welcome everyone Adam the woo here as
0:03
the recording of this Sunday January 5th
0:07
2025 I am excited not only because I
0:10
have a full piping hot caffeinated
0:12
beverage that I have procured from the
0:15
art deco 711 here in Celebration Florida
0:18
but because tomorrow by this time I've
0:20
already checked in for my flight less
0:23
than 24 hours I will be in the air to
0:25
International destination my first of
0:28
2025 and really the first place so I've
0:30
been to Canada and I've been to Tiana
0:33
Mexico I have not been deep into Mexico
0:35
but I feel like I have never been over
0:38
the oceans to an international place now
0:41
I've been to Hawaii I've been to
0:43
Alaska both seem as if they are
0:46
international but they are part of the
0:48
United States 50 states I am going to be
0:53
embarking on a New Journey in life
0:56
starting tomorrow and I need to run some
0:57
errands today need to go to Highway 27
1:00
over to Davenport area go to Target go
1:01
to Best Buy couple other places and get
1:04
a few items that I need for my travels
1:05
and just see where the day leads I'm
1:07
excited got my passport ready to go
1:09
passport
1:10
info you know punched into the Delta app
1:14
which I use be flying out Delta
1:18
tomorrow good times I'm inviting you to
1:20
join me my last day in the states for a
1:23
little while be gone for about 9 or 10
1:24
days give or take a
1:30
day 2025
1:30
five kicking it off join me shall
1:36
you ooo that's warm this particular
1:39
moment I4 westbound looking pretty dang
1:41
smooth it's no4
1:45
1204 couple minutes past noon on this
1:48
Sunday as
1:49
I'm filming at the moment right now not
1:52
a lot of traffic this will change as the
1:54
day progresses Highway 27 is about
1:57
probably 10 minute drive that way with
1:59
no traffic so this is a good time to get
2:01
over there get some shopping real quick
2:03
and then head back over before traffic
2:05
gets too bad now I do not know but I
2:07
highly doubt they have a Mickey power
2:16
pole outside of this area probably not
2:16
International but if I find one in my
2:18
travels make sure to show him and I
2:20
think this might be the only one Mickey
2:25
power
2:27
oh area over here off Highway 27 off of
2:30
Home Run Street or Home Run Boulevard
2:32
still have the street sign up the reason
2:34
they had that is because it used to be
2:37
boardwalking baseball which was a theme
2:39
park attraction also circus world was
2:41
over here back in the day Circus World
2:43
boardwalk and
2:45
baseball which I believe is where the
2:47
Kansas City Royals used to Spring
2:50
train and now it's a big shopping center
2:53
the targets way over there there's a
2:54
books of million there a JC Pennies
3:02
and Best Buy going in Best Buy next to
3:02
Best Buy looks like there's a little BJs
3:05
I didn't realize this was over here I
3:08
realize this was on the end also there's
3:09
a famous photo of Michael Jackson on the
3:11
roller coaster at boardwalking baseball
3:13
in this General vicinity not not this
3:15
exact spot but here in this complex of
3:17
stores that's here
3:19
now I guess as The Story Goes he rented
3:21
out the entire theme park for the night
3:24
or the evening as he was known to do
3:35
so I'm definitely a novice a
3:35
noob not an expert in any way shape or
3:38
form nor do I claim to be when it comes
3:39
to knowing what I'm doing with these
3:41
international travels I'm going to be
3:43
learning as I go and I guess part of the
3:44
appeal for me is not knowing anything
3:48
right off the bat and possibly those of
3:50
who are going to be watching is just
3:52
seeing someone who is really going to be
3:53
a fish out of water going to
3:56
places that I am not used to so I need
3:59
to go here get a few
4:01
things and I'll show you what I got when
4:03
I leave all right got a few things one
4:05
of them I ended up purchasing a little
4:07
drone a small one nothing too fancy a
4:09
little something I could take on I was
4:11
going to order a much better one and got
4:14
ended up being an issue with delivering
4:17
it so it got sent back they were
4:19
evidently out of stock or something not
4:21
with Best Buy but order through Amazon
4:25
and looked online and the ones I wanted
4:27
I wanted a DJI one that was kind of a a
4:31
little better model than the one I ended
4:32
up purchasing one up purchasing was like
4:35
160 bucks but it'll take care of this
4:38
first trip but I think down the road if
4:39
this doesn't do the task at hand I might
4:42
get I might get a different one and I'll
4:45
probably end up testing this thing out a
4:46
little bit today too it runs off of a
4:48
mini SD card which I do have a couple
4:51
mini SD cards already but I purchased
4:53
another one here so I got a few I also
4:55
have an adapter that connects into my
4:57
phone so I can edit that foot AG in
5:00
films in
5:02
2K but I only upload in
5:06
1080 also got some iPhone chargers I
5:09
also ordered a couple of these online
5:12
but I went ahead and got another one cuz
5:13
I think this one has another adapter
5:15
that the other one I ordered online
5:17
doesn't and you can never have too many
5:19
travel adapters cuz I know that's a
5:21
major
5:22
issue and I don't even know if I'm even
5:24
going to need it at uh certain places
5:27
I'm going but I have again it's all it's
5:30
it's a learning curve for me but I
5:32
figured this will will come in handy for
5:35
now and if this isn't good enough I'll
5:36
get another one for the next country I
5:38
go to in February but this will be this
5:42
will be my first country is Little
5:45
contio contio
5:47
contio
5:49
contio T I don't know how to pronounce
5:52
that the name of
5:54
this but that's the brand name that'll
5:56
work the F28
5:59
all right got to go Target when I
6:01
originally ordered the Drone I ordered
6:02
online tried to be delivered the other
6:04
day and I needed a signature I wasn't
6:06
home I couldn't have them hold it at UPS
6:09
for some reason they're delivering at
6:10
UPS and not United States Postal Service
6:13
I said we're going to try to deliver it
6:14
again Monday which is tomorrow which I
6:16
will not be home so just went ahead and
6:19
just decided to cancel that order cuz
6:22
they were going to keep trying to
6:23
deliver it every day until I was there
6:26
to sign for it and I won't be in the
6:28
country tomorrow so got the one at Best
6:30
Buy decided to get a little bit better
6:33
backpack for my travels right here I've
6:36
been using my DVC one but I think this
6:38
one could hold a little bit more and
6:39
seems a little more durable and I also
6:41
got a four pack of air tags put in my
6:43
suitcase and in the backpack as well and
6:46
I got these I've already got some air
6:48
tags on different things like my car my
6:50
keys my wallet my mini Marge but now I
6:53
can have one on this and then one also
6:54
on my luggage I got to say I'm really
6:57
disappointed in myself for not utilizing
6:58
the air tags sooner because if I would
7:01
have been using the air tags a couple
7:03
days before I went to Alaska I lost
7:05
Andor misplaced or possibly had my
7:08
wallet stolen I don't really know what
7:09
happened but I would have cut down on
7:11
the confusion and stress of knowing
7:13
where it was if I just had the air tags
7:16
and if the air tag was removed from the
7:17
wallet then I would have known it was no
7:19
longer in my possession I would have
7:21
spent half the day going wacky looking
7:23
for it so I'm Team Air tag now love
7:26
having air tags on things we're in the
7:27
same area just a few store TRS down and
7:30
go in the sporting good store and maybe
7:32
get a pair of shoes for the trip pair of
7:34
new shoes just specifically for the trip
7:36
honest I've never worn these kind of
7:38
shoes before but went with what they
7:40
call Trace called Brooks these run a
7:43
little bit different in size so usually
7:45
I wear a 12 and 1/2 but these are 13s
7:48
the 12 and 1/2s were a little too snug
7:51
but these are pretty comfortable so I'll
7:53
give these a try I like trying out
7:54
different kinds of shoes lately so going
7:57
with the uh the Brooks they uh focus on
8:00
knees hips feet Etc and uh these will
8:04
probably be my travel shoes also bear
8:06
foot flops and some Crocs and maybe
8:09
maybe one other pair but these are going
8:10
to be the main pair on the trip back
8:12
over into celebration now going to go
8:14
home for a bit and then I'm going to
8:16
power up the new item see if I can fly
8:19
it around just a little bit by the
8:20
lakefront I got a few accessories spread
8:22
out here now obviously I'm not going to
8:24
be taking all of these
8:26
adapters with me but I guess I could cuz
8:29
you know doesn't take up a lot of space
8:31
I'll put the air tags on I got the four
8:33
pack this is the other adapter I got and
8:35
then over here first thing I'm noticing
8:38
about this brand is
8:41
how really non heavy and plasticky
8:45
almost like not the most
8:49
sturdy remote control for the for the
8:52
Drone there I think my phone goes in
8:54
there I got to read the instructions
8:55
charge it up and give it a try again it
8:58
might not be the permanent one but I
9:00
just need something to go up not too
9:02
high but just a little bit higher up
9:04
than you know to get some good views but
9:08
I feel like I'm missing out on some
9:09
things by not having something like this
9:11
I'm not going to go you know too crazy
9:14
with it but just to get some some angles
9:16
I don't normally get comes with a little
9:19
Landing Pad also and this definitely is
9:22
going to be better than the one I've
9:24
been using the zippers are a lot more
9:25
sturdy I'm even noticing around back
9:27
here how much better the B portion is
9:30
and the
9:30
little vacation club one I've been using
9:33
and has a lot more pockets and room my
9:36
laptop and and all that so let me get
9:39
the go and charge this thing up see what
9:41
happens comes with this little case
9:43
definitely first time I ever use a drone
9:46
I think 2016 pretty heavily back in the
9:49
RV days I had I had one that I used
9:51
every day and that thing was
9:53
massive in comparison to the size of
9:55
this I wish back then that there was
9:58
something as teeny and tiny as this but
10:02
sign of the times everything gets
10:03
smaller and better in quality all right
10:06
threw a little hoodie on little jacket
10:09
light
10:10
jacket got the flying Contraption right
10:14
there hard to believe that I've already
10:17
put
10:18
almost 600
10:21
mil 597 mil I've already put on Mini
10:28
Marge son will be setting in about 2
10:30
hours a little over 2
10:32
hours also threw the shoes on
10:41
here had the Crocs on for a while I got
10:41
the new shoes
10:42
on another car right there it's a four-
10:46
seater yeah I love the fact that I
10:49
bought this this has been such a good
10:50
investment just cruising around
10:52
celebrating 600 mil I've already put on
10:54
this bad
10:56
boy that's wild not seeing the Christmas
10:58
tree up took it down the other
11:01
day Road is closed off though because
11:04
they did the flea farmer Art Market here
11:07
today we're just wrapping all that up
11:09
now already put the booth all away and
11:10
they're probably going to remove these
11:12
stanions very soon sure at some point
11:14
it'll be able to before the end of the
11:15
day I'll be able to drive back down
11:16
Market Street for the first time in a
11:18
while I wasn't able to drive down the
11:19
other day they were taking the Christmas
11:20
tree down and now because of the farmer
11:22
market but I think that's about done so
11:24
I should be able to drive down it by the
11:25
end of the day I'm going to go get
11:27
myself a second cup of coffee for the
11:28
day quite a bit of time has passed since
11:30
the first coffee was home doing some few
11:33
things and now I need another one here
11:35
throughout the cusp or the continuation
11:38
of the day it need a second cup a second
11:40
cup for today definitely hear a lot of
11:42
birds up in these trees lot of birds up
11:44
in these trees so I parked mini Marge
11:46
over there on the other side of the
11:48
theater like over that way walked over
11:50
strabucks got the coffee I'm going to go
11:52
back and I charge the Drone up a little
11:54
bit not fully charged but enough to just
11:55
test it out get a I'm just going to see
11:57
how it works with the S mini SD car and
11:59
all that and uh see how it can dump it
12:01
in to the video and hopefully start
12:04
utilizing that throughout the course of
12:06
travels would like to fly it over the
12:07
water but because it's a new piece of
12:09
technology I was used to the ones I used
12:11
to use pretty pretty good with flying
12:14
those but because I haven't flown one in
12:15
a long time I'm going to keep it try to
12:17
keep it in some safe spots I don't want
12:19
to I want the I don't want thing to get
12:21
lost in the water right off the bat so
12:24
just do a little test run little test
12:26
run got to test it out today before
12:28
leaving tomorrow because I definitely
12:30
don't want to be in a new country trying
12:32
to test the tech technology out for the
12:34
first time it's a nice day out really is
12:37
nice late afternoon I should
12:50
say find a nice little Clear Spot
12:50
and test this thing out I downloaded
12:53
this little app I watched a tutorial
12:55
video for I this is for the F28
13:00
and this kind these kind of extend out
13:01
these are the little holders that's the
13:03
antenna the phone mounts right up on top
13:05
of there the little this here flips
13:08
up and then the back of that is the
13:11
battery but this we fold it up the phone
13:14
goes right on top of
13:16
that and then the SD card is inside
13:19
where the battery goes I put the little
13:20
mini SD is SD in there let me reread the
13:24
instructions one more time just let them
13:26
sink in and see what we got
13:29
all right I think it might be ready hit
13:31
record a
13:34
second uh full access what am I
13:40
doing oh cancel
13:43
that I don't know what's going
13:47
on let's say
13:53
start there we go I think we're good to
13:54
go hit
13:59
record ah it's
13:59
recording I think it's recording right
14:03
now how do this thing take
14:11
off got to calibrate
14:11
it
14:22
okay vertically
14:22
calibrated this is really a big
14:26
pain I do remember doing this with my
14:28
other one though
15:11
gracious all right off I am going over
15:11
the water said I wasn't going to but me
15:13
turn this thing around bring it back
15:15
here to
15:22
me okay it's not the not the most stable
15:22
thing ever definitely not the most
15:24
stable thing ever but I'm looking at
15:25
myself
15:26
here and come in hot come in in hot
15:30
okay this is definitely not going to be
15:32
the best scenario but it's better than
15:35
nothing at this
15:41
point yeah it's definitely not it's
15:41
probably once it's level like that it's
15:43
good I can see myself there pretty
15:57
mosquito how's it going
16:23
there do the gimbal downward a little
16:23
bit adjusting the
16:25
gimble the gimble back up
16:29
you know what it's better than
16:31
nothing it'll do for this this
16:34
trip again got to definitely get the
16:37
hang of it charge the batteries up a
16:39
little bit more
16:50
but wow I have not utilized a drone in a
16:51
while
17:05
so the last drone I had years ago there
17:05
was no stabilization issues at
17:11
all again I'm just going to use this for
17:11
just a
17:12
couple couple things here and there I'm
17:14
not going to go too wild with it
17:26
but all right it's official we got a
17:26
little eye in the sky not too high up
17:28
but whoa hello hello hi he oh get back
17:31
get back get back get back how do I turn
17:35
it off once I land this
17:42
thing that's what I'm wondering how do
17:42
you
17:54
uh land it right over there on the
17:54
ground just going to land it right there
17:56
on the ground and truthfully I don't
17:58
even know how often I will end up using
18:00
this but if I'm in a area I need to get
18:02
a little different perspective I think
18:04
it could end up being good and who knows
18:06
maybe I'll I'll Master this one and get
18:10
a little bit better with get the foot
18:13
with the footage but that
18:14
was was weird the the gimbal is not the
18:17
best and when you're going forward it
18:19
just gets all kind of wonky but they're
18:22
better ones out there but this is kind
18:24
of a last second deal because the one I
18:26
was wasn't able to be delivered before I
18:28
left
18:29
because the holidays a lot of things
18:30
were sold out you know with Christmas
18:33
and and all that so wasn't able to get
18:36
the the one I wanted in time but this
18:38
will work you know for $160 though
18:41
really can't ask for
18:43
more that's pretty good price compared
18:46
to the one I want is like 1,000 bucks so
18:48
for 1 18 of the
18:51
price it's uh yeah not bad not bad the
18:54
road's not open yet oh they get R open
18:56
it now wait a second wait a second wait
18:57
wait back around I think I might be the
18:59
first one that's going to be able to
19:00
drive up here into the into the open
19:04
streets this will be my first time
19:06
driving down Market Street
19:08
since since uh before Christmas or since
19:10
before the 1st of December all the
19:12
Christmas stuff it's official there's a
19:14
car behind me but I am the first to
19:17
drive up into the now oh somebody just
19:19
dropped some silverware over at that
19:21
restaurant look at this completely clear
19:25
streets now the traffic's flowing behind
19:27
me timing it's all about
19:38
timing all right Marcus Street here I
19:38
come have not driven down Marcus Street
19:41
since I think the end of November
19:43
because all of December it was blocked
19:44
off oh oh never mind okay never mind
19:50
unless oh no I think he's in the process
19:53
of moving these too we just wait over
19:55
here see what happens no he's going to
19:57
move the ones up there
19:59
dang okay wasn't meant to be was it
20:02
meant to be yeah they really don't want
20:03
anybody going down Market
20:05
Street oh well next time all right
20:08
that's going to do it for today tomorrow
20:10
I leave I depart the country and head
20:15
International and when I return I will
20:17

20:19

20:22
magnets on the side of those
20:24
cabinets plenty of room for
20:27
magnets internet
20:34
