My wife and I have been wanting to go to Disneyland for a while. We've been twice before and have had the itch to go back recently. We have tried to plan, but due to managerial bumbling at work and some health issues, we only found out on Tuesday that we are clear to go on the weekend we wanted, October 13-18. We have a hotel room near the park booked, tickets purchased, and found reasonable flights, but now comes the hard part...all the other incidentals. We of course will end multiple nights at Trader Sam's. That is already part of the plan, but this will be our first time in Anaheim/LA with a rental car which gives us the freedom to check out a couple other places. Therefore, I want to go to Don The Beachcomber for dinner one night and a quick trip to see Oceanic Arts on one of the days (as well as hit a couple Disney collectibles stores that our fellow Disnerds have informed us about).

Here is where I plead to the Tiki masters for advice! Is this the best plan? Is there somewhere else we should check out instead? Mind you, we don't want to venture too far from Anaheim due to time constraints. Also I don't see any tiki events that weekend (and pissed we miss the Tiki Marketplace by only a couple days), but am I missing anything? If we do go, which night would be the best to go to Don?

Thanks in advance!
