The next countdown begins!

Universal, Knotts and Disneyland

Yesterday, we spent the day at Universal Studios. 

There was a bit more action on the lot than when we have been there in the past - two TV shows being filmed plus two TV ads. 

We also got to see the new Springfield area and to eat a krusty burger. It was awesome!

Following that, we spent an hour walking along Hollywood blvd, then had a tour of Beverly Hills and headed back to the hotel. 

Today, we spent most of the day at Knotts berry farm. It was packed with kids, which surprisingly made it more fun than last time!

Tonight we headed to DCA (the other theme park in the Disneyland resort) and wandered around for a couple of hours. Disneyland had closed early for a media preview for tomorrow's 60th event so DCA was packed. 

Disneyland

We arrived in Anaheim yesterday evening, it's so good to be back!

Today we spent the day at Disneyland, I think we spent about 10 hours walking today.

The park is already decorated for its 60th anniversary, which starts this Friday with a 24 HOUR PARTY!

We visited the petting zoo (of course!) and patted lots of goats. 

At lunch, we were sitting near one of the Jonas brothers. Apparently Mariah Carey was there today too but we didn't see her. 

Tomorrow we are off to universal studios yay! For now, we are resting for the rest of the evening, as even more walking tomorrow!

Time to start another countdown! YAY

Today as our last day in Anaheim, so we spent it at Disneyland and Disney California Adventure. 

We started with another character breakfast which was FUN!

Then rode our favourite disneyland rides and the disneyland railroad. 

We spent the afternoon at Disney California Adventure, riding our favourite rides there. 

Once again my face on the radiator springs racers was rather entertaining. 

We met Donald!

And rode the toy story midway mania ride. This photo of the Mr Potato Head made me laugh. 

Aaron rode California Screamin again. 

And I rode the carousel haha. 

We went back to the hotel for a break then back to disneyland for a bit. There we shopped and rode the jungle cruise. 

We went to the Cove bar at DCA for dinner, including a yum cocktail for me. 

Then went to our seating for World of Colour, an amazing light and water show. It was so impressive! The pictures below were all projected on water being shot in the air. 

Tomorrow we fly to Vegas for our final two nights in the US. Can't wait!

Universal and Hollywood

Today we went on a tour to Universal Studios. 

We had a pretty awesome day doing the usual things you do there, like rides:

did the studio tour,

saw some cool stuff from Back to the Future

saw the animal actors show,

met Juice, who was in The Proposal,

and watched the Waterworld show. 

Following Universal, our tour bus went to Hollywood Boulevard.

This was particularly amazing tonight as the road was closed for Paul McCartney to perform a concert in the middle of the street for Jimmy Kimmel Live. There were so so many people there so we had to watch most of it on big screens but it was still amazing. He performed lots of Beatles and Wings songs. Pics are blurry but here's a couple.
