It’s been a while considering that I’ve done a Throwback Thursday as well as today’s is timely considering that it’s spring / Easter themed. As you may recall, I checked out Japan in May-June of 2016. So almost a year later, I’m lastly publishing about my experiences at Tokyo Disneyland!
I showed a couple of pictures from Tokyo Disney on the blog ideal after my trip, with a pledge to compose a a lot more thorough publish later… as well as here’s later!
First, I must admit that we never set out to see Tokyo Disneyland when we organized out our Japan itinerary. however toward the final leg of our trip, we discovered ourselves with 2 things: additional cash, as well as additional time. I’m not Disney consumed however I do take pleasure in enjoyment parks as well as Tokyo Disneyland seemed like a special experience. My SO did some quick research study – we didn’t even understand that Tokyo is really house to not one, however two Disney themed parks – did you understand that? There’s the routine vanilla Tokyo Disneyland as well as the water-themed DisneySea.
DisneySea. picture source.
We were rather lured by DisneySea however we discovered that it is normally rather packed on Fridays, so we selected “just” Tokyo Disneyland however vowed to see DisneySea when we return to Tokyo in the future.
A idea we discovered from our research study was to get our tickets in development from the Disney store in Shibuya (which was close to our hotel) in buy to minimize wait times when we shown up at the park, so we trekked over:
It was so charming as well as a preview of things to come!
Each adult ticket costs ¥7,400 which is approximately $90 CAD / $67 USD. As luck would have it, after we made the decision to go to Tokyo Disneyland as well as bought our tickets, I ended up not feeling well – potentially a tummy bug or ate something that didn’t agree with me.
The journey from our hotel in Shibuya to Tokyo Disneyland included several trains during the height of rush hour – in a extremely uncharacteristic move, I nearly passed out on the train on the way! But, I insisted we go to the park considering that we had already gotten tickets as well as I didn’t want to spoil our trip – so we ended up getting a taxi to drive us there. I had a nap on the method as well as felt much much better when we shown up at Disneyland however I still not 100% – let’s just state that I was incredibly thankful for the abundance of clean washrooms (not to mention the washlets!) at parken!
One thing we did discover prior to checking out the park was that one of the most prominent rides, Pooh’s Hunny Hunt, was shut down just for the day that we were checking out – typical!
But considering that I wasn’t feeling well, we didn’t do a great deal of rides (only extremely tame ones) however we walked around the whole park. The weather condition was absolutely best – low 20’s C as well as not a cloud in the sky.

Here are a few snippets as well as pictures of our experience at Tokyo Disneyland.
One Man’s dream II Show
Woohoo!
This is a online tune as well as dance stage show that has performances 4 times a day. What’s fascinating about this show is exactly how tickets for the show is obtained: it’s a lottery system! however they make it fun by having these terminals where you go into your park tickets to try your luck – we were so anxious that we’d “lose” however we “won”! They specify that you can only attempt once… or else (I don’t understand what, they kick you out?)
The show itself was quite common fare – costumed performers singing as well as dancing. The storyline was totally lost on me… there are poor people from different Disney motion pictures as well as in the end they are all delighted as well as dancing.
Popcorn
The honey flavoured popcorn.
We did not understand this prior to checking out however one of Tokyo Disneyland’s crucial features is their POPCORN! people line up down the path for them. What makes them so special are the special flavours available: Caramel, Curry, Honey, Milk Chocolate, as well as Soy Sauce as well as Butter. We tried the Honey, Milk chocolate as well as Soy Sauce as well as Butter.
Soy Sauce as well as Butter popcorn.
Our much-loved [turned out to be] the Soy Sauce as well as Butter – it’s savoury however not as well salty. The visitors are so dedicated to the popcorn that Disney offers refillable, collectible plastic buckets to home the popcorn. inspect out this thorough publish about the popcorn as well as buckets, if you’re interested to discover more!
Hippity Hoppity springtime Parade
This was the primary attraction for us! It was such a fun parade, full of catchy music, dancers, as well as Disney characters on floats.
They were wanting everybody “Happy Easter” even though it was early June when we visited, as well as the actual Easter had already passed (it was in sen mars i fjor). De virkelig ikke partner påske med det religiøse aspektet, mye mer av en hendelse av våren. Jeg mener, hva skal bunnies så vel som egg må gjøre med påske, uansett? XD.
De gjorde et eggløp.
Paraden varte ca 15 minutter.
Mat
Forvent ikke bare burgere samt pizza på Tokyo Disneyland! De har burgere så vel som pizza, men tilbyr også japanske valg som ramen, dumplings, samt karri.
Til lunsj sjekket vi ut dronningen av hjerter bankettsal som var en kafeteria stil restaurant.
Line-up var ganske lenge, men vel verdt det – hele miljøet på stedet var som å være inne i animasjonsversjonen av Alice in Wonderland.
Venter tålmodig på at maten vår skal monteres!
Ost hamburg (med hjerteformet ost); Jeg kunne ikke fortelle deg om dette var noen form for gode. Jeg tror jeg spiste bare cracker og potetmos …
Til middag dro vi til Plaza Restaurant på Tomorroysland siden de brukte ris på menyen (min dårlige mage!)
Hvis jeg hadde følt meg bedre, ville jeg ha fått den Mike Wazowski Bun!
Min så fikk biffrisen – inspiser ut Mickey-musen formet hardkokt egg:
Hvordan gjør de det? (Her er en hjemme om å veilede, men jeg kan ikke forestille at de gjør dette på Disneyland når de pumper ut mange dem om dagen)
Vi likte likevel indulged i Minnie, så vel som Mickey Mouse Ice Pops:
Suvenirer
Dette er et område som jeg følte at Tokyo Disney falt kort. Mange av minnerne var plagg eller leker – vi prøvde å finne små pyntegjenstander som viktige kjeder eller magneter for å gjenopprette for husholdningen, så vel som gode venner, men det var ikke mange.
Også, mange produkter hadde ikke ordene “Tokyo Disneyland” på dem, slik at du ikke kunne skille dem fra generiske Disney-produkter du kan komme hvor som helst i verden. Jeg hadde en forespørsel fra en god venn for noe som angav året (2016), så vel som det var utrolig vanskelig å oppdage det (jeg forstår hvorfor Disney ikke ville produsere også mange produkter med året på grunn av faren for leftover inventar). Jeg endte opp med å oppdage disse maskinene stiplet rundt i parken som gjør samleobjekter medaljoner:
De svekker disse ut:
Min gode venn var ganske glad for disse.
Her er andre ting vi kjøpte, hovedsakelig for gaver:
Dette fotball-størrelsesmetallet består av individuelt innpakket sjokolade.
Min så er søsken liker Winnie the Pooh.
Disse var for meg – popcorn og liten Mickey Container nøkkelring er så søt!
En morsom tilknyttet historie: På flyet terminal ble jeg tilfeldig bedt om å fylle ut en undersøkelse om mitt å se til Tokyo. De spurte bekymringer som hvor jeg bodde, akkurat hvor mye hver dag jeg brukte, så vel som steder jeg besøkte. Jeg ga Tokyo Disney som en av attraksjonene jeg sjekket ut, så vel som undersøkelsen Taker eliminert det siden Tokyo Disney ikke er teknisk del av Tokyo. Gå figur!
Det var virkelig en fantastisk dag!
Jeg vil forlate deg med en YouTube-video av Hippity Hoppity Springtime Parade, slik at du kan oppleve det selv:
Vi hadde den stemningen fast i hodene våre for hele dagen … håper du har en hoppy påske!
Har du vært Tokyo Disneyland eller DisneySea? Eller andre Disney-tema parker?
