Tone River

Tone river is a natural tourist attraction in Chiba, Japan. It has a nick name which is Brando Taro which means obsolete alias of Kanto, and Taro is a popular given name for the eldest son. It is 322 km in length (the second longest in Japan after the Shinano) and has a drainage area of 16,840 km² (largest in Japan). The river was once known for its uncontrollable nature, and its route was changed drastically whenever floods occurred. It is hard to trace the ancient route of the river.

disney sea

Just like other theme parks DisneySea is considered as a man made tourist attraction. It is filled with entertaining stuffs such as roller coaster, colorful parade, and especially a place where you can meet your favorite Disney characters. So why not try visiting this place and have a blast that you would never forget your stay at world's famous theme park in Chiba, Japan

Chiba has got wonderful parks and gardens. Even though it's a small place, there were some of the beautiful gardens I have ever seen. Beautifully designed and beautiful maintained, they are the perfect place for passing off time peacefully.

I was transported to Cape Code at Tokyo Disneysea. With yatchs and fishing boats out at sea, dockside warehouses, a miniature lighthouse and white picket fences all painted in white, it was like a scene out of an American period movie - erhm, except that most of the extras were Japanese! LOL

For a look around Cape Cod and the Town Hall with Clock tower, click on to see my other pics. It is similar to the Town Hall in Anaheim, but slightly smaller.

The Disney Transit Steamers bound for the Mediterranean Harbour begin their journey here. Take note that the steamers do not return to back to this Lost River Delta stop.

The ride on the river which allows you a good overview of all the various places of interest,
covers Mermaid Lagoon, the Arabian Coast and Mysterious Island, before stopping off at the Mediterranean Harbour.

Photo with your favourite Disney character

who's afraid of the Big Bad Wolf?
2 more images

One of the activities that many young teenage Japanese girls seem to enjoy at DisneySea is tracking down their favourite Disney chartacter and posing for a photo with him or her. Sounds easy, doesn't it? But you know what? Some of the characters are not easy to catch. For example, Chip and Dale, the lookalike Disney chipmunks simply love to run around, turning up at unexpected places and will duck out of sight just to have a bit of fun.

Minnie and Mickey are crowd favourites and you would have to wait your turn before you can shake hands or pose with him or her.

How well did I do? hehe, I did quite well and managed to get my picture taken with sweet Minnie Mouse, the elegantly dressed Big Bad Wolf from Red Riding Hood and cute little Pinocchio and yes, one of those mischievious pesky chipmunkcs. (see pics)

At the American Waterfront, you can take a ride in all sorts of fancy cars, fire trucks and police wagons. The drivers will stop to pick up passengers at various points around the New York and Cape Cod areas of American Waterfront.

There are replicas of old cars that are displayed here. It is picturesque and provides for good photo-taking opportunities.

There are a few rather nice full-service restaurants and food carts for snacks.

Live entertainment

Entertainers

One of the nice things going on at Tokyo DisneySea is the on-going live entertainment taking place at various parts of the park. The cast and crew get dressed up in costumes and interact with the crowd.

At the American Waterfront, for example, we watched a group of 6 or so entertainers putting on a great show with magic acts, juggling, dancing and singing. The group even featured a number of kids who performed handstands and acrobatics. Unlike in other parts of the park where the bulk of the crew was Japanese, the group performing here was appeared to be American.

For more pictures, please check out my American Waterfront Entertainers album
