Day 4--More Magic Kingdom Halloween pictures ;) 

More firework pictures:
In this one you can see a pumpkin on the castle in the lower right corner:

Skeleton and pumpkin in this next one (it was hard to catch everything between the fireworks and the special effects on the castle!)


And what I like to call haunted castle pics ;)

The fireworks pictures really show up better when they're bigger, if you go to my webshots album you can view them in a bigger size :).

Rather than getting stampeded in the rush to exit the park after the fireworks we made our way over to Tomorrowland for one more candy stop and the Indy Speedway


A quick stop in the Emporium for some MNSSHP merchandise and we were on our way back to POR, very tired but very happy :). The fireworks were the best I think I've ever seen and were the highlight of the trip for us! Up next, Breakfastasaurus and home :).

Day 4--Magic Kingdom Halloween pictures! 

A few minutes before the parade started these guys seranaded us. They were really good and afterwards the one on the left came up to Brendan and shook his hand :). He said "what are you supposed to be? A tourist?" which both boys thought was pretty funny lol ;). Brendan kept saying afterwards "I can't believe that dead cowboy shook my hand!"
Our spot was right after the parade turned the corner, so because of the angle and the movement factor some of the pics didn't come out as well as they might have otherwise. But these are pretty good (yes, the headless horseman is going the opposite direction--Dave took it as we were leaving the park and the 2nd parade started ;)

After the parade we hung out a bit to let the area clear a little, then made our way over to watch the Villian show and the fireworks. The Crystal Palace looked so pretty at night that I had to have a picture of it ;)
At the beginning of the fireworks Dave was messing with the settings again, so we have several pictures with that "special effects" look if ykwim . But then he got it right and these turned out great! Stay tuned for more firework pics!
