Do you need to attend two parties to see and do everything related to the party (not including rides)? We plan to arrive at the park around 4:00 ish and stay until the end.

thanks

We have attended twice.
The first time we did everything we wanted to do in one go, but we didn't do any character meet and greets (didn't wait in line for anybody, just met whoever we found while strolling around collecting candy and having fun).

We did the parade, fireworks, trick or treat trails (some, not all), and rode a bunch of things and had a lot of fun.

If you are set on meeting every single character, riding every ride, doing every trail, etc, you might need the two days. Otherwise I'd stick with just one and just have fun.

The second time we did the party we arrived very late due car trouble on the way we missed the fireworks and parade, I was sooo sad!
So this time we are getting in the day before

We are also running the family Halloween 5K through AK the next morning, so that should be a blast.

Another food question: I justed book Mickey's BBQ, been debating about this because it is 2 meal tickets.

So I a wondering how is the food? I know the kids will love the show but curious about everything else.

My favorite meal when I go to the World for sure! Food is very good and the entertainment is great! Ribs, chicken are both very tasty!

My husband and I, will be taking our daughter's boyfriend to DW to visit her while she is a CP. I really thought I was the only one so obsessed as to be planning so early. I am as excited to go to DW as I was my first trip DL in Anaheim. I grew up with DL, at least once a year, but this is my first trip to DW. I feel like a child!

happy father's day to all

i know that weather is a fickle element in all vacations and i don't expect anybody to be able to correctly forecast the middle of Oct weather (specially in the middle of June), but i am curious as to what the average high and low for the week of
Oct18 - 26. Everything i have read says high's of 85; is that correct. Just trying to figure out if I need a shopping trip to find some cute tank's.
