Most likely not. We went to MVMCP a year or two ago and while it was nice, felt it was kind of expensive for what it was. We're not all that in to watching parades and character meetings, so it really was just paying $50+ per person to spend 3 hours at MK for us. I would LOVE to see Hallowishes and we're planning on watching that from the Polynesian - hopefully they'll pipe in the music!
Can't wait to take my twin boys on their first trip to Walt Disney World! Planning on heading there sometime Feb-May 2014!

This will be our first year going around Halloween. We're very excited to be participating in all of the festivities!
Watching Hallowishes from your resort will be great! I can't wait to see that, as well!

:lol: While Polynesian is "my resort", unfortunately we aren't staying there this time. We're just going to visit to eat, watch the Electrical Water Pageant, and probably Hallowishes.

Nah, we just had to pick our dates based on my school breaks. We've been browsing menus online and nothing's jumped out at either one of us. That probably will change when we're walking by and smelling the food though. :lol:

Take pictures if you think about it. I'm curious what you end up thinking about the prices and offerings.

I had looked at a few blog posts about past years. A few things looked tasty, but the prices seem high for the little tiny snacks. I think it would be a good way to use snacks on the Dining Plan though :D

Holy moly. I had no idea it was that expensive. :lol:
Mom and I agree that we are just going to stick with our chocolate covered frozen bananas and pretzels.

Don't judge by me, I'm only going by the photos and prices I've seen...plus I'm cheap :lol:

Yes, that's a big part of my reasoning too - the prices I've seen are very high for the amount of food you get. I hate to think about how much it would cost per person to get a meal's worth of food. Another problem is that my husband and I have wildly different tastes in food (opposites attract :lol: ), so we'd either have to split up or watch each other eat and spend more time going around to satisfy us both than just getting a regular meal we could agree on. Plus I'm picky about a few common ingredients (lettuce and onions) and since I get the impression that the items are more "grab and go" than prepared to order, that limits a lot of what I would get.
