JAPAN - Tokyo Disneyland

Tokyo Disneyland is the first Disneyland that is built outside the United States. Tokyo Disneyland and Tokyo Disney Sea are the only Disney parks not wholly or partially owned by the Walt Disney Company. Since opened in 1983, Tokyo Disneyland is the most profitable Disney Resort.


Early morning queue. Not hard to see why this Disneyland is the most profitable one. Such a long queue even on a weekday!


Woohoo! My 2nd Disneyland after Hong Kong. The Hong Kong Disneyland pales in comparison to Tokyo.


It was nearly Christmas then.


The theme at that time was Christmas Fantasy 2010.






Mad hatter in Alice in the Wonderland.


Goofy greeting passer-by.


Jungle Cruise in Adventureland.






Many toilets around, so no worries.


Guess what are these two tea pots. They’re actually vending machines.


The usual ‘its a small world’ ride. Kind of bored going there for the second time.


Don’t think I will be going to the small world for the third time.


Representing India.


Representing Hawaii.


Baby strollers parked at one side.


So many people standing and sitting by the pathway.


Wonder what are they waiting for?


There's a Disney street parade! Almost every Disney characters that you can name came out to greet the audience in the parade.





Tinkerbell in Peter Pan.


Blue fairy of the Pinnochio.


Sleeping beauty and her prince.


Beauty and the beast.


Pocchahontas and her friends.


Alice in the Wonderland.





Toy Story.




Many school girls walking around in the Disneyland in their school uniforms. Can’t be sure whether they’re skipping classes to be here or what.


The Cinderella Castle.






The Mickey Mouse Ice cream cookie. Yummy.



Manage to get hold of Pinocchio for a picture.



Peter Pan!


Performance from A Bug’s Life film.



Trying on the Donald Duck hat. There are plenty of Disney theme head gear to choose from.




Cinderella’s dress.


Care for a Meiji ice cream?



It takes at least a day to explore most of the theme areas. I was there from sunrise till sunset. Completely exhausted.


So long Tokyo Disneyland.


Time for dinner. I was so hungry that I can swallow a whole cow!


The famed Kobe beef. It was really expensive but delicious. This cut cost me USD70.


Made some cotton candy myself in the restaurant.


After dinner, the rest of the tour group was sent to their hotel near the airport. My hubby and I left the tour group and took the express train back to Tokyo city where we stayed for another two nights to explore on our own.
