Halloween

I saw Matt Mitcham, our cruise director from the Carnival Breeze in 2015, dancing with Twitch on Ellen.  

We went to the Syracuse Pumpkin Walk.  It is held in the park behind all the schools during the week before Halloween.   They have carved pumpkins, food trucks, craft vendors, and cartoons playing.
