Here's one from 10/20. We were on the inside of the Hub directly facing the bridge to Liberty Square.
Great photo! We just got back from the party this evening and had a great time. We concentrated on the parade and fireworks and had a nice relaxing time
My DD LOVED the headless horseman, but I was not prepared and did not get a picture, so she will love to see this. She actuall ran after it - we were right in front of the castle in the circle area.
I absolutely LOVED the parade and fireworks. I think they are the best fireworks yet - maybe it was the music. My favorite part of the parade was the Haunted Mansion gravediggers with their shovels.
We got lucky with a spot to watch the parade - we were behind some folks sitting down, and I left DD to run into the Emporium which was directly behind us, and when I came out they had left and she was sitting.
We sat down in the table (smoking area) by the walkway to Tomorrowland to watch the fireworks. There was a little low obstruction from a couple trees, but otherwise it was a great spot. DD and I sat and chatted and caught up on the day!
We got our 3rd annual photo taken, and DD was then ready to come home - she considered staying for the 2nd parade, but changed her mind.
The sign said it was Sold Out tonight, but I did not feel it was overly crowded. Mind you we didn't go back to the rides, didn't get there until 7:30, and had our photo taken at 9:45 - so we might have been staying away from the crowds!
I took more video than still pics tonight, but I will see what I have, and hopefully post some later.
We bought Nightmare Before XMAS tonight, so DD watched it on the way home. I really like the music - passed the time on the drive home nicely!
I made one faux paus this evening though - every other party I've gone to I've gone early before the actual start time, and therefore with the AP didn't have to pay parking.... tonight I showed my AP and he said I still have to charge you.... YIKES - I had NO CASH - and they only take cash - he was a sweetie and let me through, or I would have been turning around and finding an ATM! NOTE TO SELF - either go early or be prepared to pay for parking!
Now I have to get ready for a Halloween party tomorrow evening for 5 of the neighborhood kids - I haven't even started, except some cleaning!
