On the list of brilliant ideas throughout history, something has to be said for Walt Disney and his idea about how to stir up a sleepy little Anaheim orange grove. Since Disneyland opened its doors over 50 years ago and embedded itself into the hearts and dreams of millions of children everywhere, theme parks of a similar nature have been built all around the world. While Disneyland still remains the nexus of California's theme parks, it is no longer the only, or most unique, option for amusement in Los Angeles. Many of LA's other theme parks offer tourists the chance to ride some of the fastest roller coasters ever built or to re-enact some of the most celebrated and thrilling movie moments. It doesn't matter who you are, where you come from or which theme park you choose, there's something undeniably intoxicating about the sensory adventure waiting on the other side of the entrance gates.
The Go Los Angeles Card offers free general admission to over 35 Los Angeles attractions, including Universal Studios Hollywood, the Los Angeles Zoo, California Science Center, Los Angeles City Tour, LEGOLAND California, and the Hollywood Wax Museum.

There are plenty of kids around 5 or 6 who consider this their favorite theme park. And, for the first hour or so, anybody would be fascinated by the fact that virtually everything here is built from Legos. But once it sinks in that grown men and women spent countless hours making this world out of small plastic bricks, everything starts to seem downright creepy. There is a children's driving school that is not only fun for the kiddies, it's hilarious for adults to watch their offspring run though traffic lights and hit other cars. It's like watching an episode of World's Best Car Chases. Sequestered away in Carlsbad (a 45 minute drive from L.A.) near an Ostrich farm, this is definitely a unique experience - especially for anyone still using a sipper cup.
