There are a lot of mythical, fantastical things in this life. Zeus, pizza with 0 calories, unicorns and Disney parks that I have never been to.
Next year, I am actually going to cross 2 of those Disney parks off my list when I visit Hong Kong Disneyland and Tokyo Disneyland and Disney Sea!
Originally, we had planned to go this coming April 2017. Due to my little sister’s wedding (maid of honor or Japan…Japan or maid of honor?) we pushed the trip back to September 2017.
Planning a trip to the Disney parks in Japan and Hong Kong is hard…there really aren’t a lot of resources. The DISboards have a few good posters in each sub forum, but neither sub forum is very active (did you guys even know we had a Tokyo and Hong Kong forum?!). TDR Explorer is about the best resource I have been able to find.
It can also be tough to actually book accommodations at either of these parks. A lot of the websites are in a foreign language.
So hopefully, this trip report will be a fun outlet for me and it just might be informative for any of you reading along. If you also happen to be planning your own trip to either of these parks, feel free to plan along with me and share any tips you’ve learned.
We don’t have exact dates yet, those will most likely depend on the airfare and we’ll book that coming up. It will be September, and we’ll try to give the trip 2 weeks with 2 days in Hong Kong, one for DL and one for the city. Then we’ll fly to Japan from there. We’ll most likely have 3 (?) Disney days and the rest in Tokyo then other cities like Kyoto and Okinawa.
I’ll introduce who is going on the trip in the next update and will also include some interesting stuff we’re thinking of doing and which hotels we are keeping our eyes on (cough Disney’s Explorer’s Lodge cough)
