Mermaid Lagoon – Tokyo DisneySea

Posted on by Jack Spence
Mermaid Lagoon is the one port at Tokyo DisneySea that caters to young children. That’s not to say that teenagers and adults won’t get a smile from the whimsical atmosphere, but the attractions are simple and geared towards the little ones. The exterior of Mermaid Lagoon looks like Ariel’s underwater kingdom. Spiraling towers, in a … Continue reading "Mermaid Lagoon – Tokyo DisneySea"

Arabian Coast – Tokyo DisneySea

Posted on by Jack Spence
Arabian Coast is a sprawling port full of minarets, colorful domes, pointed arches, and winding streets. The buildings all look like they were built out of sandstone and clay bricks. There is a sense of being very far away, in a hot and arid desert. If approaching Arabian Coast from Lost River Delta, the first … Continue reading "Arabian Coast – Tokyo DisneySea"

Tokyo DisneySea – Lost River Delta

Posted on by Jack Spence
Deep in the jungles of 1930’s Central America you’ll find El Rio Perdido, “The Lost River.” This river actually splits Lost River Delta in half as it runs through a lush tropical forest, by ancient ruins, and finally, past a shanty town. This is an area ripe for discovery by the archeologists of the day. … Continue reading "Tokyo DisneySea – Lost River Delta"

Tokyo DisneySea – Port Discovery

Posted on by Jack Spence
It’s difficult to describe Port Discovery. I’ve heard it called the “Tomorrowland” of DisneySea and the “Marina of the Future.” Either way, it weaves science and fantasy into an intriguing mix. The storyline for Port Discovery is that it’s home to the “Center for Weather Control.” Here, new experiments to manipulate the climate are always … Continue reading "Tokyo DisneySea – Port Discovery"

American Waterfront — New York Harbor and Cape Cod – Tokyo DisneySea

Posted on by Jack Spence
The next section of American Waterfront I’m going to discuss is the New York Harbor area. The most prominent feature here is the S.S. Columbia. This ship harkens back to the Gilded Age when luxury liners sailed between New York and Southampton. You can board this ship and wander around several of its outside decks. … Continue reading "American Waterfront — New York Harbor and Cape Cod – Tokyo DisneySea"

American Waterfront — New York City – Tokyo DisneySea

American Waterfront can be divided into three sections, New York City, New York Harbor, and Cape Cod. The time? Just after the turn of the 20th century. Let’s start with New York City. This is the first section of American Waterfront that you come to when leaving Mediterranean Harbor. McDuck’s Department Store greets you as … Continue reading "American Waterfront — New York City – Tokyo DisneySea"

Tokyo DisneySea – Mediterranean Harbor

Posted on by Jack Spence
I guess you could call Mediterranean Harbor the Main Street of Tokyo DisneySea. You enter this port of call by walking underneath the MiraCosta Hotel (instead of a train station), and to either side and beyond this walkway is an array of shops. There is a Japanese custom to bring gifts home to give to … Continue reading "Tokyo DisneySea – Mediterranean Harbor"

MiraCosta Hotel – Tokyo DisneySea

Posted on by Jack Spence
My favorite Disney theme park, worldwide, is Tokyo DisneySea. I tell anyone who will listen, “You can pay your $58 admission, never go on one attraction, and you will still get your moneys’ worth. This park is so beautiful, so packed with detail, so lavish in scope that a person will walk from one land … Continue reading "MiraCosta Hotel – Tokyo DisneySea"

Tokyo Disneyland Resort

Posted on by Jack Spence
From Hong Kong I flew to Japan for seven full days at the Tokyo Disney Resort. Before I start describing the parks, I’d like to give you a little background about the resort. In the late 1970’s, the Oriental Land Company approached Disney with the idea of building another Disneyland-type park in Tokyo. At the … Continue reading "Tokyo Disneyland Resort"
