I'm hoping for relatively light crowds, as [I think] there are no events this weekend. All input appreciated!

This time of year is the best time for DL IMO so have a good time!

Originally Posted By LuLu Halloweentime is a lot of fun, but pretty crowded. The CHOC Walk is October 17 so DL will open at 9am instead of 8. This event will bring a few more people to the resort as well. Mickey's Halloween party is Friday night in DL, so that park will close early to regular guests (unless you buy a ticket to the party). Enjoy your visit! Lots of LPers will be in the parks that weekend too
Originally Posted By irishfan I actually stayed at the Annabella just last week, I had a mission suite. No complaints really, the suite was large and very clean. I walked to the parks from the hotel and it really wasn't far at all.
Originally Posted By disneyjen88 Thanks guys. I didn't know the CHOC walk was happening that Sunday. I'm actually going to see the Kings game at the Staples Centre Friday night because they're playing the Canucks (my home team) - so I'll miss the party On that note, if anyone has any information on transportation to/from the Staples Centre from the DLR, it would be much appreciated. We won't be with rental car on this trip. Thanks!
