October 27, 2007 - Cruising around the Moon - A Magical All Hallows Eve

[*love*2*shop]

here is a navigator from halloween 2005, http://www.dreamsunlimitedtravel.com/cruise/photos/personal-navigator/index.htm .

Last year the DIS group did their own halloween t&t trail from DIS member cabin to cabin. I would be up for organizing this, would only take about an 45 mins or so, then we could join into the ship activities.

We were on this Cruise and We did not do the dis trick or treat..Only reason, there is NO way I could fit another thing in our suitcase so there was NO way I was fitting LOADS of candy..Bahh humbug, BUT i will say WE thought the DISNEY Trick or Treat is VERY poorly done, very BORING..BUT we had a SUPERB time and GOt to meet soo many DIS'RS and set UP LOADS of Diff meetins where you could go or not go..We also had a HUGE PARTY in the WALT SUITE that one of the disrs was in..that was fun too...

Thank you both for the welcome.

Hey there fellow Canadian!! We are just north of Toronto. Are you flying in??? We will be, not going to try driving by myself.

I cruised last halloween and it was alot of fun, first night very rough but after that it was amazing and now I am hooking on cruising.

Looking forward to chatting with you all.

Kim

 

[Kimmielee]

Kim - I'm hooked on cruising too! We took our first cruise in April and I did a 4 night then and it was WAY tooooo short. My son loved the clubs, I had time to read and relax. I can't wait for this cruise even if it is forever away!

I loved reading the live report about last year's Halloween Cruise. I'm thinking of shipping candy for our trick or treating ahead of time. Tell me, did you dress up on Halloween night?

 

[Hockeychic]

I know we didn't bring costumes specifically for halloween, by DH seems to think Halloween was on Pirates night and we did all dress up in pirate costumes which was fun. I honestly can't remember which day was which

We met alot of great people on the Halloween cruise in October 05.

I really like the jumbo tron they have on the top deck, it played alot of movies. I have a feeling DD will ditch me for the stack so I will be spending alot of time up there watching movies. This will be my first cruise without DH so I am a little nervous but I am sure it will be amazing and a little sad as DS won't be there either. But DD and I are looking forward to it.

Kim, we will be driving to Buffalo then flying from there. We really like JetBlue and have flown for as little as 190.00 Usd or 235.00 CAD$. This trip i am paying 226.00 USD, but then again with the price of fuel i expected that.

Others have flown with Southwest around 120.00-180.00 USD.

We are in North Scarborough. I work at the University of T.

Good Morning!!!!

We will be flying southwest out of Buffalo, have done it many times. I like the fact that they have the direct flights to Orlando.

DH parents live in north Scarborough, around the Victoria Park and Ellesmere area.

I was born and raised in Scarborough but live north of Newmarket now.
