Some of the rides at Disneyland are so popular that the regular queue can have a waiting time of up to 100 minutes. Waiting in long lines means you have less time to spend on other activities that you may want to see. So make sure you take advantage of Disney’s FASTPASS to cut down your […]

We arrived late last Wednesday night so it was too late to go over to Disneyland, however we were up bright and early the next morning. Breakfast was taken in the hotel, nothing special, couple of eggs and 2 slices of bacon with toast.
Before you head off to the Disneyland park check if your hotel […]

We head down the road at about 10am and not all the stall holders have set up as yet. After strolling down through the rides and stalls we go up the […]

After reading some of the reviews on the internet about Tijuana we have decided against going there today and instead we went into the Gas Lamp district to have a look around.

Breakfast is provided by the Best Western Hotel so we were up early to make the most of this before heading out to take a look around. The Best Western Lamplighter Inn & Suites is in a good position if you have a car, which of course we don’t. So if you are like us and are relying […]

We are up early today so that we can fit in our last buffet breakfast before heading to the airport. Played a last round at the Wheel of Fortune but lost once more. Sad really as we have been having such a great winning run on this machine.
Our flight to San Diego is with US […]

Tonight was an absolutely awesome experience, we have just arrived back at the hotel after seeing
Elton John at Caesars Palace.
Our seats were on the second mezzanine, in the middle, three rows back (row C seats 409/410) but the theatre is built in such a way that everyone has a fantastic view. Elton was fantastic, […]

While we were in San Francisco we decided to stay at Holiday Inn Express - Fishermans Wharf. (This hotel is not to be confused with the Holiday Inn Hotel & Suites - Fisherman’s Wharf which is right next door.)
We actually got a great deal through Hotwire which included return airfares from Las Vegas and 5 […]
