I promised some fabulous pictures and to be honest, this does not even come close to reality. The hotel was absolutely gorgeous. The staff was wonderful, the food, YUMMY! and to top it off the Color Connections Classes were awesome too.
The *ONLY* bad part... The rooms are a little old and the acoustics, not so good. Let's just say we had very noisy neighbors, and that was with ipod buds and music in my ears. I also recommend not getting a street side room. I think there was an unofficial drag race going on Saturday night. But really- not enough to keep me from going back.
Before our classes started Sunday, we took a short walk and snapped a couple pic's. This is from the patio dining area looking up around 8am.
Our lunch was in this room. Looks like an old chapel. Long and narrow on the inside.
After our classes were over and we placed our orders, we found this!! YUM!! She was a winner on Cupcake Wars, a hopping place! There were at least a dozen different flavors to choose from, so we settled on 6!
After dinner Patti and I decided to tour the entire hotel. STUNNING! This the surrounding of the patio from the 3rd floor. With all the lights it looked like a miniature city.
Our lunch spot at night...
5 flights of stairs. This is as close as I could get to the rail for a picture. My favorite view with a tight grip on the railing!
From the bottom!
Time for dessert! My favorite, the Lemon. Delish!
So I was told Riverside is about 30 minutes from Anaheim- I think we might just make a detour on our way to CHA Winter this year. If not for the hotel, than for some CUPCAKES :)
