Woman of Leisure 休闲的我: Day 4 Tokyo Disney Sea

Tokyo Disney Sea is the newest Disney Theme Park that opened on September 4, 2001. It is part of the Tokyo Disney Resort located in Uraysu, Japan just outside of Tokyo. The park's two symbols are the Tokyo Disney Sea Aqua Sphere (a water fountain with a large model of the earth) near the entrance, and the gigantic volvano located in the center of the park. The park consists of seven themed areas:

1) Mediterranean Harbour

2) America Waterfront

3) Lost River Delta

4) Port Discovery

5) Mermaid Lagoon

6) Arabian Coast

7) Mysterious Island

Some of its most popular attractions that use the fastpass system include "Journey to the Center of the Earth", "Indiana Jones: Temple of the Crystal Skull," "Storm Rider," "Mermaid Lagoon Theatre," and "The Magic Lamp Theatre."

Compared to Tokyo Disneyland theme park, Tokyo DisneySea is targeted to older guests. Many moderate to expensive restaurants that serve alcoholic beverages are within the park. Hotel MiraCosta, Tokyo Disney Sea's official hotel, is connected to the park.

That's what they say about DisneySea, but frankly speaking, I won't recommend anyone to go DisneySea unless you have already visited DisneyLand. DisneySea is not as fancyful as DisneyLand. It only took me about 2 hours to have full coverage of the park. Well the reason I chose to go DisneySea first was I have never been to DisneySea, second reason, I have already been to DisneyLand few years ago.

The Park is commemorating its fifth anniversary with a 10-month celebration that began July 14.

After completing DisneySea, we then decided to proceed to DisneyLand nearby, but as the travel agency only allow us to choose between one theme park, Jeff and I have to fock out money to get entrance ticket to DisneyLand. Though DisneySea was just beside DisneyLand, it was kinda impossible to get there by foot because it will take us an hour to get there! Luckily there was mono rail service available, 2 stops away from Sea to Land.
