Disney Feast West&East Day 6: Reagan Museum & LA

[WileyCoyote]

i think this was from Tron





























Disneyland under construction

[WileyCoyote]

I think thats all the best ones - both camera batteries ran out so some got taken as still from the video camera but they came out a bit blurry which is a shame.

Hope you like these - the costumes were amazing but all in a really dark room , I assume to preserve them.

Christopher had the same problem staying central in the highway lanes, I lost count how many times I said 'move over a bit love'!

We enjoyed Mel's Diner too in San Francisco, although we didn't realise it was a chain at the time.

The Disney museum looks brilliant, it seems even better than the one in San francisco, perhaps its because you can't take any photos there, wish we could have. So, thats final then, we have to go back next year!

Fab pics thank you!

What a great surprise about all the Disney stuff. I loved looking at all of those photos, really interesting stuff there.

It sounds like you're all having such a great time. I'm loving this so far, and the best is yet to come!

Great photos would love to do a west coast trip when the kids are a bit older

What a fantastic day. We really didn't enjoy driving around LA, either.

Fancy you not taking David B to Mels

This report has given me so many ideas! I am considering the HIE Hollywood, so nice to hear good things about it! Brilliant report

Another fab day! The Reagan museum looks extremely interesting and a nice bonus to get the Disney archives there too! Really enjoying your report

We were lucky , it was the Disney Archives and a time limited exhibition being hosted out at the Reagan Museum so had we gone a bit earlier it wouldnt have been there . I dont know how long it runs for - it was such interesting stuff, like Laugh O Gram films, his original company and all about his upbringing. The freeways freaked me out and we had a real near miss a couple of days later

Yes, the trippy is a bit warts and all so a few grumbles along the way - thats real life - but we really did have an amazing time and Florida, well, dare I say, it was possibly perfect. But you will know that as you will be there Hope you catch up on later installments when you are back

Its quite an incredible place - ours were old enough to appreciate it and still young enough to really throw themselves into childish enjoyment (when they thought we werent looking of course )

HIE Hollywood was an excellent location for the North side of our stay. It wasnt the cheapest but we got a great sized room, the breakfast was great. the car was safe and the staff were incredibly helpful. just a shame we never managed to fit in a dip in the pool
Thanks for reading along

thanks for reading along - it really was an incredibly interesting place and very well designed - it had the most stunning views over the mountains . We didnt realise he had such a close association to California. We could have spent longer there I am sure , we didnt get to go round the gardens which looked beautiful.
