Thanks to a friend we heard about Mickey's Halloween Party on Tuesday night. We weren't sure about going, but it was the best experience we have ever had at Disneyland and I highly recommend going! If you are going for the candy, you will wait in really long lines but get more candy then on Halloween. But if, like us, you just want to ride the rides, you will walk on most every ride. Amazing!
The official party starts at 6 pm, but they let you in 3 hours early, so we were standing at the gate waiting to get in at 3 pm.
We wanted to ride Pirates first... it's tradition. But it is closed until Christmas. So we went to The Haunted Mansion first... probably not too smart, looking back.
It was really amazing. They had completely transformed it to a while new ride! It was all themed from The Nightmare Before Christmas. Riding in the elevator to the ride terrified Devin, and I was really worried we would be done... but no, as soon as we got off he said, "Let's Go Again!!!" This kid is made of steel!
One of the great things this year is Devin just met the 40 inch height requirement. This meant he could ride every single ride in Disneyland, except Indiana Jones.(the only problem with this is he got measured on pretty much every ride).
Here are a bunch of our monents captured through the night:
We can't leave out Devin's favorite ride, Buzz Lightyear, that we rode about 10 times over the 3 days.
Finally was the fireworks... pretty amazing. Devin was a little terrified of the Pumpkin King's big face that appeared in the sky... he had already been scared by him at The Haunted Mansion.
We stayed until 10:30 (which was 11:30 Utah time)... Devin fell asleep on my lap on the shuttle to our car from Disneyland.
It was such an amazing experience!!!
