805Andrew Posted July 12, 2011 Share Posted July 12, 2011 Awesome pics and Tokyo Disney update so far, it was well worth the wait. How late was Tokyo Disney Sea open to when you went? I love it when parks are open to Midnight (or at least 10PM) like Disneyland in California often is as it gives more time to experience the park at night and gives you different ride experiences at night (as you proved with the night vs. day POVs of Aquatopia). Looks like DisneySea is the best theme park in the world, any argument there? Another thing I have to ask, will there be any POVs of flavored popcorn What was the favorite popcorn flavor overall of TPR members? And you/Elissa/KidTums? Anyways, book me on the next TPR trip to Tokyo where shall I mail the check to? Â P.S. Let me know if you need my address for that TPR Tokyo Bag O Crap Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

robbalvey Posted July 12, 2011 Author Share Posted July 12, 2011 ^^ I think both parks stayed open until 10pm, with Fantasmic! being at 8pm. As for popcorn, my favorites are Black Pepper and Curry, with Strawberry and Honey being a close second. I know that DCA at one point tried a version of Black Pepper popcorn, but it was just gross. It was like the took regular buttered popcorn and added Black Pepper flavour to it, but that's just not how it's made at the Tokyo parks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Meteornotes Posted July 12, 2011 Share Posted July 12, 2011 Loved this update. I really think everyone needs to visit this park once in their life, as it is just amazing and unlike anything else in the world. Â And Chandu rules. Â dt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hobbesx2 Posted July 12, 2011 Share Posted July 12, 2011 Tokyo disney looks so amazing... I was gonna be there now but the nuclear radiation made us cancel the trip  And now to (maybe) win a bag of crap! yippee Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saxi Posted July 12, 2011 Share Posted July 12, 2011 WOW, a lot of things have changed since my visit in 2004. Thanks to your review I can´t wait to go again! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Migs310 Posted July 12, 2011 Share Posted July 12, 2011 I need to get my butt over there! Really want to try the popcorn flavors there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mosaic513 Posted July 12, 2011 Share Posted July 12, 2011 Tokyo Disneyland and DisneySeas has been on my bucketlist for a long time. It is great to read your reviews and trip details until I can get there for real. It looks like you all had a blast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buckeye_Ben Posted July 12, 2011 Share Posted July 12, 2011 Between all the Yakitori and flavored popcorn, I might gain 10 pounds going to Japan, but I would enjoy every second of it. Definitely on my bucket list, especially Tokyo Disney Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DerekRx Posted July 12, 2011 Share Posted July 12, 2011 In my opinion, your on-ride video of Journey may just be your greatest contribution to mankind, unless KidTums grows up to be some awesome brewer or theme park chain president and demands that all parks in her chain add a Mega-lite and a Journey clone or invents time travel or finds the cure for stupidity or something along those lines. DisneySea is beyond amazing, and for as many pictures as I looked at before visiting, I was still completely blown away the moment I stepped foot in the place. Easily my favorite park on the planet with a great collection of rides, shows, restaurants, snacks, shops, and things to explore. The crazy part is it doesn't even have an amazing signature roller coaster, just a roller skater and a clone of another Disney coaster (which they managed to make better by magically transforming it to be less painful) but yet the park in no way screams "I need a good coaster!" like many other parks do. In a way I'm kinda glad the park doesn't have a great coaster, otherwise it would mean I'd have less time to dedicate to Journey, Tower, Sindbad, Indy, Aquatopia, etc! I can't wait to get back there, but until then I'll keep myself happy with the Journey hi-def POV, amongst the other videos. Thanks a bunch, can't wait to see the rest!

Top Thrill Dragster Posted July 12, 2011 Share Posted July 12, 2011 And to think this was originally suppose to be built in Long Beach CA. Â Â The park looks stunning, some day before I die I will visit. Â Â Great Update, and easily the best POV of Journey I've seen yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A.J. Posted July 12, 2011 Share Posted July 12, 2011 I remember when I was younger and heard of Aquatopia I had thought that it was a "bumper boats" style attraction and you drove the boats yourself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PayneTrain Posted July 12, 2011 Share Posted July 12, 2011 So, the plan to put together a trip to Disneyland/DCA/SFMM/Knott's/CGA next summer may take a turn to the East. I feel like I'll have more chances to go to California than Japan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PoisonedPirate Posted July 12, 2011 Share Posted July 12, 2011 My Chandu flannel I bought when we went with you guys is getting slightly tatty. I think that's reason enough to go back! Â I love Tokyo Disneysea so much! I need to go back to Japan! Hell, I just need to go back to Journey to the Centre of the Earth! Â Thanks for letting me re-live memories!

BigDipper 80 Posted July 12, 2011 Share Posted July 12, 2011 Wow. TDS is just an absolutely incredible place. Moreso than nearly any other place in the world, I want to go here. Of course, thanks for the awesome pictures! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skitt2010 Posted July 12, 2011 Share Posted July 12, 2011 AWESOME!... looks beautiful there. Thing about these places is that my GF is wheat and gluten intollerant... would be difficult trying to get the right food with the translation issues!!

Nozzy Posted July 12, 2011 Share Posted July 12, 2011 This is just astounding. I usually will go on boat rides just to see, but the video of Sinbad makes me really WANT to go on it cause it looks awesome. Well, I don't know when, but someday! Â Thanks for all the amazing pictures and video. Looking forward to the next 3! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Migs310 Posted July 12, 2011 Share Posted July 12, 2011 Hey Robb, Â If you don't mind me asking, how much did that room cost you a night because that view is just amazing. I'm guessing it has to be more than the price per night at the Polynesian or Grand Floridian in WDW. Â -Migs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aimster Posted July 12, 2011 Share Posted July 12, 2011 I cry with jealousy reading the Tokyo Disneyland/DisneySea reports. One of these days... I will eventually get my butt to Japan and visit these amazing parks. This is very high on my bucket list. Even if I'm 90 years old and in a wheelchair, it WILL happen!
