Creator's Key Takeaways

Tokyo Disneyland blows away anything we have in the United States it's not even close

I literally you know I posted a picture on Twitter of Shawn packing up the boxes of stuff that we were shipping when we shift 6 the big boxes slam home from Tokyo Disneyland merchandise is completely different

I love the parade but holiday wishes and then RINO and I were lucky enough to celebrate the next night with our friend Ashley it was her birthday and we did a fireworks cruise

I absolutely love this party it's just that the crowds every night is different and opening night sold out the crowds were not in the best frame of mind
