  • Page Number: 1
    My first glimpse of Tokyo. It was cloudy/overcast and with the wing I could not see much. Thought I may have seen Disney on approach but hard to tell and I could not get a picture.
    Passed over this small runway near touchdown.
    Walking through the Tokyo airport toward customs.. it was a long hike. We were at the second to last gate.
  • Page Number: 2
    After customs and waiting an hour it was time to catch our bus to Disney.
    A vending machine for bus tickets. We bought ours inside from a human to ensure we did it correctly.
    We are the last stop.. Hilton Tokyo Bay.
  • Page Number: 3
    The bus stopped at two other terminals so we drove in circles around the airport for a while before leaving.
    This is where we started... the plane is on the other side of that building.
  • Page Number: 4
    You can see an engine/wing barely.. but we kept circling..

    Here is a short video clip driving around on the bus.
    Some cherry blossoms are still visible along the road.
    Heading toward downtown.

    Some shots along the highway to pass the time.
    Found this to be a confusing sign at freeway speed.

    To the left Disneyland.. in the middle DisneySea and on the right the hotels.
    Cinderella Castle.. so odd to be driving along the freeway and see it.

  • Page Number: 12
    Passing by the Disney Ambassador Hotel
    Overhead a monorail garage/round house.

    Bayside Station. This is where you catch the monorail.

    Thought this was interesting. Umbrellas you can borrow for your time at the Ikspiari, for free.
