We have returned from our trip to Los Angeles and we had a great time. We visited the Happiest Place on Earth, Disneyland, Knotts Berry Farm and Six Flags Magic Mountains. Most of the rides were great with some being fantastic experiences. I throughly enjoyed the roller coasters in Knotts Berry with the best being the Xcelerator and a close second the Ghost Rider. At Six Flags we went on thirteen of the sixteen roller coasters with the best being ‘X’ and Goliath I thought both were enjoyable, with Scream a close second.
The Disney experience was well worth the trip I was impressed with the Indiana Jones Adventure and The Twilight Zone Tower of Terror both of which we went on twice. The Indy ride has allot of the big scenes from the movies including the giant boulder. How were were going to get away from that boulder had me a bit worried. The Twilight Zone ride has you in a haunted hotel and riding up the service elevator this was a very enjoyable ride. Also allot of fun was the Matterhorn Bobsleds and Soaring over California. Also the roller coaster California Screaming was a blast, you get launched straight ahead from 0 to 55 mph in less than 5 seconds. .
Hollywood was much like I remember it, dirty and not too appealing. I did go to Graumans Chinese Theater to see Batman Begins which was a great experience it is incredible to watch a movie in a grand theater with over 2000 seats and a huge screen. Definitely a highlight of the trip.
I will be posting some of the pictures over the next couple of days.

Tower of Terror at Disneyworld was the scariest of the rides, for me. I think it has to do with my fear of falling. All the roller coasters and other thrill rides were enjoyable, but I screamed like a girl each time the Tower’s elevator dropped.
I was left with the impression that I would not like the Tower of Terror but we were laughing after the first drop. It came totally unexpectedly for me. People told me the drop is dramatic and I would not like it.
