Tokyo Disneysea
I am not a fan of theme parks. Honestly, I am afraid of those "free-fall" feeling - the sudden drop. But theme parks are hard to miss especially when you're taking about Disney. :) It will always be an opportunity for pictorials.
Tokyo Disneysea is the only sea-inspired park at the Disney franchise. This is very unique in Japan. Despite its name, it is not really located in Tokyo, but in Maihama, about 30mins from Tokyo Central Station. I was happy that this time, the weather cooperated and it was a sunny day!
Our day started very early since we are an hour away from Maihama. We took the train to Tokyo, changed at the central station (very crazy station!) to Maihama and rode the Disney train off to Disneysea.

| We were a month away from Christmas so this greeted us when we arrived at the Disneyland Station. |
Tokyo Disneysea covers a lot more than Hong Kong Disneyland. It has more rides than its Hong Kong counterpart, with several unique ones as well. Attractions are one of the kind, since this is more of a sea-themed resort.

Tower of Terror. We didn't ride this but Louie tried this during his past visit to Disneysea.
A haunted hotel with different things to find as a detective. By the end of the ride, elevator
will take you to the highest floor and free fall you to the lobby. I almost fainted on the free fall
part - we are just at the outside. So, no, thank you! |
 |
| The Venetian Gondolas. I wasn't able to try this at the Venetian Hotel in Macau, so why not take it in Disneysea. |
 |
| Various vehicles around the American Waterfront. |
 |
| The Magic Land Theater in Arabian Coast. |

The ride will take you at the top of that mountain and shots you down. |
