This was so funny. i loved the baby on the sea lion!

 

this was actually a part of the show. Somekind of sealion's got talent. Really weird, very fast speaking japanese, we did not get the clue of the show. This sealion won in the end.

I'm sorry I had to take some time from completing this report. But here is Tokyo Disneyland. I liked the park. Especially the rides that Paris does not have like splash mountain, which is awesome, and RR Cartoon spin. Great effect in the end. And although I like the Paris version of Pirates better, I got really worked up about the fire fly's. Very cool technique and standing out in great effect with a simple mechanism.

Very nice castle, but it misses something..

Yes thats it. A Dragon

Fish in a barrel

These guys wanted to get out

All aboard for duck mountain

Nice details in the park (gadget go coaster que)

Skull rock was a bit disapointing. This guy thinks it is boring. Or I spooked him with my flashy apearance

The nemo ride was different from all other parks

Have you guys seen an orange fish?

This ride could get you very wet if you sat between two kids who have no clue about boats and oars

This picture was my mom's reverse Fran moment, 'are those real deer??' No mom, they are fake. 'I don't believe it.'

The Tokyo Disneyland Soarin' had some special and magical effects.

Tokyo DisneySea is Without a doubt the best themed park I have been to. It is awesome. I think my favorite area is lost river delta. But the whole park is so detailed. So fun to be in. And that volcano is impressive, not as impressive as mt. Fuji, but is gets close. Onto the pictures.

even transportation around the resort is themed

you enter through mediteranian coast and see the vulcano on one side..

and the tower hotel on the other side

the hotel at night

anyone know who lives here?

a vinci machine in fortress explorations

just a random harbor picture

best thing about this waterwall is that there is a road, a monorail track and a dyke behind it and you will never see any trafic going by. Great illusion

sleeping fishes

arabian coast, which has a catchy song darkride, cool theatre and...

this double storey caroussel

onto lost river delta

where you can help dr. Jones on an excavation

rumble with some spirits

yay, 150th coaster credit

and eat at this lovely cantina

there is a hidden mickey in here

and to close with me and some very cheap disney ears shot

[Nrthwnd]

Mmmm EB, the photos of Disney Sea all look fantastic!

 

Um, when can we go back there????

 

Great photos of just all that amazing wonderful themeing, which I think really

makes this park so awesome as it is, even if you don't even ride anything, LOL!

 

And your new ears = priceless!

This report has no parks left to show. But we now go to the bonus section. Here are some pics from things I found quite funny.

This are guerilla's... who do some gardening

looks flowery

Japanese wire

you can find these everywhere

this is a rare site

every zoo its own species of Lion

statue

this is cake, believe it or not

but it can get a bit more weird

do not step on the plants

communication should be dramatic

a real barber uses shampoo in its hair

at least you know where it is

relaxed water tastes so much better

always now what your posision is

I have no idea what live steak looks like. But is must be a great show

know that its under the ground

You can buy sigarettes, but you can not smoke them

this was probably the strangest drink we found but it tasted good

domo-kun says, see you in Tokyo

[Nrthwnd]

^^

 

But EB - that drink.

 

Did it really taste like....uh..... pancakes and syrup?

 

Wierd.

 

And you have to love Japan, and cake (or pudding) in the shape of boobs, lol.

That second 'pair of boobs' by the way, had little 'blood' packets to pour over them,

(eep) and was themed (pretty sure) to the Haunted Hospital walk-thru at Fuji-Q park.

 

More wierd. Great bonus photos, EB.

But EB - that drink.

 

Did it really taste like....uh..... pancakes and syrup?

 

Wierd.

 

Yes it tasted like pancakes and syrup, with a small drop of cinamon, and it was good.

[VGplay]

Thanks for the pictures, EB. It was fun following your updates.

 

And now that I hear that pancake drink was good, I wish I would've tried it. I think I saw it only once and thought it looked weird, that should've been enough reason to try it!

[Nrthwnd]

Yes, it tasted like pancakes and syrup, with a small drop of cinamon, and it was good.

 

 

Still.

Neat.

And still wierd, lol.
