We happened to be there during the star festival, Tanabata. The festival is based on an old Chinese tale of star-crossed lovers. The tradition is to write your wish on a piece of colorful paper and hang it on a tree or bamboo branch along with other colorful decorations.
We had stopped into one of the visitors' centers the day before and picked up Rodney's birthday sticker. The sweet lady there wrote his name on it in Katakana (Japanese writing). In our concern of losing the sticker, we went into this shop to buy his birthday button. This adorable Disney crew member, presented Rodney with a spare sticker as "a souvenir"!!
Another of our favorite rides has always been Haunted Mansion.
Tokyo Disney was primarily the same as California, but there were some differences. This was one of those---yes, it had pretty much the same story line (best we could tell, since all the spoken parts were in Japanese!), but they had added a bit more straight up haunted house feel to it. Not my favorite.
There were popcorn carts all over the park, each having its own character bucket and flavor!
We really liked the curry, but also tried the soy sauce and it was ok. I would like to have tried the white tea and the honey... maybe another time!
