Virginia chats with Adam from Instagram’s “Dis or That'' about his upcoming trip to Disneyland with his family. This trip was initiated by his 5 year old daughter who is an experienced Disney World goer, but wanted to see what Disneyland was all about. Previous trips have included their larger extended family, so this will be the first trip to any Disney property with only their immediate family of four! They are looking forward to experiencing the roaming characters, visiting Cars Land, and comparing the Disneyland to Walt Disney World.
