Originally Posted By MinnieSummer We were there on Friday night. The same weekend as last year. The difference in crowds was huge. For some reason last year the place was packed but this year it was great. The longest wait for a ride was 15 minutes. In fact my DD and her friend were able to ride several rides twice in a row without getting off. The parade this year is so much better than last years. The floats are mostly new and seem morethemed than repurposed. Even the dancers between floats are awesome. The gravediggers were really great -- especially when their shovels scraped the ground sending off sparks. I thought the music was even better than I remembered. The Fireworks were wonderful as well but I wasn't in a really great location and couldn't see alot of what was happening to the castle so I'm not going to really comment on them. The dance/party areas were a huge hit as always. I thought the way they are doing the candy stations was much better this year. They are utilizing walkways that they close off with CM's on each end to make sure no one goes in the exit side. It makes for a much better flow and doesn't effect the rest of the park traffic. The candy itself wasn't anything great -- but I did manage to snag a few Hershey Kisses. Overall, we had a wonderful time.

I hadn't planned to wear a Hallowe'en costume (but was hoping to run into Meeko) oh well. =) It sounds like it will be super fun! This is our first time going!
Originally Posted By MinnieSummer I was actually surprised at the number of people (kids and adults) that weren't in costume this year. I would say 80% of the kids were in costume and 25% of the adults had on something (costume hats, halloween t-shirts etc). I know my two had on costumes at the beginning of the night but by the end of the night the wigs, hats, wings, gloves etc were all crammed in my purse.

A co-worker had gone last year and saw and was photographed with Snow White and all of the Seven Dwarfs..I'm hoping they're around this year. We're attending on the 14th and my grandaugher has a SW costume and would be fun to get her photo with them if possible.

My girls weren't so interested in seeing the characters as they were in riding -- and getting candy of course (which pretty much all is still in the bag hanging on the kitchen door, I guess it's the getting of the candy not so much the eating of the candy that counts).
