that’s it? sure looks small. I remember it being alot larger; but I was only 8.LOL what is the large white building to the south(not true compass setting) and the rectangular white building to the northwest (again not the true compass setting)?
The building to the south is the Anaheim Convention Center. The one to the northwest is the Mickey & Friends parking structure. It was built because the former parking lot for Disneyland that was to the south of the entrance was taken out and Disney’s California Adventure was built in its place. DCA is the park between Disneyland and the convention center.
It is so weird to see Disneyland from the air, “landlocked” by the city of Anaheim around it. I grew up in Orlando, where Walt bought thousands and thousands of acres, where Disney has its own little “empire” well away from any other commercial development.
