It has always been my dream to experience Club 33 and this past Saturday, my dream came true! Sam and I had the wonderful fortune of visiting Club 33 with our friends Rick and Nat for Rick's birthday. It was our first time (probably our last as we will never in a million years have a membership.. lol) and we had a wonderful time! One of the things we were most looking forward to was seeing the original Marc Davis concept art of the stretching portraits. Upon closer inspection, we were extremely disappointed to discover that they were prints and not the originals. Even our waiter confirmed this.

This pic was taken seconds before Sam discovered the printer lines on the print.
Hello?! When did this happen? There are only two original pieces of art in Club 33 (according to the hostess). The harpsicord that belonged to Lily Disney and the following oil painting located next to the bar.

The feeling of disappointment soon faded as the evening progressed, particularly when we were invited out onto the balcony to watch Fantasmic (both showings). Not the best spot because of the trees, but very cool none the less..
What was not so cool, was the blatent discrimination between the sexes evident in the restrooms! And I'm not talking about the different commodes. Look at the tissue box in men's restroom. This is just obscene!

This ordinary no name brand of tissue, in its ordinary cardboard box is certainly not comparable to the gilded tissue box in the ladies restroom...

Wouldn't you know it? The gilded box secretly concealed Puffs brand tissue with Aloe!
Oh the humanity!!
(ok, I made that last bit up about the Puffs tissue....and Sam and I don't really care about the tissue boxes being different. We just thought it was rather funny.... the women get the big throne toilet and the fancy tissue box holder, the men get bupkis...lol)
Actually, what is really obscene is our need to take pics inside the bathrooms at Club 33!!
Anyway you can tell by the giddy expression on Sam's face that he had a great time (and a little too much to drink
).
I,too, had a fantastic night.. one that I won't soon forget!
hehehe!!
*still doing the happy dance*
