Hi Sharon!!

You should totally do it, I'm SO super excited I think it's gonna be the best trip ever! Smiler

I was doing it solo originally but my friend Angela decided it sounded like so much fun that she's coming too!

So you'll at least know me, Angela and Danielle from the forums lol.

Let us know what you decide! Smiler

Erica.

Hi guys,

I'm also traveling solo.I reckon we'll have an awesome time.
This will be my third tour with Contiki, so I can promise you that you'll have a blast, based on my previous experiences with Contiki.

Do you have any particular plans for New York and when do you arrive in LA?

Hi Danielle, yeah I can't wait for our tour to start.I arrive in LA on the 20th of July as well.At the moment I consider going to Disneyland, but everything else will be decided spontaneously.

Well,I haven't got any specific plans for New York.I leave NY on the 20th of August.

Yep, I'll stay in the hotel in Anaheim. My plane arrives about 4 pm. Having a drink is a good idea. What do you think about having a drink at 8 pm? I also thought about going Hollwood and venice beach.Do you mind if I join you?

8pm sounds cool, perfected drinking time. Hopefully wont still be on brit time otherwise it will fill like im drinking at 4 in the moring. I was going to do this tour it cost like $60 - $70. They pick u up from ur hotel and take u to hollwood and venice beach. Or we could try and find out how to get there ourselves, if ur up 4 it? xx

I just did some research on the net.From Anaheim to Venice Beach would cost $9.00 and the trip time is about 2 hours and 54 minutes.The trip distance is about 47.56 miles.
We would have to change the lines 3 times

From Anaheim to Hollywood costs $5.20 and it would take about 2 hours and 30 minutes to get there.The distance is about 48.41 miles. We would have to change the lines 3 times as well.

From an economic point of view it's of cause cheaper, but I guess that doing the organized tour would be more convenient for obvious reasons.
