The Redwood Creek Challenge is awesome for kids and kids of all ages - plus the shipping next to Grizzly Run is also awesome (just outside of the entrance to Disney's Grand California Hotel). The Soarin' ride is so cool and this whole area is really one of my favorite areas for rides, food, shopping and great places to see characters and rest a bit too!

Also love that if you stay at the Grand Californian Hotel (GCH), you have your own entrance to Grizzly Peak. Get soaked on the rapids ride, and go back to change in your room! Love this area as it's themed really well and adjacent to the hotel and some great dining in GCH.

Lots of people walking dogs, there are trash cans, a few benches and picnic tables. Somewhat peaceful but lots of traffic right off the main roads. Parking here is very tight, only a few spaces, but the park is so small no one stays long. There are also no restrooms at all.

Main Street Cinema is located along Main street, U.S.A in Disneyland Park. After watching the Flag…read moreRetreat ceremony, my husband and I stopped inside Main Street Cinema. It originally opened in the park in 1955! The Main Street Cinema has the design based on a Victoria inspired facade, and an old fashioned big box office window! Inside the theater, features several small screens showing vintage films. Over the years, the lineup has shifted. The Cinema is known for it's screening of Steamboat Willie from 1928, the very first synchronized sound cartoon featuring Mickey Mouse! There are some benches that you can sit inside and watch the films. It's also air conditioned if you're looking to take a break during the summer! It's a nice place to enjoy some history and being immersed in the magic of Main Street at Disneyland! It's one of Disneyland's Hidden Gems!

Walking through the Richard Nixon Presidential Library and Museum gives you a perspective most…read morepeople never get--because the story of Richard Nixon is far more than just Watergate. Before the scandal, his presidency reshaped both foreign and domestic policy in ways that still impact us today. On the global stage: * He made a historic visit to China in 1972, opening diplomatic relations after decades of isolation--completely shifting the balance of the Cold War * He negotiated détente with the Soviet Union, including arms control agreements that helped ease nuclear tensions * He worked to wind down U.S. involvement in the Vietnam War and ended the military draft At home: * He established the Environmental Protection Agency, laying the groundwork for modern environmental protection * Signed the Clean Air Act and supported major environmental reforms * Advanced policies that reshaped federal power and economic strategy during a time of national division What stands out in the museum is how these accomplishments are presented alongside the unraveling of the Watergate scandal--a moment that led to his resignation and permanently changed public trust in government. It's a rare place where you're forced to hold two truths at once: A president who made major global strides... and a presidency that ended in one of the most significant political scandals in American history.

If you are lucky, you would find street parking a block or two away. It is very inconvenient. Even Valet parking is terrible. It is congested in the parking lot. Aside from parking.

Great example of Craftsman-style Architecture. This is a low-density multi-unit residence with a…read moreshared courtyard and center garden, built in 1922 and designed by Architect Frank Benchley. This review is for the architecture only and not for the living spaces. The colors have been restored recently and are much more period correct than the previous tan color, if you remove some of the modern details the occupants have added to the outside of their homes you can film a 20s/30s movie here and it would look exactly right.  Each unit has some hallmarks of Craftsman style; Long overhanging-eaves over the front porch with exposed beams and simplified decorative flourishes like the tapered column designs and wrought-iron door work. To the left/north are the Pomona Apartments which are done in a Spanish-Colonial revival style and worth checking out if you are there. Features a  tiled roof, smooth stucco exterior, arched entryways, and decorative  railings and air vents. I understand the reasoning but a little odd to share the colorway w/ these apartments and the Court. These are historically significant, the only kind like this in the city and added to the National Register of Historic Places in 2017.

It reminds you of why they call it Orange County. If I went to school here I'd be here probably once a week. Otherwise it's great to come if you live in the OC.

This city is nestled in between a busy 57 Freeway and there you have the quiet and cute little community of Placentia. I had an amazing time at the 28th Annual Tamale Festival. The event took place in downtown Santa Fe, where all the small authentic Mexican restaurants are convenient. Located for many choices. They have a great vibe and a huge heart for giving back to the community. Here I share the events. Picture and highlights of the tamale festival. Again, the employees and their City staff were all present and in support of their big event. Many come from out of the area for this special evening. I recommend keeping this event on your radar, it is free to attend!
