Halloween Aloha!


Happy Halloween, everyone!

We're not spending Halloween in Edmonton this year. No, today we're at the big annual Halloween street festival in the town of Lahaina on the island of Maui!

That's a long way to go for a party, isn't it? So to justify the airfare, we're going to stay in Hawaii for a few more weeks before heading home.






Editorial Note from Debra She Who Seeks --
I'll be back to regular blogging at the beginning of December, but I have it on good authority that my blog will host a Guest Post right before American Thanksgiving in November. A free book giveaway is also rumoured to be involved! So keep your eyes peeled for that!

Editorial Note from Her Royal Highness the Cat --
NO, the Guest Post is NOT going to be written by ME. My shiftless human is NOT going to SUCK ME IN AGAIN to do her WORK for her while she's LAZING ABOUT on holiday! Believe it or not, she's found some OTHER poor sap to fall for that old con this time *shakes head sadly.* People! Will they NEVER learn?

Harry Hamid said...

That is fantastic!

Not the guest post, although I'm sure that will be fine, too. No, I mean the long break. That is wonderful and I hope it's a relaxing and memorable time.

Ok - I am green with envy and I was not intending to do green for Halloween. Have a great time - hope Hawaiian Halloween is amazing.

Martha said...

Oh what fun! Have a wonderful time!

Susan said...

Why is it that I am having a difficult time imagining Halloween : Hawaii? Is it because I think the sun never sets in Hawaii? Is it because I am insanely jealous?

jono said...

Do you think the ghost of Kamehameha will show up?. I have never been anywhere at Halloween where I could actually sweat. I can't imagine how enjoyable that might be.

If you're going to Hawaii, then it seems silly not to stay for a while.

Hawaii! Oh, how wonderful. And to stay for 2 weeks? Sounds good to me. ALOHA!

This N That said...

LOL.. You tell that snooty cat of yours that I was actually looking forward to a post from her. Never again. Are you really in Hawaii? If so have a ball. You will be missed in the interim. Enjoy yourself. Life is short.

I am SO excited for you! HRH, you get the house to yourself! Party on.

I'm also excited for Deb (and Rare One, I assume). Have a glorious time. Soak it all up and in. Be safe too.

Magaly Guerrero said...

Her Royal Highness always knows what to say, and how to say it so that wee poor humans continue to yearn for her snarky wisdom.

Read you soon, Debra. I shall keep an eye (or three) open for the guest post.

Wendy said...

Lucky you!

Sandy said...

Hope you had a good trip. Makes sense to stay longer and make your time there worthwhile. Happy Belated Halloween.

Jenn said...

Fun!!! I imagine every holiday is better in Hawaii!

Fundy Blue said...
