Tokyo Disney Resort – Part 1

Posted on by Laura Gilbreath
Tokyo Disney Resort - Day 1 When we last left our merry band of adventurers, we had just finished two wonderful days at Hong Kong Disneyland. Deb, Linda, Jeanine, Jack, and Pete flew to Tokyo the next day while Lee and I spent a day sightseeing in Hong Kong. Lee and I had moved to a hotel on the Kowloon Peninsula, so had to make our way back to the airport. We took a shuttle bus that picked up at our hotel as well as several others. Lots of narrow streets and no street signs - I'm really glad our bus driver knew where he was going because I would've been hopelessly lost!
