Day One: Continuation

(Sorry for the delay - Internet has not been easily accessible, so prepare for a wild ride of updates right about now)

Firstly we have pictures documenting various points in our trip. We’ve got shots at the gate in Sydney Airport –if you look closely and you’re wondering about the birthmark Lachlan seems to have acquired by his eye... no, that’s a football injury;

Okay so basically we arrived in LA and all was well. We were staying at the Castle Inn in Anaheim which is basically across the road from Disneyland. To be honest I’m not sure if anything of interest happened from the airport to the hotel... I fell asleep despite people telling me not to.

We got to the hotel, we were room 155 if anyone cares for minor details. I think we went for a walk to see what was where and find something to eat. We didn’t walk very far. There was a line of, like, five/six shops next door.

I’d discovered an email from my friend Allie to say that she was in town and if I got the message before a certain time to ring her, and so I did. Thus my friend Allie arrived after we’d had dinner which was awesome timing. So on my very first night in the states I hung with her. She decided to show me around because she knew the area real well.

Fast Fact: I’m not sure about others... but when Allie says she knows where she’s going and then starts looking around (almost religiously) to check she is where she thinks she is... might be a good idea to find a map.

We went a long way around to Downtown Disneyland when we could have walked up the road and turn left. We basically went around to the other side of the park. It was hilarious when we realised this mishap. And who cares? We had an epic time. Or, at least, I had an epic time and I assume she did because we were having some serious fun.

This is basically how the first day, Tuesday, went in the USA.

The next update will document Disneyland in one hit, or possibly two given the photos.

  2. In all fairness we did end up where you said we were going to end up, it just would have been faster if we'd turned right instead of left. :P
