Day 4
We went to breakfast at Ihop. It was pretty good I got a fruit salad and Ricky got Pancakes and they were huge we both didnt finish our meals I don't think, they were huge!

I know we then walked around downtown Disney for a while we were both not feeling too well I think we still had a little jet lag and we were really tired.

We went to Disneyland for a little while and explored toon town and just took out time we caught the train and explored toon town.

We went back to Down Town disney for lunch and went to Rainforest cafe for lunch.
Ricky had the Beef wrap I had the Chicken we also had some type of frozen cocktail.

Day 4 Part 2.

We went back to the hotel for a little rest. before we headed to world of colour!
We were in the yellow section and got a spot on the rail in the second tier it was a good spot until the people next to us who were saving spots pushed us along because there family of about 40 people want to sqish in too!
So we ended up with still a good view but a light post in come of the pics, but here you go i got some ok shots of the WOC it moves so fast that i do have a couple of blury ones!

I absoluty loved WOC it almost made me cry. I teared up a little! Im pretty sure Ricky liked it too but he isnt as emotional as I am so who knows lol,

We went to Anaheim garden walk for a late dinner and had California Pizza Kitchen. After dinner we walked back to the hotel but decided to get Cold Stone I had some Strawberry Banana Ice cream and it was was i stuck with for the rest of the trip!! I think this was the night Ricky had an Oreo Choc something or other....

Day 5

We went to Knotts today and as much as I liked it, it is going down hill a little. Not all of the rides were going and its getting a little bit more and more run down. However we caught the Greyline bus just did the knotts day trip and got there before opening. So Ricky and I shared a Cinnabon!! Oh god how I love cinnabon!

We wandered in and go in line to go through the gates and get our bags checked.

I think Ricky enjoyed the park although he really doesnt like pictures so I have to force him to have them and as you can probably gather im the person behind the camera....Ricky thinks I love having my photo taken but I just like being in and catching the moment

We walked around the park for a few hours and then went out and had lunch at Mrs Knotts Chicken dinner restraunt. It was about a 45 minute wait but i really wanted it so we just waited in the line. It moved rather quickly.
Here is our lunch!

We both had the same the chicken dinner with potato and corn. We also both had sprite.

After Lunch we wandered around some more and rode a few Rollercoasters we went on the Xccelerator every other time I had been to the USA this ride had been closed. Now I love coasters but I was scared about this one watching everyone else on it and coming off with jelly legs made me nervous.

Well we walked right on and sat down and for the First time ever I got sweaty palms and my hear was beating about 200 beats a minute lol.
I dont have a scanner at the moment so will have to put the ride picture up later its Hilarious.

And here are just a few other rides and pics.

This last picture is a picture Ricky and I took while sitting in the ricking chairs outside the park.

I love the way we made the light looks on the black and white!!

When we left the park we both fell asleep on the bus on the way home! we were meant to be going over to House of blues in Down Town Disney but we were both exhausted.

So we got some dinner watched some tv and went to bed.

OK Day 6.
We Started the day off by having breakfast at Goofys Kitchen. We had our Customary photo with Pluto then headed in.Breakfast wasn't as good as I had remembered it actually it was quite average. Here are some photos.

After Breakfast we went back to disney for the morning! Ricky Tried a dole whip for the first time and I had another one after longing for it for 18 months
Then we headed into the Tiki room:

I love the Tiki room and continued to sing the song for the rest of the day. (actually I have started singing it again now! )

After we wandered around Disney for a little longer it was time to go an pick up our hire car.

I hired the car for 3 days so we could drive around and have a look.

We only booked the cheapest car from Alamo anaheim. Well didnt that turned out to we wonderful because we got to Alamo and they didnt have any economy cars there so we ended up with some giant luxury car Buick Lacross..

It had heated seats and electric everything it was amazing!! Although I was very scared driving it because it was bigger than my car at home and it was so luxury that i didn't want something bad to happen plus I was also nervous about driving on the wrong side of the road again!

I think we went back to the block for dinner tonight and had TGI fridays but I cant remember because i dont have pictures of dinner

Day 7,

Ricky and I headed to Six flags. We spent a few hours here and I ended up with a Migraine so we had to go home.

We stopped at Citadel for Dinner at Ruby's Diner and did some shopping.

We love outlets. I think we ended up leaving around 7pm.

Then we got stuck in a horrible traffic jam trying to get back to Anaheim.

Not a very exciting day we only got to go on a couple of roller coasters before I got sick

Onto day 8.....
