Let's talk about the real reason we go to Disneyland and California Adventure: the rides! I mean, sure, the characters are great, the food is alright (unless you're into overpriced churros), but let's be honest, we're here for the thrill, the chills, and the overall "I'm a kid again" feels.

Counting the Magic
Now, you might think counting rides is as easy as counting sheep. But trust me, it's like trying to count the grains of sand at the beach while being chased by a particularly enthusiastic seagull. Why? Well, Disney has a sneaky way of categorizing things. Is a show a ride? Is a character meet-and-greet an attraction? Does the smell of popcorn count as an experience?
QuickTip: Skim slowly, read deeply.
To simplify things, let's stick to the classics: the ones with tracks, drops, spins, and other adrenaline-pumping elements.
QuickTip: Use the post as a quick reference later.
Disneyland Park: This OG of theme parks has a solid lineup of old-school charm and modern thrills. We're talking about classics like Peter Pan's Flight, Space Mountain, and the ever-popular Indiana Jones Adventure. But let's not forget the newer additions like Star Wars: Rise of the Resistance, which is basically a rollercoaster on steroids. So, while I can't give you a precise number, let's just say there's enough to keep you entertained for days.
Tip: Make mental notes as you go.

Disney California Adventure: This park is like the cool younger sibling who's trying to impress. It's got a mix of everything from Pixar to Marvel, and the rides reflect that. You've got your family-friendly options like Toy Story Midway Mania and Radiator Springs Racers, and then you've got the thrill seekers' paradise with Guardians of the Galaxy – Mission: BREAKOUT! and Incredicoaster. Again, the exact number is elusive, but let's just say it's a healthy mix of fun.
