You Can Visit Quite A Few TV Cartoon Characters On A Southern California Vacation

In recent months I’ve had the chance to go to most of the seven major theme  parks in So Cal. If you would like to see some of the beloved animated movie and TV characters “live” these  parks are the place for you.

Of course Disneyland is the first park that comes to mind, with Dumbo, Mickey, Goofy and the others. The Disneyland Resort is a popular vacation destination for a lot of reasons and you’ll want the insight of locals to plan the best trip. Nobody has done a better job of breathing life into  fictional characters than the Disney folks.

Nearby Knott’s  Berry Farm has its own crew of lovable characters with Lucy, Snoopy and the Peanuts team at Camp Snoopy. The Peanuts guys have been at Knott’s Berry Farm for quite awhile now and seem to feel at home there.

Your next stop would be Universal Studios Hollywood and the many TV and movie stars such as Betty Boop, the Hulk, Batman and Spiderman, joined most recently by Homer Simpson and his wonderful family. Plan out your trip to the crazy characters at the Universal Studios theme park by doing a little research with the SoCal Vacation Guru.

The third park to visit for characters would be Six Flags Magic Mountain up in Valencia. The first thing you see when you get close to the park are the Six Flags roller coasters. It does not take long to figure out that the Looney Tunes people are in charge of public relations.

Here and there around the park you will find some of your favorites, like Daffy, Bugs Bunny and Yosemite Sam. The childrens’ area has attractions centered around these whacky celebrities, which is a nice break from the thrill rides that dominate the place. The characters are very charming and are pretty easy to find around the mountain.
