Mickey is on top of my head ;)
Disneyland is an American theme park in Anaheim, California, owned and operated by the Walt Disney Parks and Resorts division of The Walt Disney Company. It was dedicated with a press preview on July 17, 1955, and opened to the general public July 18, 1955. Disneyland holds the distinction of being the only theme park to be designed and built under the direct supervision of Walt Disney himself. Currently the park has been visited by more than 515 million guests since it opened, including presidents, royalty and other heads of state. In 1998, the theme park was re-branded "Disneyland Park" to distinguish it from the larger Disneyland Resort complex. In 2007, more than 14,800,000 people visited the park making it the second most visited park in the world, behind the Magic Kingdom at Walt Disney World.

The Happiest & Safest Place On Earth!
I'm 888BAILMAN of Anaheim and the jewel of our fine city is Disney. Disney is clean, safe and a magical place. The tourist areas all around Disney and the Convention Center are also very safe due to the continuous patrol of Anaheim Police Department. Anaheim PD is professional responding quickly and practicing proactive policing. Disney is a great vacation destination and you will be a welcomed visitor.
