The text list below contains the captions of all images in the set.

• The first monorail arriving at Bayside Station this morning.
• 6:52am - A good size line of guests already at Disneyland is visible in the distance.
• A closer look you can see the guests lined up beyond the Monorail beam.
• Before breakfast I needed to buy a park ticket for today. The app said sold out, but the hotel had a supply.
• First confirmed I could buy them. They only except cash, no room charge or credit card.
• I had to use the currency exchange machine in the lobby since I did not have enough cash to purchase the three tickets we needed for the day.
• The current rate of 127.79 yen to the dollar was actually better than our original cash exchange rate before arriving but not as good as what we have been seeing on our credit card (that was in the 130-135 range)
• You still get a paper ticket if you purchase this way. Interesting they are generic not 40th and you could not add it to the app until after you scan into the park.
