Malibu

So we've left LA, and to be honest, we're glad! We were spending way too much money! Disney, Universal etc, it all starts to add up. Even the RV parks were more expensive.

Today we visited Universal Studios; it was awesome, infinitely better than Disney. First off, there were no queues, hardly any screaming kids, it was cheaper and finally, the rides were better. The Simpsons ride was sensational (http://www.thesimpsonsride.com), it was a simulator rather than a ride but this is what made it sensational. The live Waterworld Show was brilliant, it was far superior to the film Waterworld, which, in case you haven't seen it, is abysmal. We also went on the Jurassic Park ride, this was a conventional roller-coaster set in "Jurassic Park", it was good, the ending especially.

After Universal, we headed to out next RV park. This one is located in Malibu, about a 50 min drive from LA. The park is beautifully located, right on the coast, giving us some fantastic views.



Tomorrow we head on up to our first National Park, home of the largest tree on Earth, the General Sherman Tree (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/General_Sherman_tree)
