HalloweenTime at DLR Info and Photo Superthread #3

[Sherry E]

OK, life has been a bit nuts getting the boys off for their senior year of college and following along with my favorite trip reporters and Christmas time super thread. How did I miss that this superthread had turned into part 3???

I'm now subscribed and 24 pages behind. Time to get a nice beverage and catch up.

I was wondering where you'd been, TK! I mean, of course, I have seen you over in the TR's and in the Christmas thread but I wondered if you had somehow overlooked this thread! I was wondering why you hadn't contributed any photos to the Theme Weeks when I was mentioning the Halloween Theme Weeks in Bret's TR and in my TR, and even in the Christmas Superthread! Glad to finally have you aboard! Better late than never.

We are now in the 5th Theme Week of the Halloween Time countdown. "Treats & Treasures." There is one more major theme next Friday, and then a mini-daily theme each day between 9/7 and 9/14. And on 9/14 it will be a Miscellaneous day for all the extra Theme Week photos that people want to post that didn't make it in to previous Theme Weeks, or whatever they choose to post.

They finally updated the Disneyland.com calendar up to October 11th. I still don't see Big Thunder Mountain on the list of closed attractions??

Still hoping the BTMRR rumor was false!

These are all from October 2010.

I know right?? Guess all my photos will be in the misc. daily countdowns. I read comments in the other threads but never connected the dots that I wasn't getting any daily emails saying the Halloween thread had been updated. Perhaps I shouldn't admit that....

Little late tonight, but here are pics of the treats and treasures during the Halloween season

Last year's popcorn bucket

Mickey Popcorn bucket from 2010. I remember this bucket a lot since they were sold out that year.

MHP merchandise from 2010

Oh sweet DLH Superthread! I have missed you. I have stayed off due to a dreadful thing called work and the other thing called life!
You are my inspiration for my Halloween scrapbooks and swapping and getting to Oct 11th will be much easier with you!

Ok, thats my love letter to this wonderful site of Sheri's!
I hereforth promise to look at this site once a day until at least Nov 10th!

How is everyone? Getting excited for your trips? 41 days and counting here!
Thanks everyone for posting all of the great photos!
I have alot of reading to catch up on so hope everyone has a super day!

I feel the same way! These treats look so good! I can't wait to spend my money!!

 

[Carrie in AZ]

Oh my gosh!! I have to have one of those coffin popcorn buckets.....do you think they will have them again this year or do they change them out every year? Boo hoo if they do. I may just have to go take a look on ebay!! LOL!

I got one last year.

You could also get those NBC coffin buckets with a sammich deal they had at the French Quarter. Hopfully they bring them back, they are high on my "must get" list.

In my opinion the sandwich was a much better deal. It was maybe a few dollars more than a popcorn, and you got a sandwich and I think chips as well!

Of course, I didn't actually taste the sandwich. Maybe it was awful or something!

TK -

Oh, I see...it sounds like you missed the switch to this new home when we almost hit the 250-page point in the last thread. And so, at a quick glance, if you were just skimming down the page of the main DL forum and you saw the title of this thread, it probably looked almost like the last thread and you wouldn't have suspected that anything was different.

In any case, you're here now and that's what's important! I know you'll have some great photos to share. Do you have any Treat/Treasure pics to throw into the mix this week?






Bret, I see that you got in a great post with wonderful pictures last night - which surprised me, as I know you're off at the anime show. I didn't expect any theme week contributions from you until you returned. Thank you, Bret!





Eeee-va, I must say that I always love your photos (in both this thread and the Christmas thread), because you always feature Duffy or some other kind of character against a backdrop that fits the theme or is somehow interacting with something within the theme! I get a kick out of those shots - they bring a smile to my face every time!



Mike - it's okay that you didn't have too many food/merchandise photos. They're still crystal clear and fantastic. Your photos are always amazing, as we all know. Plus - and I don't want to give anything away - but I think that next Friday's theme will be a bonanza for you (and for Bret, too, actually). It's a broad theme, with lots of things to take photos of. I know that you will have no shortage of pictures to share!



Hi, Rita! Welcome back!! I'm so glad you're enjoying this thread (when you have time to visit it). Thank you for the kind words, as always.

So I was looking and I did not see anything on the boo to you parade?, does DL have that like WDW?

 

[L1l1y2]

So I called this afternoon to book the tour for the day of the party I had purchased tickets to. Since I didn't know about the UE at the time. At first she wasn't able to do it. Aparantley you can't just book the evening tour that occurs just before the party. It can only be booked by doing the UE. My CM who was helping me was able to help me by having me puchase completely new UE tix and refunded me for my party tix. Hopefully the refund goes through. Just wanted to give anyone a heads up that had my same thinking. Sometimes I feel so lost with this stuff.

We have a "cavalcade" (I'd call it a small parade). Not like I've heard WDW's parade is, but a fun little thing to watch.

We will be there on halloween.

Our vacation is just around the corner. I love seeing my countdown each time I post.

My DS4 is very excited about his costume. I let him pick whatever he wanted. He decided on a zebra. The little guy will be an elephant. My DH wasn't thrilled about dressing up but I think I have him convinced to be a safari guide.

Very excited to see Carsland and Halloween for the very first time. Hoping DCA has Halloween decorations too.

Starting to feel sad that my AP will expire in January.

Here is a contribution:

This is what I chose and then to my DISmay took a bite of the Mickey chocolate piece before I took a picture. What was I thinking?? You can hardly tell right?

Would any DL trip be complete without the obligatory mug?

 

[JadeDarkstar]

where do you get the mug ohhhhh
