Our Adventure to Tokyo Disney

Hey everybody, this is guest blogger Daniel James, for today's blog I get the opportunity to talk about the happiest place on Earth , Disneyland.  For starters, we had to take the fun subway to get to our destination . Luckily my sister and I are now world travelers and taking the subway is becoming easier and easier each time. After the numerous stops we finally had reached our destination Tokyo Disney.

Lets just say Tokyo Disney was nothing like I expected. Yes I have been to both Disneyland in California, and Disney World in Florida, but Tokyo Disney was a whole different ball game. After we purchased our tickets and finally got into the park, we decided to head to tomorrow land and ride some of the rides their.(of course my sister being the planner that she is had us stop and make a plan first)

 For starters, we decided to ride Star Tours, a classic ride with our favorite star wars friends R2D2 and C3PO.

Surprisingly, it took us almost one hour of wait time, to just get onto this ride. My sister and I are both convinced that it must have been spring break for students in Tokyo because everyone seemed to be there. After the four minute Star Tour ride we decided to take a quick pit stop and see how long the wait for space mountain would be. Lets just say that 210 minutes to wait for a ride didn't seem worth it for us so we kept on moving. 


Up next we decided to try our luck by looking to see how long the line to see Mickey in Toontown would be. Unfortunately Mickey, being as popular as he is, ended up being a no go either. We then decided to head over to both Fantasy land and Critter country hoping to ride either the haunted mansion or, splash mountain. With the lines being over two hours long we decided that was not going to happen. 

Finally, after facing defeat after defeat we decided to just suck it up and wait to ride the Pirates of the Caribbean. 

After about an hour of waiting we finally had the opportunity to ride and hear the old song "yo ho yo ho its a pirates life for me." 


Next up we decided to take a break from trying to get on rides and do a little shopping, unfortunately it seemed like everybody had the same idea. 



We then decided to go to the main castle in Disney and take some pictures. Along the way we saw some very impressive mosaics.

Finally we headed towards the front of the castle to get the classic shot. Here while waiting to find someone to take our pictures, we met some pretty funny young girls, who asked us to take their picture for them. In return they were more than happy to take our picture.

After checking the ride situation, once again and seeing that the wait times had not changed much, we finally decided to have dinner at a place called Hokusai, where i had the opportunity have trying tempura for the very first time. I must say I rather enjoyed the experience of trying out new food. 


After doing a little more shopping and checking the ride situation just in case, we finally ended our Disney experience by buying some pastries at the Sweetheart cafe.

Bye Bye Tokyo Disney
