Japan Pilgrimage I Day 4 - Guest Blogged by 浪迹天涯小狗

At Pirates of Caribbean ride, Tokyo Disneyland

Tokyo Disneyland is a MUST-VISIT for a virgin Japan trip.


Mickey's passport


The gate


View inside the ticketing gates.


Pooh~ (Zoomed more than 12x)


Bicycle man playing piano at a very fast speed.


Buzz Lightyear balloon. "To Infinity & BEYOND!~"


The castle.


The streets

As we happened to be early for the Halloween parade, we qued for some food and settled ourselves to watch the procession.


The food


The parade


Decorated vehicles


Donald Duck


Mickey Mouse

Its a bright and sunny day, a bit too sunny for the camera sensor.. N its zoomed in (we're seated quite far away from the road where the procession is, probably 20 to 30m?), against the sun, thus its dark.


Chipmunks


Suave. But with PURPLE CROCS!?!?

Japanese parents dote on their kids and are willing to splurge on them just so that they can enjoy themselves. I saw a lot of kids with these kind of costumes.

Well, if they have it in my size, Mistress would buy too. Well, probably..


Ahem. Look closer. Hehe. Some parts of the castle are fake


Mickey Mouse & Minnie Mouse!~


Its Mickey EVERYWHERE!~

After walking around and looking at the long ques for the rides (140min for most of them. Waiting time.), Mistress and gang decided to go ahead and que for this train ride. (We noe there's fast pass. But sold out at most of the rides.)


Train Ride


The train. Eye opener. Bring you around a lake, where there's boat cruise, and provides a bird's eye view of Tokyo Disneyland.

To have a sense of how organised Japanese are.. look at the photo below.


Lined-up Prams. (Includes prams-for-hire)


Pirates of Caribbean ride. Another 140 min wait. Those animated displays look real.


Another parade


Even the trees are sculpted perfectly. Cant imagine the amount they spend on maintenance.


Donald Duck & Daisy Duck

Typical of Mistress, she went on a shopping spree of the shops, buying cookies for the containers and a whole bunch of keychains, phone charms, a cap, some Choro-Q Disney cars, etc etc. Haiz..


The night parade. Its different. Some kind of closing parade or something.

Lastly..


FIREWORKS!!~~~

Hmm.. gotta get up early and climb mountain tmr. Mt Fuji to be exact. Jaa.
