Saturday, July 7: Downtown Disney, food, drink, and fireworks?

Aww, Mousewife, it would have been great if we were going at the same time. We're going to stay at the Asilomar Conference Grounds ourselves.

I say everyone meet up in Santa Cruz! Good Times to be had by all there.......

That would have been cool. Especially with so much going on for the summer, a lot to do. Usually when we go it is winter-ish and not a lot for the kids.

Hmm. SCT I still can't place it but I will look for it this time. That name, I'll remember 'Star Trek'.

Well, if I get back in time I will post a review of the ACC. We also decided to stay there for the same reason as you. I kept envisioning the Wharf, Cannery Row, and then the lovely grounds and all of Pacific Grove we never have explored. The building looks awesome, designed by the woman who did the Hearst Castle, right?

Did you guys reserve a room with a fireplace? We did but were told that it is not a guarentee. That would be so perfect out there. You know it is going to be chilly and when the fog rolls in a fire will be perfect.

The price was pretty good as well. Includes breakfast which is good, too.

Anyways, we will be back here about the 7th, I think.

Bummer, iSm.



MouseWife, you just know we requested a fireplace and got the "no promises" song and dance. Yeah, many of the buildings at Asilomar were designed by Julia Morgan, famed Hearst Castle architect

Yeah, and the promise of having the difference refunded doesn't really mean squat, does it? I mean, we have reservations for a room with a fireplace, how hard is it to make sure we get one? I mean, when they accepted our requests, they had them.

Those front desk clerks just have to keep stronger backbones and not cave into other people coming in and trying to steal them!!
