It's a new, clean, small Disney theme park that is very different from Disneyland. The place revolves around California's culture of beaches, agriculture, Hollywood, etc. The rides are not many, but very cute and picturesque in that Disney manner. The place is very very small, and you can play around for about half of the day and you're done.
Highlights include the Aladdin musical and the roller coaster. I thought the musical would be a dinky 5 minute special for kids, but it was in a beautiful theatre and the show lasted almost an hour. It is totally worth going there just for that. The roller coaster is actually not lame as expected, and has a very refreshing feel to it.
Prices are high for only a CA Adventure ticket, and it's not really worth the $50-something price. If they ever have specials on tickets, go then.
