reminder: These updates do not include every new thing at Disneyland as that would require an entirely new book to explain (we expect to release our second edition in fall 2007)! Instead, this chart only lists the pages in PassPorter's Disneyland Resort and Southern California Attractions that would be out-of-date or incorrect without this information.
