The First Day

We started our first day with what has become a new tradition: Breakfast at the park.

The best corner table at the Gibson Girl.
Misha always has a cinnamon twist and a fruit parfait. I tried the pumpkin raisin muffin. Delicious. There's something quite enjoyable about sitting at a table on Main Street looking out a window and watching everyone run like mad to a ride while we have a leisurely breakfast.

The main event for the day was of course Mickey's Halloween Party. There were quite a few Captain Jacks. Lots of Mad Hatters. A few Green Army Men. Even four or five "Where's Waldo"s. But only one Carl and Ellie:
Leaving the hotel, ready for adventure.
There's something a little nerve racking about walking out of your hotel room wearing goggles. You would think they would boost your confidence, make you feel ready for what the world throws at you. Not so much. Especially when your dad can't stop laughing at you. Regardless, we forged ahead and it turned out that the costumes were a great success. Almost all of the cast members got it immediately, and when other guests figured it out, it was great to see their reactions.

While I pushed for my dad to be Davy Crockett, it didn't come to be. However, I thought their costumes were great. They were well received and met quite a few other Mouseketeers while trick-or-treating.

They look the part, don't they?
The party was great at Disneyland. It was meant to be there. Great decorations, great music, great atmosphere. Lots of fun people all running around like fools in their costumes. It was a fantastic time.

With goggles we fear no ghosts.
New High Score!
Just before midnight.
It was a long walk to the hotel at the end of the night. Not because we were tired, but because we were hauling approximately 12 pounds of candy. I think we recouped our losses from what we spent on the tickets.
Misha worked hard for that pile of candy in her adventure book.

The spoils of a great Halloween party.
It was a good day.
