San Francisco Trip (Day 9) - Disney Magic

We brought a 2 days pass to Disneyland, Hoping that we're able to complete touring these two parks with 1 day. For California Adventure Park, i cover most of the areas with 1 day mostly because there are quite a number of thrilling rides which i didn't really dare to take!!

Haha.. I'm just a scary cat!! Anyway at Disneyland there, rides are much tamer. And so much bigger than Hongkong's Disneyland. My only regret is that i didn't get a much to take pictures with Woody, Stitch and Pinocchio. Keeping my finger cross, I hoping that i can get to take pictures with these charathers when im going to HK's Disneyland again!! hahaha

Anyway here's the pictures....




And we started our first ride of the day with the vintage Fire-engine Car... It has a big bell and the end of the seat! haha...



I've simply too many photos to share.. so will break my post into many parts..
Once we enter Disneyland, taken pictures with Walt Disney & Mickey, the sleeping beauty castle.. We march straight into Tomorrowland.. Where Buzz Lightyear's ride, Finding Nemo submarine, Autopia and many more....




Buzz Light Year's ride is more of a shooting game.. At the end of the game, they will show you your marks.. and above photo is the score.. Hmm.. i can't remember my score liao but i know Mr Li's score is higher than mine.. Hahhaa, we did this ride in our 1st Disneyland visit in HK, and i scored higher marks than Mr Li.. hahahahahah

Ok.. After this, let go to Finding Nemo..

USA Trip - Los Angeles (Day 7) - Universal Studios

Start our day quite early.. as our hotel offer free breakfast so we didn't give a thought on where to have our breakfast. We grab some doughnuts than we're off to view the Hollywood sign.

Did my homework before i left and by far (from my research) that this place is the BEST place to view the Hollywood sign...

Address:
3000 Canyon Lake Drive

Just take a look at the photos and you will know...
Right after Kodak spot at the Hollywood sign, we make our way to UNIVERSAL STUDIOS!!



When Singapore's Universal Studios open, i didn't manage to get a ticket to get it thus i told myself that it's fated that i'll have to visit the one in LA!! hahahaha

Once we were there, we paid for priority parking that where we parked is nearer  to the park and i managed to save lots of queuing up time by purchasing tickets online. lol!



















   
Started off with the studio tour
The Studio Tour is a must go attraction at Universal Studios in LA. We qued about an hour
for a 45 mins rides but it's all worth it.. cos recently they include this new attraction on King Kong 360 degree. It's a 3D shown in a tunnel... It's really cool!! And for those who are Desperate Housewives fans.. Well, one could see their set too! hehehhe
Fast and Furious - Tokyo Drift (Effects)
