A Trip Down Memory Lane – Day 7
I was in no particular rush that day. I was awake by 6:00. I had a shower. Then I put my clean laundry into my suitcase, and had the last of my melon. On the way out, I went to the check if they have a business centre. I needed to print out our luggage tags.…

A Trip Down Memory Lane – Day 6
We were both awake just before 6. This was my non-park day and we had plenty of time. We relaxed for a bit. We had plans to visit the Aquarium of the Pacific in Long Beach that day and I did some research. There was some contradictory information on their website. On the front page…

A Trip Down Memory Lane – Day 5
I woke up just before 6:00. I got up, had a shower, and got dressed. I had some of the watermelon that Graham had picked for us the previous day and it was absolutely delicious. Then I headed out. After the mess with early entry the day before, I decided to be clever. Instead of…

A Trip Down Memory Lane – Day 4
I was awake at 5:30 again. I got up at 06:15, got showered and dressed. Then I headed out. I took a few photos of the outside of the Villas at Disneyland Hotel. I hit the first snag pretty much as soon as I exited the hotel grounds. Security is now at the entrance…

A Trip Down Memory Lane – Day 3
I had slept in stops and starts. I did manage to sleep until 5:30, which is more impressive than it sounds as the clocks had gone back an hour during the night. Graham was still asleep. I had a shower and then checked in on Facebook and also did some research about breakfast options. Around…

A Trip Down Memory Lane – Day 2
I slept in stops and starts, which is not unusual for me the night before a holiday or when I have to be up very early. This time I had a combination of both. The fact that the bed was a lot firmer than what I am used to did not help either. Still,…

A Trip Down Memory Lane – Day 1
I had been officially on leave for one day, but it was just a fairly standard day off that consisted on working on the trip report for our weekend trip in Italy in October, playing a game on my iPad and running some errands. I did spend a little bit of time on holiday related…

A Trip Down Memory Lane – Prologue
In many ways this is probably the strangest trip we ever took. On paper, it ticked all the boxes for a perfect trip. I have always enjoyed southern California and have some very dear friends there. I also have a decidedly soft spot for Disneyland. We also have been to two of out three of…

Oh No, Not Another UNESCO World Heritage Site – Day 4
We had an early start that morning. We were up and about at 7:00. We took turns having a quick shower, packed our last odds and ends, and then we checked out. We had a train to catch at 8:30. It was a foggy morning and somewhat chilly. We thought that the weather had turned…

Oh No, Not Another UNESCO World Heritage Site – Day 3
We were awake around 9:00 again. We got up and ready. This time round we headed to the main station in Pisa. We walked through the new part of the town, which is a residential area. We walked across a bridge with beautiful buildings on either side. There was also a beautiful church called Santa…
