LOL so i actually got told to do this blog. Yeh well if you've been reading and got depressed cuz i haven't written anything, i'm sorry but late nights and early starts = no blogging. aha way too tired!
ANYWAY right the next day from melting from hot weather at Disneyland we decided to try its non-identical twin brother park, DisneySea! We headed out with a few clouds in the sky but it was a 8am start so the weather might warm up right? WRONG. As soon as we stepped off Maihama Station it began to get really windy and we could hear the pitter-patter of raindrops. A far cry from yesterdays scorching sun we had cloudy skies, rain and a freaken gale wind!!! D= Apparently a typhoon was approaching Tokyo and the next few days would have the same cold weather. Talk abot a 360 turn...the magic of DisneySea perhaps?
Actually to get to DisneySea you have the take the Monorail from the Station, which takes about 5 minutes, but as you walk in the entrance looks like this.
The worlds here are more water based then Disneyland, like Mermaid Lagoon and Arabian Coast. It also had a HUGE replica of the Titanic and in the middle, a giant Volcano, which spouted fire every once in awhile. The rides here also much more adult: while Disneylands rides are less extreme to cater for young kids, DisneySea has higher height restrictions on thrill rides. IF you go theres one u absolutely have to try, its called ''20,000 Leagues Under the Sea''. I won't spoil it, but its scary, got awesome views and the right mix of rollercoaster thrills. The best ride in both parks hands down. Other really good rides were the 'Raging Sprits' rollercoaster, (which was good except i got pelted by rain the whole time) and the 'Tower of Terror' which included an awesome tower in an old mansion.
And you know what? Despite the fact that it was typhoon weather, there were still heaps of people there. I had to buy a plastic poncho/sheet to wear over my shorts and thin t-shirt =SS Needless to say i was absolutely freezing. and seriously Jap people somehow repelled water because every single one of them looked DRY. Even the girls still had their fantastic lolitta curly hair still intact. I was disappointed cuz i wanted to see some pretty girls get soaked and rained on ehe.
I didnt get to take many photos cuz it was poring and i spent half the time running from place to place to escape the rain. Although overall it was a shit day, DisneySea would have been amazing and very fun if it were sunnier weather, and i enjoyed the rides here more than Disneyland.
We didnt stay here as long, and went home at around 6pm. Since it was bad weather i have no idea whether it has a parade or not, though its probably likely.
ANyway since it was so cold today we went to All You Can Eat Shabu Shabu in Roppongi!! Perfect food for a cold rainy day =(( And boy this place was pretty posh and had nice meat and veggies, but super expensive. It cost around $80 per person (small children eat for free). We were given a copper bowl for the hot pot and two sauce bowls to dip the boiled food. Presentation and waulity were top notch, but for the amount we paid i expected much more however. The meat was bland the variety of vegetables standard. Also there were little to no noodles. Maybe im just not a big fan of shabu shabu but not one of my favourite meals. Looked nice tho!
Meat spam! =D
til next time~~
only small children eat free? what about big children? maybe no such thing exists in japan
