Hi Jason,

Im so excited about all of it Smiler - Sea World in San Diego, everything in Vegas, Grand Canyon, Alcatraz in San Fran. I heard that you have to book the tour to Alcatraz yourself though and it's better to get in early. My friend and I are going to lookinto it and hopefully book soon.
Im from Perth, Australia and haven't been anywhere so I am interested in everything. Have you been to that part of the world before? Any recommendations?

I thouhg 1 day at universal studios and 1 day at disneyland, and 1 day juts roaming the sreets, walk of fame, shoppoing, lol. You know live the high life....

Alcatraz will be great., cant wait to to that when i arrive, its the main attraction for me, been a real big fan of alactraz from the movies, etc..

unfortunatly i dont have any recoomedations, as Ive ver been there, but watching a ot of movies, and being inspired from movies, being in America for 3 weeks will be heavan for me, Im stoppoing off in Hawaii for a day also, just relax on the beach and eat by the beach at night,,,,really excited.

Hey Jason,

This is my first big trip too. And I can't wait!! Im going with a friend and we are going to a few places.

We are starting in Hawaii for 2 days, then to LA for 4 days before we go on the contiki(just like you). After that we are going to New York and then London, Paris and Rome.

We are going to do the disneyland, universal studios, hollywood, shopping thing too while we are in LA, I want to do the "touristy" thing. I can't wait to go to Universal studios, Id love to see some film sets etc.

We are in America for 3 weeks and I am just going to love it! I have always wanted to go there (more than Europe).

It's funny that we are pretty much doing the same things except you are a week ahead me. Lol. Big Grin

Hey Chanquad,

My friend and I will be in LA on the 21st too. We are staying at the Contiki hotel. When are you starting your travels - since we live in the same state it would be easy to catch up here and then over there as well.

HI All,

I'm about to book on the 24th Dec - 6 JAN WW tour. Can't wait. Wanted to do the Southern Adventure but not available for these dates. Will spend 2 weeks in Canada first & then fly to LA on 21st Dec & stay at the Conitki preferred hotel - Best Western Stovall's Inn. Travelling alone, but opting for twin share..!!
