Road Trip Continuation to LA & Anaheim - Day 5

We are off again heading out of the big city of San Francisco to our next destination. We left San Fran around 9am as we wanted to be on the road early. We drove on the big Bay bridge from San Fran to the city of Oakland, which I have to say was no great shakes. It seemed very old and run down so we decided to drive right through that town and didn't miss a thing.

We arrived in Los, Angela's California around 3:00pm. We didn't spend too much time in LA as the traffic was crazy. We did drive down part of Hollywood Blvd and got to see a bunch of the Hollywood stars on the side walks. We did pull over to take a few pictures of some of the stars including Johnny Cash and of course my favorite Elizabeth Taylor...I actually got on the ground next to that star to take a picture. We had the chance to go and see Howie's High school that he attended while growing up in LA that was really cool. We also drive to his old neighborhood that he grew up in as well...all the pictures are on our family website. The later we stayed in LA the worst the traffic got so we didn't stay to long.

We left LA around 4:30pm and arrived in Anaheim around 5:30pm which was perfect. It was so nice to arrive in a city that was clean and well kept but it was not a suprise as we were on the Disney grounds. We were all very excited about our stay as we were right next to the Disney park. We stayed at a really nice hotel that overlook the back of of Disney. We had the perfect view from our hotel room to see the Disney fireworks at night. We are all very excited for our big day at Disneyland tomorrow.
