TTT Day 7 ~ Nikko

Getting Crunky at Nikko
It’s our last full day in Japan! We decided to take part in a day tour to Nikko, which we heard was a very beautiful part of Japan. I got these ‘Crunky’ chocolate cookie things the night before in Akihabara. I was amused by the name of the candy and figured I try it out.. I also got it just so I could say I got crunky in Japan hahaha The biscuits were pretty tasty.

Taiyaki
We had a short rest stop on the way to Nikko and I caught a fish there!

Taiyaki yummm
Hahah just kidding, this is a Japanese pastry called Taiyaki which has red bean paste filling inside. Very yummy

Snacks for the bus ride
I also bought some other Japanese snacks to try during the day.

Day 5 of Tokyo, and Day 2 of Disney! It was another bright and hot day as we arrived and DisneySea. It was right beside Disneyland but we had to take the Disney monorail to get there since it was on the other side of the resort. The monorail had Mickey Mouse shaped windows and handles, very cute!
