Tokyo Disneyland
When we found out that Japan had a Disneyland, we decided to splurge and treat the children while we were there. We rode the metro train from the Higashi Nokorozawa station to the Maihama station, almost two hours, and we were there.

Toontown proved to be a great place for Joel and Amelia. They visited Donald Duck's Boat, Minnie Mouse's house, and Chip and Dale's Treehouse (pictured here). Joel and I enjoyed the Gadget's Go Coaster, his favorite ride, which we rode four times. 
We escaped from the rain for a half-hour to watch "One Man's Drean--the Magic Lives On!" The singing and dancing was top-notch, which is what you would expect at Disneyland. 
Joel met Bianca from The Rescuers, my favorite Disney animated film. Now he wants to see it, too.
Joel and Marisol asked the Cinderella Mouse to have a picture with her. She squeaked, "Yes."
The Jubilation! Parade allowed us to see the many Disney characters who were not out and about during the day because of the inclement weather. They had special transparent rainclothes to protect their costumes.
We took a ride on the Mark Twain Riverboat. It was a really nice ride. I had never done that on any of my previous trips to Disney.
One of our favorite rides was the Dumbo The Flying Elephant Ride.
Not much magic in this blurry, nightime photo of Cinderella's Castle, but at least you know we stayed until nightime. All in all, a magical day despite the rain.
Joel wanted to have his picture taken with Roy Disney and Minnie Mouse.

Amelia noticed Cinderella's dress while we were window shopping.
The first thing we did was ride the merry-go-round. Although Amelia looks a little scared, she did ride two times.
After the Castle Carrousel we rode Alice's Tea Party.
What would a trip to Disneyland be without It's a Small World? That's almost sacrilegious!
A new ride which we enjoyed was Pooh's Hunny Hunt, especially when the car bounced along with Tigger.
