I really love halloween. I mean, I love it so much I take every opportunity to celebrate it during the month of October I can. I visited Canada’s Wonderland for Halloween Haunt on October 2nd and it was so much fun. See my post on the Canada’s Wonderland blog here or scroll away.

My sister and I have been dressing up for halloween together our whole lives so when I was invited to #CWhaunt there was no one else I’d rather go with. We  headed to the park just in time for nightfall. You’re not realllllly supposed to go in costume but we put on zombie faces so enhance the night.

We started in the VIP Pre-Haunt lounge making our plan for the night.  We had Fright Lane passes which outlined all the haunted houses and allowed us to skip the line. The Skeleton Key is for getting into secret rooms at the haunted houses for extra scares.

The eerie sounds of scary music had us a bit spooked so we decided to ride the coasters to get our jitters out. First up, Levithan. Having a Fast Pass made our night spoooooktacular as we were able to zip past lines and jump on the rides right away.  We sat down beside two young men who looked a *little* creeped by our makeup choices. After we screamed our heads off flying through the night sky, one of the guys said “your makeup is a bit messed up”. My sister turned to him ‘that’s because I’m dead!” We laughed loud and hilariously like The Joker and headed to the next ride.

I was really impressed with the performances we caught on the stage. The scary looking man below was whirling around this box with flames inside. It was amazing. next up,  4 skeletons did am impressive trampoline act jumping to and from the platform behind them. It was quite funny! 

My favourite made of the night was Cornstalkers. Being in a cornfield is creepy, never mind monsters and dead people jumping out at you in the night with scary music and horror sounds. Jenie and I made friends with a monster in the Skeleton Key room (who was a total babe). This was the scariest one.

I HIGHLY recommend visiting Halloween Haunt at Canada’s Wonderland. It was the first time for both of us and we had so much fun. it was the perfect scare to get us in the halloween spirit. I’m hoping to go back before All hallows Eve!

Went for a nice kayak this morning.  It was a wee bit chilly but SO WORTH IT.

Did a Periscope for about 20 minutes with a few hundred people. Take a peek here!

New journal.

New deck.

Hope you and your friends/family had a great weekend. Happy thanksgiving! ?????

I took Carynn to Woodbine for sister date. She’d never been and I thought betting on the ponies would be a fun afternoon and it WAS.She picked the winning horse for 2 races in a row and cashed in both times.

We had lunch at Favourites on the second floor, traditional buffet with a vast array of different foods.

Both of us won a couple dollars on the first race we bet on. WOOT. Love these glasses, latest pair from polette.com in France.

Then Carynn killed it on the next race and won $72.65. Taking someone to the races for their first time THEN having them win is the most fun. Doesn’t matter how much you win, leaving home w/ extra cash in your pocket is awesome!

I love people watching, especially mid-race when they’re cheering and screaming. It’s exciting! Over the past couple months I’ve noticed more and more young peeps there, millennials. Would be a great spot for a date!

For more information about upcoming events at Woodbine visit this handy schedule. I’ll be back next Sunday for the Pattison International.

Heading up to the cottage for the rest of the weekend to celebrate thanksgiving.

Wishing you a great weekend! ☀️????
