Website: h ttps://www.cagreatamerica.com/ Address:  4701 Great America Pkwy, Santa Clara, CA 95054 It is not like Disney but the lines are NOT as bad.  It's still huge with lots of roller coaster rides and water parks for both kids and adults. Tip: If you are going to go there at least 2x in a year, it might be worth taking a season pass. which costs around 60-100$ depending if it is a regular or gold season pass.  Daily admission is around $40.  Check out COSTCO as they have discounts for season pass.  The waterpark Exterme Flyer - there is extra fee to this but this is soo worth it! Face / Body Paint Fried Oreos! Funnel Cake! Dippin Dots June 29 You can also book the entire park. E.g. June 29, 2016 YT and Ads booked the entire park the whole day from 10 am to 5 pm.

Anaheim Packing House

Website:  http://anaheimpackingdistrict.com/packing-house Address:   440 S Anaheim Blvd, Anaheim, CA 92805 One of the "in" place nowadays in LA.  This place is a food hall and reminds me of the food markets in Barcelona and Madrid but more the 'upscale' type.  It can't be compared to the ones of course in Spain (as nothing compares to that), but this place has good options for food and they have live music every now and then. It is also very pretty.  (Again, don't compare them to the Spanish Mercados, it's a lot smaller and less options). Check out their site for the schedule and list of restaurants. CAFECITO They served good Iced Latte :) George's Grilled Tilapia  This was reallly good and it's kinda cheap.. around 14 dollars pulled pork sliders Didn't like it.. it was too much sauce
