Day 2 of our Tokyo trip was a visit to Tokyo Disneyland! When Loralee and I were in the first stages of planning our Winter Trip, we knew that visiting Disneyland would be a must, haha! Other than me, it would be everyone's first time there, so we were all pumped to go!
Tokyo Disneyland was the first to be built outside of the US and opened in April 1983. Surprisingly it's bigger than Magic Kingdom and Disneyland Park! With fewer rides than its American sister parks, the abundant open space seems to be about holding as many visitors as possible. Which is not surprising because it ALWAYS seems packed!
Luckily, since we went on a Wednesday, it wasn't too crowded and average wait for an attraction was 15-20 minutes. (I've been there when average wait exceeded 2 hours, and all Fast-Pass distributions stopped before noon!)
The park was nicely transformed with Christmas decorations with a large tree in the middle of Main Street. The store windows were full of Christmas-themed toys/gifts.
Our first ride was on Pirates of the Carribeans (Leyna didn't cry!) and then the Jungle Cruise. (A cute photo! Leyna in the reflection of Danny's sunglasses) By then it was about lunch time, so we filled our stomaches and headed back out.
Next we all took turns riding on Space Mountain and we took a relaxing stroll through Toontown.
(These robot vending machines were @ Space Mountain, so cute!)
It's a Small World was a nice ride that we enjoyed!
Although we didn't go on all the attractions, we were quite satisfied with walking around the entire park and taking in the site. We turned our backs to a nicely lite castle in the sunset and went back home!
The following are photos we took throughout the day that I thought would be fun to share with you! Enjoy! Fun hats Danny and Loralee!
