If we have 'Annual Passport' for Disneyland or Disnysea, we can get admission to the park at any time. When I had an 'Annual Passport' for Disneyland, I went there twice a month. And now, I don't have an annual passport. But I go very often to Tokyo Disney Resort. So I went to Disneyland a lot of times, but I never get tired of visiting places because it is a very exciting place.
Most Tokyo Disneyland attendees are repeat visitors. Many people think the appeal of Tokyo Disney Resort is its many amusing attractions and drawn by the shows and parades. And I like the park's decoration. Each event is really wonderful.
However, many people said the resort is too crowded and the fees are too expensive. I think so, too. Even so, many people go on a visit to that place. It is a very, very appealing place.
Especially I like shopping at Tokyo Disney Resort. I'm buying too many souvenirs. Because everything there looks charming to me. So I always spend my money too freely! When I go there, I'm impatient to spend my money. I call it the "Disney-magic."

Christmas tree photo collection.
The Christmas illuminations are beautiful.
I get so excited when I see Christmas illuminations!
The first photo is a Rockefeller Center's Christmas tree.
I first saw it when I went to skating at Rockefeller Center's ice rink in New York (one year ago). I was really impressed. It was very big and beautiful!! I think Rockefeller Center's Christmas tree is the most famous Christmas tree in the world.
Next photo is a Christmas tree of Santa land at Macy's.
Macy's is a chain of American department stores with its flagship store in New York. Macy's has the setting for the film of "Miracle on 34th Street" in 1947. It was like a fantasy place.
The third photo is a New York Public Library's Christmas tree. The buildings has beautiful architectural facades and this library is noted as a tourist spot. The hall was decorated with beautiful Christmas tree.
Next photo is... I forgot where I took a photo... Probably I took a photo when I walked New York City. The Christmas season, New York City had many Christmas decorations. Everything was beautiful and wonderful!!

Starbucks
Starbucks is one of my favorite cafe. When I went to Starbucks at Hongkong Airways, barista asked me "what's your name?" and she wrote my name in the cup. I always get a Caffe Mocha, because I like it, and there were uncommon bottle juice at this shop, so I bought two bottles of juice. When I am traveling, I usually go to Starbucks of the country and I usually take photo of the shop.
in Paris
in NY.

Jan Svankmajer's Alice
I watched "Jan Svankmajer's Alice."
Jan Svankmajer has made the film inspired by Lewis Carroll's Alice in Wonderland. The film is a mixture of live action and doll-animation. The film have so much dialogue-free scene and there are very simple English in the film.
I think this film is a little strange (but cute!). I think it is a bit difficult for some people, and one might think that scary. Jan Svankmajer is a surrealist. I think surrealistic works is difficult for some people, but I like his vision of the world.

Paris, je t'aime
I bought this DVD!! I've been wanting to see it.
"Paris, je t'aime" is a French omnibus movie with a LOVE theme by 18 movie directors around the world. The title means "Paris, I love you". This movie is starring an ensemble cast of American, British and French movie actors. The city of Paris consists of 20 wards. Set in the 18 of the 20 wards, each 1 wards are short film about 5 minute.
Paris is a very beautiful city and having beautiful buildings. I love Paris, so just looking at it makes me happy. And it is interesting to see the different ways that different director make the film. You can feel different interesting of each directors works.
I like Japanese director's work. Please see the movie, if you're interested.

Hong Kong
Last month, I went to Hong Kong and China for a business trip.
Ever since I went to business trip, I was so tired that I couldn't write my blog about business trip. I had a hard-schedule. I went to business trips in Japan before the overseas business trip. You know, business trip is nothing but tiring. But that was a valuable experience for me.
I arrived in Hong Kong on the first day, after the meeting, I ate Peking duck. However unfortunately, I forgot to take pictures. The waiters come to the my table with cut up the Peking duck, but I wanted to see whole Peking duck! It was really delicious.
There are a lot of sign around in Hong Kong.
In Hong Kong, any building's scaffold are bamboo scaffolding. This is an art!!!
I stayed at Kowloon's hotel. I had a few minutes in my busy schedule to walk around at night. I walked and looked at the night view.

STARDUST
I went to see the movie "STARDUST" tonight at a preview.
I was waiting for this movie to see for a very long time.
From the first time I saw the flyer of this movie I knew it was going to be great! Also I really wanted to see the movie after the trailer.
Claire Danes star in the film, she is one of my favorite actress!!
And this movie is a very fantasy movie, she plays the role of "Shooting star." Michelle Pfeiffer plays witch, Robert De Niro plays pirate, you can see a lot of unique characters in this movie.
I loved every scene in it. It was great movie. I recommend everyone to go see it!!
And this movie's website is very good and amusing!

NO RESERVATIONS
I went to see the movie "No Reservations" yesterday.
The movie is a remake of the Germany movie "Mostly Martha." Japanese title is 'shiawaseno-recipe.' Japanese title is also good. I like it.
In the movie, Catherine Zeta-Jones was beautiful and child actor was so cute! Her fashion was also cute.
I got really heartwarming after this movie.
I like watching movies. I will see the movie again at a prerelease in this month.

Halloween!
The other day, I went to Disneyland.
Now, a Halloween party is being held in Tokyo Disneyland.
It's my favorite event! I like the ambience of a Halloween.
So I visit that event every year~~!!!
When I went to Disneyland, I usually eat breakfast at 'Center Street Coffee house.' I ate yogurt and Micky-shaped pancake. It's cute!
This is a 'souvenir medal.'
There are different designs at each season.
So I always make a souvenir medal at the Disneyland.
I ate a lot and I bought a lot of souvenirs for me ;-)
I had a great time!

I went to the movies
It was my day off today :).
I went to the movies with my niece and we watched "Ratatouille:Rat-a-too-ee".
It was great! I love Pixar animations!
I like watching movies. I try to see at least one or two new movies every month.
In Japan, every Wednesday is a so-called "lady's -day" and when you are a woman you can get in at a discounted price. The first of every month is so-called "movie-day" and everybody can get in at a discounted price. You had better use that.
Japanese movie price is too expensive.
Today was Wednesday, so I could get in at a discounted price!
Today I felt so happy~~
I must study English more!
