Haven’t been anywhere in LA for several years. Took my grandson to Disney in 2004. First time I had been there in several years and told him to enjoy it because we wouldn’t be going back. Really gone downhill compared to what it was. Then took both the grandsons to Lego Land in 2008 but stayed in a great hotel adjoining the area. Drove in and drove out. We do love parts of San Diego though. Such a shame. They literally had it all and just blew it, not only for them but for all the people who really envied their lifestyle and used to love to visit. Thanks for sharing the pics. Makes me so sad.
When I drive into Houston from the suburbs I notice more and more areas are becoming a bit raggedy looking and the area where I feel safe grow smaller and smaller. Happening to all the major cities. Tremendous waste, mismanagement and corruption is catching up.

If you just stayed near Disneyland you are OK. Disneyland in Anaheim is 30 miles away from downtown Los Angeles ( the armpit of the city ).
