You can’t beat the magic of Disneyland, and at Southern California’s most popular amusement park you get a lot of fun for your buck. Plan on spending a full day, or more if you have the time, if you want to have a go on all the best rides and check out all the park’s areas. If you time your visit to coincide with 6-8 October this year you can make the experience a whole lot gayer by joining other LGBT people for Gay Days Anaheim ( gaydaysanaheim.com). The group began organising the event when Disney cancelled their own gay and lesbian get-together back in 1998. Now over 30,000 LGBT people rock up, wearing red t-shirts, and although not officially endorsed by Disney, the park is still super-supportive, making for a magical mix-up of queer Disney fun.
