Sunny AZ Girl Posted March 8, 2007 #1 Share Posted March 8, 2007 We are driving into the LA area on Saturday before our Monday cruise on the Monarch. We will get there in the mid-afternoon and will be checking into a Holiday Inn near Disneyland. We plan to spend Sunday at Disneyland. Do any of you have any suggestions on what we can do in the late afternoon & evening? Can you get just an evening pass for Disney? Or are there any other nice places to go where we can have a nice dinner or any other sight s to see for just a few hours? Thanks!:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Curt Jerome Wild Posted March 8, 2007 #2 Share Posted March 8, 2007 So many options here... It also depends on what you want, need, or are looking to do... #1 Will you have a car? (rental) or not? #2 Have you looked into the 2 day park hopper pass that lets you bounce between Disneyland and California Adventure (could be worth it for the day and a half)? #3 There are so many other options available, depending on what you really are looking for... Knott's Berry Farm (for the afternoon/evening, or just the restaurants) Medieval Times? Pirates Adventure? Wax Museum? Downtown Disney? Local restaurants? Etc., etc., etc.... A little more details please... CJW Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sunny AZ Girl Posted March 8, 2007 Author #3 Share Posted March 8, 2007 Thanks for the reply! I'm sorry I wasn't more specific. We would like to go out to a dinner and see then do something entertaining, like Disney. We are two adults in our 50's, but I loved Disney World when I was there! We will have a car. I did not know about the 2 day park hopper pass, so that is an option. DH was thinking about Downtown Disney as he was there once before. I guess I don't know what that is all about. He just says "it has restaurants". I like to shop, but am not into the high end glitzy clothing type of shopping while on vacation. I would gueass that the evening at Disney would be my first choice right now. I will look into Knotts Berry Farm, also.:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JJ2sail Posted March 8, 2007 #4 Share Posted March 8, 2007 We really enjoyed the Medievel Times dinner show, they will provide transportation also for an extra fee, if you don't have a rental. Also if you don't wnat to pay for an extra Disneyland day, then you could just go to Downtown Disney, which is outside the park but has lots of shops and restaurants, my kids and husband enjoyed the ESPN zone and dinner at the Rain Forest cafe is always fun!

Sunny AZ Girl Posted March 9, 2007 Author #5 Share Posted March 9, 2007 Thanks! Right now I'm leaning towards the Downtown Disney or Knotts Berry Farm for dinner. Fried chicken is a favorite of mine. Yum!;) Does anyone know if there is an admission charge to just go to the restaurant & shops at Knott's Berry Farm? We wouldn't be interested in any wild rides...especially after eating fried chicken!:eek: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tropical Fish Biz Posted March 9, 2007 #6 Share Posted March 9, 2007 At Knotts, the restaurant and shops are outside the park, so there is no admission. You may have to pay for parking though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then you can go to the restaurant, and all of these shops (link below) http://www.knotts.com/camplace/shop.shtml Which are all kind of right at the front walk area... You would probably enjoy that, or Downtown Disney... Restaurants and shops there (you could get your Disney shopping done on that day)... I personally like the House of Blues or the Jazz/New Orleans place for dinner there... CJW PS Please be sure to give us a review or report of what you did when you get back! Enjoy!

Cruisin' Chick Posted March 10, 2007 #9 Share Posted March 10, 2007 One word of advice about dining at the KBF restaurant: it's very popular with long lines. Try going in an off time (say for a late lunch). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
