Downtown Disney and I am kind of curious
1:44
what's going to happen to the former
1:45
ESPN building they are starting to go
1:47
vertical over here we're walking through
1:49
World of Disney I ended up getting a
1:51
piping hot caffeinated beverage you got
1:53
a piping cold or a very very cold I end
1:57
up going with the pumpkin spice latte
1:59
I'm not really a pumpkin spice kind of
2:01
guy but we walked in Starbucks and it
2:03
said it's the 20th anniversary so I said
2:04
you know what I'm gonna get some pumpkin
2:06
spice to celebrate the 20th of pumpkin
2:07
spice and Latte form this looks like
2:09
there's some new merchandise over here
2:11
the kind of the classic Disneyland D and
2:13
all that right there yes this is a
2:15
classic I'll check it out look at this
2:16
you got Goofy and Donald playing a
2:19
little sports right there very nice dear
2:22
person behind me I hope you have a
2:23
magical day at the park sincerely the
2:26
person in front of you there's a lot of
2:28
new merch here happy to be here you got
2:30
the ears and oh this is so cute look at
2:34
cap or a bucket hat right there
2:36
there goes the Monterey also Halloween
2:41
stuff is happening we're just gonna
2:43
we're gonna mix a lot of stuff in today
2:44
a lot of stuff there he is topiary
2:46
Mickey Disneyland has a population of
2:49
650 million according to that elevation
2:52
138 feet and it is 1205 so five minutes
2:56
after noon as we're walking in there
2:58
here you leave today yesterday tomorrow
3:01
and fantasy kind of glad that I ended up
3:05
getting this coffee because without a
3:07
piping hot caffeinated beverage this is
3:10
how I would be feeling right here this
3:11
is how the eyes look never feel like
3:13
looking like that toad like that when
3:15
you don't have coffee yeah
3:26
walking over here it's gonna be neat
3:26
when this finally opens over the tree
3:28
house area so we have booked a lightning
3:31
light our first lightning Lane of the
3:33
day is going to be a 1 15 over at the
3:36
Matterhorn we're gonna do that but first
3:38
we're gonna go by Tiana there it is
3:40
Tiana's Palace see the Riverboat Smoke
3:43
Stacks up top there where it says
3:45
Tiana's Palace and there's a lot of
3:47
people over here already the lightning
3:49
lanes for Haunted Mansion overlay are
3:52
already booked till 7 30. we cannot book
3:54
another one until after we get off of
3:56
the Matterhorn so we might not even be
3:57
getting a Lifeline they may all be gone
3:59
by the time we book a lightning line and
4:01
basically our next plan is that's where
4:02
we get off Matterhorn we're going to try
4:04
to book a lightning Lane in park hop for
4:05
a DCA a little bit later and go over and
4:08
do uh Guardians Mission breakout after
4:11
dark monsters after dark which is
4:13
specifically for the Halloween event but
4:15
if you're in there between three o'clock
4:16
and 6 p.m before the event starts you
4:19
can get on the ride so we're gonna do
4:20
that we're gonna do a little Park
4:21
confidence just look at some quick wait
4:22
times at 12 24. so Mansion is 55 minutes
4:26
and I'm sure that would grow as the
4:28
night progresses Pirates is only 30. Big
4:30
Thunder is 35
4:32
and let's see we wanted to do Space
4:34
Mountain let's see what a space Space
4:36
Mountain is down at the moment also you
4:39
haven't been in the DVC Lounge we can
4:41
walk over the DVC Lounge at some point
4:42
you can check that out as well what's
4:45
your first impression of seeing that did
4:46
you love Princess and the Frog Tiana so
4:49
much I'm already so impressed it looks
4:51
so pretty I'm so excited we're going to
4:52
come back over a little later and get a
4:54
snack or a food item maybe a beignet or
4:57
gumbo or some gumbo but it's a little
5:00
too early we don't want to eat yet plus
5:02
we don't want to eat and then go out and
5:03
just see scarold the yeti Scara is
5:06
appropriate because it's like the
5:07
Halloween season it's very appropriate
5:11
look at this line for Mansion over here
5:13
pretty like 55 minutes but we definitely
5:17
got to do Mansion even if we gotta wait
5:18
in that later let's go
5:43
hey that worked out pretty well she was
5:46
just about to head back into the
5:47
restaurant and we were the last in line
5:49
to meet her so these are the photos
5:52
of meeting Tiana on her not the grand
5:55
opening but you know it's been open a
5:57
couple weeks of her restaurant which
5:59
we're going to be hopefully
6:02
getting some food out a little bit later
6:03
really cute photos she was sweet
6:08
all right that is not a pirate ship
6:10
that's the sailing ship Columbia but it
6:11
does look like a pirate ship so it's
6:13
inspired us to go on Pirates of the
6:15
Caribbean this says 30 minutes but I
6:17
think it's going to be a little shorter
6:18
than this we've got this placard here
6:19
celebrating Disneyland's Pirates of the
6:24
Caribbean
6:26
yeah it doesn't look too bad wait time
6:29
wise as we go in and kind of see some
6:33
Pirates and I think I really like about
6:34
this Pirates man I like Walt Disney
6:35
World's Pirates but of the two I would
6:38
definitely say that this one is more of
6:41
a non-sample version I would consider
6:43
you know this is probably twice the
6:45
length of the one at Walt Disney World
6:47
so you get a lot you get a lot more on
6:49
the on the west coast you know some
6:51
rides are better and some attractives
6:52
are better on the East Coast some are
6:54
better on the west coast I would
6:55
definitely put this in the better on the
6:56
West Coast
6:57
when it comes to the Pirates of the
6:59
Caribbean just just my opinion so kind
7:01
of a good one to start off with as far
7:03
as as far as today's attractions go all
7:06
right heading over to Matterhorn I was
7:08
kind of hoping the monorail will be
7:09
Crossing by here but it's still pretty
7:12
impressive even without the monorail
7:13
going by this particular moment ah there
7:15
it is there it goes by getting a little
7:17
lock there so getting the view from
7:19
underneath here and you can see the
7:20
monorail
8:13
that is so rough yeah I don't think I
8:13
like the front
8:28
wow this seems a lot more open than it
8:28
used to be there's like less trees
8:30
through here
8:31
I never remember this being this open
8:33
with this little viewing platform to
8:35
this extent or maybe I just don't
8:37
remember it correctly oh never
8:44
know yeah the uh the pilot cast member
8:44
in there we're gonna head over to
8:45
Tiana's at some point we're gonna hop up
8:47
in the DVC lineup Daphne's never been up
8:48
in there so we're gonna head up in there
8:50
at some point it closes at six so we got
8:52
to get in there before six but when it
8:54
comes to probably roughest rides that
8:55
realign your spine on at the property
8:58
this is in the top couple if not the
9:01
number one all right before heading over
9:02
to Tiana's we decided to hop in line it
9:04
looked it wasn't too long of a line for
9:07
Haunted Mansion the overlay want to see
9:09
Jack Skellington so he took a little
9:11
ride through on a doom buggy we're two
9:13
holidays Collide on the way through I
9:17
figured you know it sometimes it's good
9:19
to ride this in the evening time but I
9:20
figure after five or six when a lot of
9:22
the annual pass holders get in and at 6
9:25
PM when DCA closes it's probably going
9:27
to be a super long line people heading
9:29
out of DCA they can't go to the
9:30
Halloween party they're going to come
9:31
over and I would guess it's probably
9:33
going to be like 100 minute wait as the
9:35
night progresses we decided to go ahead
9:36
and knock it out during during the
9:38
daylight hours and it was right next to
9:39
Tiana and it wasn't it wasn't too long
9:41
to get in so we just decided to go ahead
9:43
and do it and say hi to Oogie Boogie and
9:46
Jack and Sally and the rest of the and
9:48
zero and the rest of the the rest of the
9:50
crew
9:52
and just down the ways a bit is the
9:55
construction so we're going to be eating
9:57
at Tiana's if I wanted to show where the
9:59
former splash mount so you see the
10:01
Haunted Mansion overlay there but then
10:03
you also see
10:05
all the walls up over here where splash
10:08
used to be all right just like that back
10:10
over here at Tiana's Palace they really
10:12
did a refurb on this quick they really
10:14
really got this thing open like they got
10:16
the construction walls down and
10:17
everything I think this opened about two
10:19
or three weeks ago was not here on the
10:22
opening day but I'm here now all right
10:23
the line does not just look too long in
10:25
fact this is the line it's pretty much
10:27
just right in I got desserts they got
10:30
gumbo they have something called seven
10:32
greens gumbo which has white beans okra
10:34
yams sweet potatoes and heirloom rice
10:36
they have house filled Beignets lemon
10:40
ice box filled toppings with lemon glaze
10:43
all right getting a little behind the
10:44
scenes there they inserted in there and
10:46
then they fill it up with the lemony
10:48
lemon right lemony goodness right there
10:52
and they dip it in the sauce and serve
10:54
it to whoever needs well I think I'm not
10:56
gonna get a beignet I think I'm just
10:58
gonna go with the Savory treats
11:01
but the Beignets do look pretty good
11:03
different than the old Beignets they
11:05
stepped up the beignet game in here
11:08
and that's the finished product they
11:10
also have cornbread and mac and cheese
11:13
in there
11:15
look up there and this is what we're
11:20
dealing with
11:22
um
11:23
I already got a lot you want another
11:24
water bottle water two more bottles of
11:27
water all right grab the seat out here
11:30
we got to put the gumbo Edge and you
11:33
went with the beignet as well yeah
11:36
fantastic gumbo that's a rice got the
11:38
spicy good stuff you got the what's that
11:40
pulled pork of some sort yeah I think
11:43
it's like a full form full item you got
11:45
the sausage and all that we're doing
11:47
this
11:48
it's only been open like two weeks I
11:51
think right or a week
11:52
it opened the same night as four nights
11:54
oh so the seventh seven yeah so it's
11:57
been just about two weeks and yes they
11:59
do in fact still have the mint julep bar
12:01
out here as well we're sitting pretty
12:03
close to the jewel of our
12:05
I think you could we could have probably
12:07
got the mint julep inside as well but
12:08
I'm opting out of a minute
12:15
this this this this uh lunch is so cool
12:15
I need sunglasses they're so bright I
12:19
don't know something yeah it's pretty
12:21
good A little spicy but I like a little
12:24
New Orleans spice
12:32
it definitely has a little kick to it
12:32
it's got a little Cajun flavor to it
12:36
probably a smart move getting a couple
12:38
extra Waters yeah I was wondering how
12:40
spicy or how salty it might be sometimes
12:42
gumbo is it's a little it's a little
12:44
salty also it was like sitting here
12:45
while we ate yeah
12:48
it's congealed a little bit I know I
12:50
thought it was gonna be so much more
12:51
cinematic like it was gonna be all like
12:53
lemony and everything there it is
12:56
that is the inside of the vignette it
12:59
looks like the lemon is kind of like
13:01
soaked into the bread it's been probably
13:03
sitting for over a while and now over to
13:05
the former Star Wars launch bay which is
13:07
now home at the Disney Vacation Club
13:09
star view station going up to the DVC
13:12
Lounge not a bad little view overlooking
13:15
Tomorrowland from this perspective
13:17
kind of off in the distance you got the
13:18
matter horn that we did earlier have you
13:21
ever been up on this little ledge before
13:22
for any events or anything back in the
13:24
day I don't think so I've only been in
13:26
here for the marble thing oh yeah did
13:29
you when they had the Marvel section
13:30
could you come out here on the on the
13:32
little Veranda like this foreign
13:49
all right finished up in the lounge and
13:49
now we're gonna head over to DCA to your
13:52
credit coaster taking a walk out of
13:55
Tomorrowland
13:57
CA
14:10
all right eventually we are gonna head
14:10
back over into San Francisco Square from
14:14
Big Hero 6. that has that opened about a
14:16
month or so ago as well but the first
14:18
gonna head over to the pier and ride
14:22
I almost said California's treatment but
14:24
in credit coaster there it goes fast
14:27
enough
14:28
incredit coaster
14:39
oh my gosh
14:39
oh
14:41
my god
14:47
oh I forgot how intense this was
14:47
are you kidding me it's been a while
14:51
thank you
15:21
oh my
15:21
God goodness gracious
15:34
there we are right there look at that
15:34
that is four
15:36
austerity all right he's located up
15:39
there in the blue box there is a pigment
15:41
with his hands on it
15:43
you have to look very closely but there
15:46
he is pigment all the way from Epcot
15:48
from the east coast to the West Coast
15:55
heading here lots of alarms going on I
15:55
mean they called this monsters after
15:56
dark as it is in fact really
15:59
even though outside is still live in
16:02
here there's nothing oh my gosh look at
16:04
this piranha looking fish right there
16:08
the old Hollywood Tower has been
16:10
converted the Guardians
16:12
completely taking it over
16:24
it's Harold right up there that's the
16:24
old hero that's the real Herald before
16:27
scarold
16:29
for that I think you know I've never
16:31
actually looked it up officially I think
16:34
that used to be on the Matterhorn that's
16:35
the old one that was on the Matterhorn
16:38
and here they replace it with the new
16:40
scarier Herald hints scareled
16:54
there's a ghost in here look at this
16:54
there's a ghost inside there milk eggs
16:58
and cheese
17:00
ghost
17:01
wandering around inside okay
17:28
keep saying it's a ghost I don't know
17:28
why I keep saying if it's obvious what
17:29
it is
17:55
bye
18:09
looking over into Batu West
18:12
y's Edge Star Wars man it's interesting
18:16
too because this entrance here they do
18:19
not have this entrance open at Batu East
18:22
in Florida
18:24
there are three entrances as opposed to
18:26
two on the East Coast three on the west
18:29
coast so it's kind of neat to walk in
18:31
and you cannot go through that that's
18:33
open in Florida to go to the star
18:34
Cruiser little subtle differences to the
18:38
land pretty much looks the same it's a
18:39
little different after two weeks neither
18:42
will Florida oh that's true after yeah a
18:46
couple weeks from now he won't that's
18:47
true Star cruise is closing
18:50
keep forgetting now I just checked and
18:52
there are no fireworks are going to be
18:53
happening tonight one little thing I
18:55
like about being over here on the West
18:57
Coast of Disneyland when they do the
18:58
fireworks they are
19:01
up in the air right here above the
19:03
fastest hunk of junk in the theme park
19:05
Falcon here and Florida they are in a
19:08
different spot because they are they
19:10
don't have fireworks at Hollywood
19:11
Studios at the moment it has like some
19:13
pyro stuff above the the Chinese Theater
19:16
but it's kind of nice to come back here
19:18
when they do the fireworks but right now
19:19
I believe they're only doing them on the
19:21
weekends
19:22
it's about a weekend though it's a
19:23
Tuesday after 40 of us so yeah it's kind
19:25
of you have like a yub-dub moment right
19:27
not gonna have a yep dub moment this
19:29
evening because no fireworks over here
19:31
Fantasyland really is a complete beehive
19:34
of activity but how many thank you
19:37
people are wedged in a teapot
20:04
the magic wing the transported to our
20:04
new cool world
20:12
