There is an air museum that is pretty nice & indoors! Also the Living Desert Zoo is neat but outside.

The last few years, my husband & I let his daughter invite a friend, or two, depending on location & cost, on our summer vacations. On trips in driving distance we paid for everything except souvenirs. Last year we flew to WDW & this year we flew to NYC & DC....for those we let her invite...

Also the natural history museum is just past the mission.

Not sure if you already went... 1) there are a few hotels in Solvang or Buellton, the next closest town, I've never stayed at any of them though 2)Santa Barbara pier 3)2-3 4)Nojoqui falls 1/4 mile uphill dirt hike, we were there a few weeks ago & it was only a trickle but still pretty...

That was too cute…and despite what you said, some of that stuff looked pretty crafty, creative, and just elaborate enough! Thanks for sharing!

Sorry it took so long but I finally posted the rest of my pics from my WD Studios Burbank tour in Dec. to the link in my first post on this thread if you want to see them.

Congrats! How many days do you plan on spending in the LA area? It's been a few years since I've been to a comedy club in LA, but I used to like the Ice House in Pasadena & the Laugh Factory in Hollywood. A couple other iconic places are the Comedy Store in Hollywood & the Hollywood Improv...

The Marriott downtown LA is within LA Live (Nokia Theatre, Staples Center, Convention Center), I would consider this area safe. Burbank is a really nice area of the San Fernando Valley & is really safe. Warner Bros. & Walt Disney Studios are in Burbank & Universal Studios is very close.

Santa Maria is way up the coast. Santa Barbara & Solvang are fun. They both have unique shops, restaurants, wineries. Solvang also has an Ostrich farm & a miniature horse farm to visit.

Where are you staying & what do you want to see? There is not much else to do in Simi Valley other than the Reagan library. 30-45 min North is the Camarillo outlets & then Ventura Harbor. 30-45 min South is Universal Studios & then Hollywood.

Hoover Dam may be the only thing you want to do in one day depending on how much you want to see & how much time you want to spend there. We just went there a couple weeks ago around 10am-ish & it took about 40 min to get there, we did the dam & power plant tour, looked around the outside of...

We bought Universal passes just before Christmas for $79 each. They didn't have any MM passes.

We belong to Worldmark by Wyndham & there is one in Anaheim about 1/2 mile from Disney near Anaheim Garden Walk. It's really nice & has free parking for guests.

Thanks! It was open to anyone, someone here posted the link, I think from the Disney Parks Blog. They had one screening a night for like five or six days in a row mid December. You were able to choose which seats to reserve in the theatre & once it was full it was sold out.

I was able to see Saving Mr. Banks at the Walt Disney Studios in Burbank, Ca thanks to someone posting the info on these boards. I was so excited to be able to go since the Walt Disney Studios is rarely, if ever, open to the public and I've always wondered what was inside those wrought iron...
