Lost ?!?! I don't THINK so...

We just got a Western USA Map for our Tomtom.

It covers Washington, Oregon, Idaho, California, Nevada, Utah and Arizona. It also partially covers Montana

I've loaded it and tried it out, and it says it's only 30 mins from Lisas place to Disneyland !!

I'm hoping it's accurate, cos we're dreadful at navigating, so this will be very handy. AND I also found out that the Mickey & Friends Car Park is located at 1301 S Disneyland Drive !!

This trip is feeling VERY real and VERY close now.......

Ok the big question? Does yours have an Aussie accent? I love listening to a friends GPS tell him, 'recaculating' which translates into he missed a turn!

Lisa's place is about 30 minutes from DL....when there is no traffic to contend with. Good luck on that one!

I don't know how often the software is updated, but don't forget that in order better balance traffic and reduce road repair costs California drives on the left side of the road MON, WED, SAT and the right side on TUE, THU, SUN.

Actually, we have carpool lanes practically through to Mickey & Friends - I think we've made it in 20 minutes before - of course, there's still the tram wait. security check, and entrance gate to get through - that sometimes doubles our time.

You guys are good....I live 3 miles from the Park and it still takes me 45 minutes to get to the Main Gate (at least now with the crowds)!

Haven't you seen how Lisa drives?

Ditto. <10 minutes from our garage to the freeway exit for Disneyland. 30 minutes, minimum, to get into the parking structure, park, get on the tram, get through security.

What's this "tram" I keep reading about? the walkway to the parks is so pleasant (except for that horrible baby store)

That's OK - I drive on the Median Strip.
