- Time to head for the Mediterranean Harbor.
- The 2015 Disney Easter Celebration is going on.
- The level of detail is hard to capture, I saw a lot of pictures/video before visiting but until you are standing there looking at it, it is hard to really share.
- Mickey and Minnie Easter Eggs flank the entrance walkway.
- A closer look at Mickey
- A closer look at Minnie
- The lighting was not great.. but the view was impressive.
- Easter banners line the walkway.
- It was about 3:15 and these guests are all in place for the 4:30 Fashionable Easter show. I wanted to see that but I really wanted to walk the park a bit first..
- Looking back at the Hotel MiraCosta
- The wait times at Tokyo DisneySea at 3:17pm
- A look at the assembled crowd.
- The crowd control cast members.
- Guests were waiting around the entire Mediterranean Harbor area.
- We strolled into the American Waterfront area. This is McDucks Department Store
- Turning left you look into Venice. No gondolas right now. I think they were closed because of the shows (they opened later this afternoon).
- A Big City Vehicle driving through the American Waterfront.
- A look around.
- New York was celebrating Easter too.
- My first glimpse at a DisneySea Electric Railway train overhead.
- Took a look in McDucks

- Gelatoni is popular here.
- 3900 yen for a plush
- A quick look around the store
- A better picture of the railway overhead.
- Another Big City Vehicle
- The Tower of Terror is in the American Waterfront. A little more detail than the ones here in the states.
- Here is where you can board a Big City Vehicle. They do a loop of the New York area. It is round trip, no stops.
- The SS Columbia (it contains a restaurant, lounge, and Turtle Talk).
- An outdoor vending stand. No line for Ice Cream today.
- On the Dockside Stage a show called A Table is Waiting is performed a half dozen times a day. We happened upon an in progress show so here are a couple pictures.
- A video clip from the show. On a later day I have many more pictures and a lot more video of the show.

- Only a 15 minute wait
- A quick look at the menu for the New York Deli (I go inside later)
- A performer entertaining guests. I caught the last 30 seconds of his performance only.
- A good size crowd gathered.
- I was not planning to see the Big Band Beat show today, wanted to save it for a bad weather day but thought I would try the lottery for the fun of it.
- For a couple of the shows because of their popularity Tokyo Disney does a lottery. You scan your tickets. And cross your fingers..
- I managed to win.. first try..
- The seats are assigned and ours were not bad.. center section about the middle..
- Banners inside Biglietteria, which is where the lottery was. I was planning to take pictures on a later day but due to weather they did not run lotteries any of the other days!
- Back to the harbor. I decided to find a spot near the center but back. The front sections all sit then people stand but no kids or cameras above your head so I figured I could see over most people (I am 6 feet tall).
- The stage was being raised into position for the show.
- Had a few minutes so took a picture of the ticket I bought for today.
- The ticket was good from 3pm to park closing for 5,400 yen, about $45.
- Almost showtime. Guests around the Fortress Explorations
- And the walkways by Mysterious Island. That wraps up this part. The next one will feature the Fashionable Easter Show.
