Legoland

                                              Yesterday we went to Legoland.

I thought the toilets were funny

                                                         I got my legoland drivers license.

I took Mum sailing

                                                   I went on one of my first roller coasters.

                                       I took Dad for a ride on a waterski boat I got to steer.

We saw miniature versions of cities in America

and we also went to the star wars part.

                                      We drove back on a huge motorway.  I was knackered!

We had to get back in time to have dinner at Goofy's kitchen in Disneyland.  Goofy was there to meet us.  He had cooked us a yum dinner.  I had macaroni and cheese pizza and peanut butter and jelly pizza as well as other stuff.  Look who was also there...   CHIP, DALE,PLUTO,AND DONALD DUCK! also this girl from Egypt.

Next stop Disneyland!!!

                      We had an early start for our day at Disneyland so we could get there first.

Here we go ...

                                        First stop was Dumbo... mum was very uncomfortable

High-flying on Dumbo

                                             Then the Mad Hatter's tea-cups mum felt sick!

Dad wouldn't be smiling here

                                                 Then the finding Nemo - Submarine ride

                                      After lunch we headed to Paradise Pier.

                                              There were some BIG rides!

If only we hadn't just had lunch!

                                     Played Woody's arcade games which was awesome!

                                        Then we headed back for the Main Street parade.

                                                                   CIAO!

Hollywood

On sunday we flew to L.A America we got upgrades I spent most of my time talking to the flight attendants but I spent the other time watching "THE SIMPSONS" but apart from that we landed.

The next day, we picked up a car.  It's a big black car which Mum has to drive on the huge motorways.

Then we drove to hollywood and went up to the sign on the hill and the observatory but it was closed.

Down in Hollywood there were heaps of phony stars outside like ELVIS and so on.

we saw hands and footprints of famous people outside the Kodak theatre.

 Then we went to the warner brothers studios for a V.I.P tour.  First we saw a movie of the history of the studio and the movies and TV programmes they make like The Big Bang Theory, Friends, Bugs Bunny, Harry Potter, Batman, Dukes of Hazard, yogi Bear.

Then we got driven by golf cart and saw the the fake movie streets that were in movies and tv programmes like spiderman, friends, batman.

Then we got to see inside the studio garage where all the famous cars are parked liked the Batmobile, the General Lee, the Mystery Machine "ROOBY- ROOBY- ROO!"

Then we went inside some stage sets like Central Perk where Friends used to meet for coffee.

Then we drove down to our hotel in Anaheim.  When we got to our hotel we got given a hot cookie.  I get my own double bed.

Tomorrow we are going to downtown disney for dinner and to see "Arthur" the movie

Last day in France

First an answer to Uncle Michael's question. New Zealand has the best ice cream - of course.  But Italy has some pretty dam good ice cream to!

Today, I got up early and went up the Eiffel Tower. We were one of the first people there. But we had to wait half an hour until it opened. Even after that we still had to wait another quarter of an hour because it was late opening.

Once it opened, it started to rain, luckily we didn't need to wait long in the rain. We had to catch two lifts to reach the top - higher than the sky tower in NZ. Sadly it was very misty, so we didn't get a very good view from the top.

When we got down we went to a cafe where I ordered in french. "Un choclat chaud et un cafe espresso."

Next I went shopping with mum for clothes to wear to "The Ivy" restaurant tomorrow night. We'll have to look good for the papparazzi!  

I'll see you in the next woman's weekly or on my next blog

last few days in france

Yesterday we went to the TOUR DE EIFFEL to go up the three lifts, but the queues were to big so we're going to try again tomorrow.When we got out there were Gipsy's with fake petitions asking tourists to sign it. We knew that it was really a distraction to pickpocket people.

Then went to the Arc De Triomphe to go up to the top.  We stopped in a park and within 5 minutes 2 different gypsies walked past and amazingly each found a gold ring by where we were standing. I was about to say "PHONY, PHONY" about the ring but I was too kind.  Both of them asked us to take the rings and then for us to pay them. We thought this was weird.

Mum left us to go shopping while we went up the ARC DE TRIOMPHE. We had to wait a while unsurprisingly, when we finally started the climb we took some photos looking up. It didn't seem to take long before we reached the top.

I looked through a telescope on top, and saw that the Eiffel Tower was chocka with tourists.

We all stopped for lunch on the Champ Elysees before we went to the park by the Ritz.  Here again there were gypsies galore. I went on the superluge at the park - and I would highly recommend it. After that I went into an inflatable plastic ball in a pool, it was really hard to walk in.

Then went to the Notre Dame cathedral but the queue was too long to go in. As we left we met a man who knew the bombers of the "Rainbow Warrior" he said the wife of the French president live down the street we were at.
