Halloween at Tokyo Disney Resort Part 2: Disneysea’s decorations

When I go to TDR for Halloween, I find that my time at Disneysea is spent staring at the decorations (Disneysea is such a beautiful place!) and trying to eat all the food (trying, because even eating my way through a fraction of what’s on offer is a challenge). We covered the food in the previous post, so this time we’ll look at how Disneysea is decorated in the spirit of Halloween.

Halloween at Tokyo Disney Resort Part 1: the food

Halloween is both my favourite time to be in Japan and my favourite time to visit Tokyo Disney Resort. Both Disneyland and Disneysea are decorated really well for Halloween, there is plenty of themed food, and Disneyland comes with the added benefit of the opportunity to dress in costume! More about the costumes later, though. Today we’re going to have a look at some of the Halloween food that was on offer at TDR this year.

Christmas at Tokyo Disney Resort Part 3: Disneysea

A couple of weeks ago I wrote about the Christmas decorations and merchandise at Tokyo Disneyland. We visited both Disneyland and Disneysea on 7 November 2014, the first day of Christmas at TDR. We reached Disneysea at 5pm – an hour before the cheaper twilight passes are available (and they weren’t selling the discounted 3pm passes that day). The cast member at the ticket booth suggested we wait an hour for the cheaper tickets, but knowing that we only had a few hours to do Disneysea, we went straight in.

Christmas at Tokyo Disney Resort Part 2: Disneyland’s decorations and merchandise

In my last post, I wrote about the edible Christmas treats at TDR. Of course, there is more to Disneyland and Disneysea than just the food (although the food is one of my favourite parts!). The effort that goes into making the parks a beautiful place is astounding. I’m not sure how they can go from having the parks covered in Halloween decorations one week, to being decked out for Christmas just seven days later, but somehow they manage to pull this off and this year I got to witness it!

Christmas at Tokyo Disney Resort Part 1: the food

Christmas festivities began at Tokyo Disney Resort over a week ago now – back on Friday November 7th. I was very happy to be able to experience the very first day of TDR’s Christmas 2014! It has taken me a while to get around to this post as since then I’ve flown home to Australia, immersed myself in reality again, and have had to start getting all of my photos together. But here we are! I’m going to tackle Christmas at TDR over a couple of posts, starting of course with the food, because eating my way around the two parks is one of the things I do best.
