3:04 night so the Magic Kingdom closes at six
3:07 today and on Party nights we're not
3:09 going to the party later we're on Party
3:11 nights during the day the lines are a
3:13 lot more mellow
3:14 than they usually are which is nice just
3:16 following along with the yellow monorail
3:18 here so we didn't have to park at TTC
3:20 Transportation Ticket Center didn't have
3:22 to take the ferry boat over or the
3:24 monorail over
3:25 we just hoofed it and we're almost done
3:28 right up here's the main entrance I know
3:30 one of the things my mom wants to go on
3:32 is Dumbo
3:33 so we're gonna go on Dumbo and a few
3:35 other things too but Dumbo shoot
3:36 mentioned and right down the middle of
3:38 Main Street USA and just as we are
3:41 walking down Main Street we got a
3:43 cavalcade coming through with Mickey and
3:45 Minnie and a castle care a little
3:46 cavalcade going right down the middle of
3:48 Main Street USA in front of Cinderella
3:50 Castle pretty awesome to see what we're
3:52 walking in we're greeted by some of the
3:54 characters and the cavalcade there's a
3:56 parade later too also on the way in
3:58 right after the cavalcade we ended up
4:00 walking up to Cinderella castle and they
4:01 were doing something in replacement of
4:03 Mickey's friendship Fair they said due
4:05 to circumstances Mickey friendship hair
4:06 would not happen but a lot of characters
4:08 came out in front of the castle they did
4:09 a little like firework pyro above the
4:11 top of the castle so that was pretty
4:12 awesome we're gonna head over to RaceWay

12:37 maybe like 20 30 people in life I'm
12:39 looking over there at the remember the
12:43 movie Fly To The Navigator but the rumor
12:45 is which I'm pretty confident it is but
12:47 that right there is one of the stream
12:49 used ships from fly the Navigator
12:51 repurposed repainted and added onto this
12:55 goes upside down there's like six or
12:57 seven loops on this it goes completely
12:59 all around
13:09 foreignover ride
13:11 relaxing relaxing it is now two o'clock
13:14 and just got the text that a room is
13:16 ready so since we've got the alert at
13:18 2PM that the room is ready we've decided
13:21 to just head on over there I really like
13:23 this shirt though it's a festive Santa
13:26 hat on Mickey or you can also get into
13:28 the coffee mug style yeah we just rode
13:30 Dumbo and here's a dumbo sweatshirt

13:49 railroad going by nice
13:59 a grand circle tour around
14:00 Magic Kingdom
14:17 monorail going completely overhead
14:17 and I think we're going to go back check
14:19 into the hotel rest a little bit and
14:21 then maybe hit the pool or the hot tub
14:24 last night we were on the front Theme
14:26 Park View tonight we're going to be on
14:27 the Bay Lake View
14:29 which means later we might be able to
14:30 see the
14:31 water pageant the electric light water
14:33 Pageant this is some serious deja vu
14:41 instead of being on this side there on
14:41 the other side
14:43 looks as if we're going to be on the
14:45 15th floor and there's 15 floors on this
14:48 side with the top two floors
14:50 are the two-story rooms we don't have
14:52 we're not a two-story room I think
14:54 around the Bay Lake Side there aren't
14:56 the two-story rooms uh I guess I'll find
14:58 out when I get in there
15:00 where we were last night but
15:02 the opposite wise because it's on the
15:04 other side of the building
15:06 but you got three bathrooms sitting here
15:08 as well one here
15:09 one over there
15:11 you got the main table
15:14 you got one in here
15:17 as well back over
15:20 there's the facilities
15:22 two beds here
15:25 pretty good view
15:27 out the window
15:29 actually a really good view we're on the
15:31 15th floor which is great
15:33 and a really good view of the pool
15:40 so you got the Space Mountain area over
15:40 there
15:42 another restroom in here another
15:43 bathroom
15:45 and a big king bed here
15:48 and then out this window is
15:51 the second balcony I was noticing this
15:53 the other one just had a they both had
15:56 washers and dryers but this not only has
15:58 a washer and dryer but also a big
16:00 walk-in closet
16:02 as well so if you want to have like a
16:03 full Pantry in here you could have a
16:06 full pantry
16:11 and then the view
16:11 out this window
16:14 it's pretty awesome looking down at the
16:16 pool down there and across
16:19 Bay Lake oh I see spaceship earth from
16:22 here
16:23 look at that yeah off in the distance
16:25 across Bay Lake spaceship earth
16:28 pretty neat definitely a pretty good
16:30 view of the pool down here in the water
16:32 slide and all that the hot tubs around
16:34 the back side of the water slide there's
16:36 also a Hidden Mickey pool down there as
16:38 well like a splash pad and then you got
16:40 the former Discovery Island over there
16:42 River Country used to be right over
16:45 there originally they were going to
16:46 build a couple years ago they announced
16:47 they were going to build a new DVC
16:48 Resort and that kind of put got put on
16:51 the back burner but you got Epcot over
16:54 in the distance and then over here is
16:57 the top of the world Lounge of course
16:59 you can't really see usually when you're
17:01 top of the world Lounge you can kind of
17:02 like go across over it where and you can
17:05 look into Magic Kingdom
17:07 there's someone over here waving from
17:08 the the top window over here last couple
17:12 hours you've just been relaxing in the
17:14 hotel here and while we've been in here
17:17 it looked like it rained a little bit I
17:19 booked a reservation for a Kona Cafe at
17:21 6 20 so we're gonna take the monorail
17:22 Loop go over the poly and get a bite to
17:25 eat it's monorail time I'm gonna take
17:27 the resort Loop over to the Polynesian
17:30 this is the express monorail the resort

18:09 you get lemonade yeah you got some
18:10 lemonade right there very nice
18:18 it's good and also they have brothy
18:18 bread which I believe has like a
18:19 pineappley flavor too is that what she
18:21 said a pineappley flavor oh I do smell
18:23 like does it smells like pineapple all
18:25 right this is what we're doing this is
18:26 what I'm talking about so remember last
18:27 night we were over at Steakhouse 71 and
18:31 the the side of the asparagus is much
18:33 smaller than this this reminds me of the
18:35 asparagus they have at The Boathouse
18:37 that I love so much this is a decent
18:39 size
18:41 appetizer for the table and then also
18:43 look at this pot sticker right here it's
18:46 like one big pot sticker but it's
18:47 actually really six pot stickers
18:49 entwined into one mom got a side of
18:52 fries with the ketchup over there
18:53 chicken wings we went with some some
18:56 chicken wings over here originally we're
18:58 going to get like a noodle dish we
18:59 thought maybe they have a noodle dish
19:00 which a couple years ago what I ate here
19:02 they had some sort of noodle dish with
19:04 like pork or beef but they only served
19:06 that during the lunch menu so we got our
19:09 hopes up on some noodles and there's no
19:11 noodles so I went to California roll
19:13 okay we have gone for the Gusto here and
19:16 we ended up getting the what was this
19:17 called again it's ice cream and it's uh
19:21 pudding red pudding which is known for
19:24 the Kona Cafe but there's they like they
19:26 like Tower it's got a little flower on
19:29 there this is enough to share a good
19:32 thing good thing we didn't order two of
19:34 these because this is a lot
19:36 oh my gosh this is kind of a win in Rome
19:39 mama so you have to have one of these
19:40 have made it back over to Bay Lake
19:43 going up to
19:45 15th floor
19:50 15-4 right
19:50 15.
19:52 second from the top floor the weather
19:54 has cooled down quite a bit since
19:56 earlier today we're at Magic Kingdom
19:59 and I'm noticing after getting back here
20:01 there is not one person in the pool or
20:05 hot tub
20:07 or the Hidden Mickey Splash Pad kind of
20:09 tempted to go down to the hot tub even
20:11 though it's going to be very brisk
20:14 66 degrees at the moment with up to 77
20:17 earlier there's going to get 59 later
20:19 tonight
20:20 should I go down to the hot tub
20:23 I might
20:24 I've decided I'm doing it it's Breezy
20:26 mid 60s the pool's Calling My Name the
20:31 hot tubs calling my name
20:33 mom decided to sit this one out
20:36 she said it's a little too cold for her
20:37 taste she could be up in the room I'm
20:39 gonna be in the I don't know if I'm
20:41 gonna go in the pool definitely go in
20:42 the hot tub and
20:43 soaked just so maybe I will get the ball
20:45 it's supposed to be a heated pool so
20:48 might as well get the I don't know maybe
20:49 I get the pool also a room is right up
20:51 there and these are waterproof the magic
20:54 fans are waterproof
20:56 I'm going in supposedly the pool is
20:58 heated
21:00 but I might not stay in here very long
21:02 this is going to be
21:04 oh you know surprisingly it's not that
21:06 it's cold
21:08 oh wow okay it's a little chilly
21:11 it's a little chilly one thing that's
21:12 nice though is the music is off in here
21:14 it's not like full-on party mode Party
21:16 Zone like it is but there's a lot of
21:19 people in here uses a speaker over here
21:20 it's like cranked I prefer the more
21:22 quiet pool aspect like this so I'm in
21:26 the pool
21:27 yeah room's right up there
21:33 it's a nice pool
21:33 the pool tour
22:04 foreign
22:06 and peaceful in here by myself not a
22:09 soul in here
22:11 not a creature of a stirring not even a
22:15 mouse
23:12 back up with the room now you can see
23:12 the electric light pageant happening on
23:14 Bay Lake down there let's face your
23:15 birth off in the distance should be some
23:17 fireworks coming up over the top of that
23:20 pretty soon because I believe harmonious
23:22 is starting pretty much any minute it is
23:25 way over there but it's definitely a
23:26 unique perspective
23:28 Epcot from over here
23:33 harmonious way off in the distance with
23:34 the lights fire
23:37 works
23:39 oh it kind of it takes a lot for the
23:41 noise to get back over this way there it
23:44 is
23:46 but that's going to do it for today
23:52 the kingdom
23:52 made a Kona Cafe
23:54 checked into the Bay Lake Side of Bay
23:56 Lake Tower
23:58 and now ending
23:59 nighttime spectacular at Epcot way off
24:03 across the horizon
24:09 next video the Vlog
24:09 is over
