    Tokyo Disney Trip Report - June 2011

    Hope everyone has had a nice holiday weekend! As you'll remember, this trip report is happening all out of order because at the time I thought it would make more sense this way. Not sure whether that is the case but anyway... After the lagoon show we were pretty tired and it was starting...

    Tokyo Disney Trip Report - June 2011

    That is a good question. I had to think for a while about how to answer. I would say yes, definitely, it feels like Disney--especially the Mermaid Lagoon and Arabian Coast areas. There are lots of characters out and about especially toward the front of the park. We never saw a long line to see...

    Tokyo Disney Trip Report - June 2011

    About 1pm, after a quick lunch at an Italian counterservice restaurant (I think it was the Zambini Brothers' Ristorante - which was perfectly good - they serve pasta, pizza, and salads), we headed to Fortress Explorations, a walkthrough exhibit/attraction at the base of the mountain and right on...

    Tokyo Disney Trip Report - June 2011

    Ooo, good question. Let's see. Tokyo Disneyland Pooh's Hunny Hunt Monsters, Inc. Hide and Go Seek And there are some shows, which we didn't see, that are supposed to be good. It's possible there are other can't-miss things, which we may have not experienced - but those are the only ones...

    Tokyo Disney Trip Report - June 2011

    Michael, you may be sorry to hear that no, not really!! We were really saving our pennies by this point in the trip. :goodvibes The only Disney things we brought back were a Fantasmic coffee mug, a tiny TDL monorail car for my son, and one travel coffee mug with Monsters Inc. on it -- for my...

    Tokyo Disney Trip Report - June 2011

    So glad folks are enjoying the report! As I mentioned before, we were park-hopping so clothing, weather, and times of day are going to shift oddly during this DisneySea part. I'll try to make it a coherent narrative though! We arrived about 30 minutes before rope drop at DisneySea, as we had...

    Tokyo Disney Trip Report - June 2011

    We were pretty tired by this point, after our long travel day and walking all over TDL, but DS wanted to go on the Grand Circuit Raceway, of course. We would end up riding this about six times over our visit. It never fails to give him a thrill! japan8 063 by txmama_dis, on Flickr This...

    Tokyo Disney Trip Report - June 2011

    I always make sure my flash is off...and no one said anything! I don't have a lot of shots from inside the rides though, usually I am too busy enjoying it! :)

    Tokyo Disney Trip Report - June 2011

    Glad you are enjoying it! As I recall -- there is a kettle (like a small hotel coffee maker) and there is tea for it, but not coffee. There is, however, coffee in the minibar (not free) that you can brew with the coffee maker. :)

    is disneysea worth going to?

    IMHO, Disney Sea is the most stunning theme park I've ever seen. I love the Florida parks, and if I had the choice I'd still pick going there, but Disney Sea is incredible - definitely not to be missed! :)

    Tokyo Disney Trip Report - June 2011

    Thanks for reading everyone! Glad you are enjoying it! Working on it is helping me to get over my jetlag (which is so much worse in the coming-home direction, oy). I think because we bounced back and forth from park to park that it will be easier to just start with TDL and then move to...

    Tokyo Disney Trip Report - June 2011

    There are three "on-property" hotels at Tokyo Disney, all of which are incredibly nice and very expensive (on the order of $600 per night when I checked). So we opted for the more reasonably-priced Hilton Tokyo Bay, which was about $250/night but also included dinner and breakfast for two...

    Tokyo Disney Trip Report - June 2011

    May should be lovely! June can be hot and humid, but it wasn't for us. It was lovely and cool - albeit rainy a few times. Rain gear is a must in June in Japan. But I was chilly while we waited for Fantasmic at Disney Sea!

    Tokyo Disney Trip Report - June 2011

    The crowds were really variable. We were there on a Friday and Saturday afternoon, all day Sunday, and a Monday. Friday afternoon, for some reason, was the least-crowded time. We went on Pooh's Hunny Hunt at about 4pm with only a 10-minute wait. We also did Monsters' Inc with about a...

    Tokyo Disney Trip Report - June 2011

    Hi all! We recently visited Tokyo Disney and I thought I would write a trip report. I have never done one before so bear with me. We had an amazing time. We have only visited Disneyworld once (I know!), and have never been to Disneyland. But, we had such a wonderful time at the World on our...

    TSM FP question

    I did not find the stampede as bad as I'd feared after reading the boards. So don't be nervous or scared about it - it really is power walking and people were well-behaved when we were there (in early Dec., which granted is supposedly a calmer time of year). I didn't think we'd want to ride...

    Universal with small kids - is there really nothing for them to do?

    We took a 4 and 7 year old and they were just wild about the Harry Potter part and also the Suess part. We did not try Studios, just IOA. But if they are HP fans, they will love it!! They loved walking through the castle line; and my husband and I swapped for the FJ ride. They get to sit in...
