On our fourth and fifth day we went to Universal Studios and my parents visited friends in Fullerton, went to the beach and The Getty Center. Here we are at the hotel breakfast before parting ways for the day.
We stayed in the same hotel in Anaheim and drove from Anaheim to Hollywood each day...on the worst freeway in LA - the 5. It took us about 1 1/2 hours to go 35 miles including some weird detouring through downtown LA. But there is not that much to do at Universal and we still had plenty of time to do all we wanted. We went to the Harry Potter land first. We did the child swap on the Forbidden Journey then rode the Hippogriff ride.

Emma at the play place near Jurassic Park.
It was great they had a little play place for kids too short to ride.
I think we went on just about everything we wanted to by the end of the first day and had dinner at Universal City Walk.
Another day at Universal and more Butterbeer.
We went on the Studio Tour again too. The kids liked that one.
Enjoying some popcorn in the Simpson's land
There were lots of fun rides there. The kids had fun.
On our last morning there we met my parents and my brother for breakfast at the Original Pancake House. The kids liked the pancakes.
And Grant was really excited about bacon.
I forgot to get a picture of all of us, but it was fun seeing everyone and having a little vacation.
