So Jess, how's the trip planning going? Getting excited? Still worried about MacKenzie? When do you fly out?

Mel, i havent even planned anything!!! can you believe it! it is SOOOOOOOO not like me! Last trip I planned for a year!.

Hopefully when we get past christmas I can start a countdown!!!! I want to make one of those beautiful ones i have seen on pintrest!

A few questions:

1. do you need to call the limo company and book before arriving at the airport?
2. do we just buy our tickets from the hotel? or online before going??

thanks!

Hi Jess.

Are you talking about the airport limousine bus? If so, you just buy the tickets when you arrive at the airport. If you are talking about a proper limo, then I would probably pre-book before departure. What time are you arriving in Tokyo, as that will affect your transport options.

As for park tickets, buy them at the hotel, it is really easy. Remember that if you buy a four day park hopper, you cannot hop on the first two days - you actually have to nominate which park you want to go to on the first two days, then you can park hop for the last two days.

The limo bus ticket stand is easy to spot in the terminal and I think Disney resort limo bus leaves from number 11.

If you are staying at a TDR hotel you can park hop on every day with the tickets purchased at the front desk.

So excited for you! TDR is such a beautiful place! Have fun.

The Shibuya Disney Store is fantastic - and it is a great part of Tokyo to visit too. To get to the store, you have to cross over the famous "Shibuya Crossing" - the busiest pedestrian crossing in the world and it is great fun - Della and I crossed the road about four times just to be in the crush! Check out the Shibuya Crossing youtube videos!

You can't have many sleeps to go Jess - can't wait to hear your stories from Japan :)

Awesome - we loved Harajuku on a Sunday - great for people watching!

Here you go - I've drawn you a map so you can find the Kiddyland store - it is the yellow pin down the bottom.

then onto Ikebukuro to Sunshine city, big shopping complex and an aquarium on the 10th floor.
And there is a Disney Store there too (an old school one, like the old Sydney stores!)

Sorry Jess - you are right! I just checked their website and they have moved back to their old multi-story store. They mustn't have liked the location on Cat Street, even though it was a really fancy shop. I've updated the map above. This store is much easier to find as it is on the main street, just two blocks from the station (the other store was tucked away in an alley!).

Have a great time!
