Narrative:
Before this flight, I obtained a WX briefing from the riverside FSS. The briefer gave me a NOTAM that stated a 'no loitering over disneyland.' I did a practice PAR approach into los alamitos aaf. After the approach, I proceeded northeast bound towards corona. I knew I was close to disneyland and I contacted socal approach as soon as possible after leaving los alamitos tower. Upon contact with socal, he said I was in the tfr over disneyland which was within 3 NM and 3000 ft AGL. I was right over the top at 1000 ft AGL. The controller had me turn eastbound and climb at my best rate. I realized that disneyland was a sensitive area and that is why I contacted socal as soon as possible. If the WX briefer told me a distance and altitude, I would have had no problem avoiding the tfr because I have a lot of experience flying in this area.

AFTER THE APCH, I PROCEEDED NE BOUND TOWARDS CORONA. I KNEW I WAS CLOSE TO DISNEYLAND AND I CONTACTED SOCAL APCH ASAP AFTER LEAVING LOS ALAMITOS TWR. UPON CONTACT WITH SOCAL, HE SAID I WAS IN THE TFR OVER DISNEYLAND WHICH WAS WITHIN 3 NM AND 3000 FT AGL. I WAS RIGHT OVER THE TOP AT 1000 FT AGL. THE CTLR HAD ME TURN EBOUND AND CLB AT MY BEST RATE. I REALIZED THAT DISNEYLAND WAS A SENSITIVE AREA AND THAT IS WHY I CONTACTED SOCAL ASAP.
