0:27
looking closely there is a lizard right
0:29
here on the market street signage
0:32
it is 8 59 a.m precisely well
0:36
possibly i didn't mean to say precisely
0:37
but possibly
0:39
in one minute at 9am maybe the fountain
0:41
will become effervescent
0:48
possibly
0:48
and with every adventure i don't really
0:50
know where this is going to lead well
0:51
every there's some some adventures i
0:52
know where it's going to be today i
0:54
don't know where it's going to lead
0:55

1:11
real toasty when you see the the sun
1:12
beaming off this glass i love these
1:14
clocks they have down here
1:19
and i was just informed by a local
1:19
gentleman that they built this tower
1:21
that way they could
1:22
try to sell
1:24
and show off to some of the future
1:26
residents when they built celebration
1:29
this gentleman that's heading over to
1:31
the marketplace now
1:34
got a little information from
1:38
from him
1:38
i've been up on that tower a couple
1:39
times but they've now put a sign up you
1:41
used to be able to go up there but now
1:42
they don't let anybody up there which is
1:44
strange yeah until recently these signs
1:47
were not here no one capital p permitted
1:51
on stairs there's another sign
1:53
up there as well so you can't go up
1:54
there anymore you should be able to walk
1:56
up there and get like a little bird's
1:57
eye
1:58
down market and i have acquired a piping
2:00
hot caffeinated beverage
2:04
quick little segue now over
2:06
to the community very quaint community
2:09
of windermere as traffic goes by
2:11

2:21
no rhyme or reason what we're going to
2:23

2:24
but there's something here in windermere
2:25
i wanted to check out and you go they
2:27
have a pretty nice little downtown yeah
2:30

2:32

2:34
the wind blows we might end up going to
2:36
downtown orlando as well
2:41
the 1890s
2:41

2:43

3:19
give a book take a book portable
3:20
libraries out front and this is a local
3:23
historic building as stated on the front
3:25
here and micah was noticing here where
3:27
it states that they wanted people to
3:29
escape the harsh
3:31
northern winters
3:32
they should have put a little footnote
3:34
on there that there are harsh southern
3:36
summers here
3:38
because it's no joke here it's hot
3:40
now for a while that building over there
3:42
used to be the town hall where i was
3:43
just standing at but this is the current
3:46
town hall built a few years later but
3:48
definitely seen some years and has a
3:50
kind of a
3:51
vintage quality to it
3:54
as well
3:55
and i love the pavement here with the
3:56
bricks not cobblestone but the brick
3:58
streets
3:59
gotta love some brick roads okay we've
4:01
been walking a little bit onto some dirt
4:03
roads forest street is what the side
4:05
that says there foreign forest
4:08
and
4:09
seventh
4:11
i really like these houses through here
4:14
and the trees
4:20
and there it is over there and then
4:20
we're going to walk up
4:21
and there is a little information here
4:25
states here that they would educate 22
4:28
pupils mrs adams was the teacher
4:31
and it is accessible you can walk right

4:47
whole state of florida
4:57
it was in orange county california and
4:57

5:01
the seats which are basically just
5:02
orange citrus crates
5:05
and the teachers desk
5:12
little little house on the prairie vibes
5:12
for sure
5:13
and the outhouse around the back
5:17
how cool is that
5:23
so you have to raise your hand and say i
5:23
need to go use the facilities
5:25
you'd walk out here
5:28
down this little gravel
5:30
area this course is gravel probably
5:31
wasn't there then
5:33
pretty good ways away from the main
5:34
building yeah
5:36
this tree is cool i bet that tree was
5:38
here back and then oh yeah seen some
5:40
years
5:46
oh there's the bell
5:54

5:54
trees through here
5:56

6:02
mobile
6:02
heading to downtown orlando just stop by
6:05
the library
6:22
all right we found parking down here now
6:22
this is the old orange county courthouse
6:25
which is now a history museum might pop
6:27
in there as well
6:29
and libraries up on this corner not this
6:31
building but the next one also mica and
6:34
i went on and booked a reservation for
6:37
guardians of the galaxy at was it 3 p.m
6:39
or 4 p.m 3 p.m 3 p.m you'll be your
6:42
first time on guardians and from here
6:44
you can see the geyser-esque fountain at
6:46
lake eola
6:55
epcot center a little bit later now
6:55
because i am an osceola county resident
6:57
and this is the orange county library to
7:00
get a library card they charge 125
7:03
a year kind of take a look at these
7:05
murals here
7:06
it's like a pony express guy up there
7:09
pyramids
7:12
this worker iron worker placing this
7:14
pole in the ground this guy's up on a
7:16
power pole as well working on some
7:18
electrical wires the telephone
7:22
there's also the bus
7:24
bus route through here as well
7:27
yeah got the
7:28
rotary dial and then you got the the
7:30
keypad touch here
7:33
satellite dish
7:41
and the satellite up top i guess i
7:41
should have checked to see if on sundays
7:43
the history center is open you think the
7:45
history center's open today
7:48
it might not be open because the sun
7:50
the library is open today from 11 to 6
7:52
but i don't know if the orlando public
7:55
library but the history museum
7:57
we'll go over there after the library oh
7:59
classic
8:01
car alert we just realized the library
8:03
does not open until one
8:05
so this might conflict we're gonna do
8:06
some bunch of other stuff today too so
8:08
we might not have a library day to
8:10
day were thinking the library opened at
8:13
11. yeah i thought she said 11 to 6.
8:15
this one this one goes to 11.
8:18
okay we're just going to wander around
8:19
downtown it's 11 30
8:22
currently so maybe we'll pop back in
8:24
we'll see we'll just kind of there's no
8:25
real rhyme or reason today so we're just
8:27
gonna
8:28
just go with the flow this is the orange
8:30
county regional history center also the
8:32
little scooters are kind of everywhere
8:34
around here
8:36
doesn't look like anyone's going inside
8:38
there so probably not going to be open
8:39
on sunday oh there's some fish there's
8:41
some aquatic life
8:46
on this globe all right this could work
8:46
out pretty well because it opens at noon
8:49
we just checked the front of the door
8:51
so this opens at noon
8:53
library opens at one and then we have to
8:56
be at epcot
8:57
with commuting
8:59
by three this could actually work out
9:01
pretty well that's pretty neat the
9:03
illuminated fountain on lake ivanhoe i
9:05
never knew about that
9:08
the city beautiful orlando which is the
9:09
nickname of orlando is city beautiful
9:11
and a place called celery city up there
9:13
and i always have to go over here and
9:15
say hello to this gator riding cowboy
9:19
well he's got a cowboy hat i don't know
9:20
if he's a cowboy but this alligator
9:22
sculpture was created by craig t ussler
9:26
got the gator there
9:28
and he got this he's got like the eye of
9:29
the not the eye of the tiger but the eye
9:31
of the
9:33
the crocodile gator alligator i think
9:35
it's a gator yeah judging by the nose
9:37
there's also a couple other ones there's
9:38
one here and one over here they're not
9:40
real gators do not be alarmed you're not
9:42
be startled i have a lot of memories
9:43
down here from going to a lot of punk
9:45
rock shows and playing in a band
9:47
packed across the street is the beach
9:49
and theater and then next to that used
9:51
to be the downtown jazz and blues club
9:53
the social this used to be a subway
9:55
where i go and get a snack sometimes
9:56
between
9:57
you know before concerts and after it's
9:59
like a jukebox here this is i think this
10:01
is called wall street now where the sub
10:04
place was back in the 90s i would come
10:05
over here and get get food
10:08
located inside this door
10:10
it used to be the
10:11
anja built hotel located at 37 north
10:14
avenue now this is kind of interesting
10:16
this place used to be called barbarella
10:18
then they changed the name for years and
10:20
years and years and years and years and
10:21
very recently like a year ago
10:24
they changed the name back to its
10:25
old-timey name barbarella
10:28
but now it's back and now called the
10:30
corner so barbarella again
10:33
has been a race from existence next to
10:34
64. north which used to be barbecue bar
10:37
64 north and then the social which i
10:39
played many concerts at you said you
10:41
played at the social once too in a band
10:43
yeah yeah that's cool both you and
10:45
myself graced the stage yep inside the
10:48
social remember parking in the little
10:50
alley around the back and it took
10:51
forever to back that trailer in
10:54
it's a talent that most it backing a
10:56
trailer in is quite the talent i usually
10:58
the one to do for other bands too i was
11:00
just informed by one of the business
11:02
owners over there next to the hot dog
11:04
cart place
11:05
that this
11:06
parking down on a sunday is no longer
11:08
free down here anymore so this is
11:10
something that just happened
11:12
so you can see a lot of the officers are
11:13
now giving tickets to everyone walking
11:16
through here
11:17
no more free parking in downtown orlando
11:18
on a sunday all right and micah
11:20
recommends this place called gringos
11:22
locos which has orlando's best
11:25
taco and i do love talk oh look at that
11:28
bug going by i only missed it for just a
11:29
second there was a vw volkswagen bus i
11:31
ended up having something called a drunk
11:33
gringo which is basically a burrito with
11:36
everything everything but the kitchen
11:38
sink is on this thing the drunk
11:41
gringo and if you're wondering what that
11:43
noise was
11:44
that was micah throwing away something
11:47
in this garbage can i thought it was
11:49
gonna be it's empty yeah nothing to stop
11:52
the sound all right into the history
11:55
center now
11:57
we go
11:59
okay here is the guy on the gator that's
12:01
out front it was a real person
12:03
look at this right here
12:05
taken in 1885 just two blocks from the
12:07
history center often called off the
12:10
gator wrestler the man was identified as
12:12
bunk
12:13
baxter
12:14
oh bunk
12:16
oh bunk baxter
12:17
cost of admission was eight dollars per
12:20
person
12:21
when you walk in it's multiple levels
12:23
check this over here these bears these
12:24
polar bears
12:26
bill bayer
12:28
probably a play on words with his last
12:30
name but he had
12:32
in his mall the altamonte mall shoppers
12:34
which shop at his store and he had his
12:37
bears last time
12:39
you could squeeze in there let's try
12:41
squeezing in there oh
12:43
yeah
12:44
here we are the mercury
12:47
capsule but
12:49
dude everything works it
12:51
it works
12:53
getting some adams family vibes a little
12:55
bit in some uh
12:57
norway
12:58
oh yeah little epcot norway since we're
13:01
going to epcot it's like fresh on your
13:02
mind that's right
13:05
maelstrom okay now making our way into
13:07
the
13:08
courtroom here
13:10
has the public entrance now last time i
13:12
was here a few years ago
13:13
there was a carving an inscription
13:16
you can't even get over there anymore
13:19
they have it stanchioned off
13:25
you're not allowed to walk over there
13:25
anymore interesting
13:27
they've got it blocked off oh wow
13:29
well this sign over here says
13:40
where is it at it's right here it was on
13:40
the corner oh it's right there
13:42
so supposedly bundy's signature
13:44
is down there because he was tried in
13:46
this courtroom trying to zoom in on it
13:49
but
13:50
it does say ted
13:56
they used to have it covered up with a
13:56
clear piece of plastic
13:59
but now you can't go over there so they
14:00
uncovered it aha
14:02
okay
14:03
it was the building annex adjacent to
14:06
this building in 1978 this carving
14:10
is not his
14:11
however look at this
14:13
this is fascinating this is a this is
14:15
courtroom b in 1960.
14:17
look at this
14:18
so that's what it looked like then
14:20
this
14:21
is what it looks like
14:23
current day 2022. and into the room
14:26
about theme parks building a kingdom
14:31
and it's not just disney stuff in here
14:32
we have universal sea world and
14:34
cypress gardens now what if this clock
14:37
said 1004 what would that signify
14:39
lightning striking the clock tower
14:42
and sending you back to 1985 is that the
14:45
correct time is it always five minutes
14:46
to noon i don't even think that's right
14:48
what time is it exactly 12 33 so that
14:51
clock is incorrect oh i believe down in
14:54
here so you got downtown there you got
14:56
the planes flying out of orlando
14:58
international and all over there is a
15:00
gator head down there which signifies
15:03
gatorland you got shamu down there that
15:05
signifies sea world you got the globe
15:08
for universal studios
15:10
right there and also blizzard beach you
15:13
got the hollywood tower you got the tree
15:15
of life you got spaceship earth you got
15:17
cinderella castle you also have the
15:19
earful tower you do not see
15:22
a lot of earful tower references anymore
15:24
as they removed it from the old mgm
15:25
studios now hollywood studios but check
15:27
that out right next to the sphere of
15:29
epcot center the earful tower and way
15:33
over there the claremont
15:35
citrus tower with some of the postcards
15:38
and photographs of the good old days
15:40
up there a lot of beach life and whatnot
15:43
there's my
15:45
my reflection in the mirror thankfully
15:47
i'm not a vampire so you can see me if i
15:49
was a vampire you would not be able to
15:50
see me cypress gardens
15:52
one of the first ever themed
15:55
attractions here in town which is now
15:57
legoland legoland took over the property
16:00
of cypress gardens
16:03
look at this tree right here
16:05
and wigwam village which is now gone
16:09
back over here to this little model if
16:10
you push this button it illuminates
16:13
what what is i4
16:15
going across there and i did show this
16:17
earlier but we were just discussing this
16:20
and i mentioned this in my videos before
16:21
when i was out in hollywood this globe
16:24
is my is the one that used to be at
16:25
universal florida
16:27
micah just reminded me that it was moved
16:29
out to california so if you're ever at
16:30
universal hollywood it's the old globe
16:33
from like the 90s
16:34
that was moved i see any pictures in
16:36
front of the globe at universal orlando
16:38
that is the one that's now sitting in
16:39
front of us versus hollywood
16:42
look at this next to the bells factory
16:43
outlet sign is almost like a little
16:45
circular tubing area
16:48
with a bunch of people rafting
16:50
down there yeah what is that supposed to
16:52
be water main it went wild wet and wild
16:54
that's probably wet supposed to
16:56
symbolize wet and wild right next to sea
16:58
world makes total sense yeah okay so we
16:59
got a little wet and wild edge yeah
17:01
that's all international there yeah
17:05
and then yeah yeah universal's over
17:06
there on the other side of international
17:08
drive oh look that's supposed to be
17:10
wonder works the upside down building of
17:11
wonder works next to shamu oh yeah it is
17:15
that's the so this like completely
17:17
upside down the roofs for the bottom and
17:19
the yeah the root system of the grass is
17:21
the roof also how many shampoos have
17:23
there been like 14 oh my gosh i'm sure
17:26
probably at least at least a baker's
17:28
dozen so if you ever want to see the
17:30
earful tower you know you just have to
17:32
show up to this museum earful tower
17:34
remember where they said they're going
17:35
to move the earful tower from studios
17:37
over to disney springs yeah
17:40
didn't happen nope they got our hopes up
17:42
i wish it did so now all you got to do
17:44
is just show up here to this little
17:45
museum and that's really the only place
17:47
you can see the earful tower except one
17:49
little secret spot up on the marquee
17:52
at hollywood studios right at the corner
17:55
of hollywood and vine that's it
17:58
for now secrets
18:00
all right this is really fascinating in
18:03
1905 h.h dixon created dixon's folly as
18:07
an experiment next to his store he laid
18:10
track on lakeview avenue
18:12
cars coming the opposite
18:13
opposite sides will meet in the middle
18:14
we have to back up his brilliant idea to
18:17
not get stuck in the mud
18:20
was this track
18:22
right here
18:23
known as dixon's folly this is a little
18:26
remnant of it right there i really do
18:28
love the theming through here so you got
18:29
a fireplace down here
18:31
you got the old bed here and this item
18:34
is on top of the beds to keep the
18:35
mosquitoes
18:37
and they're pumping in sounds of bugs
18:39
and crickets
18:40
outside to give the effect what it's
18:42
like to be
18:43
in florida
18:44
on a summer night
18:46
so this is a spinning wheel
18:48
circa 1700
18:50
used to make thread
18:52
okay they are making cane candy i
18:54
thought maybe they were like doing like
18:55
a like tugging rope or something but no
18:57
it's like cane candy
19:00
that's very interesting yeah and taffy
19:02
too
19:03
yeah taffy that's the word i'm looking
19:05
for
19:06
now they do have exhibits that change
19:08
out occasionally up on the second floor
19:10
and this one will be coming in about a
19:12
month or so they're setting up for it
19:13
now wasn't able to go up there but it's
19:15
going to be dedicated to music in the
19:17
orlando area from 85 to 2001 which i
19:20
went to a lot of the shows that are
19:21
listed up there
19:22
red cross saw them open up for radiohead
19:24
and writ law saw them at the edge
19:25
fishbone saw that with no effects at
19:28
visage
19:29
fugazi played across the street at the
19:31
theater next to the social
19:33
belly oh there's the belly in radiohead
19:36
so it was red cross belly and radiohead
19:38
yeah there's the flyer right there belly
19:40
and radio head that was a visage
19:43
10 bucks i was at that show
19:46
long time ago toasters i saw the
19:50
toasters across at barbarella was
19:51
murphy's law of the toasters that might
19:53
be the flyer from that
19:56
this is pretty interesting unwritten law
19:57
with sprung monkey both san diego bands
20:01
toured together a lot of course blink
20:03
also was the other one so you got blink
20:04
sprung monkey on rent logs always tour
20:06
together
20:07
i can't tell if it said blink is on
20:08
there but
20:09
yeah sprung monkey actually stated that
20:12
my friend rob and i and we were
20:14
roommates
20:15
they stayed at our house
20:17
of course that was a long long time ago
20:18
it was in mid-90s
20:20
there's also the good times tour which
20:22
was sprung monkey blink
20:24
seven seconds and then written law i
20:26
think that was what it was
20:28
much of that show over in melbourne too
20:30
all right i have now paid the 125
20:32
dollars everything is ready to go and i
20:34
am now a proud member of the orange
20:35
county library system even though i live
20:37
in osceola county that's why i pay the
20:39
125 dollars the thing that's awesome is
20:42
i am allowed to check out
20:45
a massive amount of books for the first
20:47
two weeks ten members but after i have
20:49
my library card for two weeks a hundred
20:52
books every two weeks and we've been in
20:54
here for a while i'm not going to show
20:56
everything i'm kind of feasting my eyes
20:58
on but because we are going to epcot i
21:00
do want to show one or two things i have
21:02
never in my entire life seen
21:05
look at this the evolution of epcot
21:07
center keepsake edition
21:09
this is from october 24th
21:12
1982.
21:14
micah have you ever seen this photo
21:16
before nope
21:19
opening day on october 1st these guys on
21:22
the roof
21:23
yes
21:27
i'm starting to have a love affair with
21:27
libraries
21:28
yeah yeah and i have to agree i'm pretty
21:31
glad that epcot is here now usually you
21:33
know this time of the talk back and then
21:35
in the early 80s epcot was all capitals
21:38
but here it's all lowercase
21:40
that's true
21:41
and since we're both aps and have been
21:43
for a while it's very interesting to see
21:45
back in the early 80s what the not only
21:47
ticket price was but also
21:49
an annual pass price
21:52
for an adult
21:53
a hundred
21:55
dollars take my money
21:57
and that was the glory days of epcot
21:59
center
22:00
also future world is a thing of the past
22:03
i didn't mean to say it in that fashion
22:06
the future being the past but there is
22:07
no future world anymore
22:10
look at this i don't think i've ever
22:11
seen that photo of the rainbow tunnel
22:13
i've seen the one with the dream finder
22:14
in front of it and michael jackson in
22:16
front of it but never guess like that
22:20
my recollection and some sentiments ring
22:22
true today
22:24
it was true and thin and it's true
22:27
true now yeah also the old sea world
22:29
entrance the one from jaws three that
22:31
they tore down another new entrance
22:33
but you're not even allowed to smoke in
22:34
the parks anymore look at this lighter
22:36
they used to sell i'm not a smoker i
22:38
hold that letter that's like is that
22:40
called zippo right yeah
22:46
okay i left the fourth floor down on the
22:46
third floor now it turns out that you
22:47
cannot take home any of the disney
22:49
archive books even though a lot of them
22:51
look very similar to this you gotta go
22:53
to the third floor to find
22:55
items and i found this one here
22:57
this book about eisner
23:00
i always like eisner i'm gonna read up
23:01
and learn a little bit more about the
23:02
man himself
23:04
the remaking of disney
23:06
i'm gonna check this out i do know a lot
23:08
about back to the future
23:10
secrets that making it back to the
23:11
future i actually own this yeah it's a
23:13
good book i don't have this one though
23:15
no
23:16
what the making though
23:21
that's pretty cool the hoverboard scene
23:21
in here
23:23
there's huey lewis there
23:25
some of the original poster artwork
23:32
and they also have dvds and things like
23:32
that you can rent out
23:33
see what kind of selection they have and
23:36
you also check out down here on the
23:37
bottom floor yeah here's the dvds
23:40
i will say free rentals but they are
23:42
included in with your
23:44
library card
23:46
frozen tube over here but then also
23:48
some of the classic the horse and the
23:50
gray flannel suit kurt russell that's a
23:53
deep cut and these right here the
23:55
treasures oh the hardy boys yeah the
23:57
whole
23:58
collection right there do you have some
23:59
some old gold stuff here yeah
24:02
yeah i know in a world of streaming it's
24:04
this is kind of gone by the the wayside
24:06
but i do like physical media and hard
24:08
copy stuff i have a lot of blu-rays and
24:10
dvds and i have a few vhs but not too
24:12
many
24:13
i love this movie too eternal sunshine
24:17
so i'll probably at some point oh
24:18
rushmore
24:19
one of my favorite wes andersons and if
24:21
you want to rent out or check out i
24:23
should say
24:24
music on cds
24:27
they have music on cds so here are a lot
24:30
of different rows
24:31
of music it's pretty amazing in the day
24:33
of you know everything is digital you
24:35
can find a lot of this stuff
24:37
with a quick little search
24:39
you know with all the music sites and
24:41
stuff but there are still cds out there
24:44
flogging molly there
24:51
even in a complete array of
24:51
blank 182 stuff you got dude ranch there
24:54
that's pre travis barker yep and the
24:57
first thing i did when
24:58
scanned my books
25:00
i reached for my wallet and pulled out
25:02
my car my credit card i went to pay
25:04
gotta say it's pretty nice to just have
25:06
a one-time fee
25:08
and be done with it just show the card
25:09
anytime i go in and out of there
25:11
i can walk out with something yeah and
25:13
these aren't due back to like the 29th
25:15
so i'll be able to read both of these
25:17
now there's also a library in
25:18
celebration town i live in
25:20
and i might get a library card there
25:22
well as well too but this one seems a
25:23
lot more massive it seems to be a lot
25:26
bigger selection of the disney archives
25:27
like i was talking about i just gotta
25:29
remember next time
25:30
like a lot of them i can't leave i gotta
25:32
just i gotta sit at the desk and kind of
25:34
read the the massive amount so this one
25:36
you can't check out and now approaching
25:39
epcot
25:40
every time i see the capitalized e and
25:43
then the small pcot i wonder since
25:45
they're going back to kind of the retro
25:46
look if they're going to capitalize this
25:48
on the on the entryway at some point
25:50
maybe it's pretty cool we were just
25:52
looking at all those articles
25:53
of the old timey epcot center and now
25:56
we're standing here under the monorail
25:59
as it goes by it was neat to see all
26:01
the monorails
26:03
in advertising for companies that were
26:05
saying welcome epcot center to the
26:07
neighborhood
26:09
definitely need a little bit of
26:11
something to wet my whistle not gonna go
26:13
with beverly you know usually i get the
26:15
madagascar but i forgot my favorite is
26:17
country club i'm in club cool by the way
26:21
there's a sour plum
26:22
i really like the country club i'm going
26:24
to do that one
26:25
six of these oh yeah what are the odds
26:28
the monorail going by while i am heading
26:30
over now to guardians now we're waiting
26:32
in the queue for guardians and the ride
26:35
broke down so they gave us a return time
26:37
so we're going to go back just a little
26:38
bit later but for now we're going to go
26:40
up in the epcot lounge
26:42
and just kind of relax up there in the
26:44
ac
26:45
so it's time to return to guardians and
26:47
the ac is definitely working in here
26:49
which is nice
26:50
like this view of spaceship earth over
26:52
on the horizon
26:54
now i looked at the pin trading board
26:55
didn't really find anything i liked
26:57
but they did have these buttons
27:00
50th anniversary buttons so i went ahead
27:02
and got the goofy one
27:04
and the dvc one with the castle on it
27:07
there
27:08
and micah just noticed that this is
27:11
something we saw in the newspaper a
27:12
little bit earlier
27:14
over at the library check it out
27:16
there's a photo i took of that
27:19
opening day newspaper article
27:21
it's the same logo
27:23
we're starting to bring it back for dvc
27:26
good eye look it's really coming down
27:28
noon it streams
27:30
streams of water going down the pyramid
27:33
i didn't bring my umbrella with me so
27:35
i'm glad we're in here
27:36

i think you're really gonna like it your
28:31
first impression was this looks like
28:32
space mountain disneyland that has a
28:34
side-by-side seating it kind of reminds
28:36
me of space mountain
28:38
rock and roller coaster but a lot more
28:40
fluid and a lot more a lot more music
28:43
that's exciting yeah i know rockin
28:45
roller coaster has a lot of music on it
28:47
too but you know what i mean
28:49
a lot of song choices on this one first
28:51
run all right and we are
28:54

29:11
think
29:12

29:14
i loved it um it's hard to explain but
29:17
you feel weightless it's something
29:18
you've never experienced before on a
29:20
ride a lot of similarities to spaceship
29:23
earth and rock and roller coaster like
29:24
you said space mountain face mount and
29:28
it just
29:29
honestly left me kind of like at the end
29:31
i didn't talk for a minute yeah like i
29:32
sat there and was like kind of
29:33
recognizing like what i just saw i'm
29:35
glad you liked it it was insane yeah you
29:37
have to ride that if you come to epcot
29:39

29:40
creation shop
29:42
check out in the glare of the window
29:44
spaceship earth over there isn't that
29:45
awesome the reflection
29:47
reflections
29:49
of earth
