April Visit To The Tokyo Disney Resort - Tokyo DisneySea (April 19, 2018)

Last month I had the lucky fortune of going to Japan. And of course, one of the stops was the Tokyo Disney Resort.

I was able to spend quite a few days there, visiting both Tokyo Disneyland and Tokyo DisneySea.

I love staying at the Hotel MiraCosta Hotel, especially if the Aquasphere view is obtained. So far, this marks the 4th time staying at Hotel  MiraCosta and the third time getting the Aquasphere view. The one and only time we had gotten the Park side view, but our view was that of the Hotel MiraCosta pool and the Venetian Gondola station.

Now, we have already been visiting the parks for a couple days already. I wanted to enjoy both Tokyo DisneySea and Tokyo Disneyland without lugging any kind of camera around. It wouldn't be until the final two days that I started to take pictures with something other than my phone.


Waking up, there are already people waiting to get inside Tokyo DisneySea


Nothing but the Aquasphere, the sound of the water, and the background music. It makes a truly magical morning


Oh, it looks like they are doing Disney's Fairy Tale Weddings


They are doing the MiraCosta Wedding Disney di Cuore

Shortly after photos are taken, they are ushered away. The Park will be opening soon.

For staying at one of the Resort hotels, we are able to enter Tokyo DisneySea 15 minutes before park opening.


A lot of Guests are already here


Safety first




Although Tokyo Disneyland is the the Park that is celebrating 35 years, Tokyo DisneySea is also acknowledging the 35th anniversary of Tokyo Disneyland


It's spring time here in Tokyo Disney Sea


After getting in, we decide to head over to Toy Story (midway) Mania.




We decide to get a FastPass for the attraction






As we walk by the entrance, we notice it is a 20 minute wait, so we decide to also get in line too.






The only times I have ridden this attraction at Tokyo DisneySea has been by utilizing the FastPass. So it was quite nice to get a chance to walk through the queue and see the giant size set pieces






























After getting off the attraction, Tokyo DisneySea has just opened up for the day


A mad dash of Guests head straight for Toy Story Mania


This crowd goes all the way down the street with no end in sight


Because Tokyo Disneyland is celebrating their 35th anniversary, the Easter and Spring celebration has been focused at Tokyo DisneySea














Hello, Kitty!














Soarin' is coming to Tokyo DisneySea






























Both Tokyo DisneySea and Tokyo Disneyland have Happiest Mickey spots.








Yup! That's how I am when I go on it.








































What I saw at the end of this hall way surprised me


It's a restaurant!
The Casbah Food Court


Of all the times I have visited Tokyo DisneySea, I have never been inside here, until now.
















Raging Spirits!
























When I last visited Tokyo DisneySea in 2016, StormRider had closed and they were in the process of changing it over to the new Nemo and Friends SeaRider

We rode it two times and both times the scenes were different. That surprised us, because neither of us knew that each ride could be different.




Kind of a color contrast between the Aquatopia color scheme and the new Nemo and Friends SeaRider color scheme
























Wow! 70 minute wait to meet Duffy


































The Park is quite clean and there were a number of Custodial Cast Members standing around, waving to Park Guests










Remember Me, which is the Japanese title for Coco




















































Hopscotch play was seen in both Tokyo DisneySea and Tokyo Disneyland

C-ya at Tokyo Disneyland!

Until Next Time...
