I also need to work in when we're gonna do Haunt, and IF I'm gonna do the CHOC Walk, so I won't be definite on this event til the weekend.

Originally Posted By melekalikimaka We really want to see Fantasmic and the fireworks while we're there, so we're not sure which night will work best for us.

Are the crowds really that much bigger on Saturday night than on Friday night?

Originally Posted By melekalikimaka Oops, I must have edited too much out of my question. I was wondering if the Fantasmic and fireworks crowds are really that much different on Fri or Sat. I figured that the Halloween tickets would sell out. I'm just trying to decide which night to stay in DL and which to do the Halloween thing.

I'm wondering too.

Funny that LP's page adds "and delicious food" to what Lisann clipped from Disney's page, above. I guess I won't count on food.

I'm feeling stifled Actually DD will be disappointed if she can't wear her "Marilyn" outfit, but I'm doubting they truly wouldn't let her in, in that???
