- An interesting sight line, this was taken from Tomorrowland
- Stopped by the Tomorrowland Terrace for a bite to eat. Mickey Nuggets (5 for 400 yen) and Fries (280 yen) plus a Coke from the vending machine (200 yen) which converted to $6.64.
- The rain had returned and it was going between a light drizzle and light rain.
- The rain did not shorten the wait for Beauty and the Beast, it was still triple digits.
- You could purchase your own Dream Garland at locations throughout the resort.
- Decided I was done in the rain so walked around World Bazaar
- 4:45pm - Then over to Pirates since it had a minimal wait.
- 4:49pm - Onboard, so 4 minute wait.
- The original auction scene is still in Tokyo.

- The rain let up so took a walk through New Orleans Square
- Passing through Adventureland
- The backside of the entrance to Adventureland
- The Swiss Family Treehouse is closed for renovation
- Moving around to the Plaza facing side of the entrance.
- 5:08pm - This walkway was peaceful at the moment
- No shows take place on this stage right now. The kid focused dance one that in the past was a staple here moved to the Adventureland theater.
- The selection of drinks in this vending machine. I learned that not all machines have the same location and not all machines take IC/Suica cards.
- Passing through the Country Bear Playhouse. I just missed a show.
- Walking through Westernland
- 5:14pm - Only a 5 min wait posted so decided to pay a visit to the Haunted Mansion
- The extended queue was not in use so you could get a good view of the umbrellas.
- 5:15pm - In the foyer and waiting to board the elevator.. so a 1 minute walk, no wait.

- Pirates on my right, Dumbo on the left and beyond that on the left is Peter Pan. Straight ahead is Westernland.
- Alice's Tea Party
- Making my way toward Toontown. You could see some of the Fantasy Springs Hotel construction in the background.
- Looking toward Tomorrowland
- I decided to walk toward Belle's Village and check the queue.
- The queue was still wrapping in the extended area so I kept walking
- Cinderella Castle as the skies started to brighten a bit.
- Minnie's Style Studio opened since my last visit. You can wait in line to visit Minnie Mouse. It was 35 minutes when I walked by, which was really short but still longer than I wanted to wait.
- A look around Toontown
- The North Mountain from the Frozen area of Fantasy Springs expansion to Tokyo DisneySea is visible over the Toontown Hills.
- I think that is the show building for the Frozen attraction on the right over Mickey's garage.
- Goofy's
- Donald has this interesting tree out front
- Goofy's front yard
- Thought this was interesting.. in the background is the North Mountain and the large building in front of it is Beauty and the Beast.
- Notice how the Toontown facing side is green and the side facing the Beast Castle is a different color
- From Donald's Boat, the Beast's Castle and beyond it the Theatre

- 6:21pm - Onboard and ready to set sail, so just under the 10 min posted time.
- The Tokyo version has featured characters since 2018 so this was my second visit with them in place.
- The rain returned.. not looking good for the parade.
- 6:48pm - A check of the wait times shows Beauty and the Beast dropping. Also worth pointing out the Tokyo App changes between day and night depending on the time of day.
