Exciting news has just been shared by the folks at Disney. Disney theme parks will be opening back up in a little more than a month following weeks of declining Covid-19 cases and hospitalizations in the United States.

Our summer trip schedule is already set with getaways to Glacier National Park, Canada's Banff and Jasper Parks and the Columbia River Gorge. Disneyland will have to wait until 2022, which is a huge disappointment for my wife who happens to be one of the biggest Disney fans I've ever come across.

Both Disneyland Park and Disney California Adventure Park will open April 30 with a limited number of admission allowed in the early stages. News of new additions to the parks were recently shared to the public as well. Disney's Grand Californian Hotel & Spa will reopen a day earlier, one April 29.

"The Happiest Place On Earth" is just a 750-mile drive from southern Idaho. Will you be packing up the car and heading southwest this summer?
