Tokyo - Day 6

Day 6
Today we had good times and not so good times. They Disney Sea park was absolutely incredible and the weather was absolutely horrible!!! It rained ALL day long and the wind blew like crazy AND it was cold!! Mimi had brought us some cheap ponchos just in case we needed them for a rain shower or 2, but there was NO way those things would hold up to this kind of rain!! We bought better ponchos and spent the entire day taking them off and putting them back on!! The park is so unique and beautiful and we did manage to enjoy ourselves, but I didn’t get to take many pictures today because of how wet it was!! We lasted until about 5:00 which was longer than I figured we’d make it. We rode lots of cool rides…. 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea, Indiana Jones, and Sinbad’s Adventure. Kelsey and Allie even rode the Tower of Terror! Adysen said she’d never do that again!  We saw a cute mermaid show, an Aladdin 3D show and also a Broadway show that was all in English! We were all happy to get back to the dry hotel, enjoy a stop at Starbucks to warm us up, and take our rain ponchos off for the rest of the day!

We had some issues with our hotel room last night. The room was very big, but the furnishings were rather old and the worst part was that the air conditioner didn’t seem to work! We called for help and the guy came up and said that they turn on the heater instead of the a/c at night, so we had to turn off completely which lead to a stale and airless warm room – ugh!! He brought us a fan which helped, but it was still pretty icky in there and I figured that for what I paid for this room, SURELY there was a way to get the a/c to work! This morning I asked them to check it again while we were gone and when we came back, they offered to give us a new room. We weren’t looking forward to packing up again, but there is 1 floor that they just remodeled and they offered us a room there – the carpet still smells new and the a/c works GREAT!! There are murals on the walls and it’s very festively decorated. There is a magic key thing and a magic mirror and the girls LOVE it!! We are very glad to be here now!!

The weather is supposed to be better tomorrow, so we are hoping to visit Disney Sea again so we can have a better experience than we did today. We may head back to Disney Land to do a few more things too. We are praying for NO rain!!!
