To each their own. Boo to You, the Sanderson Sisters stage show, Trick of Treating, Halloween fireworks - I’d prefer all of those were I going in Oct.
Same with Once Upon a Christmastime Parade, Cookies, Treats & Drinks, Snow on Main Street and Christmas fireworks - and because I’m going in November I’m holding out hope for these things.
Getting on a million rides in an evening isn’t my priority, so I could care less for After Hours. To me, party events are about the theming, special experiences and entertainment.
