Surprise....Disneyland!!




Our trip over was pretty uneventful.  We had a fairly rough landing but we are fine.  We travelled via Las Angeles and Mum and Dad surprised us with 2 days at disneyland, and one day at universal studios.  It was really cool.  We saw heaps of disney characters and went on some really scary rides.  
Our Favourite rides were : Ariki's - the Log flume (mainly because Dad was at the front and got soaking wet) and the roller coaster.
Tamati's - the roller coaster (probably because mum and dad made us do it and we didn't want to but after we did it we wanted to do it again!) and Star wars flight simulator.
FYI disneyland is split into 2 main parks the original is still there but recently they added another park, that is in what was the main car park, called California.  It has a whole lot of fast rides!
Universal studio's was cool as well.  It is where they make alot of movies and Tamati's favourite rides were the 'special effect show' and the 'shrek 4d movie' - where the chairs move, and when donkey sneezes water would squirt out and wet you!
Ariki enjoyed the studio tour, which showed you where they filmed many movies like 'King kong' and 'evan almighty'.  Animal antics were another great show where animals would interact with the crowd.
Another cool thing was the 'water world show' which was set around a big pool and it had jet skis, boats and planes!  with this show if you sat up the front you would get completley wet!  We were lucky to be sitting just out of the Wet Zone!
We are now in england staying with Uncle Alban and Auntie Catherine, until we head off to france on Tuesday - hopefully the flight is better than our last flights
