“Reach for the Stars” brings Disney “characters to life as they soar through the night sky in pursuit of their dreams.” Tokyo Disney Resort released this description:

Beyond the distant sky,
There was a sparkling castle above the clouds.
It’s a dream-like place where many stories dwell.
Now, let yourself be carried by the winds of freedom,
Spread the wings of imagination,
And let’s soar to the world of dreams!
Reach for the Stars!

  1. Could you please start titling articles with the park name or location, like you do with “Breaking:”…..or “Rumor:”….and even do “Daily Recap:” before the listing of article names from the day? It would help us readers. So, something like Disneyland Paris, Hong Kong, Tokyo, Shanghai, Magic Kingdom, etc., would be clear from the start. Thanks for considering.
