In June I will be spending a week in Huntington Beach for business. So there is no family going!  :thumbs: I wanted to do something fun one day of the trip and thinking about visiting either Knotts Berry Farm or Disneyland. Which would you choose and why? 
Thanks.

Disneyland...just because. Always went there as a kid.  :thumbs: One day is almost not enough though.

Lounging on the beach is always fun :)

Although Disney Land would be cool, my nerdieness points me to the berry farm.

??? Have you been there?

It is like Six Flags, or Great AMerica, but with Charlie Brown and snoopy. :lol: No berries.

The hotel that I will be staying in is on the beach, I think. The Farms are cheaper for a day pass.

Both.

We stayed at the Embassy Suites right in Buena Park right by Knotts Berry Farm in 2005. It's withing walking distance to the Buena Park Mall, the Wax Museum, Medieval Times, Knott's Berry Farm, McDonald's, and a Claim Jumper (sort of like a Chili's).

The Embassy Suites had free shuttle service to and from Disneyland. We took them up on that and their free breakfast buffet.

We bought Medieval Times and Disney park passes online and saved a bunch of money before out trip. Disney ROCKED. Indiana Jones ride, and The Hotel of Terror in California Adventure land was the shiz!!!

I have pictures if you want to see them!

Disneyland is more for kids as far as rides, so if you're not looking for big coasters then it's perfect. But If you are nex door is California adventure, both places can have lines up to an hour for each ride. Disneyland is a good time, good food, then go puke at california adventure.


Knotts berry farm has some big coasters/ rides and is pretty fun in general. I think it's cheaper also.

You could also hit Universal studios.

Huntington beach is awesome! you'll have a great time right there also.

It is also interesting to note, it costs an arm and a leg to get into Disney.

$75 if I remember right, in 2005.

Disneyland is where its at for me.  We went all the time when we were living out there, worth it with our annual passes.  Let me see if I can get a hook up on passes still.
