July 20th Notes/Tips:


Knot Hotel: Breakfast is very American meaning it has its eggs, bacon, etc. My family liked the food just fine. For dinner, the Knot Hotel had a restaurant. I would not eat there again seeing how the food was not that great, pricey, and lacking satisfaction.


Tokyo Government building: My brother, my parents, and I went there. It was a 360 degree view of Tokyo. There were some great views. It was free. It was/is a great opportunity to take pictures and make videos.


Lunch: My brother already left to go catch his flight home so my parents and I went to a Japanese ramen restaurant. The menu was only in Japanese. You must pay ahead of time with only cash. Credit and debit cards were not accepted. Knowing Japanese is important as Google translate hardly did a thing to help you order food. The money was worth it because the ramen was absolutely awesome. Having said that, the portions are big so one bowl of ramen could feed 2 to 3 people.


Be aware when being out traveling for a while, people get tired or at least that is my experience so make sure you take time to relax and rest. You should set an alarm clock so you do not oversleep and miss breakfast. My brother and I relied on the alarm clock because we would've missed breakfast without it.


Here are some tips/notes for July 21st:


The Knot Hotel: I had a solid night's rest. My brother thought it was okay. There was nothing wrong with it, but it wasn't great. Check out was simple.


Tokyo Disneyland: Getting to Tokyo Disneyland wasn't too bad, but it depends on where you are coming from. Food was good. It was meant for ages 4 and 8. There were a lot of quirky shirts, headbands, etc that a quirky designer would like. Mixing and matching items would be cool. There are a lot of shops with a lot of Disney characters' purses, plushies, bags, and so forth. The castle was very nice and full of detail. There were some cool fireworks, performances, etc. Space mountain and Star tour were great rides for older folks. Small World has a great concept in its message and is designed for all age groups. Even though this was designed for young kids, it was great to see men, women, teens, young adults, and so forth enjoying their time there. It was interesting seeing both genders male and female, and of all ages wearing these Disneyland character purses and apparel. As someone that never went to Disneyland, it was interesting to see what it is all about but I wouldn't go again unless someone really wanted to go. Having said that, this would be perfect for Disneyland fans because it has all kinds of characters, etc.


Here are some July 22nd tips/notes:


Tokyo Disneyland Hilton Hotel: The hotel has comfortable beds, quite big rooms, closest to American in terms of style. The Wi-Fi is quality. There are mini cafe-like stops aside from the main buffet where you can get breakfast food. I will sleep here again. Seafreo the cafe served really good tea. I'd sleep there again, but it is pricey.


Tokyo Haneda Airport: The people who check your bags weigh your luggage. It is really hard to have your bag be over 50 pounds. Airport food was really good. I loved the dipping noodles. The airplane food coming back was gross. American airlines and Delta weren't as good with their quality of food than going into Japan.


Closing Message: I hope you all enjoyed reading the tips and notes about the last 3 days experience during my Japan 2019 trip! I look forward to you all reading the next blog! Have a great day!
