Tokyo Photo Diary: Tokyo Disney Sea

Well, well, well...  Look - I finally invested some time into editing a whole bunch of Japan photos on my 5-day break last week (ED does have a few perks, including rostered time off!)!  So I guess that finally brings us to day 3?  Day 4?
I forget - it's been far too long.

Whatever day it was, Simon & I spent it at Tokyo Disney Sea.  Not your usual bright and technicoloured Disneyland fare, but a darker, moodier, sea-themed park dedicated to those "other" Disney movies (Journey to the Centre of the Earth?  Something with ships & pirates?).  Anyway, apparently the rides were great if you were bothered to wait in line for hours.  We managed to get onto one (the Journey to the Centre of the Earth) but ended up skipping the Toy Story ride because by the time we arrived, all the fast-passes were finished for the day!!  And that was only at 45mins past opening time...

Note to self & golden tips for those wanting to go - get there mega-early, and dedicate your first few minutes running to the rides to get your fast-passes.  Or else you'll MISS OUT.

Nevertheless, the most amusing thing about this amusement park was the fact that plenty of Japanese people appear to be obsessed with Disney.  Not many foreigners in sight, but lots of school girls (what are you doing out of school??) and adults alike - decked out in Disney garb.  I think most of my photos ended up being of the various outfits on show!  Tokyo Disney street-style perhaps?

Enjoy the photos!

 

Ending with my favourite photo of the day.
