I have pictures of the "secret club" known as Club 33 over in FairyTaleBride's trippie.

So how did you like it, I am assuming that you had dinner there.

Did you take the stairs or the "Lift"

And tell the truth did you bring Zip-Lock bags to sneak out some of the desserts?

Not that we would ever do that ......

 

[Goofster57]

Ok, On with the tour

Here is the Fantasmic Dessert Buffet Balcony from below.

If you look closely in the last picture you can see Walt and Roy’s initials in the iron work

To get to the balcony during the day you use the staircase to the left and pass through the Disney Gallery located above the Pirates of Caribbean attraction.

This area was supposed to be a living area for the Disney family, but unfortunately Walt passed before that could happen, currently it is the Disney Gallery where you can find high end Disney collectable art work and usually some memorabilia displayed. They always had some movie props from Pirates displayed when the movies were released.
Sadly the Gallery is going to close this month and they are going to turn it into a new “Guest Experience” the rumor is that it will be a suite that you can rent for in excess of $5,000 a night, but hey you can say you spent the night in Disneyland.

Looking down on the POC line from the Gallery

And across the river to the island

Here are some pictures of a small patio in the middle of the Gallery, this is a very nice place to take a rest, well it was….

Here is a look out on the Fantasmic Balcony

As you can see they were setting up for this nights performance

The stage across the river is where most of the Fantasmic Show takes place

I believe these are the stairs that you use to get to the balcony in the evening

So that concludes this pictorial tour, here are some random crowd shots as we were headed to the Main Gate.

My next post will be of the "Club" so check back

See ya in the parks

Run an extension cord out to the pool?

 

[KatGarcia]

Here are my fav pics we took....

 

[Goofster57]

I think you guys had to deal with bigger crowds then we did.

Thanks for adding your pictures

 

[blue_river]

Now I'm all caught up!

These picture TR's are really neat Goofster, especially since it may be a long time before I ever get to DL.

I wish I wasn't on dial up though, it takes so long for me to load the pages.

Looking forward to the club pictures

 

[blue_river]

Run an extension cord out to the pool?

No, but did you read about the little fire we had (I posted about it in Kathy's TR)

DH used a damaged extension cord for the pool pump

When I called him at work to tell him about it, his reply was the same thing he always says when things go wrong "Gee, I didn't think that would happen"

 

[Goofster57]

his reply was the same thing he always says when things go wrong
"Gee, I didn't think that would happen"

Well of course, that’s what they taught us in "Man Speak 101"

and here I thought they only taught you how to grunt

Thanks Kathy,
I can almost imagine myself standing on the baloneys during Mardi Gras with a handful of beads….

Speaking of beads I forgot to mention that the band throws out beads while they play, you don’t have to do the same thing you do in New Orleans for them.

and here I thought they only taught you how to grunt

Oh no they teach us much more then that, most of it is useless, but then we are Men ya know.

No wonder DH always wants to go there

Oh we know...

Speaking of Men...Have you ever watched "The Man Show"?

Ok, as promised here is a photo tour of “Club 33” a private dinning facility located in Disneyland’s New Orleans Square.

I would like to claim to be a member, but alias I am only a humble peasant that had the good fortune to break bread in the establishment a few times and take a behind the scenes tour during a Cast Family and Friends night. These are a compilation of the pictures of those experiences.

Do to the number of pictures (Sorry Blue) I will post this in a number of instalments

Stairway to second floor

Elevator to second floor

Reception Desk

Second Floor landing

Goofster party of 8

Hello, May I speak to Mickey please?

Yo, Is my Dawg Pluto in?

 

[Goofster57]

Here are some shots of the dinning areas, as I recall there were two different sections, a main room then the other was like a small library.

Buffet line

Dessert, Pastries Table

This is the womens restroom

Toilet

I don't have any shots of the men's room becasue as usual the men got short changed again, if you seen one men's room you've seen then all.

 

[Goofster57]

Here a few random shots to finish the installment off.
This is looking up to the “Club” windows

This is the view from those windows.

Here are some more shots from a balcony of the “Club”

Here is an item for purchase while you are at the “Club”
A Leather Jacket that was available, I believe the price tag was in the &350.00 range

No we did not buy it she is just trying it on

Hope you enjoyed this short tour, hopefully we will get to return to the “Club” someday.
