I finally made up my mind---I'm going to spend the extra $'s and stay at the Disneyland Hotel--- something said for Grand Daddy of them all--The famous DLH. I actually had reservations at another Hotel that is atleast 1/2 mile away--the shuttle runs every 1/2 hour - because we need a shuttle with a lift if one showed up with out the handicapped lift we would have to wait for the next shuttle--so we might be waiting an hour or so for transportation. Same on the return from the park. Dale has Lou Gerhig's and is unable to get around without a walker or his ECV--which we bring on all of our vacations. His EVC is HOT Rod Burgundy so if you see see us at any of the parks please stop and say hello. ( You'll also know us by the big smile on our face---you know the one--the we're at Disneyland smile). 
Please feel free to respond to this post with any and all information that will make our trip GREAT. Thanks Patty
