Hi all! I love writing trip reports and took lots of notes on my recent two-week solo trip to Japan! I know this is a Tokyo Disney forum but I hope that the non-Disney parts of my trip are also interesting/helpful to those planning similar trips.
This trip was a bit "last minute" in that I did not start planning until mid February, so just over three months in advance. I am big on using credit card points/benefits so I will talk about that as well. I am a WDW annual passholder as well as a Disneyland magic key holder, and Tokyo Disney has always been a dream trip. After many years of dreaming, I finally decided to make it happen this year.
This was my first trip overseas and certainly my first big solo trip (have only done solo trips to US parks before) and overall it was a fabulous trip. I'm a big foodie and love to shop, and I'm also one to splurge a bit on hotels, so I'll be writing a lot about my experiences trying out eight different hotels across two weeks.
