Still thinking about Disney & Japan, one of my favourite memories from our trip in October 2019 to the Tokyo Disney Resort is my morning run.
Each of the 5 mornings we were staying at the Sheraton Grande Tokyo Bay Hotel, an official Resort Hotel, I ran around the bay exploring the different nooks & cranies, always ending up at the JR Mahaima Station/Resort Gateway.
There were several eateries there which served up breakfast, but my favourite place was New Days, a conbi store (convenience store, very much like 7Eleven) which had everything from onigiri to pasta to yogurt to sandwiches to pastries to fruit; and of course, a range of coffees and teas that could cross your eyes. Everything and anything one would want for breakfast.
Lead Photo is the entrance of Bon Voyage, the Disney store near the JR station at the Resort Gateway. All these were taken on my morning run, before the crowds have descended.

All things bright and beautiful 
So much to see! No wonder you enjoyed your run.

Indeed there are many diversions. What is lovely are lots of long, scenic roads around the resort.

Sounds like a fabulous vacation. We went to the Florida Disney World a few years ago. It was quite the experience. All I can remember is that it was so unbelievably hot and humid. And we went in mid-October no less.
Mr. Ken and I would like to go back around Christmastime since the decorations are supposed to be fabulous. Although, I think that trip is still a few years way, given the Covid situation.

We visited the Florida parks decades ago – in the summer!!!!! Very hot & humid. I guess the weather is still very warm in October!
I remember (as a young adult) that the parks were immense and in retrospect, remember only feelings and impressions from our 1-week stay. Too many rides & shows in too many days!
But we do love our Disney vacations! Christmas time is filled with ambience and we love the vibe at that time of year.
Maybe when travel is possible again, you could consider venturing to Disney in Tokyo or Hong Kong or Shanghai?

love these fun photos of this famous themepark
– d it is amazing how quiet it is on the early mornings
also – the combi store sounds interesting – and to compare it with 7-11 stood out to me because i head the US 7-11’s chain is owned by Japan and second, even tho 7-11 offers food some would say it is some of the worst food ever – but maybe the 7-11s vary place to place

The 7Elevens in Japan are super good! We tried all the various convenience stores there, and they were all a little different, but excellent still.

7Elevens in Singapore are not great either. I think this is Japan-specific.
