Tokyo Disney Land, Christmas 2015

One of my favorite days of the year is our annual trip to Tokyo Disneyland during the Christmas display. Miss M and the K Man are at such a fun age for Disney. They love it and we have been so blessed to live so closely to it (and have a friend who works there for our discounted tickets). I can no longer do Disney though by myself because the kids have such different interests. Miss M has a hard time trying new things, so on Monday when we went we made her try one new ride. The K Man tried the Roger Rabbit ride which is quite dark - a taxi spins and turns. He did not cry but he did tell Daddy it was scary. However, at the end of the day he wanted to go again. Miss M was FORCED to go on Monsters Inc as we got fast passes for it. She cried all the time while going through the line. However, after 90 seconds of fun with daddy helping him find Boo with the flashlight and others monsters, she was ready to do it again on our next visit to the park. Our next new ride will be Peter Pan. We even made them try new restaurants which was brought with resistance, but they enjoyed the Japanese curry for dinner and the chocolate cake at the parlor for an afternoon treat while Mama and Daddy loaded up on coffee. Daddy made the wise call of getting the car share service and drive there because all three kids were asleep within ten minutes of our 30 minute drive home. We were grateful that we did not have to take a crowded train and walk ten minutes from the station with tired and cranky kids; rather, we could just drive right home. The K Man was quite disappointed the kids rollercoaster was not working as he was too scared to do Star Tours since it is an inside dark rollercoaster ride. But he loved driving the cars, which he did twice, one time with each parent. Even J Man lighted up with a smile watching the parade and small world, and he even rode Monsters Inc, Pooh's Honey Pot and the tea cups! Disney land never disappoints our family. We always have such a fun day and I am thankful for the endless memories we have made there while being in Tokyo.
