This post picks up where Part 1 of our Tokyo Disney Resort Winter Trip Report left off, midday through our second day at Tokyo DisneySea. (If you care about photos, don’t miss page 2–that’s where the good ones are!) For page 1, we’ll start with everyone’s favorite: some rambling text. Our FastPass window opened as
It takes a special kind of crazy to travel to a place where it snows during the coldest time of the year. That’s what we did for our recent trip to Tokyo Disney Resort during Frozen Fantasy, a tagline that takes on dual meaning during January in Japan. If you ski, this is a great
We are back from our Christmas season Walt Disney World trip, and thought we’d drop in with some photos and a quick recap of things we did, thoughts, etc. We’ve already done individual posts for several specific topics, and have plenty more things to tackle, but that’ll take several weeks, and not everything is deserving
We pick up this installment of our Impressions de Bricker France Report after Part 4, our long day in Paris. We had called a last-minute audible and decided to do the Loire Valley rather than another day in Paris, a decision that was motivated 100% by Impressions de France. Does that seem crazy? (Note: for
We had lingered too long at the Normandy American Cemetery and Memorial mentioned at the end of Part 3 of our Impressions de Bricker Trip Report, and that coupled with delays in traffic led to us arriving late into Paris. Normally, this wouldn’t be an issue, but we were staying at an Airbnb, and were
Étretat is the next stop on our Impressions de France-inspired tour and I promise this will be much more exciting marginally less likely to put you to sleep than the EPCOT Centrist geekery of Part 2 of the Trip Report, where we nerded out over a random sign, and creeped out the locals. Anyway…Étretat. With
The day after Part 1 of our Impressions de Bricker France Report, we left Mont Saint Michel for other parts of Normandy. The first stop of the day was Beuvron-en-Auge. If you haven’t heard of Beuvron-en-Auge, you’re probably not alone. Even though Impressions de France is the Epcot attraction we experience most (no joke), I
In this trip report, we’ll cover our Epcot-inspired stops throughout Europe, plus the inaugural Disneyland Paris Half Marathon. Our trip to France for the Disneyland Paris Half Marathon actually started several weeks before the race. In fact, the story of our incredible adventure starts about 20 minutes after California’s Disneyland Half Marathon, when Sarah picked
For 2016 Disneyland Half Marathon Weekend, Sarah ran the 5K and I ran the Half Marathon. We picked up our race bibs on Thursday afternoon before heading to Disneyland and checking into Anaheim Maingate Inn, which we split with Guy Selga. This hotel overtakes Alamo Inn (the one where the roof collapsed on guests) for
In our 3 page finale, we pick up after our previous Shanghai Disneyland Grand Opening Trip Report installment on our final morning at the park and take you through to our excursion to Hong Kong Disneyland. After 2 days in Shanghai Disneyland, you’d think we would’ve seen it all–or most everything–by this point, but that
We ended Part 1 of our Shanghai Disneyland Grand Opening Trip Report as Sarah and I ate lunch, after splitting up from Mark and Molly so they could watch Mickey’s Storybook Express parade. Once they were done blowing kisses to Olaf, we rejoined them. That’s where we’ll pick up in this spoiler-free trip report installment…
