day 4

In morn, we decided to go Santee Alley ~ 9th-12th st first. LA Fashion District, Downtown’s electric clothing market where you can buy anything you want at huge discounts; gd for Bargain hunters. Mon - Sun, frm 10am to 5pm. Sat are the busiest days, Sun; only abt 30% of stores are open. Eye-opening experience for us where u can find a wholesales centre in the heart of Downtown area of LA(like pratumum in Bangkok,Thailand). Most sellers n buyers r Mexicans.

SAN DIEGO
LEGOLAND California



abit disappointing; (too kidish n nt interesting) for me. Main attraction for me is the Mini USA.
famous landmarks.
SanFran's Golden Bridge
Hollywood sights

Parliament


LasVegas(LV) Welcome sign at the start of strip


famous Egypt pyramid hotel on LV casinos strip, beside it is a castle-like casino hotel.

MGM hotel n Paris hotel

The Mirage hotel n its volcano fireshow.

Too pity, we didnt had time for the other 2 attractions; most talk-about SeaWorld® California n SanDiego Zoo.

On our way back to LA,

Crystal Cathedral famous as its said made of crystal itself, afew tourist there like us r phototaking this breathtaking sight.

Queen Mary; at long beach pier. It had a long history abt 80+ yrs old, so old. Now is permanently resided at the pier as a hotel. My hubby n I explore the ship; its grand like Titanic. There is even got ghastly ghost tales tour around this ship. Kind of creepy at nite when the cold sea breeze blowing at us.
wedding chapel


For more exciting rides, these are the 2 theme parks; Knott's Berry Farm , Six Flags Magic Mountain.
Note: Most theme parks had 2 option of parking fee: preferred (usd20) or normal(usd12) flat rate. Preferred ones will be nearer to entrance but if u arrive the place late, preferred is nothing. Eating at theme is ex n crowded, prepared for long queues, this applies to the theme rides too. for theme parks, arrive in morn, best!!
