Los Angeles: Disneyland has apologised to its visitors for the inconvenience caused due to a power outage at the theme park in Anaheim, California.

At least a dozen rides and attractions were shut down shortly after 11AM, on Wednesday because of the sudden power outage. Park officials attributed the outage to a transformer problem.
