Vickie and I experimented with a dining option. We’d tried it before at Citricos in the Grand Floridian, and it worked. We were told over the phone that no reservations were available at Citricos for the time we wanted, so we chanced a walk-up request and were seated within a few minutes! So this day, … Continue reading "More from Japan (Epcot)"

It was the longest plane flight I’d ever experienced: 14 hours in the air from Newark, NJ to Tokyo, Japan (specifically, the New Tokyo Narita International Airport east of Tokyo).
