Friday I ventured to Universal Studios in Osaka where we were blasted with happy halloween cheer at every moment. Already. In Japan. I know...
The entry boulevard
Elmo is a pumpkin head wizard for Halloween
The central gardens
The park has an old movie style atmosphere
Mel's Drive in Diner
The town centre
A typical 60 minute wait for the SpiderMan attraction.
It was good, though.
The set from the WaterWorld attraction.
Remember that blockbuster? Uh...
Just stick a pumpkin in it and call it Halloween Lunch
The spider girls - some wacky costumes
Elmo makes an appearance in his "pumpkin-style coach"
Look! A pumpkin farmer
Big bird and Ernie get in on the act
Skeletons on wheels
Cute candy dancers
And who could forget Hello Kitty!
Halloween Hello Kitty
Watch it here.
Altogether now: happy, happy, happy halloween!
For dinner, we chose a place called the Bubba Gump Shrimp Company.
It's a franchise seafood eatery based on the movie Forrest Gump.
The plastic food on display in the window. Hmm, what to choose?
Mama always says ...
The drinks menu on a table tennis bat
Good company!
One day, 5 attractions, lunch, a parade, dinner - a pretty good day at USJ.
Until happy halloween,
Monica
The whole building was prepared...
...even the elevator
The kidlets made trick-or-treat bags...
...and rotated through a range of activities
I was stationed at the marshmallow race
Then they went on a trick-or-treat hunt
I want candy
Trick or treat?
Scary gummy candy
Group shot. Aww, too cute.
Almost everyone!
Us
Me, vampire Adrian and angel Jing
Me and Ali - with swine flu, ha ha
Michy snuck in with pumpkin pie for everyone
The best of American women in fall!
