Day three was long, so we took it easy on Day Four. We left our hotel and drove to Garden Grove, California- a suburb of Anaheim. We settled into the Embassy Suites Anaheim- South. This was a beautiful hotel, and we were on the 9th floor. The rooms were huge and beautiful! Xander absolutely loved looking out the huge window at the world (which made us really nervous! I know that the windows might be secure but having fallen through a "secure" window years ago I'm paranoid.) This place is on the more pricey side, but worth it. Parking is still free, but internet access is $10.00 per day.
The lobby and atrium was beautiful, with a jungle theme including Koi ponds and a lion that "roared."
The morning breakfast was incredible (as it has been in every Embassy Suites we've been to.) Made-to-order omelettes, fresh fruit, cereal, pastries, and Xander's favorite- BACON. There is also a Disneyland stand in the lobby where I bought our tickets for the next couple of days. Ouch! $350+ for 2 adults and one child...but he's only a kid once, right?
The best part of this hotel was the pool and hot tub. Since everyone must have been at Disney, we had it to ourselves and really relaxed for the rest of the day (except for a trip to Target for supplies and an early lunch at Ruby's Diner.) We ordered room service for dinner....I LOVE room service, and it was reasonably priced.
After Xander went to bed we got "Running With Scissors" on Pay-Per-View, based on the memoir by Augusten Burroughs. We only made it half way through and were able to pause for up to 24 hours.
