Christmas Day In SOLD OUT Magic Kingdom at Disney World - Dreary Weather / Long Lines & Holiday Fun

0:03 It's Beginning to Look a Lot Like

0:03 Christmas

0:05 rain rainy floor to day on

0:09 Christmas as the recording of this

0:12 December

0:13 25th 2023 Merry Christmas little

0:17 afternoon right now it's 12:15 I4

0:20 westbound very smooth which is a good

0:29 site don't let the traffic fool you

0:29 however

0:31 ever where I'm going Magic Kingdom is

0:34 going to be very

0:44 busy usually the busiest day of the year

0:44 this and New Year's Eve and New Year's

0:46 Day but I don't know if the weather will

0:49 make that uh change that a little bit

0:52 I'll see when I get there booked a

0:53 reservation to the park a couple weeks

0:55 ago just to make sure I had it locked

0:58 in

1:00 I should be good to

1:02 go well I know I am don't really know

1:04 where I was going with what I was saying

1:06 there but yeah I'm good to go because I

1:07 book the

1:09 reservation even though on Mondays

1:11 annual passholders Monday through Friday

1:13 only on

1:15 weekends do you have to have a

1:17 reservation after or before two but I'm

1:20 not sure if today is an exception so I

1:22 just went ahead and grabb one just to

1:24 make sure it's not to yet but it'll be

1:26 two in about an hour and a half as you

1:28 can see the parking lot is is far from

1:31 Full at this hour and this could all

1:34 change as the day goes on a lot of times

1:36 people open the presents in the morning

1:37 and pop in a little bit

1:39 later I've seen videos and photos from

1:42 years back where there was no parking

1:45 anywhere at TTC it was so busy that was

1:48 a while back but it'll be busy today too

1:50 but I think a little bit later

1:51 especially after 2 when all the annual

1:54 passholders can just walk right

2:01 up

2:01 there's a tram up there I guess I could

2:03 take the tram or I could walk it I'm not

2:05 too far from the front entrance though

2:06 so I might just walk this is what the

2:09 weather is looking like it's 70° now

2:11 right now MK it's going to be 70% 65%

2:15 65%

2:16 60% through the rest of the early

2:19 afternoon brought my umbrella just in

2:21 case welcome everyone Adam the woo here

2:24 and merry Christmas as stated I got my

2:27 umbrella also got Magic Band Here

2:31 wearing an appropriate shirt stay

2:38 Jolly I'm inviting you to join me it's

2:38 Christmas Day 2023 going into Magic

2:41 Kingdom the belly of the Beast join me

2:44 shall you check out what's parked over

2:46 here in the

2:53 lot nice I will show the weit times as

2:53 they progress throughout the day at this

2:54 time 12:40 this is what they're looking

2:57 like they're pretty bad but they're not

2:59 as horrible as I was expecting 80

3:01 minutes which is nothing to sneeze at

3:03 for Space Mountain but I think that's

3:05 probably going to get worse 30 for

3:06 Raceway which is autopia East more or

3:08 less 5 minutes for Carousel progress it

3:10 might be a carousel progress day for me

3:12 85 for Mine

3:14 Train 60 Minutes for small world 855 for

3:17 Peter Pan 75 to see Hattie the new

3:20 Hattie there and Haunted Mansion 60 for

3:22 Big Thunder yeah that's 10 minutes wait

3:24 for the train not bad 85 for Jingle

3:26 cruise and an hour for pirates and

3:29 that's just see how that progresses as

3:31 the day goes on my agenda is to just

3:34 enjoy the

3:35 day see where it leads if I can get on a

3:38 couple of

3:39 attractions get a

3:45 snack I'll be

3:45 happy I'm not going to do lightning lane

3:47 cuz I feel like they're probably already

3:49 kind of booking up throughout the day

3:50 it's getting kind of late lightning Lane

3:52 is something you want to get when you

3:53 get here a rope drop on a busy day if

3:55 you were just doing magic can today $39

3:58 per guest

4:00 sometimes it's like $20 $25 I don't know

4:02 if I've ever seen it be $39 per

4:05 guest don't know if I've ever seen this

4:07 line looking like a line at MCO before

4:10 and the stroller line stretches all the

4:13 way back over

4:15 there also there goes the

4:22 monil yeah usually it doesn't double and

4:22 triple back like this usually you just

4:23 kind of walk right through maybe wait

4:25 like 2 minutes this is like four or five

4:27 Kickbacks all right I got through so

4:29 take a look at this Magic Kingdom is

4:32 completely sold out for ticketed guest

4:35 today all the other three are still open

4:37 Magic Kingdom sold

4:45 out so if you weren't an annual

4:45 passholder you want to go to magicum you

4:47 have to buy a parkhopper

4:49 option not an auction that'd be kind of

4:51 weird if they auctioned them

4:53 off well you know what maybe I don't

4:55 know maybe you can't parkop to Magic

4:57 Kingdom with the park hopper I would

4:59 imagine you could but yeah just buying a

5:01 regular ticket though and these are the

5:04 prices valid December 25th 2023 one day

5:09 ticket $179 and I'm going to go with a

5:12 little peppermint latte over here at

5:13 joffre the line is pretty short in

5:15 comparison to what it probably is going

5:16 to be at Starbucks on Main Street ah yes

5:20 peppermint mocha latte team jofre today

5:25 team Starbucks a lot of times too but I

5:27 really like this one that's here at TTC

5:29 cuz you want to wait for very long I'm

5:30 going to take the monreal over all right

5:31 this is kind of neat I'm noticing they

5:33 have the lights illuminated not only the

5:35 real montre rails but also on the side

5:36 I've never seen it where they had the

5:37 green and the red underneath the sign as

5:40 well that's a nice oh your walkie-talkie

5:43 scared me has that always been there

5:45 like that with the lights underneath it

5:47 uh I've only been here for 3 week 3 days

5:49 so I can't answer that question that

5:51 looks new to me either way it's a nice

5:52 touch yeah Merry I'm also noticing the

5:55 monre rails are running really

5:57 consistently once I got up to the

5:58 station one pulled away and another one

6:01 pulled in almost immediately it was

6:03 waiting around the bend and then it just

6:05 like pulled up so they got they got all

6:06 of them out

6:16 tonight kind of Sol five looking looks

6:17 like the train is pulling up there you

6:19 have the Rainy window in the way but

6:21 kind of get the idea a lot of people POS

6:24 it for the photo in front of the topiary

6:26 Mickey and Minny with their Santa caps

6:27 on the Wind to get looks pretty fluid it

6:31 was like thanks man it was

6:34 definitely a little warm in there not in

6:37 the front you used to be a sit in the

6:38 front but now you can't sit in the front

6:40 anymore it's good to be out here where

6:42 the wind is blown cuz that was that was

6:43 a little stagnant in there a little warm

6:46 all right making it in it's about 1:13

6:49 p.m. if I'm reading that clock it takes

6:50 a little while to get from TTC to Magic

6:52 Kingdom but yeah I'm in woo that scared

6:54 me this will just be a wander around

6:56 kind of day and just go on attractions

6:58 that have short wait

7:00 time the Train's about to take off over

7:02 there as well the toy soldiers out got

7:06 the Christmas tree in full effect got

7:08 the castle down there and got this doll

7:10 down here Pro providing some nightmare

7:12 Fuel and of course everyone wants their

7:13 photo with the castle so this is the

7:15 photo for photo pass the line for photo

7:17 pass I should say and one getting that

7:19 Christmas Day photo and here come the

7:21 Dapper Dan making their way through

7:23 maybe I should watch a little hi there

7:25 right this way to the magic everybody

7:27 okay following him

7:29 Magic The Magic is here don't go any

7:32 further it's right here this is where

7:34 the magic is join it everybody round

7:39 we've been

7:40 practicing the said he's H it enough

7:43 backstage and he wants us to get

8:13 Hol there's more yeah there's a whole

8:13 lot more huh j i

8:26 n hi there

8:26 you well thank you so much good after

8:29 merry christm everybody we

8:38 are might be tough to see them on camera

8:38 but there are A Flock of Seagulls flying

8:42 around the Hub here in front of the

8:44 castle nothing says Christmas like

8:47 seagulls flying around the castle I'm

8:49 also starting to think that possibly

8:51 bringing this jacket this windbreaker

8:53 might not have been the best decision

8:54 it's a little humid it's more humid than

8:56 it's been the last couple weeks here in

8:58 Florida but I think maybe once the Sun

9:00 starts to go down the afternoon starts

9:01 to kind of progress and early evening

9:04 rears its head I probably not regret

9:06 bringing but right now yeah I'm actually

9:08 sweating a little bit oh they're they're

9:11 flying right in all the birds I'm going

9:12 to make my way over going to head around

9:14 the rivers of America on the river boat

9:17 don't mind if I do oh got some bubbles

9:20 coming right through the lims there nice

9:22 adding a little little Ambiance as well

9:25 I hear the train in the distance I think

9:27 I timed this just right cuz this thing's

9:28 about to

9:29 take off around the rivers of America

9:32 Got The Haunted Mansion which assumably

9:34 probably has a really long line as well

9:37 check out the weight times here in a

9:38 little bit it's a full house on the

9:40 upper deck I think I'm going to head

9:41 down to the lower deck also they very

9:46 narrow all these

9:59 bubbles bring the Bell give me that Bell

9:59 give me that Christmas

10:06 Bell love it us I get to top there's

10:06 like a lot more room down here I think

10:07 everyone heads to the top in the second

10:09 level up there's a little little Tut

10:11 toots that's a

10:13 launch running off with some steam you

10:16 got the steam coming out of the side

10:18 there and a nice little view of

10:20 Florida's Haunted Mansion off in the

10:23 distance going around I'll show we go to

10:25 the back and show the wheel too walking

10:26 up the stairs now going to show the

10:29 the wheel around the back a look

10:33 propelling this thing

10:35 around very nice the crowds over there

10:38 watching go

10:41 by love the river boat one of my

10:44 favorite things at boat

10:47 Co W the soothing

10:51 sounds of the steam horn that what's

10:54 called a steam horn that's what I'm

10:56 calling it I'm going to parallel to this

10:57 little walkway here

10:59 Yeah country bears they have not

11:01 announced when the final day of the

11:03 current show is they're changing the

11:05 some of the character names changing all

11:08 the

11:09 songs it's going to be into early next

11:12 year they haven't officially stated when

11:15 the last day of the current show will

11:22 be now with Splash Mountain going away

11:22 and them changing Country Bears have to

11:25 wonder so Tom ster Island the rafts that

11:27 go over there I think Tom S Island will

11:29 be around much longer will they will

11:31 they kind of like modify that into

11:33 something

11:34 else I mean I know HCK thin and Tom

11:37 Sawyer and all that but people of newer

11:40 Generations have any clue or even want

11:42 to

11:44 know also Carousel of Progress I wonder

11:47 if that's going to get refurbed or a

11:49 reimagining at some point I think with

11:52 Country Bears going away and changing I

11:55 think next on The Chopping Block not the

11:57 complete getting rid of it but I think I

12:00 think it's going to be changed oh yeah

12:02 there it is the wildest ride in the

12:05 Christmas Wilderness no snow on those

12:08 Peaks though no snow on

12:27 them oo they're in their partying and up

12:27 they're always in their party up in cave

12:29 in there I think they're partying up a

12:31 little extra special today cuz it's

12:42 Day howling dog Bend I never realized

12:42 that this was howling dog Bend before if

12:44 I did I forgot a lot of people are

12:46 waving up here waiting in line I wonder

12:48 what the wait time for Mansion is at

12:50 this moment this gentleman is wishing

12:52 everyone to marry

12:53 Christmas waiting in line up

12:56 there have the castle off in the

12:58 distance

13:07 one nice thing

13:08 about waiting in line in mansion you can

13:11 always wave to the guests on the

13:13 Riverboat which right now is me we're

13:16 approaching Liberty

13:24 Square all right this is interesting

13:24 usually they exit you out the Haunted

13:26 Mansion side but because the Haunted

13:28 Mansion line stretches too far to

13:30 interrupt that they have everyone

13:32 exiting over this

13:34 way never gone out this way before

13:37 usually it's up the offramp towards

13:39 mansion and I also went ahead and placed

13:41 a mobile order at Columbia Harbor House

13:44 I'm going to grab myself a a bite to

13:54 eat bottleneck up here but it's moving

13:54 along and just like that someone's

13:58 backing up just like that my order's

14:00 ready quick and easy ah love mobile

14:02 order and I love Columbia Harbor House

14:05 cuz you can go up top sit up at one of

14:07 those tables and look through the

14:08 Windows mobile order for the win all

14:10 right I got some Hush Puppy some green

14:12 beans some glazed salmon I ended up

14:14 getting some rice some tartar sauce a

14:15 couple Waters and a pretty good view

14:18 looking down there at the line for

14:20 Haunted Mansion I always like this view

14:22 you can look down in the park while

14:24 you're consuming a tasty Seafood meal

14:27 here at Harbor House all I decided just

14:29 for the heck of it just to see what it

14:31 would be like if someone was to purchase

14:33 there are some available for Lightning L

14:36 I'm not going to but it would be

14:37 worthwhile if someone at 204 p.m. was to

14:40 purchase the Lightning L granted it's

14:42 the most expensive it's ever been at $39

14:44 per person but you could go right over

14:46 to Barnstormer at 250 Big Thunder at 450

14:50 if you played your cards right you

14:51 booked them correctly you could probably

14:52 get on two or three attractions with the

14:54 lightning line you kind of boil down to

14:56 like I don't know maybe 10 15 bucks per

14:58 per ride to not wait 30 minutes to not

15:02 wait 55 minutes to not wait 50 minutes

15:05 so they also jingle cruise that it's

15:08 almost like they're pretty much all

15:09 booked up so like it's already up to

15:11 9:55 at 2:00 p.m. as well as Peter Pan's

15:14 flight for 9:15 so that's kind of like

15:16 way later in the but that beats waiting

15:18 95 minutes but you have to wait till

15:19 9:00 to kind of use it which is Pates

15:22 you can get kind of right on it within

15:24 another hour so they're I'm surprised

15:26 that they're not all booked up so seven

15:28 do mind train doesn't it does not

15:30 include the $39 you got to pay an extra

15:32 $12 to purchase a Lightning L you still

15:35 got to wait till 10:40 at night to go on

15:37 it if you don't want to wait the 105

15:39 minute standby it's always an

15:41 interesting perspective from up here

15:42 when you get kind of a bird's eye you

15:44 just kind of see how things are

15:45 coordinated down there and you see how

15:47 good of a job the cast members really do

15:49 with answering questions how many people

15:51 come up while they're trying to keep the

15:52 line moving and moving the stanions

15:54 around moving the lines around doing the

15:56 double backs and the triple backs making

15:57 everything in order and how they can

15:59 kind of cram everyone in to a space to

16:02 to make it work so shout out to the cast

16:03 members for doing a heck of a job and

16:06 starting to missed a little bit I think

16:07 it might start be starting to rain here

16:09 pretty soon but there is a little bit of

16:11 Elbow Room it's not cramp packed like i'

16:13 like I've seen in previous years

16:15 although the lightning Lane for Peter

16:17 Pan that's the lightning Lane ending

16:18 right there this is the lightning Lane

16:21 line q line for Peter Pan so you don't

16:23 just walk right in even if you have

16:24 lightning Lane which gets you right in

16:26 front of the line if you will you have

16:27 to wait in the line winie the Poo

16:29 walking

16:30 through yes

16:33 sir hello

16:36 poo Merry Christmas oh

16:40 it's oh my God I got kissed by poo on

16:50 Day I think from here I'm going to head

16:50 over to Tomorrowland while crossing

16:51 underneath people mover heading over to

16:53 Marland check on the wait time for the

16:55 People Mover but also go on Carousel of

16:56 Progress I'm in a carousel progress mood

16:59 and part of the reason is because at the

17:00 end of Carousel progress they have the

17:02 whole Christmas scene on Christmas day

17:05 so I might as well do it on Christmas

17:07 Day it just kind of makes sense right

17:09 look at the Rockets up there spinning

17:12 around I just love that I just love that

17:14 that we walk through tomorrow land those

17:15 things are way up there spinning around

17:16 Disneyland they have them on the ground

17:17 level now yeah the line for people mover

17:20 really not too bad maybe like a 10minute

17:22 wait give or take so maybe after

17:25 Carousel which is over here I can check

17:27 it out there's a balloon right there

17:28 yeah this is just a straight walk- on

17:30 once I go in I'm definitely going to be

17:32 waiting till the last room just so I can

17:34 see all the Christmas stuff I get a

17:35 little over a little outdated I figure

17:37 one day they'll probably end up kind of

17:39 like doing an overlay on this and

17:40 changing at least the last room and

17:42 maybe some of the other rooms but I feel

17:43 like the last room really needs to be

17:45 kind of over over changed and fixed up a

17:47 little bit it's a little bit dated with

17:48 some of the stuff they are mentioning

17:50 but it is really cute and it's even

17:51 cuter to be in in the in the actual last

17:54 room of Carousel progress on the same

17:56 day that they are mentioning the other

17:58 300 64 days a year so it's need to be

18:00 here on the actual the real day

18:02 Christmas Day on Carousel progress in

18:04 the Christmas Day scene yeah take a look

18:06 at this there's no one in line now for

18:08 the People Mover heading up all right on

18:11 to the first part here and the people

18:14 mover there's also a boy band over there

18:16 singing some Christmas tunes called the

18:18 collective five they were just singing a

18:21 very special Christmas for you a I got

18:24 to love the people M take a look at that

18:26 view once again the Rockets going around

18:29 I also love these trees the very kind of

18:31 futuristic tomorrow land trees got all

18:33 the lights illuminated down there even

18:35 though it's not quite Nightfall you

18:36 can't see them all illuminated along the

18:38 side of tomorrow land Speedway the

18:40 Raceway here which you can kind of see

18:43 they put them up for the Christmas party

18:44 but the Christmas party is over so now

18:46 they're up for Christmas day nice a take

18:48 a look at this Space Mountain they got

18:50 all the Christmas lights on it one thing

18:52 is pretty awesome about being on this

18:53 day even though the Christmas parties

18:54 have ended they kind of give you a magic

18:56 moment they keep the stuff that's

18:57 happening at the pain paid Christmas

18:59 parties the hard ticket events even

19:01 those have ended they have everything

19:03 that you have as far as rides go

19:04 overlays goes they have those go during

19:06 the day so you can see Space Mountain

19:08 all lit up with the Christmas lights I

19:10 mean how freaking cool is that you can

19:11 go on the People Mover and see Space

19:13 Mountain all lit up with the lights you

19:15 don't really get to see that too often

19:16 so it's kind of like a magic moment if

19:18 you will to see that kind of happening

19:19 which is pretty pretty dang awesome and

19:21 I'm heading down the People Mover and

19:23 I'm see if I can catch a little bit of

19:25 the Christmas parade that is happening

19:27 over on Main Street when I was all the

19:28 people moving I was definitely noticing

19:30 that there were a ton of people in the

19:32 hub see if I can catch a glimpse of it

19:33 going to cut through tomorrow land make

19:35 my way over to the hub and then once I'm

19:37 there hopefully get to catch at least

19:39 like the second half of the Christmas

19:40 parade as it kind of goes by in front of

19:43 Cinderella Castle it has all the

19:45 everyone in their their holiday and

19:47 Christmas and end of the year December

19:49 2023 best always like the the the

19:52 Christmas parade is always I mean how

19:54 can you how can you not like the parades

19:55 in general here at Disney World or even

19:57 at Disney land as well but also the

19:59 overlay with the Christmas it just kind

20:00 of makes you happy seeing the whole

20:02 cavalcade and the cast of characters I'm

20:04 seeing it on Christmas day which is even

20:05 better cuz this thing's been running for

20:07 like a month maybe even more than a

20:09 month but this is this is the day that

20:11 really matters the most the actual day

20:13 Christmas Day

20:24 Christmas oh man that Main Street was

20:27 packed through here yeah I love how

20:29 Santa himself just Bell it out a ho ho

20:32 ho hearty ho ho ho almost like he just

20:34 got done with such a hard nights work

20:37 still showing up here for the parade

20:38 here on Christmas Day after being up all

20:41 night delivering presentence and then uh

20:44 at the end of the parade and then a

20:46 belly laugh and a chuckle and a hearty

20:49 Merry Christmas got to hear it firstand

20:51 and everybody cheered oh my goodness

24:48 Hollow ooh never mind that kind of threw

24:51 me off because there's a mirror right

24:53 there I thought that that was over here

24:55 it's an illusion it's just a ction I

24:58 kind of like this right here I think I'm

25:00 going to get

25:01 this the Mickey holiday treat it's like

25:04 a Rice Krispie treat for some M&M's I'm

25:07 going to get one of those there's also

25:10 that mini cereal treat I think I'm going

25:12 to get that one one thing's for sure

25:13 that tree definitely obscures the castle

25:16 down Main Street oh look at that back

25:19 over Transportation Ticket Center now

25:21 you know what's interesting look it was

25:22 going to pour all day I didn't open my

25:24 umbrella once if I would have left this

25:26 in the car it would have downpour the

25:28 entire day just how it works just like

25:30 some kind of weird thing that put out in

25:32 the universe but you grab an umbrella

25:34 doesn't always rain I me that's not

25:36 always true sometimes it does rain but

25:37 you know what I'm saying it didn't

25:40 rain of course I haven't got back to my

25:42 car

25:56 yet people still coming

25:56 in experience

25:58 I'm heading out it's kind of interesting

25:59 as the Montreal goes by up here this

26:03 treat if you don't hold it by the stick

26:06 it doesn't even show that that's like

26:08 Christmas tree more than a Hidden Mickey

26:10 I guess I don't

26:12 know thought maybe would be the stick

26:14 would be on the bottom portion but

26:17 evidently not you can hold it two ways

26:18 you can hold it this way but if you

26:20 wanted to eat it be like a mlet toe

26:22 mistletoe alert or turn it this way and

26:26 eat it like that which is supposed to be

26:27 Christmas tree I don't know but it kind

26:29 of I think it's supposed to be like

26:31 that 5sec rule was in full
