...........................CONT..........................
First thing's first....gotta decorate the DOOR, of course!!! I made these all before I left home and I made sure to remember to bring tape along in my carry on!
We were given room 717 on the 7th Floor (obviously!)
I LOVED our room! It was HUGE to me compared to other Disney hotels that I had stayed in!!
I loved the decor, too! It was all centered around California Adventure. That couch pulled out to a sofa bed!
My favorite part was of course, the Mickey Lamp!!
Another view of the room. The closet was huge, too! Inside was a crib with all of the blankets/sheets to fit it and the sofa bed! I thought that was too cool!!
The Bathroom
The Bathroom #2
I LOVED the little extras! The bottles were SO cute! The mickey heads flipped up to make a squeeze bottle! I bought like a million of them home!! Haha!!
Now one of the best parts...........OUR VIEW! No it wasn't a theme park view, but it wasn't of a parking lot, either!!
THE POOL complete with slide!
If you looked directly out and down the window in our room, this is what you saw!
I loved our room keys, too!
TV cabinet complete with refrigerator and a safe!
Before too long, we realized we were hungry! We decided to eat our "plane food"! Hehe! I took one bite of that chicken sandwich and almost barfed. The bread was DISGUSTING. I decided to chop up the chicken and add it to my salad. THAT tasted a lot better but it wasn't great! We also realized that we didn't have anything to drink so DH set out on a quest for a coke!
What he came back with was a Cherry Coke that he paid $2.75 for!!!
While we were eating, a knock came on the door from a housekeeper. When she saw that we were in the room, she was like, "Oh I'm SO sorry!" and hurried up and left. I thought that was quite suspicious since the room was fresh and already cleaned! Hmmm.......
Since we weren't on the dining plan, I decided to bring snacks to eat during the week! This is all that made it safely across the country on a plane! lol!
Something else that was given to us upon check in ... a personalized itinerary!! I was so impressed! It showed park hours of the parks every day and also gave times for our PS for the week!!
After eating, it was time to hit up Downtown Disney!! At the elevators, DH made a philosophical announcement!! "This morning, THESE VERY socks were in Louisiana! And now...they are in......California!"
He's too crazy sometimes!!
The Downtown Disney sign!
Couldn't forget one in front of our hotel!
Disney's Paradise Pier!
Up next: Downtown Disney, EXTRA PIXIE DUST, and What's WRONG with my EYE??
