Today we had a relaxing day touring around the Anaheim and
Buena Park areas. We had all our other tours planned and booked. First we headed to
Buena Park via the public bus system. We had to get off at one street and catch the next bus to
Buena Park. I felt a little uneasy here, the neighbourhood and people seemed fine, but all I keep thinking of were the movies where someone pulls over beats you up, steels all your stuff and then drives off. Turns out it was fine. It surprises me how many
Spanish speaking people/communities there are in LA. We walked around the area for a while, visiting a farmers market,
knotts berry farm, and around the
Buena Park area. After this we headed back to the hotel for a swim in the pool, a few drinks and then a visit to Downtown Disney.
Downtown Disney is in between the 2 parks, Disneyland and California Park, it is a street full of shops, restaurants, bars, lights, people and street entertainment. We stopped for a drink in the outside bar, where I believe there have been sightings of Elvis. Then headed to Naples for dinner where we got balloon animal hats which were awesome.

After dinner we sat around and watched a few of the many buskers that were out and did a bit of window shopping. Then we headed back for a few more drinks at the hotel and to watch the fireworks from
Disneyland on the
balcony of the hotel. Who knew there was actually a story to the fireworks which 6 days later we found out. So the random fireworks shooting here, there and
everywhere and the long pauses in between, were actually planned. Who knew fireworks could be so sad :(

What's the story with the fireworks?
I wonder if American air officials (read snooty cabin crew) would let you on the plane with such entertaining head wear.
Oh it sets off fireworks to do with the themes of areas of the park and rides. Eg: there is a pirates of the carribean ride so the fireworks were let off as if it was firing canons from one ship to the other. Stuff like that, and they tell stories in between which explains the long pauses.
