 Hey friends, today we are going to be traveling from New York City to Japan to visit Tokyo for the first time. I am so excited. It has always been a dream of mine to travel the world and visit Asia, and it's finally happening. I want to make a video and share all of my experiences with you, including the 14-hour direct flight, just in case you guys ever plan on visiting Japan yourself. So we're going to eat some food, discover a new country together, and have a beautiful Tokyo kind of day. Anywho's, let's go do this. I am currently in Hoboken, New Jersey, and we're going to be flying out of Newark, but I wanted to show you the city before we start making our way to the airport. Also, I want to grab some coffee. We're going to be doing the direct flight, 14 hours straight to Japan, no stops, no layovers. We're going straight to Tokyo. I'm very lucky to be going to Japan with some really great friends of mine from the Roosevelt's team. Steven, Scotty are going to be joining up with me, and we're going to have the best time ever. We're not just doing Tokyo. We're going to do Osaka. We're going to check out the cherry blossoms, and we're just going to experience everything. The culture, the food, and Disney Sea, and Tokyo Disneyland, and Universal Studios Japan. We have so many things, but today it's just about the travel. It's about getting there. I'm going to try to describe and bring you guys and show you everything I go through. Alright, I am all packed up. I got my passport. I normally travel pretty light, but this time I'm just bringing a carry-on and a backpack for my over a week trip to Japan. Only because I want to be able to bring stuff back and have the option to pick up a bag if I need to. Also, it's easier not to carry sundries with you when you go through customs, especially since I'm bald. I don't need shampoo or anything like that. I can just pick up travel-sized things once I get to Japan. Look at the view. I'm probably going to take this vlog right to where we land and check into the hotel in Tokyo. I can show you, but I got to check out of this hotel first. What a view of the city. Isn't that amazing? I can't believe we're going from New York City to Tokyo. Alright, now that we have our bags packed up, it's time to head to the airport. I want to show you around the airport a little bit because we got our seats. They're the United Premium Plus. Like I said, they're like $5,000. They have like a first-class, like a little dome that you sleep in, and those were going for like 10 grand just to go to Tokyo. But with that, you get some perks like with our Premium Plus. It's not first-class. It's not economy. It's in between. They lay down. There's only two of them, so I'm sitting next to Scotty. And it's really cozy, but you get like a skip the line pass at the security. A special little lounge that has some snacks on it before the flight. And I figured I'd show you like some of the amenities. It looks like there's not a line to actually get through security. So we're a little bit early. Well, an hour and a half early. We're supposed to get there two hours early. We're going to make our way up to the United Club. I've never been in one of these fancy clubs before. Look at this. It's like a little pre-flight lounge. You just scan your boarding pass and you get to go in. I think they have stacks. They have a buffet here. I was about to eat cereal. And they got shower suites. You can take a shower before your flight. Wow. I was not expecting a golden corral in the airport. This is pretty impressive here. And they got a lot of food. Lots of drinks too. Coca-Cola freestyle. This is all free. This is all free. I'm going to drink some milk. Right in the airport. Look at this. We got coffee cake, brand muffins. We got burritos, egg McMuffins, some bagel sandwiches. A little bit of everything. It's just grabbing though. You want an egg McMuffin? No. Look at this. Oh wow. They got more over here. Holy moly. Orange juice, apple spice oatmeal. What? We got bread. Oh, they got potatoes. Potato sausage. This is impressive. The coffee cake in the United Club is actually amazing. And I got the potatoes too. I like potatoes. I don't want to eat a lot of food because they're going to be serving food on the flight. And plus I don't want to be sitting on a 14 hour flight with a full stomach or a bad belly. Oh man, can you imagine? Can you imagine? Oh man. I don't want to imagine. Think about that. Oh God, who comes to think? Do you see that robot? Alright, you boys ready to go to Japan? I think so, yeah. We're going. Look at this. We even get a ride to the terminal. Yo, this is great. This has never happened to me before. Just driving around the airport. Hi, how are you? They see me rollin'. They hatin'. Patrollin' and tryin' to catch me ridein' dirty. This is amazing. I love this. Yo, this is the best airport ever. Yo, is this our gate right here? Wow. That is service. That is best. I already go to bed and get the first, like, three hours. This is a big plane. Twenty, twenty-two. Yeah. Oh, look at the champagne bag there. I honestly think this is the biggest plane I think I've been on. This is a big, big plane. Look at our little seat here. We got a blanket. Pillow? Pillow? What's in this bag? We'll find out. Oh, and you get nice candy. Oh, and little foot pedals. You can dim the window. You can dim the what? Oh, I see it. Wow, that's kind of cool. I like it. Look at that. You got a TV. You get to customize your experience. Fourteen hours, Scotty. I'm glad we got the foot pedal, too. I feel like I'm driving. Do you see the reclining buttons on the side? The reclining buttons? It might be on this side. Oh, oh, oh. Oh, I got to put that bad boy up. Oh, there we go. All right, this is cozy. I can do it. I like it. Time to see what's in our special little bag here. Inside the bag, you got a nice little face mask. Ooh, what else you got in here? Earplugs? Let's see. Your wellness journey starts here. I don't know what I'm looking at. It looks like a face mask. Oh, it's a toluet. Oh, that's nice. Actually, it's all in package. Look at that. A toluet, lip balm, and hand cream all together. Fancy. What else we got? Soft tissues. I feel a little back. Steve is actually on the other side of the plane. He's like another rollover. Me and Scotty, let's get this together. I think Steve is like over there. There he is. Hi, Steve. They have like a little schedule. So we depart, then meal service, lights out, light snack, lights on, meal service, and arrival. Look at that. Kind of makes it easy. I really hope the internet works on the flight. Can you imagine 14 hours without internet? That'd be rough. It'd be a rough one, but we do have the movies at least. They're free, and they just stream right there. So at least we, like, it's not like we're going to be sitting here in silence, and then we got food. So a lot of good snacks. I like on the plane, they have an interactive map, and it's cool that we're going from here, all the way across the United States, and going all the way on the other side of the world. Beef short ribs. Wow, that sounds nice. Oh, we got a little tray that pops open. It's like a transformer. Alrighty. You said there was pasta. Tortellini. This looks good. It comes with a mint chip cookie crumb cake. Oh, that tortellini looks good, too. Do you want my salad? Oh, that looks good, too. Look at that. Fancy. Honestly, this food looks pretty good, especially those potatoes there. And your tortellini looks pretty good. Got a little dinner roll, some ginger ale. Time to eat. I'm excited to try this. Trying to figure out what's on this. Like, what's that white stuff? This short rib is definitely the best food I've ever had on a flight. I love it. I think it's so good, and I love the little carrots, too. Little tiny baby carrots and a frozen dinner roll. The blanket they give you is actually from Saks Fifth Avenue, and it's a limited edition blanket. I don't know if I want to use it. Maybe I want to save it and carry it around Japan with me and then bring it back to the States as a little keepsake. Fancy. I had to take a quick bathroom break and switch over and it's something a little more comfortable because it's going to be lights out soon. This is a very nice bathroom. Lots of space. Lots of room for, like, activities. Look at this in here. A plenty of room. I can move around. I can do a 360 spin. Look at that. And of course, the toilet. I just woke up and we got some breakfast. A little bread pudding, a croissant, and we're almost there. Look at that. Only an hour to go. Fifty-eight minutes. Wow. I took a nice little nap though. Nap? I don't know. Probably about two hours. Maybe two or three hours in. That's all you need. How was your flight? It was good. Feeling good? Yeah. Alright, so rivals baggage claim. We just got off the plane and we landed in Narita International Airport. There's two airports in Tokyo. It's a lot closer to Tokyo Disneyland, but this one's a little bit cheaper. So we got to go through a health screening. We have to go through immigration. And then we got to go through customs, which all those papers on the plane we had to fill out. And then we have to hop in Uber and it's about an hour, about an hour drive. And everything transitions over. Like, so Uber just picks up the way it was. Same thing with your bank, if you call them and your cell phone. You have to switch to an international plan. And then we're going to go to the hotel and I'll show you guys around. But first we have to get through all that and I can't film it. So we'll just skip over it and I'll talk about it at the end of the video. I like that the signs are also in English too. Yo, look at that. Welcome to Japan. I think we're coming up on customs here. We just got through customs and immigration. And now we're going to grab a little taxi and actually make our way to the hotel to check in. They actually have taxis right on the outside here. Look at this. It kind of looks really nice and fancy. The airport was pretty easy. We'll talk about it later on. This feels strange. I'm used to driving on this side. Yeah. And the steering wheel is on that side. Get some breeze. Anybody need a window open? Wow, it's so nice out. The weather's beautiful. There it is. Tokyo Disney Resort. We're here. Oh, I can see it. It looks so beautiful. Yeah, we're here. That's it. Magic Kingdom's behind this. Wow, the outside looks like a palace almost. The Uber drive over to the Tokyo Disneyland Hotel was just about an hour, so it wasn't that bad. We're not going to be able to go to the parks today because we're getting in so late. And plus, I'm exhausted. I'm pretty 14 hours out of plane. It can get the best of you. So I'm going to go up. I'm going to show you the room, get all settled in, and then probably call it a night from there. This resort right out front. They have a nice little Mickey Fantasia fountain right here. And then look at the hidden Mickey in the topiary there. Isn't this so beautiful? And then here's the resort itself. It's massive. It gives me the grand Floridian vibes. So I'm going to go in and we'll give you guys a little peek-see inside the lobby there. And then up to the room. Here is the lobby. As soon as you walk in, they have some nice statues of Mickey and Minnie right here and here. The floor, like I said, it reminds me of the grand Floridian a little bit. It's got a very glorious like fountain in the center. That looks like a hidden Mickey too. The elevator, the carousel. And like I said, one of the cool things is is you can see Tokyo Disneyland from here. They have a smoking lounge inside the hotel where you can actually come and sit down in a nice little lounge and smoke cigarettes and vapes. I've never seen one inside of a hotel still. That's kind of crazy. Look at that. They have ashtrays in there. They just sit in there and smoke. And then right next to it, they have the Marceline Saloon. It's kind of like a club level. And you get to stay here if you get to go in here if you're staying in one of the suites. We're just waiting for our room to be ready. Check-in is at 4 p.m. Then we'll probably maybe go to the park for a little bit and then explore Tokyo a little bit. But I kind of want to browse around the hotel a little bit. Show you around. Give you a tour. Inside the Marceline Saloon, they have some light refreshments but they have tons of pictures of Walt and Roy when they made their way back to Marceline. Look at this. This is in Marceline, Missouri, Walt and Roy's hometown. And me and Sean, my friend Sean actually visited there. I remember seeing that picture. Look at this. And then like I said, they have light snacks. Kind of like a club level. Oh man, I love it in here. And you get some gummy bears over here. A chocolate Daisy Duck Marshmallow or Mickey one. Chocolate cold coins. A lot of really cool things. Oh, I want to take that with me. And then red wine. Oh, white wine. Ice coffee, iced tea, orange juice, apple juice. It's a very cozy area. I think it's sit here and stare out at all the people going in and out of Disneyland. We're using a translation app. For the 5000, it's orange juice, apple juice, scrambled eggs, plain omelet. Oh, this is the menu for breakfast on Tuesday? Yeah, the 3000. I can't even plan like five minutes in front of me. It's a little long Tuesday. We'll go and we should go to the 5000 because that's the 5000 for child. Yeah, let's do the five. We'll do the 5000. Yeah, there you go. Okay, what else you got on there? The school lens. The translate app helps a lot. Scrambled eggs or plain omelet? Scrambled eggs for me. I just want some French toast. Okay. I need the bread containers. Lots of French. What is that from? I know that. We kind of joined up on our vacation package and I'll show you all of the vouchers. But now we have to set up our breakfast reservation. For a morning. It is French toast. Look at this. I can't wait to see this room. It is Mickey talking. We just got up to the room and I'm going to give you a quick room tour and this is the Magic Kingdom suite. And I'm excited. I think we did make a mistake and booked one room for three people instead of three rooms. So we have to figure out another room eventually. But this is just really nice. We can all stay here actually. As soon as you walk in they have a nice picture of Mickey and Minnie right here. And then look at this. Look at this entrance way. A beautiful mirror. Nice little closet. Some slippers. We all need some slippers. I love that. All of that. Another bathroom over here. Very, very nice. I like all of it in here. Yo, what's up with that toilet? I don't... Oh, this is interesting. This is really interesting. I don't know what I'm doing. I don't know what's going on in here. Ah! Is that an instruction manual? Well, it's a sanitary bag. Oh, it's a nice little bathroom. Yeah. Then they got some tea here. Look at that. I'm assuming a little mini fridge. Now look at this little... Look at this little living room. Look at this. They have a little tea set out here. And look at the view. You can see Cinderella Castle. Space mountain. You can see everything in here. Wow. This is an amazing room here. Look at that out there. Over here you have the main bedroom. A little work area. Some shirts. A nice little day bed. I like this day bed. Look at this in here. It'll be a night bed later. It'll be a night bed later. I can't wait to see what these pajamas look like on me. They're medium though. They're large. Oh! Oh, you get pants? Pants? Yo, this is so cozy. Look at this. This is the Grand Fleurin. This is like the Dell right here in San Diego. This is so cool. I love everything in here. And you can hear the music from the whole... from the park, from the room. Look at this bathroom in here. Holy moly. There's a heart shaped tub. Beautiful little tile work. A nice little shower. And look at the amenities. Look at this. I love this. That is too cool. All of it. Even these little cups. Is there a TV in the mirror? I'm definitely going to take home some of these little vanity kits. Amenity kit. Vanity kits. I don't know if this is all molten brown shampoo. See, this is why I didn't pack anything. I got all the good stuff right here. Literally. That's top notch stuff. And I still got to figure out what this remote's for. Like I feel like there's a TV in here somewhere. I just don't... I found it. It's in here. It's in the jacuzzi. I'm definitely getting in that later. I just thought somebody was talking to me, but the TV just turned on. I ended up getting a vacation package. And it comes with a lot of stuff. Like it's pretty amazing. Here I don't think you can buy tickets day off. Like you have to pre-book things. And that's even with your lightning lanes too. Like not lightning lanes, your attractions. They actually give you kind of like an artillery. And here are our park tickets. And then here are... Looks like these are goods vouchers. A mixture of beverages. And then these are attraction tickets. So this gets you at like each one of these or like a lightning lane. I'll try to show you. Actually I'm going to move the camera so I can show you. So like for instance on... It looks like March 17th. We can go ride the Tower of Terror. I don't know if it says a time. It doesn't have a time just any day. We can literally just go show these and skip the line I think. And they even have the happy ride with the Baymax. I've been wanting to ride that. It's a very popular ride over here. Like kind of alien swirling saucer. What else do I got here? So many things. It's very difficult trying to figure out what you're supposed to do with certain things only because I'm used to the way that Disney and Walt Disney World and Disneyland does things. But I kind of like this. It looks nice. Tokyo Disney Vacation Packages. Now that we're all checked into the hotel we're not going to start the Disney days until tomorrow. Now we're going to head out and explore a little bit of Tokyo and maybe get something to eat. You know, kind of just like go around and explore. It's a very big city and I'm excited. I'm excited to try some of the food. I want to go to a 7-Eleven. I want to go to a Lawson. I want to explore the back alleys a little bit but just a little bit tonight because we just got here and got off a 14 hour flight. So I'm starting to feel a little bit but I'm trying to force myself to stay awake so I can get on the time schedule appropriately. It's as shocking as it is. One of the things I've wanted to do since I knew I was coming to Tokyo was come to a 7-Eleven. Just because they have so many unique things. Like look at all this food in here. We're looking at it like they just have chicken breast. You just get a salad chicken with herbs and then what else they have? They have like so many unique things. What do you got there? What is that? Is that paste? It says soft and easy to use. Soft and easy to use. I want something else. Maybe like some sausages. Daddy would you like some sausage? I have a question. What about this nice seasoned piece of chicken? I looked at that one already. I thought about this one is beef with burdock. Beef with burdock. Beef with burdock. Yeah. It's very interesting. They have spaghetti and pasta. This is a 7-Eleven. Look at this. All the food in here. And all the drinks. They even have monsters but the cans are smaller. Which is good. And the yen. 213. Very interesting being in this 7-Eleven for the first time in Tokyo. It's a completely different experience. The buildings here are so big. It's almost like we're in New York City I feel like. That's not the building you were talking about before right? That's pretty impressive. So are we going to where are we going Golden Boy? Golden Boy. Let's go to Golden Boy. This is Golden Guy. Oh Golden Guy? Oh. Golden Guy. Should we go? Golden Boy. Stay Golden Pony Boy. Pony Boy. You know it. We're just exploring around the different alleyways. Look at this down here. Trying to find anything that's kind of standing out to us. They have a lot of different bars. Honestly it's just like picking one. There's a desert inn. Where is that? Right there in front of us. Yeah desert inn right there. And a ghetto sun Troy. Look at these bars. I know right? I like that Coca Cola sign. The area that we are at is called Golden Guy. And it's a bunch of little shops, bars and local eateries. And yeah we're just going to roam around and you know find places that we think are interesting. Not a long night because we had that 14 hour flight. So it's probably going to be a short night and then we're going to go home and call it a night. Hair of the dog. You said that before didn't you? Cigarettes, art and... Plink. Oh punk. Plink. I don't know what's up there. Alley nuts. I'm going to hole in the wall. Name? Name? Golden Dust. Yay! Thank you. What? Thank you. Good pour too. Great pour. Thank you. Super dry. Yay! This is crazy guys. We're doing it. This is my new favorite bar. I love this bar. It's literally the hole in the wall. It's like a street of small bars. This is the smallest. Oh wow. Here we go. I'm probably not going to have any of this food. Let's roll up. Some bean sprouts? Here. I think we're going to get one more drink or one more stop here at dinner. Five gallons. A lot of these places are really funny because it's kind of like a steep climb. The ceiling right there. Interesting right? Woof. Just a tip? Oh yeah. Just a little tip of the head there. The biggest lion deer. Oh my god. What am I doing? Oh. I'll take that. Look at these guys in there. Oh boy. Come by. Come by. Oh it is good. It's honestly like fireball. Right? But even better. I don't believe I just drank that. I think I'm calling it quits here. I'm pretty tired. We're going to pick it up tomorrow because guess what? We're going to Tokyo Disneyland. I am so excited. I hope you guys enjoyed this video. I like making little travel vlogs sometimes when I go to some places nice because that's one of my biggest concerns is the travel. I'm very just go with the flow of things but I like to kind of make videos and document it. I don't know. It's kind of fun. Maybe I'll do a couple more travel videos in the future. So I hope you enjoyed the video. I enjoyed making it. And we're Japan. I'll see you guys at Disneyland tomorrow. Bye. I feel confident. I figured out how to use the toilet. First of all, you have to use your hand to open it. And then you can do this one too. Open that one. It's totally heated. That back there is the flusher I think unless this one is. That's the flusher right here. And then I think this is the bidet. You hit that button. You turn that over. And it's all good to go. That's pretty fancy. And then when you're done, you just hit the button. And then it shuts automatically. Tell me that's not the coolest toilet ever. I love this.
