Disney Day

So today it's Disney time. It opened at 8:00 so we were there when it opened. Not quite as busy as i thought it would be for a Sunday. Most rides had a 15-20 minute wait time with the execption on The new finding Nemo ride that had a 45 minute wait.

Weather was HOT again today with temperatures in the mid 90's!

Hotel Number Six

Quiet day today. Decided to give Disneyland a miss today as it was Saturday. Just did a bit of shopping and then sat by pool and relaxed for the rest of the day before heading into Downtown Disney to see Richard Cheese at the House of Blues.

Hotel Number Five


Finally made it to the Hotel Menage (no rude gags please). The Room is nice and large with a 42" HD plasma TV. No nice view this time, but in Anaheim, there aint much to see.

Paramount Studio Tour


Today we started out with a 2 hour tour of the Paramount Studios. It was quite interesting and although we didn't actually see anyone famous they did let us onto a live set of the TV show Everybody Hates Chris.

Asked the guy at check-in for a view of the Hollywood sign, and we got it, although in this panoraamic picture it's not very easy to see.
