Tokyo Joypolis
A friend of mine celebrated their birthday in mid January. We decided to enjoy Joypolis -- an indoor amusement park located in Odaiba, Tokyo, because on your birthday, you get free admission! ^_^ The park is located across from the famous Fuji Television headquarters, in Odaiba, a man made island off the coast of Tokyo. Access is quite easy; my friend and I took a bus from YCAT at Yokohama station directly to the place. Cost? ¥800. ($8) Odaiba is a favorite "date" location because of the numerous attractions there: Madame Tussauds is coming in Feb. 2013 and Lego Discovery recently opened last Sept. Joypolis, a Sega amusement hall, has 3 floors consisting of many interactive rides. From bobsled runs, Hummer drives, zombie shooting, and snowboarding, to an actual indoor roller coaster, the park has a lot of offer. I'll share my favorites: 1) Storm G - a virtual bodsled ride in which the riders control the speed and steering. Bonus? You can do 360 barrel rolls! I lov...
