General Hospital Fan Club Weekend 2007

I've been a fan of General Hospital for about 30 years. I try to attend their annual fanclub event (which is held in July) every other year. This was the first time I brought my daughter along with me. Surprisingly, she enjoyed herself very much. Since we were in the LA area, we decided to visit some local attractions. We absolutely loved Disneyland and California Adventure. Santa Monica pier was also a lot of fun.

Christmas in London

Traveling to London, England was a dream come true for the both of us. We spent 8 days learning about the city's rich history and soaking up its culture.

We stayed at the Corus Hyde park which was a comfortable and an appropriately rated 3 star hotel. The staff was both helpful and courteous. Believe it or not, I actually enjoyed spending Christmas (2007) enduring colder temperatures. Once you've seen Santa in bermuda shorts and it's 80 degrees outside, you're good for the rest of your life!

Visiting Picadilly Circus was a lot of fun. It reminded me of Times Square so I found it refreshing and easy to navigate even with a young child.

Trafalgar Square was one of the stops of the Original Trolley tour so we hopped off. In this photo, Angie and I are taking it all in.

We weren't prepared for the huge crowd (Dec 2007) at Madame Tussaud's Wax Museum. It was out of control and chaotic. The crowd/tourists acted as if the actual celebrities (especially Brad+Angelina) were there in person. Good grief!

We spent our last day in London taking in views from British Airways London Eye. The views from that height were spectacular. We can't wait to return.

A New Journey

Welcome and thank you for visiting my new blog. Within the next few days, I will be adding posts and photos from previous outings with my darling Angie. We love to travel, try new and/or different restaurants, visit amusement parks, etc. Please stay tuned... Sincerely, Liz
