In 2011, the International Test Conference was held in the Disneyland Hotel, Anaheim. Here's a selection of pics from my trip - hover on an image for a description or click on it for a larger view.
Disneyland Hotel's "Fantasy Tower" - home for the week.
Downtown Disney.
Downtown Disney, main entrance.
Main pool area in the evening...
... but in daylight you can see that it's still a work in progress.
Ornamention over one of the entrances to the Disney World shop.
Entrance plaza for the parks at Disneyland.
Inside the "foyer" of the "A Bug's Land" theatre. The fetching eyewear sported by the guy in the foreground are the 3D glasses needed for the show.
The Hollywood Towers Hotel. I wouldn't recommend staying there (it's a ride!).
Private reception in A Bug's Land (Flick's Fairground).
Flick's Fairground again.
Mickey drops by the reception. Someone must have told him there was free booze.
Our group collects at the Paradise Pier lagoon for the World of Color show. OK, Disney call it a "spectacular", not a show.
In the evening, Downtown Disney has several live performers. OK, they're also trying to sell their CDs too, but it gives the whole place a bit of life.
"Honey, do you remember where we parked the car?"
Disneyland Drive, with the Paradise Pier Hotel on the right.
I'm not sure what kind of plant this is. I guess it's some kind of cactus (Apparently it's a Bird of Paradise plant).
A parrot entertaining outside the Rainforest Cafe.
Yellow cabs hoping for fares coming out of Downtown Disney.
Tangaroa Terrace, a poolside bistro in the main hotel complex.
