I recently purchase the X-Shot for our trip to LA and Las Vegas. Here are some notes:

• I suggest packing the X-Shot in a suitcase, I don't think airline security will allow it on the airline.
• There was no problem bringing the X-Shot to Disneyland. Several Cast members saw me using it and didn't say anything. Some online post suggest that Disney doesn't like people bringing tripod into Disneyland, but that was not the case with the X-Shot.
• In Disneyland, you can use the XShot to take some good pictures of the parade.
• The X-Shot works really well with the Fuji FinePix e900 digital camera with the 2 second delay.
• The X-Shot fit perfectly into my video camera bag and was very easy to use when the opportunity to use it came in handy.
  

Try the X-Shot on your next trip!

Yesterday we came back from a ten day vacation in LA and Las Vegas. In the next few day's I'll blog some of the sites that we saw and recommend some great places to eat.

We both had a great time on our trip and we took a lot of photos (3,000 +) and videos. Some of the photos were put up on Facebook, and others will go in the photo gallery with some detail descriptions of the place.

I have been busy working on my booklet for a nice vacation to California and Nevada. There's a few remaining item that I would like to get in the book before it gets compiled in the next 24 hours.

Creating a personalize travel book is a way that I like to get ready for a vacation. I design this book to be a reference guide to our trip. I look for things such as the best restaurant to eat, driving directions to attractions and stores, and so much more. Usually the book doesn't get compiled until a few days before the trip, so that all the information is fresh.

Remaining Items for the California Portion of the trip:

• Pink Berry - Information on locatations in Anaheim and Los Angeles
• Griffin Park
• Mr. Chow - 344 N Camden Dr Beverly Hills, CA 90210-5112
• 90210 Sites on WB - Complete list of exterior shots used on the orginal 90210 on Fox.
• Oldest McDonald's - Located in Downey CA
• Walk in Walt's Shoes in Disneyland

Hard to believe that Walt Disney's Haunted Mansion is turning 40 years old, actually its the Haunted Mansion at Disneyland that turns 40.

Many people don't know that the Disneyland opened its doors the Haunted Mansion was still being developed. Walt Disney was undecided on how to implement the Haunted Mansion as a ride. The Imagineers did a great job creating a memorable ride.

If your a Haunted Mansion fan you should check out Extinct Attractions, they have a really good walk through DVD. 

I am looking forward to visiting the Haunted Mansion next month and seeing other sites in Southern California such as, Mann's Chinese Theater, Universal Studios and the Hollywood Walk of Fame. This should be a fun trip!
