Anaheim, CA: More Than Just a Mouse
With everything from valiant knights in armor to old-time cowboy
towns, there's more to Anaheim than you think.
While known primarily as the home of a certain famous mouse, Anaheim
dishes up a smorgasbord of family-friendly activities. Check out
Medieval Times, the original "dinner and a show" that harkens back
to a time when valiant knights battled for their kingdom's honor.
Dig into a traditional royal feast, and wield a mighty turkey leg to
cheer for your team in a tournament of games. This contest begins
with a joust atop Andalusian stallions, and draws to a dramatic
finish with swords and maces.
Jump forward to the time of California's Gold Rush at Knott's Berry
Farm, an amusement park set on what used to be 160 acres of berry
farmland with an on-site fried chicken restaurant. (Both tasty jam
and fried chicken are still served up on the park's grounds.) Wander
through Ghost Town, a tribute to California's 1880s boom--complete
with costumed cowboys, a log flute ride, stagecoaches, and panning
for real gold. After, take a whirl on the famed "Montezuma's
Revenge" roller coaster in Fiesta Village, and cool off on the
park's Bigfoot Rapids ride.
