Days 8&9 - On our last full day, we went to SoFi Stadium where the Rams play. We didn’t take an official tour because we didn’t have enough time but saw parts of the stadium and visited the team store. We then headed to Warner Bros. Studios for a tour. It was fantastic! We spent about 3 hours between the guided and individual parts of the tour. We were able to go onto the sound stage for the show All American as it was not in production. We learned a lot about TV and movies. When that tour wrapped up, it was time to head to Dodger Stadium for our last MLB stadium of the trip. There is something classic about Dodger Stadium, and the landscape beyond the stadium is beautiful. After the game, we headed back to the hotel to pack and headed to the airport around 2 a.m. to return the rental car and fly home. We landed in St. Louis and were home by about 2:30. We had an amazing vacation, and I already can’t wait for our next adventure!

Day 7 - We headed to Hollywood today! Peyton found us the best restaurant for a late breakfast - The Breakfast Club. From there, we walked along the Walk of Fame and sites like the El Capitan Theatre. We then took a Celebrity Homes Tour with Hollywood Bus Tours which was fantastic. When we returned, we finished walking around before heading to the Malibu Peer and a seafood dinner at Reel Inn. We drove back to Pasadena through Topanga, and it was beautiful. It was then time to rest up for our last day of vacation!

Day 6 - We checked out of the Disneyland Hotel and headed to the parks. We took the monorail into Disneyland to experience rides like Space Mountain again and to wrap up a few more of the Fantasyland attractions such as Alice in Wonderland.

Our ride on Space was cut short when the ride stopped, the lights came on, and we were pushed to the end of the ride. After removing a phone from the track underneath the car in front of us, we were allowed to ride again so it worked out well in the end.

We had lunch at Tiana’s Place, and it was delicious! We all agreed this was our best quick service meal. After lunch, we park hopped across to California Adventure in less than 10 minutes.

We rode some of the rides again before hopping back to Disneyland when Incredicoaster was still closed for some final shopping on Main Street and to grab a few sweet treats for our next stop.

Once we left the parks, we drove to Pasadena where we would spend the next 3 nights at the Courtyard by Marriott Pasadena Old Town. This was a great hotel and was very close to the Rose Bowl. After a quick visit to the Santa Monica Pier, we headed toward the Rose Bowl. We also grabbed dinner at an old school In-N-Out Burger just a couple of miles from our hotel.

Day 5 - Disney’s California Adventure park was wonderful! The theming at this park is top notch! We loved the rides and attractions as well of course. We spent the morning at the park before heading to Downtown Disney for lunch at Black Tap Craft Burgers and Shakes (absolutely delicious and the best shake ever) and shopping. We then took a break at the resort before heading back until park closing.

I felt like I was walking into Radiator Springs when we entered Cars Lans. Radiator Springs Racers was much more than we expected and well worth he 40 minute wait.

We loved the Incredicoaster but unfortunately only got to ride it once as it was having issues all 3 days we were in the parks. Pixar Pier was such a fun area with the rides but also the vibe of being on the boardwalk.

Avengers Campus was great and full of your favorite Marvel heroes. Web slinging with Soider Man was great.

We love Soarin’ and made it our first ride of the day with absolutely no wait.

We even tried our hand at animation with a 30 minute session where learned to draw a Disney character. Let’s just say, animation is not in my future, but it was a lot of fun.

The nighttime show, World of Color - One was so powerful. It was well worth getting a spot in the virtual queue to view it from the preferred area.

At the end of the day, we decided California Adventure was at the top of our list for Disney Parks. We shut down the park and were back in our room within 15 minutes. What a great day!

Day 4 - We were up early to spend the day at Disneyland. It was a very short walk through Downtown Disney to the entrance.

Two immediate observations compared to Walt Disney World Resort in Florida - the crowd size was much smaller at the entrance as in there was no wait to enter the park. While it did get crowded, wait times were never more than 30 minutes for anything we chose to do. Second, we did not sweat. The temps were amazing - even cool by evening.

We spent the day checking out all the attractions. Arriving early allowed us to walk on to Space Mountain without stopping as well as Star Tours.

We took a break in the late afternoon and had dinner at Goofy’s Kitchen at our resort before heading back to Disneyland in time for Together Forever - A Pixar Nighttime Spectacular. After fireworks, we rode a few more rides as the park was open till midnight. Day 1 was a definite success.

We just recently returned from an 8 night vacation to Southern California that included Disneyland Resort, 3 Major League Baseball games, and sightseeing in the LA area. I will be posting trip highlights over the next week.

Day 1 - We flew Southwest Airlines from St. Louis to LAX. After a 2 hour weather delay, we made it to the airport. We rented a car from Hertz, and that process was super easy and convenient. We then drove to Oceanside where we spent the first 2 nights of the vacation at the Courtyard by Marriott. It was a nice hotel that we agreed we would stay at again.

Day 2 - We spent the day in San Diego. The Padres had a home afternoon game that we attended. Petco Park just might be my new favorite stadium! The Padres have done things right. From the statues to the murals to the hall of fame exhibits and even the team store, it is evident the pride the organization has for its teams past and present. In addition to the game, we visited the Gaslamp Quarters and walked through the Seaport Village for some shopping. San Diego seems like a great city, and we definitely want to visit again. We had dinner in Oceanside at the Rockin’ Baja Lobster and caught a beautiful senset by the Pacific Ocean.

Day 10 - Animal Kingdom

Our last park day was spent at Animal Kingdom. We slept in and headed in time to ride a couple of rides before a late breakfast at Tusker House. After lunch we headed to the safari. It started pouring as we began our journey, but it was probably the best safari we have experienced as the animals were on the move.

That night we had dinner at the resort, played a few more games in the arcade, did some shopping, and started to pack for the drive home.

Another magical vacation ❤️

Day 9 - Magic Kingdom

We opened and closed MK today! We arrived to line up for rope drop and closed down the park after the fireworks. We did take a break in the middle for a quick service lunch at Wilderness Lodge. This is our favorite resort so we wanted to take a visit.

Dinner was at Crystal Palace. We have so many special memories over the years with the boys interacting with the characters. This was also a place we always ate with my parents on our big family trips. The last visit in 2017 was one full of laughter, and at this dinner we shared some of those memories. It is good food, great character interaction and located near the castle. Doesn’t get much better ❤️

Day 8 - We went back to Hollywood Studios to experience some attractions again and ride a few we didn’t do on day 1. It is nice to have 2 park days here because we want to do some of the rides multiple times and can pace ourselves along the way.

We used this day to spend some time walking around the resort and headed back to Disney Springs for a little bit as well.

Day 7 - Back to the parks for an EPCOT day. We were up early to get in the virtual queue for Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind. Other top pics from EPCOT include Remy’s Ratatouille Adventure, Soarin’ and Living with the Land. We took a break in the middle of the day to head to Disney Springs for lunch and a little more shopping. We then went back to EPCOT to wrap up the day with fireworks before beating the rise to the Skyliner and a nice ride back to Pop.

Day 6 - After 4 straight park days, we took a break and had a quieter day. We slept in and took our time at the resort. We then golfed a round at Fantasia Gardens on the fairways course. It was quite an intense mini golf match. We decided this is a must do each trip. It was so much fun. The evening was spent at Disney Springs for dinner and shopping. The slower paced day was perfect in the middle of our trip.

Day 5 - Magic Kingdom

We were up early to snag a spot in the Tron virtual queue. The ride was well worth the early wake up time! Since we had 2 MK days scheduled, we were able to pace ourselves and used Genie+ to knock out everything we wanted to do in time to head back to the resort to watch the MLB All Star Game. Despite the mid morning storm, we had another great day.

Day 4 - We made the move to Disney’s Pop Century Resort for the next 7 nights. This was a new resort for us. We were in the 1950’s section and had a view of the lake and Skyliner.

After unloading the car and getting somewhat settled in our rooms, we headed to the Skyliner to spend the day at Hollywood Studios. If you know me, Disney is my happy place so while I enjoyed Universal, I felt like I was home when we got to Disney ❤️

Day 3 - Universal’s Islands of Adventure

We absolutely loved this park! There are great roller coasters and thrill rides but also family and kid rides and great theming.

It was hard to choose favorites, but here is a list of a few of our top picks - Jurassic World VelociCoaster, Hagrid’s Magical Creatures Motorbike Adventure, The Incredible Hulk Coaster, and the Amazing Adventures of Spider-Man.

If you enjoy water rides, give Popeye & Bluto’s Bilge-Rat Barges a shot. Peyton got absolutely soaked even wearing a rain poncho.

We grabbed a quick lunch at Cafe 4 in the middle of our day. It was a cool spot with good food.
