Japan Day #6---Disney Sea, #7---Pokeworld

The day before we left to come back to Shanghai, we spent the day at Disney Sea. There is only one Disney Sea in the world---located in Tokyo.




Tyson poses in front of his favorite ride "Journey to the Center of the Earth" which he rode several times.
Our hotel was right on Tokyo Bay---very beautiful at night.
We wanted to experience Tokyo and its lights after dark, so we headed out for a longer adventure than anticipated. After several metro stops, and TONS of walking we made it to the streets, took a picture, and took another long journey back to our hotel.
If you ask Tyson what his favorite part of Japan was, he will surely answer "Pokemon World." While researching things to see and do in Japan, we noticed that Tyson's favorite Pokemon friends were from Japan. Even better, there was a shop exclusively POKEMON. Tyson had earned some money this past summer selling toys from China. He was happy to be able to spend it at this wonderland! His older brothers were even happier to spend the time here at Pokemon World as well, and were so supportive of their younger brother (wink, wink!)
After Pokemon World, we figured nothing could get better, so we headed back to Shanghai to see our Preston boy whom we had missed so much! Our Filipina helper, Anna, who does a fabulous job with Preston and loves him so much, took incredible care of him while we were away. Maybe soon he too will be invited on these type of vacations.


So, after a week of fast-paced activities in Japan, we were all VERY tired! We knew it was a successful family vacation when each of the boys turned to us and said "That was so much fun, thanks Mom and Dad!"
