Not Disneyland, but a "downtown" with eateries shops and restauarants and wonderfull plantings.
This is the Disney California Hotel all done in a "Craftsman style.

A nice planter to say the least!

If memory serves me correctly it was in the California Hotel where MikeW and I, along with a few other long-gone AP members, first met LeeAnne.  That visit several years ago was the first time I had visited Downtown Disney.

Well worth it Mike.
We ate here, could pass for new orleans!
Can anyone tell me how to pronounce the capital of Louisiana?  Is it New Orleens, or New Orlins?
 lol

We were in Anaheim to see my Grandson play baseball. Jake went 4 for 4 and got hit by a pitch.
Drove in many runs.

I think HollDoll is correct with the pronunciation  O0

During summer months there is free live musical entertainment in many areas of the "Downtown."  Quite a good variety of music.  Sometimes we bring a our own picnic, as dining there all the time gets very expensive and time consuming.

You get to see fireworks from Disneyland too!
