Somehow, we got roped into going to Tokyo Disney, for the second time this summer. This time, Travis's cousin, Carolyn was visiting and wanted to go, so we went with Carolyn, Maryl, Calum, and Baby Tate. This time, we went to Disney Land, so it was all new to Adam. Luckily, just like our trip to Disney Sea, it was a great day. Overcast, so not too hot, and not as crowded as we expected, since it was the Japanese school holiday.
Since it's almost Obon season, there were quite a few women in yukatas (summer kimono). You have to love a yukata accessorized with Minnie ears and bow.
Adam and Calum can't wait to ride the Teacups.
But it's a little loud! Adam did love the Teacups. I think they might have been his favorite. He loved to get spun around fast.
Adam and Calum pose in front of a playing card at the Queen of Hearts Banquet Hall. The card was slightly scary, but not as scary as Mickey and Minnie.
Riding in Mickey's car. We did NOT wait 1 hour to see Mickey or get his autograph. The Japanese are fanatical about getting the characters' autographs. Maybe they don't understand that the characters aren't real.
Adam and Calum pose with Cousin Carolyn before the Micro Adventure movie. We only lasted until a 3-D cat scared the pants off both of the kids, at which point we had to leave. Oh well. The boys had a great day, and were extremely well behaved. Adam was especially good, considering that he never got a nap, and that was his first day ever without a nap. He didn't fall asleep until we got home at 10 PM! They liked the Small World ride, the Pirates of the Caribbean ride, the Dumbo ride, the train ride, and tolerated the Haunted Mansion. We're planning on taking them again for Memorial Day 2009!
