DAY4 Tokyo Disneyland
When I woke up this morning and opened the curtains, I was a little disappointed. There was no blue sky and white clouds like yesterday. Instead, there were large dark clouds floating in the sky. It was dark and it was going to rain. But we still started to wash up, eat, and take the hotel’s free shuttle to Disney as originally planned. There are two Disney parks, one is the traditional Disneyland (land), and the other is Tokyo DisneySea (DisneySea), which is unique to Japan. The rides in the former are suitable for the whole family, while the rides in the latter are relatively more exciting, and are generally It would be better to buy a package ticket and spend one day in each of the two parks. However, I think Xiaole is still under 5 years old. Many of the activities in Ocean Park have height restrictions and cannot be played. If you have one more day, you can play in Kansai for one more day. So I only booked a one-day ticket to Disneyland. My colleague's family of three booked a two-day package. Today they will go to Ocean Park first. So in the parking lot of Disneyland, two little girls were reluctantly pulled apart. Because we had already printed out the tickets in advance, we lined up directly to enter the park. Before we even got to the door, I was knocked down by the long queue. Today is Monday, but today is Japan’s Sports Day, and everyone is on holiday, so Many people brought their families to Disneyland. Although I had been mentally prepared before, I was still taking a chance, thinking that the Japanese had just experienced a big typhoon the day before yesterday. No matter what, the Japanese had to rest and recuperate for two days, so that it would be easier for us foreigners to have more fun, and we could make some calculations. I forgot that the Japanese have experienced all kinds of wind and rain. Typhoons are nothing to them. Stop talking and wait in line. As we were queuing up and slowly moving forward, the weather was unfavorable and it began to rain. With the experience of the day before yesterday, we knew that the wind and rain in Japan can change in half a minute, so we quickly directed the two old people to take out the umbrellas in their bags, and then quickly gave them to them. Sister Xiaole put on her raincoat. Sure enough, the rain suddenly started to rain heavily, and it stopped again just after entering the garden. No matter, just have fun.
Sister Xiaole went to Hong Kong Disneyland with her brother two years ago. Thinking about it, her brother enjoyed it more. Not only did he go to Hong Kong Disneyland twice, but he also went to Disneyland in Los Angeles. My sister was young when she went to Disneyland for the first time, so it probably didn’t have any impact. Everything she saw was novel. As soon as she entered, she pestered me to buy her a big balloon worth 2,000 yen. This scene was like when my brother went to Hong Kong for the first time. It also happened at Disneyland. Just buy it. Unexpectedly, it turned into a burden in the end. Sister Xiaole didn’t like the balloon after she got it. After that, the two old people and I took turns holding it.
Before going there, I read a lot of guides online. For some popular projects, I had to get a fast pass and then ride on other rides. We couldn’t get close to it. So we followed the guide and got a fast pass and then went to ride on Small World. There was no way. I couldn’t do this project. I love it so much, I sit here at least twice every time I go. Fortunately, this is not a popular event. After queuing for a while, it was our turn. The same songs, different languages, and Little World are suitable for all ages. After we came out, the two old people said that this was so good, and they would go for another round later. .
The experience of visiting Tokyo Disneyland is very good. If you have any questions, the staff will be there to help you enthusiastically. The food is not too expensive. The weather is sometimes cloudy or rainy, so our The umbrella was put away and taken away, and it was taken away and put away again. Sister Xiaole was able to wear a raincoat to the end. When it rained, it was a bit cold and could be used as a thick coat. There is another very important purpose for going to Disneyland. Sister Xiaole really wanted to buy a princess dress. As soon as she entered the park, she asked, "Are we going to buy a princess dress?". If you want to have a good time, you must first make this request. Satisfied, I went into the store as soon as I saw it. I went into several stores in a row and almost fell into it. I finally caught the theme and bought a Snow White dress for my sister Xiaole. I immediately took off the label and put it on. It was so beautiful. From now on. I haven't taken off this skirt for a few days. While playing, I found a lot of people holding various small buckets with popcorn in them. Sister Xiaole was greedy again and pestered her to buy them. At first she was able to fool them with words, but then she couldn't bear it anymore and spent huge sums of money on them. I bought a Dumbo popcorn bucket, which my sister Xiaole is very fond of. Although it takes up space, it looks great. In the next few days, I put all the fragile snacks such as potato chips I bought in it. . Later, when I arrived in Osaka, I regretted that I should have bought one for my brother, but I couldn’t.
Baby Dumbo popcorn
Disneyland is a place where the whole family can enjoy themselves. Little Le’s sister played so much that she didn’t want to leave. It was a rare occasion for the two elderly people to let themselves go and have fun. I was always worried that the two elderly people would think Disneyland was too childish, but they both had a childlike innocence. . Halloween is coming, and not only are there Halloween decorations everywhere in the park, but there is also an exclusive Halloween parade in the afternoon. Although the weather was not good, we all had fun together and did not return to the hotel until the park closed at 10 p.m.
DAY5 Tokyo-Kyoto
I was so tired from playing yesterday that I took a nap today. I didn’t get up until it was almost time to check out. Then I leisurely took the hotel shuttle bus to Urayasu City, took the JR to Tokyo Station, and then transferred to the Shinkansen. Go to Kyoto. Taking a Shinkansen is one of the purposes of this trip. I was obsessed with Japanese dramas when I was a child. The Shinkansen, which has appeared countless times in Japanese dramas, is as deeply rooted in my heart as the dolphin show in Ocean Park on TVB. Anyone born in the 80s will understand this. In terms of price, the Shinkansen is more expensive than flying; in terms of speed, it is not as good as our high-speed rail, but it is better because we have a plot. It took less than an hour to take JR from Urayasu City to Tokyo Station. I followed the signs and successfully bought a Shinkansen ticket to Kyoto. There was still some time before boarding the train, so I bought a few bento boxes to eat on the train. Japan’s bento culture is colorful and varied, and people are very frugal. It’s easy to be spoiled for choice. After buying the bento, we took everyone on the Shinkansen to Kyoto. It takes more than 2 hours from Tokyo to Kyoto. I was so tired from the first two days. The adults all wanted to take a nap. Sister Xiaole was full of energy and kept taking selfies with my mobile phone.
We arrived at Kyoto Station in just enough time, and as soon as we stepped out of the platform, we felt a different flavor coming to our faces. If Tokyo is a fashionable urban beauty, Kyoto is a gentle and elegant classical beauty. The small shops along the way are all antique. After leaving Kyoto Station, we chose the subway. If our trip in Kyoto requires taking more than three buses a day, then buying a Kyoto BUS One-Day Pass is definitely worth the price. We didn’t buy it because after repeated consideration of the itinerary, we felt No need to buy a one-day ticket. Except for the Kinkakuji Temple, Arashiyama, and Fushimi Inari Taisha Shrine, which are a little further away, Kyoto's scenic spots are all concentrated. In order to save time and travel expenses, I canceled the hotel reservation in Kyoto and chose it after I canceled the reservation. The location is very good, very close to Nishiki Market (about 2 minutes' walk) where there is food, drink and entertainment, and you can also walk to Yasaka Shrine and Gion. The prices at the Garden, Ninnenzaka, Sannenzaka, and even Kiyomizudera Temple are much cheaper than hotels in Tokyo. The room in Kyoto was probably the largest on this trip, and it was in Japanese style. The only drawback was that the windows could not be opened for ventilation.
I put down my luggage and packed up a little before going out. A few days ago, I made a reservation on Crab Doro's website for a meal at 17:00 tonight. I have to go on time. Kandoraku is a very famous crab dish in Japan, and it is also an internet celebrity restaurant among Chinese tourists. The main store in Osaka has a long queue every day. The Kyoto store is slightly better, and it is located in Nishiki Market, very close to the hotel. close. When I went to the store, I directly reported my name and was taken into a private room reserved in advance, and then ordered. Japanese food is very expensive, so I gritted my teeth and ordered two set meals and a children's set meal. The equivalent of RMB is about 1,000 yuan. pain. The dishes are served very quickly, and the crab meat is really sweet. Each dish comes in a small portion, but there are too many types. The three of us adults were full in the end of the two set meals, and sister Xiaole also took part in the meal. She finished her children's meal. After eating, I remembered to take a photo with the signature big crab, and then wandered around the Nishiki Market. It closed early, not even 8 o'clock, and many shops were preparing to close. At this time, sister Xiaole found a big toy, commonly known as a gashapon machine. I don’t know how this little kid knew it was a gashapon machine, and how he knew that toys could be twisted out of it. He clamored to play with it. The old mother didn’t know how to play this, so she quickly asked for help in WeChat Moments, which opened up a keen interest in Japan for sister Xiaole. Today’s itinerary is not rushed, and tomorrow we will start our Kansai tour. The moon is very round, and it is destined to be a good weather tomorrow.
