The FAM Trip Fun Continues

Friday, November 18, 2011
Written by Kimberly Fidler

Our agents had another day of fun, fun, and more fun!  They began bright and early with breakfast and a hotel tour at the Holiday Inn Buena Park.  The Holiday Inn Buena Park is a gorgeous family-friendly hotel just down the street from Knott's Berry Farm.  The agents then toured the Radisson Suites Buena Park and the Knott's Berry Farm Resort Hotel.  Both are awesome hotels perfectly located for the ultimate Southern California vacation.

After a morning of hotel visits, our agents spent the morning getting their adrenaline pumping at Knott's Berry Farm - America's First Theme Park. 

GhostRider, Silver Bullet, Supreme Scream, Xcelerator, and the new WindSeeker are some of our agents' top recommendations for those looking for big thrills.  Camp Snoopy is the perfect place for the little ones with pint sized rides like Camp Bus, Balloon Race, Huff and Puff, Red Baron, Lucy's Tugboat, and Snoopy's Bounce.  Knott's Berry Farm makes a great addition to any Southern California trip.

After spending a few hours at Knott's Berry Farm, our agents were picked up the the Southern California Gray Line Tours where they made the journey south to San Diego. 

On their way down, they stopped at the Homewood Suites Carlsbad for a hotel tour before spending the afternoon at LEGOLAND California

Our agents loved seeing Miniland USA which features Las Vegas, the New England Harbor, San Francisco, Washington D.C., New York, New Orleans, and even the new LEGO Star Wars Miniland!  The new Star Wars Miniland perfectly recreates some of the most famous scenes from the Star Wars galaxy!  Your journey follows the chronological path of the Star Wars movies and you'll spot your favorite Star Wars characters like Anakin Skywalker, Chewbacca, Princess Leia and well as your most feared Star Wars villians like Darth Maul and Darth Vader.

LEGOLAND offers over 60 rides and attractions in a number of themed areas.  Land of Adventure, Fun Town, Imagination Zone, Dino Island, Castle Hill, and Pirate Shores and DUPLO Village each offer multiple ways for family members to "build" memories together.

LEGOLAND has no shortage of photo opportunities.  Our agents enjoyed taking photos of each other by life size LEGO sculpted cars, animals, and even Star Wars characters.  Who wouldn't want their picture with Chewbacca and R2-D2?

After LEGOLAND, our agents were able to see the Grand Pacific Palisades Resort & Hotel and Sheraton Carlsbad where they were treated to dinner. After dinner, our agents checked into the Catamaran Resort Hotel, where they'll stay for the next three nights.

The Catamaran Resort Hotel is perfectly located on Mission Bay and directly across the street from Mission Beach.  In addition to a gorgeous swimming pool, gardens, and koi ponds, the Catamaran Resort Hotel offers marina rentals, a full-service Spa, and everything else you'd need for a San Diego vacation as exciting or relaxing as you wish!

After getting settled into their rooms at the Catamaran Resort Hotel, our agents headed over to the Hyatt Regency Mission Bay where they were able to see this incredible San Diego Resort before roasting s'mores on the beach.  It was the perfect way to begin a stay in San Diego!

When we say our agents know all about Southern California, it's because they go!  Because our reservation staff tours all of our hotel partners and experiences all of our theme parks and attractions first-hand, they pass on their personal knowledge on to you! 

Be sure to read our blog next week to learn about what our agents did with the rest of their time in San Diego and to get some feedback from our reservation agents.  Our staff will be back in the office straight from Southern California and they would be thrilled to share their fresh information with you to help you plan your perfect vacation!  Our vacation specials are available on our site 24/7, or we'll also have a small reservations staff in the office tomorrow (Saturday, November 19) from 9am-5pm MST to help you plan your vacation.
