All those pretty pictures. I swear that I could spend a whole day just looking at (and enjoying!) the different decorations.

Same here! In fact, that's pretty much what I do during the holiday season too. I just walk around endlessly and take photos of decorations for hours and hours. Doing that for Halloween Time and the holidays gets me in the spirit more than anything else.
It was just last year that I really began paying a lot of attention to the Halloween Round-Up and realizing exactly how many Halloween-ish details are in it! That place is full of all kinds of pumpkin knick-knacks, pictures, Fall-colored flowers and plants, etc.
And you got the discount? Did you call to purchase tickets vs. online?
The pictures you posted Sherry are really neat. Can't wait Yo see it all n person.

Thank you! There are so many other things to see - even the window displays along Main Street are fun. I just tried to post the very basic things for right now (until we start the "Theme Weeks Countdown" to Halloween Time in the next month or two).
I hope that you will be able to get the party tickets for a discount before your AP is activated.
My wife and I are looking to take our 3 year old for the first time out to DLR. We have never been either and wanted to know what the weather is like around the Halloween time? We were thinking about going in the beginning of May also. What is the weather like then?

Are you planning to go in September or October for Halloween Time?
Well, this will probably be of no help, but I can honestly say that there are September days where it has been brutally hot (2 years ago it was something outrageous like 113-118 degrees in SoCal in mid-September, depending on where exactly you were), and other days where it has been in the 70's (such as last year, on September 16, when it was overcast and mild).
As for October, it can range from 70's all the way to upper 90's or very low 100's. It can be very dry and windy, or it can be rainy. October is a very weird weather month - you never really know which way it is going to lean.
May has been pretty warm (upper 80's and low 90's) for the last week or so. Early May can be like that as well, or in the pleasant upper 70's and sunny.
Oh boy, I sure hope you're wrong about that, Sherry! We've never been to MHP before, but we're planning to take our DGD there this year. The thing is, DSS (step-son), DDIL, and DGD won't arrive until late on Friday 10/26, so that date is out. And DW & I leave at noon on Halloween day to fly to Chicago for Mom's 91st BDay. So that leaves Tues 10/30 for MHP, and the 5 of us are really planning on it. So please, don't jinx it for me by putting out vibes like that, OK?
I mean, a 5 day trip
should be enough to catch a party somewhere, right?

Oops! I hope I didn't jinx you! I hope I'm wrong about that too! Even if a 10/30 party were scrapped, they could always decide to have it on Monday, 10/29. Or, instead of startiing the party on 9/28, maybe they'd shock us all and begin it on 10/1 (a Monday)? And I don't think there is any rule that says they can only have 10 parties. Why not have 11 parties, right?
I just didn't know if having parties on 2 back to back nights was feasible.
But, yes, certainly a 5-day trip should give you a party somewhere in there!
Wonderful pictures, Sherry! I could look at them all day!
I wanted to post some pictures, but for the life of me I cannot get it to work on here.

Thank you so much! We will all have some fun with the Theme Weeks photo countdown coming soon - it will be a photo-palooza, hopefully!
Do you have a Photobucket account? Usually, somewhere around each photo in a Photobucket account there is an IMG code. Generally you can just click on that and it will highlight and copy on its own. Then you can come back here, open a post and just type Ctrl V (paste), and your photo will appear.
So you should be able to!
