Halloween at DL

[dizneedoll]

Yay! I bought our tickets for the Oct 19th Party! My DS4 is going as Spiderman and I'm going as Alice. My costume is on the way but shipping has been a tad slow, I'm really impatient for it to get here. So, who else is dressing up? What costumes are you all wearing? Share all your costume details!

I'm so in the Halloween spirit now!

Thanks to all who have shared photos..loving all of them!

Okay so I am planning my meals to help pass the time and I am not sure where I want to go. I already have two PS for breakfast at CC. I have to have some gluten free mickey waffles! Are all of the buffets character meals? I have been to Goofys Kitchen and absolutely loved it! (thanks to Sherry's suggestion) but I am a super shy and therefore don't want the character interaction. Last time I went I was with my family and the kids got all of the attention, this time I am solo. Any casual dining suggestions?

I'm going as the Queen of Hearts and my sister is going to be Alice. My mom is sewing my costume as I have no talent in that area, and she is almost done. It looks amazing...she even got the yellow and black diagonal pieces in the middle done. AMAZING! Yay to moms.

Question...when is the Toon Town Morning Madness? I can't find it anywhere on DL.com??

 

[mom4princesses]

My pumpkin muffins are almost done and my house smells soooo good. I can't wait to try them and my girls are excited. Had to have a little Disney today because I can't wait to get there.

 

[mom4princesses]

Oh my goodness the muffins are wonderful. I love when Disney gives us recipes. 20 more days.......packing for the 3 little ones is done, have a few shirts packed for the rest of us, girls got a bunch of glow sticks/wands/necklaces for their birthday and so Im almost there.

I believe it is 1 hour prior to Toontown's opening time.

Here is all I could find on DL.com (http://disneyland.disney.go.com/buy/extra-benefits/):

To enter Mickey's Toontown Morning Madness, each Guest must have a valid 2-Day or greater Disneyland Resort Park Hopper souvenir ticket and one Mickey's Toontown Morning Madness voucher from the Walt Disney Travel Company. Entitlement available for one morning throughout the length of your ticket on Monday, Wednesday, Friday or Saturday. Days and times of operation and all other elements including but not limited to operation of attractions, entertainment, stores and restaurants, and appearance of Characters may vary and are subject to change without notice. Subject to capacity and other restrictions.

I had all sorts of fun ideas of costumes to make, but I'm going to be reasonable and wear a Belle costume my mom made me probably in 1992. I wish Mom would just decide who she wanted to be, since I might have to make her costume. (That's only fair.)

Hope your Alice costume arrives soon!

Tricia - I'm so glad to hear that Goofy's Kitchen went well for your family and that it was a hit!!

Yes, all the breakfast buffets - small and large - are character meals. And your question really got me thinking about how few options there are for sit-down breakfasts at table service restaurants in DL or DCA or the hotels. Really, other than the character meals, as far as Disney-specific table service breakfasts you've only got Carnation Cafe or Steakhouse 55 in the DLH. Otherwise, everything is counter service or it's a character meal!!

The other table service breakfasts/non-character meal options are the Downtown Disney restaurants - Rainforest Cafe serves a decent breakfast (non-buffet) and it is much less crowded at breakfast time than later in the day. Also, LaBrea Bakery serves breakfast, and I think Jazz Kitchen serves breakfast too (I could be wrong on that). House of Blues has something as well.

As far as breakfast at any of the counter service places goes, River Belle Terrace in DL is always a hit. White Water Snacks in the GCH is popular. Pacific Wharf Cafe in DCA serves breakfast bread bowls.

GREAT WORK!

Looks like a lot of fun. Will you be spending much time at DCA? Looks like only WOC there....

I like to put when Magic Morning is too. Will you be staying at one of the Disney hotels?

I would see WoC earlier and F! earlier, that way if something happens you will have a second chance.

We're on the same flights--different weeks though!!! You must be going jet blue?! Love your schedule!

 

[iKristin]

Yeah we're gonna spend all of Tuesday at DCA before the TOTP, but usually we only go over there for a few rides and come back. No Magic Morning cause we're pass holders and we're staying at the Park Vue Inn

 

[iKristin]

HAHA cool! Yeah it's Jetblue, that'd be cool if it was the same flights same days hehe. I wear my Mickey ears on the flight so everyone will know where I'm going hehe

We're going the 19th as well! (Don't tell, but I'm skipping two of my law school classes so I can get in early!) We're going Peter Pan themed, so if you see Peter, Wendy, Capt Hook, an insanely tall Smee, Tinkerbell, maybe a Tiger Lily, and possible some Alice people acting as though we were 6, that would be us!

I'm going to be Wendy, and have the fabric for my dress, just no set pattern yet. I've found some good free ones online, but they seem like a bit of a hassle to put together because they're not totally perfect. I'm debating free hassle versus a $6 one online (including the shipping!). Right now, I'm leaning toward just paying the $6 and having the pattern be almost perfect.

I LIKE altering patterns and I still say pay the $6. Your time is valuable and so is your fabric.
