Y4 D135

I think yesterday might have been in fact one of the greatest days of my life. I could have died last night and frankly died a happy man. To pick up from yesterday, we got into town around 5:30, stopped at Denny's as we do and the fun started there. We got over to the hotel about 6:30 just to ask if we could leave a couple bags and park the car in the lot. The guy behind the counter looked up my account and typed a couple things and was like 'you know what, I have your room ready. You're a valued customer, let me just check you in now.' Eight hours earlier than check in normally is. Nice. That was a perfect way to start this trip. That gave us time to relax a little, unpack, etc. We headed over to the park around 8 and went into DCA for our princess breakfast. INCREDIBLE. Two of the people with us have never done the breakfast and watching them was the highlight of my day. We then walked around DCA, rode rides, wandered.

Around 1 we headed back to the hotel and everyone slept for a bit. We started getting into our costumes around 3:30. Everyone LOOKED AMAZING. The looks on people's faces when Esmerelda, Snow White, Rapunzel, and Alice all stepped out of the elevators was wonderful.

We met two of our friends downstairs and the six of us drove over to the park. From the minute we hit the parking lot we were celebrities. Not to mention ALL the other people already in costume. Technically the Halloween party didn't start until , but they began handing out wristbands at 4. We were able to go in at 4 with our costumes on. To our little lineup we added Jessica Rabbit and Mr Smead.

I can't count the number of times I/we had our picture taken last night. I know I am all over the internet this morning. Don't care. At 7 the lights went down and the party began. Trick or treat lines. Villains. Special Lighting. Special music. Special everything. My friend and I every few minutes had to look at each other and go 'We're in Disneyland. Trick or Treating. For Halloween. IN COSTUME'. I think we rode more rides last night because of all the Halloween theme then in our last visit. I even forego pin trading. Didn't care. I was having so much fun. You could FEEL it in the air. It was incredible.

It was a cult last night that's for sure. We were ALL brain washed. And we LOVED it. We were happier than clams in mud. We were all together. I know I saw at least one other person with tears in their eyes last night when they just looked around. We had small children waving at us. Adults wanting their picture with us. Cast members who are my friends LOVED my outfit. I had three different ones go nuts when they recognized me. And for the record the only way they knew it was me was by my voice. We were there until midnight and decided to WALK the mile down the street to our hotel. Why? Because we were still so high on happiness we didn't car. The honks and waves we got walking back made us smile even more.

We hit the hotel around 12:30am and the desk clerk who was the same guy from the morning almost had a heart attack when HE saw us. He gave us all water and told us how incredible we looked.

Best. Day. Ever.

Of course someone TRIED to ruin it with texts about their stupid show tonight. Blaming me for lack of people checked in. Blaming me for cue sheets not being ready. Guess what? Not tonight baby. I am too fucking happy right now. De-lete.

Oh and guess what? Time to go back...
