hello from 33000 feet!
Good afternoon from LAX area. We made it back into the us. Global entry kiosks worked like a charm and we were through immigration in less than a minute.
We are spending the night here before we catch an early flight to Chicago. One more leg before we are home.

Welcome back to the USA!! Glad to hear that your flight arrived safely. Enjoy a relaxing night at the airport hotel, and then fly back home tomorrow.
I want to thank you for a very interesting TR from Japan, and I really enjoyed your various photos. I knew the pictures would be great, as I've been a fan of your photography (in the Photography section of the forum) for quite some time.
We are back home after more than 3 weeks being away on this trip. We are tired but exhilarated by the spectacular trip. I have lots more photos and videos to process and upload, but we will need some time to recover from the trip.
Right now I'm just trying to stay awake at least until 8:00 pm before I crash.

Glad you are safely home. Thanks for sharing your travels.
Here's our plane departing Kansai International on our way to Narita. They do this to every departing plane! We saw this at Narita as well.

A view of the Fantasy Springs hotel from Hilton Tokyo Bay. A resort monorail sporting an advertisement of the opening of Fantasy Springs at Tokyo DisneySea happened to be pulling in right in front of its namesake resort before stopping at the Bay Side station.

Anna and Elsa's Frozen Journey at Fantasy Springs - Part 3
A few of the scenes from the ride.
This ride was longer and more immersive than the one at Epcot. Of course, they were not encumbered by having to retrofit the ride in an existing building and structure.

I posted the other day the queue line for Peter Pan's Adventure. Here is the full ride video that we took. Keep in mind that the projections are in 3D (we wore 3D glasses on this ride).

A little bit of a look at Disney's Ambassador Hotel where we stayed for 5 nights.
The hotel's architecture is very Art Deco'ish.
They even have a Donald topiary in the front garden.
When you enter the lobby from the front entrance, you are greeted by this:
But don't forget the look up, because the lobby ceiling is remarkable.

These are the on-ride videos of Nemo & Friends SeaRider at Tokyo DisneySea. Think of it as Star Tours but underwater.
We rode this twice, and was surprised to discover that there is more than one version of the second half of the show, so I'm uploading both versions here. The first version has the pre-show where they showed what I called the "Honey, I shrunk the submarine" technology. You are basically in a sub that looks like a fish, which has been shrunk, so that you can mingle with Nemo and his friends in the sea.
Enjoy!
Version 1, with pre-show.
Version 2. This version is a bit "darker" than the previous version.
