Mickey's Not So Scary Halloween Party

It's been a couple of years since we attended Mickey's Not So Scary so we decided to journey back to the Magic Kingdom and check it out again. We went on a Tuesday night in September so we were optimistic that it would not be crowded, and we were right. We had the best time since the weather wasn't too hot, we were able to ride all of the rides that we wanted to, including Dumbo, with a minimal wait, and got lots of yummy candy. Min dressed up as a Star Wars character and Joo was Junie B. Jones, which is her favorite book series at the moment. One of our favorite parts of the night is the ride of the Headless Horseman so we made sure not to miss that. Next up for Joo and I, Sea World's Spooktacular.

The Wizarding World of Harry Potter

The crowds have finally thinned out enough at Universal's Island of Adventure for us to explore the new Harry Potter section of the park. Both Mr. Cash and Min have read the books so they know all about the food, stores and characters featured in the "world" and rides. Joo and I are just along for the adventure. The kids enjoyed drinking the Butterbeer and riding on the Forbidden Journey. The only place we haven't been able to get into is the wand store. Both times we have gone there has been a long line that we aren't willing to wait in. In this store, you can buy unique, one of a kind wands. We'll get in there eventually.
It's a very busy time for us now, both kids have started their activities. Joo has decided to do ballet, tap and jazz dance this year with a friend from school and Min is playing lacrosse with football to follow. Not to mention, college football has started so Saturdays are spent in front of the tv. Go Bucks!!!!!!
