Part 1: Is it sunny in California?
Returning to Anaheim in January for the 2nd time, Steve
looks forward to heading to Disneyland before the
conference begins. But once again, it is raining like
crazy! |
| |
|
| |
Part 2: LA via Kansas City
For a change of pace, this time Steve flies out of Chicago's
Midway Airport on Southwest
Airlines. Unfortunately, they find a stopover in an
evil city from hell. |
| |
|
| |
Part 3: What computers?
Setting up shop at the Anaheim
Hilton and Towers, getting ready to setup the Internet
cafe known as the "CPC
eZone". Unfortunately, the computers are stuck in
Texas! |
| |
|
| |
Part 4: Disneyland is wet
Disneyland
celebrates their 50th anniversary with lots of gold
and blue decor... and rain. But who cares, Space
Mountain is open once again and it rocks! |
| |
|
| |
Part 5: The eZone is alive!
The embargoed shipment of computers finally arrive in
California, enabling the team to setup the eZone.
No virus or spyware issues this time around. And Blair! |
| |
|
| |
Part 6: She likes it!
Steve writes: "The featured musician at the conference,
Babbie
Mason, just stopped me in the hallway. She really
liked my nametag for some reason." |
| |
|
| |
Part 7: Digital Signboard Nametags
Kidology staff members sport some nifty
nametags that spark questions from attendees. They
are catchy little devices promoting the eZone
and iPod giveaway. |
| |
|
| |
Part 8: Out the window
Hey, you can see the Anaheim
Convention Center, the Disneyland
Hotel, Disney's
Paradise Pier Hotel, and that wonderful mediocre
Disney's
California Adventure! |
| |
|
| |
Part 9: Food poisoning at CPC?
Various members of the Kidology team get sick
from conference food, resulting in lots of later trips
to the local Quiznos
Sub. Wow, Doritos
has a new logo! |
| |
|
| |
Part 10: Thomas Kinkade does Disneyland
The goofy Painter
of Light™ strikes again, this time taking cash from
the Mouse's coffers. It's called "Disneyland
50th Anniversary". Gee, worked hard on that name. |
| |
|
| |
Part 11: Still raining in Disneyland
Our story reverts back to the Happiest Wettest
Place on Earth. Great chance to see Buzz
Lightyear Astro Blasters and Walt
Disney's Enchanted Tiki Room! |
| |
|
| |
Part 12: Nighttime and Fireworks!
The rain tapers off, resulting in a blissful evening at
Disneyland. Catch the Christmas
lights. Even better, the awesome Remember
Dreams Come True fireworks show! |
| |
|
| |
Part 13: Disneyland and Anaheim's Third Theme Park
Back in 1998, Disney bought the Fujishige
Farm location near the Disneyland Resort location.
They plan on building a third
theme park next to Disneyland and Disney's California
Adventure. |
| |
|
| |
Part 14: No power in Vegas
The conference comes to an end, but not before Steve can
talk about In-N-Out
Burger. The flight from LAX goes through Las
Vegas, where airport
power is knocked out. |
