Christmas Night
Twas the night before Christmas when all through the houseNo electrons were flowing through even my mouse.
All devices were plugged in by the chimney with careWith the hope that St. Nikola Tesla would share.
HISTORY
About a dozen years or so ago, there was a formal Guest Program that added certain meals and activities for the guests. As time went on this got more and more expensive to provide, so fewer people began to attend and it just died out. While there were several reasons things didn’t work out then, there is still a desire today for the Spouses and Guests attending the meeting to be able to meet each other and possibly see the sites or do something together.
Steven A. Arndt will become the new ANS president in June at the California meeting. As his wife and “ANS First Lady” I am going to try and offer some information to you all and some options for gathering.
Anaheim Gardenwalk restaurants and stores.
ANNAHEIM
The Anaheim Packing House
This area offers a lot of fun things to do – the most obvious being Disneyland, California Adventure, etc. There are also other options than the amusement parks. Downtown Disney has a selection of retail stores, and restaurants, some of which have live entertainment. The Packing District is an old meat packing building that has been converted into a food hall (which also delivers!) In fact, most of the major attractions are all within a small distance of our hotel. Disneyland is one block away.
Don’t overlook the hotel’s indoor/outdoor pools, spa, fitness center and all the usual things we’ve come to expect from good hotels.
TRANSPORTATION
If you are not a walker there is a transportation system called FRAN (area resort transit). It is free and runs from noon to 8PM. You order this service using an app on your phone.
Let ART do all the driving and save the stress of parking!
To plan your ride, Download our APP Rider App Information or ask a hotel representative, or visit the ART Information Center at ARTIC. For travel outside our current routes, ART connects with other transportation providers
ART provides service 7 days a week. Service typically begins one hour before the Disneyland Resort® opens and continues until 30 minutes after close. For daily schedules and route times click on your preferred route under “Routes and Schedules” in the menu bar. ART connects you to theme parks, hotels, restaurants, shopping, dining, and other destinations within the Anaheim Resort area, including the cities of Anaheim, Garden Grove, Buena Park, Costa Mesa and Orange.
