Hey everyone!
Well I'm here safe and sound following the usual airport events of overweight baggage, motion sickness and being switched flights! I have to recommend United airlines-they put us on an earlier flight meaning we got to LAX 6 hours earlier than planned! Still the 24-hour trip to LAX has resulted in major jet lag so very early mornings and nights are being had!
The first 2 nights we stayed in downtown LA where we spent Monday at the regional information center getting information for all round California and walking around the Staples center and LA Nokia Live. We went to see Michael Jackson 'This is it' in the cinema it premiered at beside where he was rehearsing for the London concerts as there is not much to do in downtown LA. On Monday night we went to see a basketball game in the Staples center between the LA clippers and Minnesota Timberwolves.
Tuesday was a day of learning firstly how to drive an automatic car, secondly how to drive on the right side of the road and thirdly how to drive in the middle of LA!!!! A nice lady in Hertz decided to change our assigned car from a Nissan Versa to a brand new silver Mazda 3! Following a few random unplanned emergency stops in the car park we managed to make our way from LAX to Anaheim-which without the USA map on my Tomtom would have been impossible.
So at the moment we are staying in Anaheim which is south of LA downtown and home to Disneyland! Theres 2 parks in Disneyland California so we went to the Disneyland Park (equivalent to Magic Kingdom in Florida) on Wednesday. It was great-not too hot and no queues! Loved the Disney Pixar parade you can see in photos-the costumes are unbelieveable. Thursday I went to Downtown Disney and did a bit of shopping. They've got their Disney Christmas decorations up already and its weird cause its so warm here but they are getting ready for Christmas!!!! More to follow on Disney/Laguna Beach before we leave Anaheim.
Enjoy the pics,
Love Kimberly xo
