Some in our group are extending their stay beyond the team building dates and had their own itineraries already planned out. The rest of us decided to go to the Tokyo Skytree that morning. The plan was to catch up with the other group at DisneySea afterward.
We did not go up the Skytree itself and were only able to visit the grounds. A mall on the lower floors houses a Pokémon Center, retail shops, and restaurants. The area around the tower makes for some postcard-pretty snapshots, especially for one’s OOTD.
After lunch at one of the ramen houses inside the mall, we headed to DisneySea via bus. We arrived in time to witness the parade held at the Mediterranean harbor. In celebration of Tokyo Disney Resort’s 40th anniversary, the song Living in Color was created. This was the song played during the parade.
I’m curious to see what DisneySea looks like. The last time my colleagues went here, as part of the company’s team building, I did not qualify to join.
Based on what I heard, there are only two types of rides here that you can consider extreme. One of which is the Tower of Terror. This explains the long queue we were greeted with upon arrival at the site. It took us hours in line for a ride that only took a few minutes to finish.
I’m curious about the science (or the technology used) behind the ride. There’s a feeling of a free fall, for sure. But did we really drop earthbound? I’ve been observing my backpack, which I was advised by the staff to put on the floor in front of me. I find this weird because It would have gotten suspended midair during the fall. If, in fact, it was a free fall. However, I did not see it move. So what is it, then?
In any case, it was a fun-filled day. The inner child in all of us was definitely happy.
