There’s going to be more “Frozen” stuff in California Adventure starting after New Year’s. “Frozen” will take over the Animation Academy, the Muppets theater, and the building between the theater and the “Monsters, Inc.” ride. It sounds like it’s going to be similar to what was done in Disney’s Hollywood Studios last summer.

Personally, I thought “Frozen” was fantastic—up there with “Beauty and the Beast” and “The Lion King.” A novel twist on the Princess-in-distress films.

Of course the kids are going nuts over it. More than half the girls in costume at the Disneyland the last time I was there were dressed as Elsa, and most of the girls dressed as Anna were there with an older sister dressed as Elsa. My daughter’s kindergarten had three girls dressed as Elsa, and only one as Anna. I told her teacher that in five years, she’ll have a student named Elsa.

My daughter was 6th to meet them when they first appeared in Disneyland—3 weeks before the movie opened. (She knew they were Elsa and Anna, but didn’t know who was who.) After the movie opened, the line to meet them hit 2 hours, and over 5 hours in Epcot-Norway. Now, the “Maelstrom” ride is being updated to be “Frozen”-themed.

Last time we were in Disneyland, she met Hiro and Baymax, so she might be over “Frozen.”
