Nothing to See Here...

[kaoden39]

Arrrggghhhh. Is anyone else having trouble lately signing into the DIS, or posting anything? I know Jessica has mentioned having trouble here and there. I keep getting stupid messages about "Database errors." I don't know if this site is having trouble with its servers or what. But this is not the first time I have had this problem.

In fact, I had just typed out a whole message in response to Michele (hi, Michele!) a while ago (about not wanting to get into details of planning trips because of the fact that they might not happen)...and then just as it looked like it was posting, the DIS database error thing popped up.

I will leave this TR for a bit and then come back to it to finish up what I was trying to post, in hopes the technical issues are resolved!

Hi, Laurie! No, you had nothing to do with any plans of mine going awry. I am reluctant to reveal my plans here because of all the bad luck I've had with things falling through! I figure I have announced certain things that were going to happen many times and they have fallen through or gone way off course. So I thought that this time I would keep my Halloween plan silent in hopes that I won't jinx it! I think I've jinxed everything by mentioning it!

Hi Sherry!!

I get those too and it happens on weekends mostly to me. It drives me up the wall.

I, too, thought of you when I heard about Jani Lane.



Remember, they are YOUR plans for December, yours yours yours! Not someone else's! Of course I mean that "yell" in the kindest, most loving way towards you.

I'm so sorry to hear this

Just a quick reminder...

Don't touch that dial...stay tuned...hunker down in a comfy chair, with a tasty beverage nearby, for I will be making a stealth mission to DLR for Halloween Time very soon, and I hope you all will still be here to read about it!

I will not give any details of when, how, who, why, etc., right at this moment - it is a secret!!!! It is a covert operation! All will be revealed in time...

I have not been to DLR since December, for my epic Evil Chair/Peppermint Cone of Death visit. Remember, too, that this will be my return to Halloween Time - it had become a yearly tradition for me and, sadly, I had to skip it last year. The ol' camera and I have some catching up to do (preferably nowhere in the vicinity of any trash cans)!

Maybe I can find a Pumpkin Cone of Death??

Suh-weet! Minus the fact that I am an impatient woman.

Oh boy! Sherry has a plan in the works! Will be anxiously awaiting details.

Jessica & Marie -

It won't be a lengthy, multi-day extravaganza this time around (well, not exactly, but sort of...which I will explain after all is revealed!), simply because I have to put most of my focus and planning on trying to pull off the big holiday trip at this point. Halloween Time has to take a bit of a 'second banana' role to the Christmas season when there is a big trip involved.

BUT, I do so miss the giant Mickey pumpkin, and I really need to get into the Halloween Round-Up and explore. So I am hoping this brief trip will result in many, many photos - you know I can get on a roll with taking them, whether the pictures come out good, bad or otherwise! I just need to start snapping away at something!

Anyway, as I said, stay tuned....Halloween TR is coming very, very soon!

Standing by!! I was excited to get an email notification that this thread was seeing some action

Can't wait to hear what days you will be going down to DL during the Halloween season.

 

[WDWJonasGirl]

Can't wait to hear about them.

 

[kaoden39]

Ooh I love a good mystery!!!

 

[mariezp]

Okay, Sherry.... saw your mobile FB post about seeing the Mickey floral, Duffy not being at his photo spot earlier and Donald entertaining the crowd. Does this mean what I think it might mean? And, that today may have been the secret Halloween trip? Very sneaky!

 

[Sherry E]

Yes, Marie! Today was the day! I am home now. I couldn't believe that the floral masked Mickey was back! That was one of the things I'd missed about the Halloween season since it was removed after 2007!

Anyway, I got as many photos as I could. I really need a few days to spread out the photo taking, take breaks, get back to photo-taking, etc. I went with Liza/funatdisney to DLR and we split up for a while to go off and take photos!

 

[kaoden39]

Oh I can hardly wait to hear about your day!!

 

[WDWJonasGirl]

I can't wait to see it when I go next weekend. Unfortuneatley, my annual pass expires next week

 

[Sherry E]

Michele, I thought of you and Jessica when I passed by the Duffy pumpkin patch photo display in DCA today! I took a couple of pictures of it, as well as the Halloween Duffy sold in the stores on Main Street (when did Duffy move over to Main Street to be sold?).

I can't wait to see it when I go next weekend. Unfortuneatley, my annual pass expires next week

Kaitlin, you'll have a blast! Everything on Main Street is totally Halloween-ified! The Halloween Round-Up is really cool.

I know what you mean - my AP expires the day before the holiday season starts! So I have to figure out if I am renewing it then or a couple of weeks later, or not at all or whatever! It's a bad feeling when the AP expires. You feel so lost without it!

 

[mariezp]

I knew it! Hope you had a great day. And, I am so glad you got to spend some time in the park. Will be looking forward to your pictures. No doubt even a quick day trip will inspire you to find a way of making sure your holiday trip starts taking shape.

Well, even while I was in the middle of all the Halloween fun, I still thought to myself, "I prefer the holiday season!" It's a different vibe - that's the only way I can explain it. Also, the decorations for the holidays are much more varied in texture and color, whereas Halloween decor always tends to stick with orange.

Nonetheless, I still love Halloween Time. And I love the cute merchandise. I had a good time, although my stupid leg started hurting me in the afternoon and interrupted my photo-taking progress. I was on a roll, but I had to finally surrender and sit down. What can I say? I was suffering for my 'art'!!!

Did you hear that premium annual passes went up to $500 a person I probably won't be heading back until the holiday season.

Hello everyone! Got back from Sherry's about an hour ago. We had a great day and the weather was perfect and to Sherry's liking. I have lots of pics, too. I hope to have them up soon on the Halloween thread.
