Tokyo- more pictures to come...

**So how nasty is that? This is a public toilet in the air port...
** All Asian toliets look complicated!
** They have some super pretty sunsets..
** Preston at the entrance/exit to Tokyo Disney Sea as we were leaving..
** These buildings are so pretty, they're inside Tokyo Disney Sea

** I was just in love with this fountain and the lights surrounding it
** We didnt want to leave..



** We got a kick out of watching 'Max'.. he bolted out of the character area and just ran .. stopped at the ice cream stand for a second then ran again.. best part was watching the other disney worker chasing him around yelling his name..
** Stitch is big in Japan

** Infront of the Indiana Jones Ride- theres is better then the California one!

** Outside of the Indiana Jones Ride, this one is based on the Crystal Skull

** Our lunch... it was interesting.. my favorite part was the desert a pineapple mouse and mango sauce



** Its such a pretty park
** I loved the old style buildings


** That scarf thing came in way handy! We both have one now, all japanese wear them. They help in the heat..
** Killing time in line
** The Tower of Terror ... the ride is the same, but a different story line. This one has to do with an older man who explored some village in africa and was given a monkey shrine and it was evil. At least that is what we could pick up from the video clips... it was all in Japanese


** The entrance to Tokyo Disney Sea, isnt this a pretty place?!
** I absolutly LOVE this fountain.. the earth rotates around on this fountain as the water sprays i love it!
** Arent the windos awesome? Shaped like Mickey!
** The windows and hand grips on the monorail to take us to Tokyo Disney Sea
** The monorail that takes you to Tokyo Disney Sea

So from July 18 - July 23 Preston and I went to Tokyo for leave. It'd been over a year since we've had any vacation and we really really needed to just get away. The flights are short and cheap and we had found a cheap Military Hotel and we've always wanted to go to Tokyo, Japan and to Tokyo Disney and so we did it! Haha, Preston got his first stamps in his new Passport! Haha i was teasing him about it cause i have more stamps then him! Anyway, we had so so much fun there. It was A LOT more humid then we'd expected. You were always just dripping with sweat.. like youd just stepped out of the shower! It was always around 90% humidity! Even indoors you can feel the humidity. It would take about an hour for our hotel room to get cool and get rid of some of the humidity. We want to go back again one day, just not during the summer! Tokyo is more of an adult place then children. There just didnt seem much there for kids, its mostly stores like Armani, Dior, Prada and Luis Vatton everywhere ... we only saw 1 park and then disney land and disney sea for kids. Thier Disney is a lot like ours, mostly same rides. Their Indiana Jones is better haha ... but their parks our HUGE!!! It took us 30 min to get from one ride to another that was only half way across the park! By the time we'd get back to our hotel we'd be exhausted! And our legs were so soar- there are so many hills here! You walk up hill boths ways haha we decided it was Asians who came up with that saying as we do walk up hill both ways! So here are some of our pictures from Tokyo...
