Travel Journals - Halloween in Transylvania

October 16, 2005

Got all the materials for my costume

I had about half of my costume together here in Iraq. I needed a bunch of stuff that I just can't get over here. Today, I got that stuff in the mail (thank you, Sasquatch). I got the drywall stilts and a bunch of fabric for the clothing. Hopefully in Romania they can appreciate a big-ass pumpkin-headed scarecrow. I plan on having the costume finished before I leave Iraq. I'll defintiely post pictures, whether I finish it here or in Prague.

Here is a picture from last Halloween where I wore the costume out of the box the way they made it. For this year, I've gotten a better mask, the stilts and I'll be doing my own clothing from scratch.
