Finally it comes to the last night of our holiday…. but I still don’t feel going home…. LOL
It took me few hours to pack all the belongings to the luggage and boxes…
Luckily still manage to get up on time to change the kids and catch the taxi sharp at 8am. I ask the hotel help me to book for a taxi to Disney Ambassador Hotel forairport limousine bus.
The taxi driver is very well manner and helpful to help us load and unload the belongings to and from the taxi. We were very impress with the service from the 5 star hotel of Japan. A hotel staff brings us to the hotel front desk to pay for the airport limousine bus ticket after ‘checking-in’ our luggage which will be then load to the storage bay of the bus.
We walk around in the hotel and purposely have a glimpse on the famous ‘Chef Mickey’ restaurant. The queue for the Chef Mickey is long, their breakfast is open for the hotel guests only and advance reservation is needed. I always wish I can have breakfast here one day!
I noticed the bus ticket which is put inside my pocket was lost and the worst is, it is almost time to board the bus!!! Immediately I run to the front desk to check if anyone has pick up it and pass to them. Thanks god, the tickets were with them! Someone found the ticket in the Disney store of the hotel.
There is not many passenger in the bus and both of us fall asleep soundly for the entire journey to Narita airport…..

….. we decided to have another trip to Disneyland, just to catch the firework which we miss out the last 2 days. We put the loots to the locker in Maihama station before go to the park.
This time, we go to the park by taking the Disney cruise line (the monorail) which KW described as Mickey train. Just to let her experience to take the Mickey train which she always wanted to… She like it and enjoy the ride so much, worth to spend.
We thought to go for another round of ‘it’s a small world’ ride since the kids like it so much, but we didn’t. The weather just too cold… and I thought maybe next time la…
The fantasy blooming in the sky sharp at 8.30pm and it marked the end of our holiday.
It is a tiring night as I have to think of how to squeeze all the loots to the luggage. But, it seems like impossible and I have to buy a box from the hotel in the middle of night.
The kids…
While waiting for the monorail to Disneyland
The monorail platform
The mickey handrail of the monorail
Some shots inside the shop of Disneyland
And last, night view of the landmark of Disneyland, Cinderella Castle.
I am trying to make myself stood steady when taking this shot, not bad huh!!

Disneyland is a place of fun and joyous, and 2 days there is more than enough for us although we didn’t went to play all the attraction. With 2 kids, we just want the trip be relax and flexible, so a day for attraction and another for parade is perfect for us. We even sit on the bench in Disneyland to chit chat instead of getting around snapping photo which we usually do for the previous trip. Very relax, indeed.
We actually planned to visit DisneySea on the last day we were in Japan, but we didn’t although we have already bought the ticket. We bought the 3 days passport. The weather wasn’t good on that day; it is raining even before sunrise. So, what else can we do in the raining day?
What’s more? Shopping lor…..
At first I thought maybe we can go to Garden Walk Outlet which is only few train station away, but I scare I spend too much, so better go to Shin Urayasu since I want to buy more vacuum bag.
Shin Urayasu is only one station away from Maihama and there is shopping mall connected with the train station. There is Daiei supermarket, Daiso 100Yen shop, Uniqlo, Comme Ca ISM, Muji and many… apparently, it is the best place forme us.
The kids were in their dreamland while I am ‘battling’ with the Yen. So syiok to shop without the kids disturb! LOL

A picture illustrated a thousand words.
Finally, it is the day to Disneyland. We take the hotel shuttle bus to Maihama station. Distance between JR Maihama station and Disneyland is about 10 mins walk. The weather is hot and I sweat while walking to the theme park!
The park is not as crowded as last time we went. But, I still get the fastpass for Pooh attraction as the waiting time for Pooh is about nearly an hour. As usual, we spend most of the time at Toon Town and Fantasy Land.
It’s a small world is the favorite attraction of the kids, especially KX. He enjoys himself so much and even dance during the entire boat ride.
OK, enough of crap, let’s share our happiness from the photo here ….

After feeding KW medicine, we decided to leave Kichijoji and depart to Maihama early so that she can have a good rest in the bed instead of stroller.
We first return to station Ikebukuro via transit at Shinjuku, and then change to subway for Shin-kiba before proceed with JR to Maihama. There are 2 routes to Maihama from Ikebukuro.
KW was so happy when we reach the Maihama station. Mickey is everywhere in the station and she even tells me she want to go to see Mickey. I have to tell her the sky is dark and we can only go on the next day.
We go to the hotel by the free shuttle bus provided. After checking in to our room, I bring KW to the hotel restaurant for dinner while hubby feeds KX in room.
In the restaurant, the light turns off suddenly but soon we saw the beautiful fireworks outside the window. That is the fireworks from Disney. How nice being greet by the beautiful fireworks! KW is very happy to see the fireworks while having her dinner. It was a great experience for us, too bad hubby and KX missed it.
Ps: msau is so nice giving me a pack of fever patch when I borrow the fever medicine from her later the night.
We first return to station Ikebukuro via transit at Shinjuku, and then change to subway for Shin-kiba before proceed with JR to Maihama. There are 2 routes to Maihama from Ikebukuro.
1. Ikebukuro [JR Yamanote Line] Tokyo [JR Keiyo Line] MaihamaIt is raining dog and cat in Ikebukuro by the time we reached there. Lucky that our hand carry is keep in the locker and not with the hotel.
The disadvantage of this route is, the platform for JR Keiyo line is far, about 15-20 mins walk.
2. Ikebukuro [subway Yurakucho Line] Shin-Kiba [JR Keiyo Line] Maihama
the advantage is the platform is much nearer
