Space World

Yes, Japan has American amusement parks. Disney is in Tokyo and Universal Studios is in Osaka, but we decided to try an original Japanese amusement park. Space World is like a mini-cedar point with a space theme. We went on the Tuesday of Golden Week with the theory that the local kids have school Tuesday and Wednesday so hopefully park attendance would be down. We were somewhat correct. There were very few kids on vacation with there families, however many schools were having field trips there.



The staff asked us to go in front of the school kids, so we were the second people to enter the park!!!

Check out all the kids sitting with there classes waiting for the gates to open.

Here we are with parks mascots Twinkle Lucky and Twinkle Vicky.

The lines were the shortest I have ever seen at an amusement park.

Nate and I were the first to ride the “Zaturn”. Cedar point calls it “Top Fuel Dragster”.




Wheeee....





The kids all had to where there school uniforms. I saw one kid getting harassed by his friends because his tie wasn’t straight. It is hard to imagine going to a park in a suit and tie.







Many times during the day the school kids wanted to try out there English skills. It was like being a celebrity. The kids didn’t mind.

Check out the big mechanical animals. For a buck you get to drive them around. I know they are kind of creepy.
