10.04.2008, TOKYO DISNEYLAND
AHHHHHHH Disneyland!! Where I have ALWAYS wanted to go ever since I was a child. After going to the smallest Disneyland in Hong Kong 10 months ago, I knew I had to go a bigger one. So this was my 2nd Disneyland within a year. Hahaha..but the not so good thing was, Tokyo has two Disney theme parks, DisneyLAND and DisneySEA. I could only choose ONE with a 5800¥ (=SGD$82.10) ticket.
As I’m a Cinderella fan, I decided to see the majestic Cinderella Castle in Disneyland. And I wasn’t ready to get myself wet in such a cold climate. Heh heh.
A little small history of Disneyland…
‘Tokyo Disneyland (東京ディズニーランド, Tōkyō Dizunīrando) is a 115 acre (466,535 m²) theme park at the Tokyo Disney Resort located in Urayasu, Chiba, Japan, near Tokyo. It was the first Disney park to be built outside of the United States and was opened on April 15, 1983. The park was constructed by Walt Disney Imagineering in the same style as Disneyland in California and the Magic Kingdom in Florida. It is owned by The Oriental Land Company, which licenses the theme from The Walt Disney Company. It, along with its companion park, Tokyo DisneySea, are the only Disney parks not owned by The Walt Disney Company.
There are seven themed areas, each complementing each other yet unique in their style. Made up of the World Bazaar, the four classic Disney lands: Adventureland, Westernland, Fantasyland and Tomorrowland, and two mini lands, Critter Country and Mickey's Toontown, the park is noted for its huge open spaces to accommodate the massive crowds the park receives on even moderate attendance days. In 2007, Tokyo Disneyland hosted approximately 13.9 million guests, ranking it the third-most visited amusement park in the world, behind only its two American sister parks, the Magic Kingdom and Disneyland.
Tokyo Disneyland will celebrate the 25th Anniversary of its grand opening in 2008.’

Ok, I have taken like 170 pictures in the theme park. I don’t think I can upload them one by one, it will take me forever. So let me display them in the slides as attached.
