... impressed how good they sounded live.......pretty close to CD standard (but not as close as Britney!).

After the 50 mins of Buckcherry the main event came on. Kiss.
They hit the stage at 20:45 and the fireworks etc were pretty cool, but the music was as good. They were very tight for the whole gig and the audience were quite impressed with all songs, but as far as we are concerned it would be our ...

... sharks and turtles swimming around and coral on the ocean floor. We were then off to the Buss Light Years astro blaster, this was fantastic brought back the child in us all and was in 3D. We went around the ride on the train and had to use our laser guns to shoot the targets and get point to help Buzz. Haydn won of course. Next stop Fantasy land. First stop here was the Matterhorn bobsleds,this is a ...

Oooooh so sad, last day today. We each picked our favourite 3 rides to go on again today and we attacked D/L with a plan today. We were able to use their fastpass system which can get you into a ride without any waiting in line. D/L was sooooooo busy today those fastpasses were fantastic. Haven't used them before today - couldn't figure out how and couldn't be bothered really. Today we set an alltime record - we got to D/L by ...

... Glad we missed that rush and were in the front of the line! Again, the food was good, but wanted larger servings, we were hungry! After lunch we headed back to the hotel to wait for the bus to take us to Disney. Another negative of staying at this hotel, it's not a walk to Disney. Infact, it's on the other side of the freeway, about 3-5 miles. We got to Disney at about 2 and we headed to California Adventure. Amare ...

... ship, and still a lot of her beauty retains. We were in awe of the craftmanship and the detail. Detail is everything! There were no shortcuts, and consequently she has stood the test of time. In the war years, she was used as a war vessel, and had guns and cannons fixed. They are still there, and although she ...

... from SD. Some friends asked if I was nervous about driving there but I felt pretty comfortable considering my driving resume includes Manhatten and Costa Rica! We pulled into the Candy Cane hotel but were too early to check-in so we just parked and grabbed a shuttle to the happiest place on earth. I now have both Disney parks under my belt and my wife's dream of going to Disneyland has come true and it certainly didn't ...

... a Waterworld re-enactment which included some amazing stunts, water and pyrotechnic tricks. Finally there was also a Shrek 4D show (which I had to drag Ben to and which he unexpectedly enjoyed I think!) and the Tour of the Universal Studios which has numerous surprises like Jaws coming to snap at us on our way past and being in a flooding tunnel along with getting to see the sets from numerous shows and movies including War of the Worlds, Psycho and Desperate Housewives. During ...

With Heidi's unhappy roommate rousing us early, we slept even longer than usual. But we did get in an inadvertent tour of San Diego running errands and going to lunch at a place Heidi suggested (while she was at work in LA --- don't ask). San Diego was hillier than either of us thought. We was generally impressed with San Diego... in fact it was our favorite city of the whole trip. We ...

... watched two backpackers have all their belongings spread out in front of everyone. It was great! We seemed to be the only people they searched. After stuffing everything back into our bags and doing the obligatory customs process we headed straight to the VIP Lounge. Ahh such luxury! We had free food, Spanish magazines, Spanish TV and the best of all free Internet. This made killing a few hours that much better. With our flight being called at 12 ...

... time laugh. It was a, I'm about to lose my mind, kinda laugh. Jeremiah says "I think I would rather be in a Chinese prison" Poor Cory didn't know what was going on. I can't even begin to say how relieved we were to be on solid ground when that ride ended.www.youtube.com/watch?v=FXjMHiaYZ 08 We spent the whole day doing Disneyland until it was finally time to head back to the rental place. We ...
