Bit of a lie in then we get breakfast which is included, we eat it on our balcony, its nice but a bit noisey. I have half a bagal and half a muffin, the muffin is really nice so I let DH have the other half and he also has a choc chip scone. We get ready to leave and hit the road again, we drive along the coast through Malibu (no celeb sightings) and Santa Monica. We headed inland through Beverly Hills and into Hollywood. We drive past the Kodak Theatre and Mann's Chinese Theatre then attempt to get a photo of the Hollywood sign.

We drive to Anaheim and check in at the HOJO. We have a disney view room which is quite large but noisey because of the busy room and has some huge windows above the regular windows which don't have curtains on making it very light. We head straight to DTD and eat at the same place we did on our first day in 2005, it was good food but we had a very over zealous waiter. Its the middle of the afternoon so i'm not expecting a wait but they say it'll be 5 mins, given the restaurant isn't even half full i'm a bit surprised by this and other people are waiting as well, the staff all just seem to be hanging around. We finally get seated and I have lasagne which is really good and DH has pepperoni pizza. When DH finishes they clear his plate and ask if we want dessert even though i'm still eating, which we decline. The minute I put the last mothfull in my mouth the bill appears on our table. I'm not happy being rushed out. We do a tour of the shops then head back to the hotel.

Back at the hotel we changed into some warmer clothes then headed to the Honda Centre to watch our first ice hockey game, it was the Anaheim Ducks v the San Jose Sharks. We had a great evening with lots of goals and fights, we noticed that the refs don't always break the fights up. The Ducks won 6-2 with their top scorer getting a hat trick so all the fans through their basecaps onto the ice, it was also the players 50th goal and so they made all hats 50% off. With all the stoppage it meant we got back to the hotel much later than planned so we didn't get to watch the fireworks from our room.
