Tokyo Disneyland

Tokyo Disneyland I'm heading to Disneyland today! I need to wake up early to meet up with Lebron and Antetokounmpo at their hotel. There we will hop on a shuttle that will take us directly to Disneyland. We arrive about an hour before it opens and start lining up at the front gate. I didn't realize how popular Disneyland is because even an hour before opening there's already a huge mass of people...

SCMagLev and Railway Park Museum I'm heading to Tokyo today! But first I have one more stop before leaving Nagoya and that's the SCMaglev and Railway Park. The railway park is a large museum detailing the history of Japanese railway history. Inside it houses trains from different generations along with train technologies over the years. Upon entering there is an impressive lobby that showcases...

Suzuka Circuit Another big reason for me to visit Nagoya is its proximity to Suzuka. Being a Formula One fan, one of my bucket list items is visiting all the tracks and Suzuka Circuit is one of them. After picking up some breakfast from a nearby convenience store, I head to the train station to head to Suzuka Circuit. Suzuka is about an hour train ride from Nagoya so with a late morning departure...

I am setting out for a trip to Asia today! Ultimately, I will end up in Japan to meet  up with Lebron and Antetokounmpo but before I get there I will spend some time in South East Asia. My first stop will be Laos. But in order to get there I have a pretty long few days of flying. It starts with a very quick hop from Vancouver to Seattle to overnight before an early morning flight to LA. I stay...

Looking back at 2024, a Minion perspective!

2024 isn't as big of a travel year as years past. This coincides with a small shift in my travel focus. At the end of 2023 I indicated that I wanted to take more trips with friends and family. I have been immensely fortunate to check off bucket list items over the years. For this year I wanted to intentionally focus on sharing experiences with others. So every trip this year, is with the...
