Whew, had a problem yesterday getting my tickets for tonight's party but was finally able to get them and print them this a.m. So we are definitely going (even though DD11 has the sniffles). I am borrowing my Dsis better camera for the night shots and will have mine for daytime shots.

I will post my new photos in the next few days and maybe even a small TR.

Time to leave in about 1/2 hour. Need to get ready!

Jazz - They don't have the lights out yet - or if they do hang them on the Castle, they don't turn them on until the holiday season begins. It's the fake "snow" that's on the Castle early. But the Winter Castle doesn't become aglow like the true Winter Castle until November 12th.

I swear I'm not a basket case. I was in a hurry and lights was the first word that popped into my head, even though I was totally thinking about the snow. It's taking me longer and longer to get over my overnight shift these days. My brain is confudled.

Here are some pics from Sunday:

Thanks for all the awesome photos!! I LOVE this candy apple - don't think I've seen a Jack Skellington one before!

Such a cute picture LKD! Your Tink outfit looks great, I love that you went with that option over the more traditional one!!

That Peter has a heart of GOLD! He literally made my son's year last night. Such a special CM.

Overall, I thought the party was fun but it felt a lot more chaotic than when it was held at DCA. Still glad we went! I didn't get the big deal with the fireworks honestly, kind of wish we'd done something else during. We did really love seeing Zero over the castle though.

Hi All! I attended Mickey's Halloween Party last night and really enjoyed myself! Did anyone else go? I saw soem great costumes and wanted to see if I perhaps saw any of you there! I was Cleopatra and my bf was Marc Antony. We had a great time, saw lots of characters, and enjoyed the parade and FW. We didn't get much candy but still enough for me!

Some cavalcade photos! Just wanted to share.

Thanks for sharing Laura. These pictures are great!

 

[amamax2]

Wow - fabulous pictures Laura! Thanks so much!

 

[LKD]

Thanks everyone ^-^ He is a very special cm!

ltlmermaid- I think I saw you! My group was pretty big so I'm sure you saw part of us since we kept breaking apart. We had me as Tink, an Esmerelda, Cinderella, Belle, Jasmine, Pocahontas, Vanessa, Anastasia (don bluth's), The Evil Queen and I'm so half asleep I can't remember who else was with us lol

 

[JH87]

Amazing pictures as usual Laura!

We got home late Monday night and already want to go back! DH asked what I want for dinner tonight - and my quick response was CORN DOGS from the Little Red Wagon please!

MHP (10/22) was awesome!! We had a full moon and the weather was just perfect for the party! We will definitely plan to do it again another year! I'll post pictures later this week after I comb thru them and see what all I have! The highlight of the night for us was getting a photo with Malificent! Halloween Screams was very cool - although they need to rope off the areas like they do for the normal fireworks. That part seemed chaotic and stressful having people push their way thru the crowd with stollers. (Remember Dreams fireworks the next night was totally organized and roped off with walkways to keep traffic moving).

Thanks for all the Cavalcade pics from everyone! We missed it both times it ran! We were focused on character pics and just didn't make it back for either parade.

Trick or Treaing was insane at the beginning of the party - so we took everyone's advice and waited until later. By about 10p, there were no lines for candy and we breezed right on thru. We only did two trails and filled up our little bags

There were no Mickey popcorn buckets to be found anywhere - a CM told us they were expecting another shipmient on Monday so hopefully they will get more.

We also did the Haunted Gingerbread House workshop at Ralph Brennan's Jazz Kitchen. Totally fun event to do! The head chef comes out and guides you thru the assembly of your house and then you decorate it. They provide decorations, but you can bring your own too. We took some candy Mickey's to add to ours! They have a limited menu available during the event, so you can order lunch. Drinks and all supplies to build a house are included in the price. I think there are one or two more of these being offered. (Pics to follow!)

Ok back to work now. Thanks again to everyone who posted advice and tips!!!

Well...It's been 8 business days and I am STILL awaiting my almost $1000 refund from Park Vue Inn that they stated would only take 5 business days at most. Just got off the phone with them and they sounded as if they had NO idea what I was talking about and they didn't even noticed on my reservation number that I never got to check in. I have a feeling this is going to be a really long hassle and that in the end I'll have to report them to the BBB in order to get my refund. I will NEVER book a hotel with them again. I am overly angry

LKD: Yes I actually talked to the "Anastasia" in your group while we were in line for the Villains, I recognized her dress and asked her about it. You all had great costumes though!

I love dressing up, and getting photos with the characters while in a costume is priceless!

Me too! Halloween is my favorite holdiay, because it gives me a chance to wear clothing that I normally wouldn't for fear of people thinking I was crazy or a re-enactor who got lost on the way to the Revoluntary or Civil War, lol. I've always said I was born in the wrong century!

LKD, because of your awesome Drizella costume, I'm forcing my friends to do MHP Cinderella theme...in 2013. We already decided before we even went to MHP this year that we would do Beauty and the Beast next year, then Mary Poppins in 2012 (I'm going to be the penguin!) and Cinderella after that, because I want to be Anastasia!!
