Dear Diary,
I can't believe it was just last week; we were being hunted by a demon, two assassins, a hunter and two vampires. Weekends before Homecoming, we had some Halloween Fun for ourselves. First, we went to Universal Studios Hollywood had some fun on their rides, did some shopping and had some Halloween Fun. We also went to Halloween Horror Nights while Jenna watched Persephone. During Halloween Horror Nights, we went through the mazes, the scare zones and tried some horror Nights-specific treats and food. We tried Churro Bites, Pizza Fries, Pulled Pork Grilled Cheese, Candy Corn Funnel Cake, and the specialty Voodoo Doughnuts.
The second weekend, we went to Legoland Califriona and did the Brick or Treat. We went on the rides, met characters, saw shows, Trick or Treated and tried the food. The characters we met were Lord Vampyre, Tiger Woman, Monster Rocker, Lego Scarecrow, Lego Witch, and Lego Mummy. The treats we tried; Pumpkin Ice Cream, Candy apples, several themed cookies, Purple Crispy treats, Crepes, and Witchy Wacky Rice Pudding. We tried Pumpkin shakes & lattes and Apple Cider.
This past weekend after the Homecoming dance, we went to Sea World San Diego/Spookatular & Howl-O-Scream. On the first day, we started Trick or Treating with our Sea World design bags before enjoying what the kid-friendly activities had planned. We ate kid-friendly Halloween treats before during the pumpkin scavenger hunt and got a prize. That night, we enjoyed adult-friendly activities while Elijah stayed with Persephone this time. We went through scare zones & houses, bought some Howl-O-Scream Merch and tried some of the Howl-O-Scream-specific treats and food. After the howl-o-scream, we headed back to our hotel. The next day, we enjoyed the aquariums and other rides before taking photos with Elmo and his friends. We ended the day at our hotel before we headed home that night.
We went to the pumpkin farm for Persephone's first pumpkin and all our pumpkins for Halloween after school yesterday. We went on a hayride and tried apple cider and pumpkin-flavoured treats before we headed home to do our pumpkin carving party and sleepover. And now, we are waiting for the minibuses to get here to pick up our last Halloween Fun for the season. Where are we going, you ask? We are heading to Disneyland for three days and two nights for Oogie Boogie Bash Halloween Party. Oh, by the way, we're leaving today, Thursday, October 28th. We got our classwork and planned to get them done at the hotel. Oh, it's time to go. The buses are here. Bye for now.
A*
I closed my journal and placed it into my park bag before getting up to help the others with the bags.
"No, sit. We'll get the car seat, stroller and bag onto the buses," Cole voiced.
"But..." I started to say.
"No, buts... sit," Jenna interrupted.
"Fine," I replied as I sat on the couch next to Kyra and Persephone.
"So, what's the plan when we get there?" Willow asked.
"Well, when we get there, we check in and explorer the hotel..." Kate answered.
"Where are we eating dinner?" Jo asked.
"We are eating at the Black Tap Craft Burgers & Shakes," Kol said as he grabbed Mine and Persephone's luggage.
"What are the room assignments?" Cordelia asked.
"We are split up in two groups like buses. Group #1 is Me, Persephone, Kyra, Willow, Klaus, Oz, Andy, Cole, Elijah, Sam, and Dean," I told them.
"And Group #2 is Me, Kate, Leo, Finn, Kol, Jeremy, Jo, Rebekah, Buffy, Cordelia, and Xander," Jenna voiced.
We continued to talk about the vacation until Elijah took Persephone from Kyra.
"Okay, everything is ready. Let's go," Elijah voiced as we got up.
We headed outside with our park bags before heading to our separate buses and sat down. I did my seatbelt as Elijah laid Persephone in her car seat and did her belts up. Willow and Oz were behind me, Kyra and Klaus were beside me, and Sam and Andy were in front of them. Cole and Elijah were in front of me, while Sam and Andy were behind Klaus and Kyra. Dean was in behind Willow and Oz.
"Okay, everyone, next stop Disneyland's Grand Californian," The hired driver said as the doors closed.
We were off to Disneyland's Grand Californian.
A Slight Time Skip Later...
We were finally at the Grand Californian. The driver stopped in front of the hotel before we got out. I grabbed the diaper bag and my park bag and unlocked a sleeping Persephone out of the car seat before picking her up and heading out of the bus while Cole got the car seat unhooked. When I got to the bottom step, Buffy reached out for me.
"Here, let me take the bags," Buffy said as she took the bags from me.
"Thank you," I replied.
"I mobile checked in," Klaus voiced.
"As did I," Finn stated.
"They'll let us know when our rooms are ready," Klaus told us as they packed the carts with luggage, bags and car seat.
"Here, let me get Persephone into her stroller," Elijah said as he took Persephone from me and got her settled in her stroller before doing the straps up.
Buffy put the diaper bag in the stroller compartment before giving me back my park bag. I put it on my back before we headed into the lobby.
When we got inside, we looked around the lobby for a bit before we got a notice that our rooms were ready. We separated and headed up to our rooms. I used my magic band to open the room before we rolled the luggage cart in.
"Wow!" Willow said as she looked around the room.
"Welcome to our home for the next three days and two nights," Kyra replied.
"Well, I'm going to change into another outfit. I have a bit of spit up from Persephone's feeding," I voiced.
"Wait, we need to do bed assignments," Elijah stated.
"Okay. Single bed in that room is Elijah's, Aurora's, Cole's and Persephone's," Klaus voiced as he pointed to one room. "In that room has two beds, Willow, Oz, Kyra, myself, and Andy." He gestured to the room. "And the sofa is a bed, so Sam and Dean." He pointed to the sofa bed.
"I'll get the playpen set up," Cole whispered as he got the playpen and got it to step up in the bedroom that was ours for our visit.
I quietly got Persephone out of the stroller before laying her in the playpen that Cole had set up. I grabbed the bags before grabbing what I had planned for dinner. I headed into the bathroom and changed into a dress before getting into my flats. I grabbed my dirty clothes and excess jewelry before walking out of the bathroom.
"What do you think?" I asked Kyra and Willow.
"You look good," Kyra said.
"Yeah, and pretty," Willow replied.
"Well, I'm going to change as well," Kyra voiced as she walked into the bathroom with her clothing bag.
"Are you going to change as well?" I asked Willow.
"No, I think I'm good," Willow answered.
I walked back into the room to see Persephone awake and drinking a bottle of formula.
"Looks like you're awake, Ms. Persephone," I voiced as I saw her.
"Yeah, she slept a good three hours," Cole stated.
"Yes, she did," I replied as I put dirty clothes into my bag but kept the jean jacket and placed it on.
I put the excess jewelry into my travel jewelry box as Persephone pushed away her bottle.
"Time for a burping," Elijah said as he picked Persephone from Cole and burped her.
After Persephone was burped, we got her settled in her stroller and made sure she had snacks and dinner ready for when we ate dinner.
"Let's go," I said as I grabbed my park bag and headed out of the room with the stroller and them following behind.
"What should we do now?" Willow asked.
"Well, let's see, why don't we get an early dinner?" Klaus suggested.
"Let's meet up with the others and head to the restaurant," Oz replied.
We headed out of the room and downstairs to find the others.
When we got downstairs, we found the others coming in from outside.
"Hey, where have you been?" I asked.
"We checked out downtown Disney and bought some Halloween Treats for after dinner," Kate said before handing two bags. "This is you guys for later."
"Thank you, you didn't have to do that," Kyra voiced.
"We wanted to, and where are you going?" Jenna questioned.
"Well, we're going to get an early dinner, but you guys can go later," Andy responded.
They talked among themselves before one of them spoke.
"I think we will have a later dinner. Have fun," Buffy voiced.
"Okay, if we don't see you until morning, have a good evening," I returned.
"Oh, before we forget, we are having for the park at 7:30 am," Kyra told them.
Cordelia and Xander groaned.
"If we want to get on rides, it's going to be a busy day tomorrow," Kyra added.
We left them and headed to Downtown Disney.
After we left the lobby, we headed to the Black Tap Craft Burgers and Shakes. We waited for them to ready tables for us before we were shown our tables. Klaus, Kyra, Andy, and Dean were at one table, while Willow, Cole, Sam, Elijah, Oz, Persephone, and I were at another. We were given menus and started deciding what we would like to get.
"Hello, my name is Daniel, and I will be your server today. Why don't we start with drinks? What can I get for you?" our server Daniel asked.
"I will like the Cookies N' Cream Supreme Shake," I ordered.
"I'll have the Brooklyn Blackout Shake," Cole told him.
"I'll have the Strawberry Shortcake Shake," Willow replied.
"I'll have the Cookie Shake," Oz ordered.
"I'll have the Cookie Shake as well," Sam responded.
"I'll have the Classic Lemonde," Elijah voiced.
"Okay, are you ready to order?" Daniel asked.
"I believe we're ready to order our appetizers," I stated.
"We'll have the Queso and Chips, the Quac and Chips and the Korean BBQ Wings," Elijah ordered.
"I'll be back with your drinks and appetizers," Daniel said before leaving the table.
"Okay, whatever you want for your entrees. Everything during this trip is on us," Elijah told Willow and Oz.
"Are you sure?" Willow asked.
"Of course," Elijah answered.
"Okay, then," Oz replied before we started looking at the entrees and sides.
Sometime later, Daniel returned with our drinks and appetizers.
"Here you go," Daniel said as he handed each of our drinks and set the appetizers on the table before asking. "Are you ready to order?"
"Yes, I am," I replied.
"Me too," Cole said as the rest of our group nodded.
"Okay, who's first?" Daniel asked.
"I'll go... I will have The All-American Burger with fries; add bacon, please," I ordered.
"I'll have The Pizza Burger with onion rings," Cole replied.
"I'll have The Texan Burger with fries," Oz responded.
"I'll have the Crispy Chicken Caesar Salad and sweet potato fries," Willow stated.
"I'll have the Baja Grilled Chicken Sandwich with Sweet potato fries," Sam told him.
"I'll have the Crispy Chicken Ceaser Salad," Elijah ordered.
"Okay, I'll put these in for you," Daniel said before leaving the table.
We got down and ate our shared appetizers while talking about tomorrow.
"So, what's the plan for when we get to the park?" Oz asked.
"Well, first we are going on Disney Railway, and then trying some Halloween Disney treats, then we're hoping to get four rides before lunch," I voiced.
A little while later, our food arrived, and we started eating while Elijah fed Persephone. We kept quiet during dinner while eating until it was time to go.
"Here's your check," Daniel said before laying the check.
Elijah paid with his card and got a discount for being a Dream Key Pass holder. We got up and headed out of the restaurant. We headed back to the hotel.
When we returned to the hotel, Cole and Klaus split off from us and headed somewhere while the rest of our group headed back to the room. When we got to the room, we gave Persephone a sink bath before feeding her a bottle and laying her down for the night. Elijah and I headed back into the room to see Cole and Klaus back with drinks and more treats.
"More treats?" I questioned.
"Yeah, we thought, we try what the hotels have to offer for treats," Cole voiced.
"So what did you get?" Kyra asked.
"Well, from the Disneyland Hotel; two different Halloween seasonal cupcakes from Coffee House. From our hotel; Halloween Pumpkin donuts, mickey mummy donuts, & four jack Skellington Cupcakes from the GCH Craftsman Grill," Cole answered.
"We also got four poison apple cookies, four Mickey Jack skellington cookies, four oogie boogie cookies, four hocus pocus cookies, four gingerbread zombie cookies..." Klaus told us. "and two Halloween cookie boxes from the GCH Holiday Cart."
"What did Kate and the others get us to try?" Willow asked.
"Four Spooky Churros from California Churro, four mummy Macarons with cookie and cream buttercream and two pumpkin cheesecake Macaroons with white chocolate pumpkin ganache from Kayla's Cakes..." Cole answered as he laid out what we got on the table.
"Two Mickey Mummy Marshmallow Pops, two Halloween Marshmallow Pops, two Minnie Cake Pops with Orange Bow..." I continued as I laid out what I had said.
"Dirt & Worms Cake Pops, Peanut Butter Rice Cereal Treats, Spider Web Rice Cereal Treats..." Elijah finished. "and Oogie Boogie Rice Cereal Treats from Marcelin's Confectionery."
"Let's eat before we do our homework," Sam voiced.
We grabbed a paper plate before cutting the treats in half to share. We took our sections before starting to eat our dessert. After eating, we headed into our rooms to change into our PJs before heading back out with our homework.
"Okay, what's the homework for English?" Sam asked.
"We have to read a chapter in the book we're reading in class and do a summary on it," Willow answered.
"We have our separate college class homework," Kyra voiced.
"I have my elective class homework and my baking planning for Thanksgiving," I brought up.
"We also have to plan the menu for Thanksgiving Mom and Caroline are coming for Thanksgiving for once," Kyra stated.
We got down and worked on our separate tasks. Two hours later, we had finished our assignments before we watched The Addams Family on Disney plus. After the movie, we brushed our teeth and headed to bed.
Time Skip
It was morning at the hotel. I woke to find Elijah holding decaffeinated tea while sitting on the side of the bed and ready for the day.
"Morning," I yawned.
"Morning," Elijah said before kissing my forehead and handing me the tea.
"Mm," I expressed as I took a sip of my tea. "God, I wish this was caffeinated."
"Here, I'll take this. Why don't you get ready?" Elijah replied before taking my tea.
I got up from the bed and grabbed today's clothes bag before heading to the bathroom. While walking to the bathroom, I saw Persephone awake and eating breakfast as Cole fed her.
"Morning," Cole said.
"Morning," I replied before knocking on the bathroom door.
"Come in," I heard Kyra's voice.
I walked in to see Willow and Kyra dressed and brushing their teeth.
"Morning," I said as I sat my today's bag down and opened it.
"Morning," Willow and Kyra replied as they looked over.
"Just let me get dressed, and we'll head down to the park," I voiced.
"Okay," Kyra returned before they spit and headed out the door.
I got out of my PJs and got into clean undergarments before I got today's outfit. I brushed my hair and teeth before putting my Pink crown Mickey Ears on my head. I grabbed my Pjs before heading out of the room and back into my room and put the Pjs away for tonight. I grabbed my Park bag and a slightly warm jacket for the night before stuffing the jacket into my bag.
"Aurora, are you ready to go?" Kyra asked as she came into the room.
"Yeah, just needed to get my park bag and a warm jacket for later," I replied as I headed out of the room with her.
"Okay, everyone ready to go?" Dean asked as Cole got Persephone situated in the stroller.
"Yes, the diaper bag is ready," Cole voiced.
"I'm assuming everyone's spelled park bag is ready?" I questioned.
"Yes," Oz responded.
"Okay, then, let's go," Willow said.
We headed out of the room with our magic bands on and headed downstairs to meet with the others.
When we got downstairs, we met up with the others and headed to the Disneyland entrance before getting for early entry. We picked up our maps before heading to our first ride and got in line. We went on the Disneyland Railway before getting off and heading off to Jolly Holiday Bakery Cafe for breakfast. We mobile ordered breakfast, and the girls and I talked while the boys got the orders.
"So, where are we going next?" Cordelia asked.
"Well, the four rides before lunch are Astro Orbiters, Buzz lightyear Spin, Star Tours and Finding Nemo Submarine ride," Kate voiced.
The boys returned with breakfast, and we started eating while Persephone ate some baby puff snacks. After eating, we headed to our next ride Astro Orbiters. We placed the stroller in baby parking before getting in line. Elijah held Persephone while we waited in line. Sometime later, we got on the ride and enjoyed it before getting off and heading to our next ride with the stroller.
"Next ride, Buzz lightyear spin. Let's make this a competition," Buffy suggested. "Winners choose where we eat for lunch."
We nodded in agreement, and the groups were decided. Our room group against theirs. We put the stroller in baby parking before getting in line. Cole was holding Persephone this time while we waited. An hour later, we were next to get on our ride vehicles. It was me against Buffy. Kyra against Kol, Kate against Cole & Persephone, Elijah against Finn, Oz against Xander, Willow against Cordelia, Sam against Jo, Dean against Jeremy, Klaus against Jenna, and Andy against Leo. Minutes later, we were off on our shooting competition.
After the ride, we met up at the stroller while Cole got Persephone situated. We tallied the numbers for our room group. The other room group did the same. Moments later, they revealed the total for each group.
"It looks like group one wins," Jenna voiced as she showed us the number for their group while Elijah showed them ours.
"So, where are we eating?" Kate asked.
"We'll answer the question after our last ride before lunch," Klaus answered as we headed to our next ride.
When we got to our next ride, the boys, Jenna, Jo, and Buffy went on Star Tours while Kyra, Kate, Rebekah, and I stayed behind with Persephone. I opened Elijah's phone and looked at places to eat to see if we were reservations for lunch or dinner.
"What are you looking at?" Rebekah asked.
"I'm seeing if we have a reservation for lunch or dinner," I answered.
"And?" Rebekah questioned.
"Looks like we have a reservation for dinner at Blue Bayou Restaurant," I told them. "I also saw a place where they have beignets. Maybe we can go get them for the fireworks show."
"That would be a good idea. I haven't had a beignet in a long time," Rebekah said.
An hour later, the others had joined us, and we were heading to our next ride while Persephone continued to sleep. When we got to the finding Nemo area, we put the stroller in the stroller parking before Elijah picked Persephone up, and we got in line. An hour and a half later, we were getting on the ride. We sat in front of the submarine windows and got ready for the ride. Moments later, we were on an aquatic Nemo adventure.
After the ride, we returned to the stroller and got Persephone settled before our room group was asked.
"Where are we eating?" Kate asked.
"Alien Pizza Planet," Kyra answered.
"Let's go eat!" Jeremy exclaimed.
We headed off to our lunch location. We weaved through the crowd and got to Alien Pizza Planet. When we got there, we mobile ordered our lunch before finding a spot to sit while the boys went to get lunch.
"So, what's the plan after lunch?" Cordelia asked as I started feeding Persephone her lunch.
"Well, we'll do a little shopping, try some more Halloween treats and get on some ride while Persephone naps," Kyra voiced.
"After that, we'll get a snack, feed Persephone, and try to get on some more rides before dinner," Kate told them.
"And after dinner, we have beignets to try and two rides to get on before the Halloween fireworks," Jenna stated before the boys returned with lunch.
"Okay, who had what?" Cole asked.
"I had a cheese pizza with garlic bread, a vampire Alien Macroon and a hot chocolate," I told him before being handed my order.
The rest of the group told the boys what they ordered and were handed their orders. We started eating while Elijah took over and finished feeding Persephone while I ate. An hour later, we were done eating. Persephone was fed and changed before laying her down to sleep in her stroller.
"Okay, let's head to our first stop," Jo stated.
We headed off to Little Green Men Store Command.
When we got there, we walked around and started to look around. I knew Xander might get some things. I spotted and picked up a Buzz lightyear onesie with a hat and found the size I wanted for my unborn baby before continuing. I noticed Xander, Oz, Jeremy, and Dean picked up alien, Woody, Buzz Lightyear, and Lightening Mcqueen ear hats before I continued to look around. Willow, Buffy, Kate, Kyra, and I picked up some pins we didn't have, while Jo picked up a starter kit and pack of pins. We also picked up some Halloween pins and some other new pins.
"I think we're done," Kate suggested.
"Let's go pay," Kyra voiced.
"Here, we'll take these," Cole stated as he took my things while Klaus took Kyra, Oz took Willow's, and Finn took Kate's.
"Head outside. We'll go pay," Finn said.
Kate kissed Finn's cheek before we headed outside with the stroller. We found a spot to sit while the boys paid for our things.
"So, what did you get?" Jo asked.
"I got some more pins. I found a buzz lightyear onesie with a hat for the baby," I answered.
"I got some more pins to add to the collection you guys got me on your vacation," Willow told us.
A little while later, the boys joined us before we headed off to our next shopping stop.
We weaved through the crowds before stopping at the emporium and heading in. We separated and looked around. I spotted Willow by the Mickey Ears looking at them while I looked at the Halloween Nightmare before Christmas Ears to match my costume and found the right ones. I grabbed it before continuing to shop. I picked up a Halloween toddler-size t-shirt for Persephone for her to grow into before finding a matching shirt for myself for after pregnancy. Kyra picked up a Stitch T-shirt and a stitch plaid shirt before she walked over to me and joined me.
"Look at these," Kyra voiced as we spotted some cute Disney shirts for Persephone.
"I'll go for the pink," I voiced as I looked for the size and found it before picking it up.
I noticed Xander holding a hat saying, 'Insert snacks here.' I rolled my eyes before moving on. I saw Kate pick up a classic Fantasia Mickey stuffie while I looked at the shirts before spotting two couples' shirts. I picked up three 'the muscle' shirts for Cole, Sam, and Elijah in their sizes and one 'the muse' shirt for me. While Kyra picked up Monsters Inc. versions of the shirts for her and her mates.
"I think I'm done shopping," I told Kyra.
"Me too," Kyra replied.
Willow came over with a few things and a Mickey Ears for herself.
"Let us pay for these," Elijah said as he came over with a couple of Home goods.
The boys took our things before we headed out of the store. We found a spot to sit while we listened to the live music passing by. Sometime later, the boys joined us with the bags while Oz handed Willow her Mickey Ears before she put them on.
"Where to next?" Oz asked.
"Last food/shopping stop is Candy Palace and Candy Kitchen," Kol answered as we started walking with the stroller.
When we got to the store, we walked in and separated before looking around. We picked up a bunch of goodies (Seasonal or otherwise) before buying a couple of things for Giles (A couple of teas and two new mugs). We headed out of the store while the boys paid without realizing they were picking out some more goodies from the front case. We found a spot to sit and sat down while Persephone slept. The boys joined us a little while later with goodies.
"Here," Cole said as he handed me a seasonal cupcake.
I took a bite and moaned in delight while the others ate their seasonal treat before heading back toward Tomorrowland.
When we got to the Tomorrowland area, the boys, Buffy, Jo, Cordelia, Willow, and Jenna went on the Space Mountain ride. While Kate, Kyra, Rebekah, and I ate and chatted at the Galatic Grill.
"So, what's the plan?" Kate asked.
"Well..." I voiced as I checked my cellphone time. "Persephone will be awakening soon. She'll need a diaper change and feeding. We can't go on Autopia, and neither can she."
"So..." Kyra started to say.
"We'll get a treat here for Halloween while they go on Autopia before we head off to the rides that Persephone can go on," I told them.
Sometime later, I got a text from Cole saying...
We are heading to Autotopia now. Where are we meeting you?- Cole
We are at the Galatic Grill. I texted him back.
"Well, we can order what we would like. The boys, Jenna, Willow, Cordelia, and Buffy are heading to Autotopia," I stated as I put my phone away before we heard Persephone crying awake. "Well, she needs a diaper change." I grabbed the stroller and headed for the nearest bathroom.
When I got to the bathroom, I changed her diaper before I headed back to the restaurant. When I got there, Kyra had warmed up a bottle of formula before taking Persephone from me.
"I should get some practice in doing this," Kyra told me as she fed Persephone.
"I mobile ordered two Oktoberfest-inspired burgers. We could split them. I also ordered four Darth by chocolate and Blood Orange Slushes," Rebekah voiced.
"I'll go with you to get them," Kate said as she and Rebekah got up.
They headed off to the order while Persephone had her after-nap bottle.
"So, what's the plan after this?" Kyra asked me.
"Well..." I said as I pulled out my phone and looked at the plan. "We have fast passes for Alice in Wonderland and It's a Small World." I took a breath before continuing. "While trying to get on Mad Tea Party, Dumbo, Casey Jr. Circus Train, and Storybook Land Canal Boats."
"So, in what order?" Kyra questioned.
"Alice in Wonderland, then Mad Tea Party, Storybook Land Canal Boats, It's a Small World, Dumbo..." I answered. "And finally, Casey Jr. Circus Train."
Kate and Rebekah returned with food and drinks as Kyra burped Persephone before getting her situated back in her stroller. I gave her some sweet potato baby puffs to eat as Kate and Rebekah halved the burgers in half before giving us half. Rebekah gave us the drinks and our desserts.
"I swear being pregnant has made me more hungry than ever," Kate voiced.
"I know the feeling," I returned before taking a bite of the burger.
I chewed and swallowed before continuing to speak.
"I'm hungry for things I would normally never eat," I added.
We continued to talk and eat while waiting for the others to join us. Thirty minutes later, the others returned while we threw out our garbage.
"All done?" Jenna questioned.
"We ate our snacks and are ready to get to the next stop," Rebekah voiced.
"Persephone has been changed and fed. She's ready to have some fun," I stated as Persephone squealed.
We headed off to our first ride of the afternoon.
As we headed to the next stop, we saw photographers taking pictures in front of the castle and got in. Sometime later, it was our turn for photos. We got them taken before we headed to Alice in Wonderland. When we got to the ride, we put the stroller in the stroller parking before Cole got Persephone out. We tapped our magic bands to the Fastpass button before it glowed green and went on it. We walked through the cue before stopping and waiting for our turn to get on the ride. Sometime later, we were on the ride and off to Wonderland.
After the ride, we took pictures in a copy of the Mad Tea Party Cups ride before heading to the ride location and getting in line. Elijah stayed with Persephone this time while the rest of us got on. Kate, Kyra, Rebekah and I shared a cup while the others grouped up. We listened to the Halloween soundtrack as we slowly spun around in the cups before the ride ended. After the ride, we met up with Elijah and Persephone and headed to our next ride. We weaved the crowd before heading to Storybook Land Canal Boats and placed our stroller in the park. We got in line and waited for our turns to get on the boats. Sometime later, it was our turn to get on the vessels, but moments later, we were off into the world of Stories.
After the ride, we headed for Its small world for our FastPass time and placed the stroller in the stroller parking before getting in line. Elijah had Persephone in his arms as we waited in line. An hour later, we were in front of the line. Moments later, the ride vehicle appeared before the door opened. Elijah, Cole, Sam and I got in the first row with Persephone while Kyra, Klaus, Andy, Dean, and Jenna were behind us. Willow, Xander, Oz, Cordelia, Kol and Buffy were behind them, while Kate, Finn, Leo, Jeremy, Jo and Rebekah were behind them. Seconds later, we were off into the world of Small World.
After Small World, we got on Dumbo for a turn before heading to Casey Jr. Circus Train Ride and placed the stroller in stroller parking. Then we got in line and waited. Sam held Persephone this time while we waited in line. We waited for about an hour before we were able to get on the ride. Sam, Persephone and I were behind the lion cage car while Elijah and Cole were in the cage before the ride started, and we were off on a train ride.
After the ride, it was 5:40 pm, and it was time for us to head to our dinner reservation location.
"Where are we eating dinner?" Willow asked.
"We have a reservation at Blue Bayou Restaurant," Finn answered.
"I'm hungry," Xander moaned.
"We'll be there soon," Klaus voiced.
We continued our way to the restaurant.
When we got to the restaurant, we checked in and waited until our tables were ready. Twenty minutes later, we were shown our tables. Sam helped me put Persephone into a highchair before we started looking at the menu.
"Hello, my name is Danielle, and I will be your server. Might we start you off with some drinks?" our server Danielle said.
"I'll have the Louisiana Lemonade in the souvenir cup," I ordered.
"I'll have the same," Cole ordered.
"Me as well," Sam answered.
"I'll have the Mint Julep," Elijah voiced.
"Okay, I'll be back with your drinks," Danielle told us before leaving.
"I'll feed Persephone," Sam said as he turned his chair towards the high chair.
I slightly warmed up the baby food before handing the bowl and spoon to Sam before I continued to look at the menu. I found what I wanted to eat as our server Danielle came back with our drinks.
"Here you go," Danielle said as she gave us our drinks before asking. "Are you ready to order food?"
"I am," I replied.
"Me too," Cole said as Elijah nodded.
"I think I am," Sam responded.
"Okay, who's first?" Danielle asked.
"I'll go... I will have the Flat Iron Steak but without the Charred Onion-Bourbon Demi," I ordered.
"I'll have the Monte Cristo Sandwich," Cole ordered.
"I will have the Jambalaya," Elijah responded.
"I'll have the Chicken & Kale Rice," Sam told her.
"Okay, I'll go put your order in. Enjoy your drinks," Danielle returned before leaving.
I took a sip of my drink as Sam continued feeding Persephone.
"So, what are we doing after this?" Sam asked.
"Well, we are going try to get to Mint Julep Bar. I heard they had beignets. After that, we have Pirates in the Caribbean ride and Indiana Jones Ride before the Halloween fireworks at 9:30. Then, we head back to the hotel for bed," I answered.
After we talked about what will happen after dinner, we went to talk about tomorrow's plans while we waited for our dinner. A little while later, our food arrived, and we started eating while continuing to talk about the Halloween Party. Persephone was in her stroller now, playing with her stroller-attached toy.
A Slight Time Skip later...
We were done with dinner, and our food was paid for. We placed our souvenir cups into bags before we placed them into our spelled park bags. We left the restaurant and headed to Mint Julep bar before mobile ordering our beignets and drinks. The girls found a spot to sit while I headed off to find a washroom to change Persephone's diaper. After I found a nearby restroom, I changed Persephone's diaper and sanitized my hands. I laid her back into the stroller and headed out of the bathroom to find the others.
"Aurora, there you are. Where did you go?" Cole asked.
"I changed Persephone's diaper," I answered as I sat down before laying her blanket on Persephone and giving her soother.
Cole reached over and muttered the no-noise spell. So, we would hear her if she cried, but she wouldn't hear the fireworks or other noises while she slept.
"Here," Elijah said as he set my drink down before holding out a bag.
I stuck my hand in and grabbed a seasonal beignet before taking a bite and moaning in delight.
"This is really good," I voiced before sipping my drink.
We all started walking and eating as we headed for our first ride of the night.
When we got to our first ride of the night, we put the stroller in the parking area before Sam picked up a sleeping Persephone, and we got in line. After a while, we were at the front and were waiting for our ride vehicle. A couple of minutes later, it was our turn to get on the ride. Moments later, we were off into the world of Pirates.
After the ride, the boys, Buffy, Cordelia, and Jenna got in line for the Indiana Jones ride. While Kate, Kyra, Rebekah, and I headed to find something warm to drink and something to eat before finding a spot to hold until the fireworks. We mobile ordered for Jolly Holiday Bakery. We got Hot Chocolate and some Halloween and non-Halloween goodies to eat while we waited for the fireworks.
"So, what's the plan for after the fireworks?" Rebekah asked.
"Well, after the fireworks, we head back to the hotel, shower and sleep," Kyra answered.
"So, what are your costumes for the party tomorrow?" Kate asked.
"My theme is Nightmare before Christmas," I answered.
"My character is Daisy duck," Kate voiced.
"My character is Cinderella," Rebekah stated.
"And my character is Rapunzel," Kyra replied.
"What about Persephone?" Rebekah questioned as we looked down at the sleeping Persephone in the stroller.
"Well, Persephone will be in normal Halloween clothes, but Halloween, we have something planned," I answered.
We continued to talk about tomorrow's Halloween bash until the rest of our group joined us. I checked my phone before seeing it was almost time for the fireworks to begin. Moments later, we started watching the fireworks Halloween show.
After the show, we headed back to our rooms. Willow, Kyra and I did rock, paper, and scissors for the first shower. I won and headed to the shower with my Pjs while Elijah changed Persephone's diaper, put her in a clean sleeper and fed her a bottle. Twenty minutes later, it was Willow's turn for the shower.
"Have fun," I voiced as I pulled my Pjs top on.
Willow stepped into the shower as I blow-dried my hair before brushing my teeth and heading out of the room with my dirty clothes.
After I left the bathroom, I headed to the room to see Persephone asleep in the playpen before I placed my dirty clothes into my laundry bag. I put my jewelry into my spelled jewelry box and the other accessories into the spelled accessories container.
"I put our cellphones on the chargers," Cole whispered.
"Thank you," I replied as I brushed my hair before braiding it and getting into bed.
As soon as my head hit the pillow, I fell into a deep sleep.
