As always, I am really enjoying your report!
great update can't wait to read more
Yes, it was very warm on Halloween night for sure! We did both POC and HM before the party started as well - our night there were no lines for anything at that time - it was great!
Even though I'm not Jaimie....I can't wait to hangout at Samawati Springs...thanks for the warning about the drinks....
Argh.
Now who's the Disney nut? Ed saying "We're gonna be late?"....kinda brings a smile to my face....
Awsome section did you guys see the MASSIVE wave of people at the turnstiles at the start of the night Also i gotta tell you my celeberty sighting! Ill wait until you post the rest though!
I can't wait to see pictures of all of you!!
I made a face. Well, if I wasnt so busy helping everyone else with their costumes, Id be dressed by now! He grumbled a little under his breath about always being late as he finished packing his backpack and went to round up the kids.
I'm sure you will take one sip and think, "Boy, Kathy is such a lightweight!"
Kathy said:Now let me say that Ed is simply just one of those people who likes to be on time, even early. Unfortunatlely he married an "I'll get there when I get there" kind of gal! I told him that we could get in with our party tickets as early as four and he locked onto that target like a Patriot missile!

You may recall from the PTR that DSis and I had gone through a very tough time trying to find pirate costumes that were age-appropriate for two thirteen year-old girls. Most of the costumes were quite trashy: Vixen Pirate Wench, Captain Pirate Booty, Provocative Piratess, etc. Heaven forbid they just throw on a pair of old black pants and a white shirt and tie a sash around their waists. After all, they had to look gorgeous! I had finally come across a Pirate Lass costume that would fit them and did not reveal too much, so I bought it for Tricia and DSis got the same one for Catie. Surprisingly, the girls did not have the slightest problem with wearing the same outfit; they simply planned to accessorize them differently.
Mom, help me do Caties eyeliner, I cant get it right! I turned and faced the girls who had come into our bathroom carrying their makeup bags. If only I had my camera there to take a picture of the botched eyeliner! Alas, I am not in the habit of bringing one into the bathroom, even at Disney. They looked more like raccoons than sultry pirates, although I admit that Catie had done a bit better job on her cousin than Tricia had done on her. Quickly we performed damage control and the girls were satisfied.

Not to sound snarky or anything, but I was amazed at the number of guests entering and exiting the park who did not stop for a moment in deference to our flag being lowered and The Star Spangled Banner being sung. Shame on them!
What a great bunch of pirates!!! I love the girls pirate tights!
We really needed a tension-breaker and at that very moment, in walked two people dressed up as a bottle of mustard and a bottle of ketchup! They looked around and, seeing that all the tables were taken, sat themselves down on the bleachers and began to eat their hot dogs.
Well.
Tricia and Catie thought it was hysterical and began to laugh hard. Then, who should come along to join them but a giant hot dog and an order of fries! The entire room was laughing now and the condiments waved to the crowd while their partners settled down and began to eat hot dogs and French fries!
Thats a little creepy if you think about it, said Catie.
Yeah, its like theyre cannibals or something, replied Tricia.
That's great!!!
