Reviews
Disneyland Resort Express. 4/4.
Courtyard. 4/4. Paid with cash and points. Great buy ($200/nt). Bunk beds, two showers, water park, dining area.
Von's. 4/4. Great service, bought too many beverages!
Plaza Inn 4/4. Roast beef is almost as good as the chicken!
Mi Casa Mexicana 3/4. Great price, good food. Took a bit too long.
Destination Sitters. 4/4. Kids loved the sitter, playing games. Very affordable.
Randy's Donuts. 4/4. OMG.
Natural History Museum. 2/4. Great museum, just didn't have a great time.
Pink's Hot Dogs. 4/4. OMG.
Cake 1. 3/4. Chocolate Cake, chocolate mousse, white frosting.
Carnation Cafe. 4/4. Not seated until 30 minutes after reservation-not fun. Chicken was great. Wife liked her burger.
Cake 2. 4/4. Chocolate Cake, white mousse, white frosting.
Giant Manhattan Pizza. 4/4. $30 for a 30" pizza (basically four large pizzas). Very good.
