Happy Anniversary Disneyland! I know that for a while we were all expecting the Happiest Place on Earth to celebrate its 65th by reopening, but it just didn't work out this year. 2020 is the worst, let's face it. But if you're feeling like you need a little Disney in your life and you need a reason to celebrate, there's lots of other things you can do!

Do Some Shopping
There's some good 65th anniversary merch available on ShopDisney, but act fast! When they held the special event for merch a few days ago, people were in virtual "waiting rooms" for most of the day with sometimes tens of thousands of people ahead of them.
