Club 33

This past weekend was so fun! My friend, Ronni, retired from AT&T. To celebrate we were able to go to Disneyland and experience Club 33. It is a private club (of which AT&T is a member) right in the middle of Disneyland above Pirates of the Caribbean. You have to hit the buzzer to let them know you are there. Then they come down and get you. It only has a "33" on the outside of the door so not real obvious to the usual tourist in Disneyland. The ambience is amazing- very elegant. You do not feel the excitement of Disneyland going on outside. Instead, you feel as though you are in a special restaurant - which you are.... not the usual wait in line for half an hour and then have to try and find a seat amongst hundreds of others in the heat. Instead, there were 2 tables reserved for 19, very attentive waiters, great salads, entrees, fancy desserts, gorgeous interiors. Very impressive and very exclusive. How lucky was I to able to be a part of the celebration!!! It was a fast trip. I did manage a visit with Joanie and Allen. So special note to Barb and other friends and family in So CAL-- I did not have time to get down to San Diego like I would have!
