Tokyo in summer with a kid: Part 8 (Tokyo Disneyland)

Today was "THE" day for the kid, where everything was planned for the little one. Yes, this was the day we would go to meet a mouse, duck, chipmunk, dog and more.

While I already have posted about doing a speedy, four-hour tour of Disneyland, this post focuses more on the rides and attractions that were very enjoyable for a three-year-old.

Disneyland rents strollers for 700 yen a day, which comes in very handy when moving from place to place and when the kid needs a nap.

We started off by going straight for Fantasyland and nailing the Castle Carousel, It's a Small World, Alice's Tea Party, Mickey's Philarmonic Magic (which he was afraid of due to the 3D effects and loud sounds), Mark Twain's Riverboat (in the adjacent Westernland), before going to Toontown and queuing to meet Mickey in his house. The kiddo enjoyed roaming around the different "houses" of Minnie, Goofy, Chip n' Dale, as well as Donald's Boat and Roger Rabbit's Car Toon Spin, before agreeing to take a nap. By the way, Toontown makes for really great photos with the kid.

During his nap, I managed to get away for a ride at the Haunted Mansion and the super fun Big Thunder Railroad.

Thereafter, more of Alice's Tea Party and It's a Small World, before heading to the Grace Circuit Raceway.

Don't forget to catch the Happiness is Here parade in the afternoon (after the nap) and the Electrical Parade (in the evening)!

Here are more pix of our time at the Happiest Place on Earth. All in all, a very enjoyable trip for our little one and us!
