Tokyo Disneyland is a must visit place for those who are
visiting Tokyo. If I am right, there are 11 Disneylands around the world.
Area-wise Tokyo Disneyland is comparatively similar to that of France.

We know very well
that it is barely possible to cover all the attractions in one day. The vast
area and the number of attractions are not the only reason, but the long queues
for getting tickets; yes, at least we have to wait for 45 min to get a ticket
for one attraction. ‘Fast Pass’ options are there, but they have clever
limitations of usage. There are people who visit two days consecutively to
cover all the attractions peacefully. As we are not interested to try out all
the rides and our aim was just to get around the park and take some pictures,
we purposely booked the tickets at 3 pm.
We arrived at the Haneda Excel Hotel Tokyu (from Sapporo)
around 12 pm. First we had a Japan traditional lunch at the Haneda airport
itself and took a bus to Tokyo Disneyland.

A Mickey Mouse, beautifully designed with flowers welcomed
us. The entrance was the World Bazaar, looked like early 20th
century American town with shops and restaurants on both sides of Victorian
style streets. Since it was Sunday the crowd was quite high.

and Tomorrowland.

We tried to get ‘Fast Passes’. In Tomorrowland, we rode Star
Tours. It was a 3D simulator that we travelled in the Universe in a Star
Speeder 3000 vehicle controlled by a Robo pilot. It was a nice ride; we thoroughly
enjoyed!

Next we went to the Captain EO show. It was also a 3D film
tells a space related story of Captain EO played by Michael Jackson. It was
definitely more than a 3D film, the music, the dance and the way they revealed
the story, everything was beyond words.

There were beautifully pruned trees in various shapes. We just
walked around the different zones of park and enjoyed the beauty of the
attractions and took pictures. In the evening, people were settling on the
streets to watch Disneyland parades which are the main highlights of Disneyland.

The transport was easy to return to our hotel. Just had to
take a bus from Disneyland to Haneda airport. We bought dinner at the airport. For
those who want to enjoy the day to the utmost, it is required that you arrive
early at the theme park, as the time whiles away not by enjoying the rides but it
does so by waiting for the tickets!
