    Every time I see these pictures I kick myself a little for not getting at least one set! I loved the Tower of Terror set.

    Trip Report Don't Touch My Mustache and Other Japanese Phrases

    Before I left I asked my mom what she wanted me to bring her, and she told me just something that had Tokyo Disney on it. Trust me, that was much easier said than done. It is really hard to find merchandise at TDL and TDS that says anything about Tokyo. I found 1, yes 1, shirt that had Tokyo...

    Trip Report Don't Touch My Mustache and Other Japanese Phrases

    Alright, so after riding the Haunted Mansion in Japanese we decided to kill some time before our fps for Monster's Inc. The castle in Tokyo was a very familiar sight. Looking towards Tomorrowland: We went into some shops to kill some time where I found Disney Nanoblocks! These...

    Trip Report Don't Touch My Mustache and Other Japanese Phrases

    From there we continued to walk through Fantasyland. We stopped to marvel at the beauty of It's a Small World. Saw the Madhatter Now for this next picture it needs to be explained that TDL was having a huge Easter celebration. Basically, they were really glad it was Spring. Sprinkled...

    Trip Report Don't Touch My Mustache and Other Japanese Phrases

    This was definitely my favorite attraction at TDL. The ride had a trackless system that allowed the cars to interweave throughout. This was especially cool in the heffalumps and woozles room when your car, along with 5 others, is randomly spinning and going throughout the room. The cars...

    Trip Report Don't Touch My Mustache and Other Japanese Phrases

    At 5:30 AM I couldn't keep my eyes shut any longer. We were going to Disneyland! We got up, got ready, and went downstairs for breakfast. There was a restaurant at the hotel, but we opted to go into the convenience store inside the hotel to see what they had. The only thing that we could...

    Trip Report Don't Touch My Mustache and Other Japanese Phrases

    We ended up at a store that was basically Walmart on three levels. They had a food court, but we weren't interested in KFC. We wanted sushi. The store was bizarre though. I don't have any photos of it, but the bottom floor was groceries and men's clothing. The 2nd floor had more men's...

    Trip Report Don't Touch My Mustache and Other Japanese Phrases

    After we literally just dropped everything in our room we decided that we needed to do some exploring and find something to eat. Looking back on it I wish that we had taken the shuttle over to Ikspiari (Tokyo's version of Downtown Disney), but I wasn't sure how to get there and didn't feel like...

    Trip Report Don't Touch My Mustache and Other Japanese Phrases

    So we rode the Airport Limousine bus for about an hour until we reached our resort. We were staying at the Palm & Fountain Terrace Hotel. The Palm & Fountain Terrace Hotel is considered a Tokyo Disney Resort Partner Hotel. It was by far the cheapest of the Partner Hotels too. Basically what...

    They were really neat. Unfortunately, they had so many buttons and no English. I had trouble finding the flush on one of them. Each one that we saw was different. Thanks! I'm glad that I finally got to this. The toilets were super fancy and always CLEAN! 13 hours was brutal, but I was so...

    Trip Report Don't Touch My Mustache and Other Japanese Phrases

    Tuesday, May 27 We arrived at Narita around 4:00 PM on Tuesday afternoon. The countryside flying into Narita was beautiful! Rice fields were neatly lined up around the airport and everything was so green. One of the flight attendants commented that I looked as fresh getting off the plane as...

    Trip Report Don't Touch My Mustache and Other Japanese Phrases

    Konnichiwa! It's been just over a month since my husband and I returned from our wonderful 10 day trip to Japan. This was definitely the trip of a lifetime for both of us that took us on a journey to Mount Fuji, Kyoto, Osaka, Tokyo, and of course, the Tokyo Disney Resort. It was an adventure...

    Pre-Trip Konnichiwa, y'all! We're going to Japan

    Thank you very much! Japanese is incredibly intimidating. Honestly, there is nothing easy about it. However, there are a lot of great resources that are available. A lot of the resorts around TDR have access to their websites in English and are used to us foreigners. I know that there is...

    Pre-Trip Konnichiwa, y'all! We're going to Japan

    One thing that I keep reading is that even if you go to Tokyo Disney and it is crowded, it is still an enjoyable experience. That is really cool that your daughter can see Mt. Fuji from her apartment. How does she enjoy teaching English there? If my husband and I decided to go back to stay...

    Pre-Trip Konnichiwa, y'all! We're going to Japan

    One thing that I forgot to mention is that in Tokyo tipping is not customary. In fact, it is looked down on. However, in Japan gift giving is the cultural norm, especially if you are going to someone's home. Since tipping is in our culture the easiest way to show gratitude to someone, I did...
