If you want scenic in Los Angeles, Mulholland Drive is supposed to be where you go. So we looked it up online, checked our map, plotted into our GPS, and off we went. We found Mulholland Drive from our hotel easily enough, but once we found the road, things stopped...

Being first-timers at Disneyland, it took us a while to figure out the multiple parks, and the theme of each park. Traveling outside of the tourist-season meant we didn’t have to wait too long in lines for rides. There is always some waiting, but nothing too crazy....

 A trip to Los Angeles isn’t complete without a trip to a TV studio. Being huge fans of Warner Bros-shows, it was an easy pick. A few hours at the Warner Bros Studios VIP Tour was in order. And completely worth the fee. Getting to walk in the footsteps of Lorelei...
