Oct 29th was to be our first party but I was too sick to stay. DH & DS did follow the morning plan without a hitch.
Later that evening we arrived at MK with a cold wind a blowing and enjoyed dining at Liberty Tree Tavern, picked up our wristbands at M. Philharmagic and used FP's at HM, BTMR and PoC. I was done! Picked up SotMK cards & Mickey Pumpkin popcorn bucket and left. On my way out I was stopped by a manager who remarked on my costume, thank you I'm heading back to my room I'm not feeling well. If you feel up to it we can go to Guest Services and get you a refund.
YES PLEASE!!!!
Meanwhile DH & DS decided after one Magic Shot they didn't want to stand in line for M&G's or get anymore photos so they rode the rides and treated themselves to tricks & treats.
Oct 31st, I rolled out of bed and got dressed for the party. Since our first party was mainly for M&G's & magic shots there was no major plan but now we had to make them, the only thing I really wanted to do was meet the Beast and QoH with the Tweedles. We took the boat from WL with Capt. Mike.
Captain Mike was the same person who took me back to WL on the 29th.
We greeted our Captain asking permission to board and our request was granted. He asked me how I was feeling, much better thank you sir, and he gave us six FP's for the party!!!
THANK YOU Captain Mike!!!
After dinner at LTT (ADR 2:50)
We went to BOG (ADR 4pm) for dessert and to meet the Beast.
Our server brought out the dessert cart, we picked, he packed them in containers, DH paid him and were off to meet the Beast! It was that smooth, bing, bang done...but the Beast wasn't there we were told to come back at 5:30
FP time! We used our one remaining FP for Mine Train and the printed FP's on HM. We stopped by Memento Mori and posed for the ghostly lenticular photo. Boo!
DH went back to pick up the photos but his didn't take maybe because the decorations on his hat? So he had to wait awhile to retake it (reverse the hat) meanwhile DS & I rode Tea Cups. We all met QoH & Tweedles which was a great time, Tweedles were a bit frightened until I told them they could pet my pink pig! Then I yelled "PICTURES!" and startled everyone
It was fun! We also met the Mad Hatter and I thanked him for making my fascinator and he replied why yes, glad you wore it.
After the M&G's DH went back to Memento Mori to pick up the photos. Mine & DS looked perfect but I wasn't really happy with how DH's white rabbit ears looked in his photo and wanted him to retake it without his hat so back he went, poor poor rabbit! This time the machine broke down, IT was called and DH was asked to come back at 11pm.
Fast forward, the machine was still down at 11:30pm so he was given three frames for free!!! Woot!
This night was excellent!
We rode BTM just when the fireworks started and as we exited they shut it down until they were over. I never knew they did this.
The parade seemed short to me, HM did break down while we where on it it though it was short lived but most surprisingly we did not see a single flash from a camera!
Nice! Many have stated rides breaking down on this & that but it wasn't just at Disney. On our way to WDW we got onto the tram in Detroit but it broke down so we had to walk "the mile" also after we left WDW the airport escalator (MCO) stopped working luckily we were only three step away so.... I don't think it was just WDW.
We left during the last Hocus Pocus show, I was wiped out!
So who's going next year?
Took care of a little business before I left around 6:45pm, just wasn't feeling it. I was perfectly warm but the rest of me was strongly suggesting going back to bed
