I wouldn't recommend staying in Los Angeles. It's not necessary and there's few nice places to stay in the city. Santa Monica is a wonderful place to stay with lots to see in that area. It's a good 30 min drive from Hollywood/Beverly Hills at most times of the day though. If you wanted...

Does anyone know what the music is that's played during the IASWH lighting show thingy? It's the Nutcracker Suite I think, but which part :confused3

I am so with you on that one! Tis even worse when you're nursing the jet lag from hell :sick: I don't like this land. Waaahhhh, I want the Disney one. What do you mean you want me to do work and I have to cook everyone's dinner and make my own bed?? Hmm, maybe if I squint hard enough...

... you ask him if he knows who Tweedle Dum and Tweedle Dee are and he says "Yep. They're the queen's henchmen." :rotfl:

Hiya all ... back home and posted the rest of my trip report if anyone wants to see how the rest of the holiday panned out. http://www.disboards.com/showthread.php?p=22177027 What an amazing time we had. You guys all rock. Thank you again for your words of support and advice :cheer2:

Okay I posted the rest of my trip report http://www.disboards.com/showthread.php?p=22177027 I put it in the California Trip Report section since the last part of the trip was non-Disney. I am sooooo suffering from post-Disney blues :sad1: It doesn't help that my screensaver is a collection...

Day 18 Plus - Going Home :sad: Sigh. Hometime. Get up at 5:30am and bravely run from the warm warm bed to the cold cold bathroom. Have an extra long, extra hot shower and think about the epic journey ahead. Drive 3 hrs down to LAX, fly 10 hours to Tokyo, hop off then straight back on...

Man, jetlag is so much worse coming this way than going over. I am a wreck today. Got me a nice hot cup of green tea. Now where's my Graham cracker. Oh. That's right. We don't have them here. This country sucks. Why are they called Graham crackers? They're not crackers. They're half...

Day 14 - Universal Studios On the drive up to LA it dawns on the kids that this would be the last theme park of the trip. Moaning all round :) Then they see Knotts out the window as we pass by, which doesn't help. Parking at Universal is easy because it is DEAD. Nobody around. We head...

Dude. Hit return and suffered premature posting. That's what jetlag does for ya. Anyway ... this is the third part of my trip report but since it is all non-Disney related I am being a good girl and posting it in here instead of the Disneyland trip report section with parts 1 and 2. But...

We were there last Sunday and it was so quiet we had to sit waiting on the tram for more people to come along

Awww, you guys sure know how to make a gal feel welcome :flower3: Hmm surely can do post some pics ... er ... if I work out how ;) Don't think they'll be opening a Disneyland Australia anytime soon :rotfl2: That would just be so wrong anyway. Trust me, I've been to Outback Steakhouse...

We just stayed there for 15 nights and it was really great. The staff are so nice, housekeeping are just wonderful (:rotfl2: read my earlier trip reports to see why :rotfl2: ) and the whole place has a really relaxed vibe going on. I don't have any pictures for you, but I did find some good...

Hey guys! Just walked in the door after leaving LA FORTY HOURS AGO and travelling a looooooong way home via Tokyo and Singapore. Have no idea what time it is or what country I'm in :) And why is it raining here? It's supposed to be summer :confused3 Is it a bad sign that twenty minutes...

Yeah I was a bit annoyed also that the 5-day ART pass has to be used consecutively. My fault I guess for not asking, but I assumed that it was just five days worth of ART use, and that it scanned each day as you used it. But as you say, the first time you use it the scanner imprints the start...

Yay! I'm glad you found some bargains. It was exactly why I posted it, because I was in the same frame of mind, not sure whether to go then quite glad that I did. I agree with tinkcollector, it's a good idea to have a look there before you buy your souvenirs from the parks, I found some of...

And bye bye America! Cookiedude and all the little Barfers are leaving for Big Bear tomorrow morning for a few days of snow, then off home to a hot hot hot Australian summer :( We leave a lot thinner than when we arrived :lmao: but oh what a wonderful time we've had. Thank you from the...

Yes they had some pins but not terribly discounted. Mostly from the 50th, I think. I saw some around $6-$7? I don't collect pins so I didn't pay a lot of attention.

Just in case anyone's wondering about whether to go or not ... They have loads of tees and sweatshirts, most very generic Disney or Disneyland logos, you wouldn't know they were old stock unless you hang out there every week :p Roughly around $15-20 off the in-park price, seemed like a good...
