for the party. Thanks! Getting excited about our trip! 
THANK YOU!!! to fairykin for keeping this monumental list up to date! 
They just posted the hours for Tuesday, October 27th (our last night in the parks) and DL is closing at 6 p.m. I'm kind of bummed about this, but we have such a long trip this time that we'll have other nights to enjoy the longer hours during the week before. Does anyone know why they are closing DL early on that night....A private party maybe?
I think you are looking at DCA's hours. It is closing at 6 p.m. on weekdays but DL is listed as closing at 8 or 9 p.m. on all other October weekdays. The night that I mentioned is the only one where it's closing at 6 p.m. and usually when that happens, it's because of a private party or something similar. Even in the off-season, DL never closes that early on a weekday without an additional reason. And looking at the longer hours this year for October (9-9 on many weekdays), I don't think October can be considered off-season any longer due to the crowd expectations and longer hours scheduled.It might just be a Tuesday thing in the off season. We're going a couple of weeks before you and our Tuesday (the 13th) has DL closing at 6pm also

Oh, you're right - I had scrolled down too far when looking at the calendar - DL is open until 9pm on the 13th. It closing early for you on the 27th ...so close to Halloween. Must be some special event in relation to it.
Looking at the Anaheim Convention Center, they're hosting a Solar Power International 2009 convention ...but you wouldn't think they'd be the type to rent DL for 3hrs
How great that you will get to go to DLR for Halloween time on your first trip! You will love it and your DS will be so surprised.
What day are you planning on attending the party? We will be going on Wed. the 21st. We've also done the one at WDW and this will be our first one at DLR.
Someone throw me a pity party. I broke my foot this morning.
The doctor said that the cast should be gone until I go on my trip, he's estimating it will stay on for four weeks. So I won't be denied boarding the plane. At least this is what the airline told me when I called them an hour ago.
Still walking around will be out, and I will most likely still have to be using crutches when I am on my feet. So looks like I will be renting a scooter while at the parks.
That still leaves the problem how to get to Anaheim. Of course that had to happen the year we fly into LAX.
We had planned on a towncar service to get back to the airport anyway, but wanted to go to Anaheim using Supershuttle. I went with them once and remember I found it really hard to get in the van even without crutches. Does someone have experiences using them with a handicapped person? My travel mate doesn't drive unfortunately. I'm kind of tempted to ruin the budget even more and get the towncar service both ways. Seems like the easiest option.
Vala -
That totally sucks! I am so sorry to hear that you broke your foot. I don't have much experience with Super Shuttle, but I do remember their vans being something that you did have a high step into. Hope you are feeling better soon!

who is celebrating a birthday that Friday!
