Hey Butters, is your English better? What is "se", anyway?

Sounds Spanish. :p

Anyway, ticket price is up and it's not easy to go to the park but also everything (except Churros) is price up too! That's too bad, and of course having an anniversary not nearly as good as past anniversaries makes it more disappointing. I guess like Butters said Tokyo Disney is getting close to American Disney parks. :(

Last years OLC turnout was not that good, and they were expecting more guests this year I think because of the anniversary, but I wonder? It's kind of disappointing so maybe some people will skip it this year. Maybe the year won't be as great as they hope!

On the other hand, because Tokyo Disneyland Hotel is opening soon that will make some crazy fans try to get into the hotel, that should help the OLC numbers! We'll see.

By the way, hi MagicalNezumi! Hisashiburi desu.

I have to wonder if OLC can keep up the lackluster offerings. I'm sure at some point they're going to realize they need to either step it up again or do something different. They have to know how people are reacting to the anniversary so far. The past few years of repeat events, and lack of freshness is going to take some kind of toll on attendance...I just wonder if OLC will do something proactive about it.

It certainly hasn't escaped notice of this 10 year visitor!

One of the things that impressed me MOST about TDR was the fact that there was always something new and interesting (even if it was some small event...just the fact that it was new).

Not so anymore. >:(

There's the "chicken and egg" problem - which is causing the other? Actually, it's probably closer to a "downward spiral" as the feedback loop between the two serves to amplify both over time.

"Hey FGM! Still workin' that engrish I se ;)"

Ok, rude much? From the looks of it, you could use some English lessons yourself, or at least spelling...

I have to give Mrs. X full respect, because I can only speak one language, and she can speak two, or possibly more. When I meet people who have that skill, I always feel embarrassed about the lack of my own. I met a Japanese woman once who spoke Spanish and English fluently, as well as her native tounge...I was totally impressed!

lol.

Just the two, Gurgi afaik. For a Japanese person speaking English that sounds natural though, she's one of the best I've ever met.

And trust me, her slang is good enough to tear into Butters but good, except she's much better at reading the community standards than I. :D

Doesn't bother me. We are still going this September.

I'd rather be at TDR than at work !

Thank you, gurgitoy2.

I speak Japanese and English but I still can't speak English perfectly yet even though I speak to Mr X/X-san every day :(

<<I'd rather be at TDR than at work !>>

I agree! ;)

Totally! And if somebody said they would rather be at work...something is seriously wrong!
