Any special stuff to know going that time of year? Are the parks more or less crowded than usual? Is it rainy? Is it hot? Is there enough Halloween stuff on display in the parks that your kids don't feel robbed if they don't get tickets for Mickey's Not So Scary Halloween Party? Happy to have the whole lowdown!

There are a lot more countries that come in and you can try new foods. the wines are wonderful and you also can try different beers(not a beer person so can't tell you much about them). The also have extra programs that you can do that cost and you have to sigh up.(limited space)I would diffently take at least two days for this event, it is well worth it.
