welcome everyone

Adam the Wu here is recording us Monday
0:04
October 3rd 2022. it's a couple minutes
0:06
shy of 7 P.M
0:09
and I'm about to consume a piping hot
0:11
caffeinated beverage
0:16
oh that's one
0:16
warm
0:18
kind of hot in these rhinos
0:22
take a look at those storm clouds
0:23
obviously the hurricane has
0:27
come and gone
0:29
But Central Florida always has some
0:31
inclement weather around this time of
0:32
the year summer
0:34
into fall
0:36
this is going to be a walk and talk
0:38
because I'm going to be walking and I'm
0:40
going to be talking I'm going to be
0:42
taking a long walk
0:44
with a short pier
0:49
except that's up here just completely
0:49
stops so I'm gonna have to go up here
0:50
and turn around will not be completely
0:52
walking off the water the other day when
0:55
the winds rolled through here when I
0:56
came back to check on my Homestead
0:58
I noticed that this was kind of slanted
1:02
at an angle
1:04
because the the wind or debris had
1:07
pushed this up but now it is kind of
1:09
leveled off a little bit oh and it
1:11
appears as if the water has subsided
1:13
down there
1:15
a little bit as well but nonetheless
1:22
inviting you to join me on this little
1:22
stroll around celebration lake lake
1:24
Reinhardt shall you
1:30
it's good yes rocking chairs are back
1:30
here on the stair step
1:32
a little placard here has been
1:34
unsubmerged
1:37
and
1:40
got a gator over there
1:41
right there in the water
1:44
one of the Gators here
1:46
it's been named cool
1:48
my friend Daphne when she visited
1:51
I think that Gator looks very cool with
1:53
a k
1:55
so ever since ever since then
2:03
call him this Gator cool
2:14
there are two or three of these in the
2:14
water in fact the other day when the
2:15
swamps over across the walkway were
2:18
filled up there were more than two but
2:20
this
2:21
this is one of the Staples here in the
2:23
water
2:25
look at this
2:27
I didn't even notice
2:29
that there is a there is I almost said
2:31
squirrel I didn't mean to call you a
2:32
squirrel Turtle there's a turtle walking
2:35
up here to the Shoreline it just
2:38
submerged itself
2:45
in case you haven't already
2:45
figured out this is going to be a very
2:46
casual video
2:56
I want to talk about
2:56
how I basically have no earthly clue
2:59
what in the hell
3:01
popping up now
3:03
see the entire torso and tail good sized
3:06
Gator I don't know maybe
3:08
six feet maybe five and a half feet
3:10
definitely not a huge by any means a
3:12
decent size
3:15
but I have no idea what in the heck I'm
3:17
going to be doing this October I have
3:19
some ideas and the reason I do not have
3:21
a consummate game plan is because the
3:25
Rays have made it to the postseason
3:27
Tampa Bay Rays and I do not know how far
3:30
they will get in the postseason they're
3:32
in the wild card but in order for them
3:33
to get to the World Series they got to
3:35
go through the Wild Card the ALDS the
3:37
ALCS division series American League
3:40
Division Series what ALDS stands for
3:42
American League Championship Series
3:46
ALCS and then to the World Series so it
3:49
could be a short month it could be a
3:51
long month depending on if they get
3:53
eliminated or not
3:54
and looks as if they're doing a little
3:56
work on the signage here on this
3:58
restaurant
3:59
reggiano's I haven't eaten in there yet
4:01
I've eaten at the diner on the other
4:02
side
4:03
kind of catty corner to Market Street
4:05
but I haven't eaten at the Italian place
4:07
I think it's an Italian place reggiano's
4:08
yeah it was called something else and
4:10
then it just kind of changed ownership
4:12
recently all right cool if you want some
4:14
of this
4:15
hot vanilla latte the steaming hot
4:17
vanilla latte
4:20
I know it's very tempting
4:45
also
4:45
the sky looks amazing at this hour
4:52
dusk into sunset
4:52
oh it's a lighter video than normal
5:39
yeah that's sunset
5:39
the sky
5:42
is alive
5:52
now as far as the baseball postseason
5:52
goes just to try to give a quick
5:54
explanation
5:55
Razer in the American League
5:58
by tonight or tomorrow morning as the
6:00
recording of This should know who
6:02
they'll be playing in the Wild Card
6:03
whether it be the Cleveland used to be
6:05
the Cleveland Indians now it's called
6:06
the Cleveland guardians or
6:08
the
6:10
Toronto Blue Jays now I do not have a
6:12
passport so if they were to play in the
6:14
Wild Card the Blue Jays they would not
6:16
have home field advantage that would
6:18
have to be on up in Toronto in Canada my
6:22
passport expired six months ago I have
6:24
not renewed it so I would not be able to
6:25
go to that there is a possibility that I
6:28
could hop a flight to Cleveland don't
6:30
know if I'll do that
6:31
if they were that they would come back
6:33
to Tropicana Field starting with game
6:34
three over in Saint Pete for the
6:37
American League Division Series now if
6:38
they play Toronto and win against them
6:41
they would play the Houston Astros that
6:45
would kind of be how the bracket would
6:47
go for the ALDS or if they played
6:49
Cleveland and won against them they
6:52
would go to Tropicana Field for game
6:54
three and four of the ALDS
6:57
against the Yankees
6:59
and then it would go from there if they
7:00
were to beat the Yankees ALCS if they
7:02
were to win that and go to the World
7:03
Series now I have a lot of friends who
7:05
are national league fans who would be
7:07
rooting for the Cardinals who are in the
7:10
National League playoffs the Padres
7:13
Dodgers and I have promised all those
7:16
friends that if for some reason it was
7:18
Rey's and their teams
7:20
in the World Series there's a good
7:22
chance might go to a game so it's going
7:24
to be an interesting postseason
7:26
but I do not know how this month will
7:28
play out all right enough technical
7:30
baseball talk even though it's kind of
7:32
layman's terms but that's kind of what's
7:34
going on and I have not seen the
7:35
fountain off in a while but so as the
7:37
bird flies as the crow flies or as a
7:40
stork or any other foul will fly it's 2
7:42
197 miles to Burbank now Tropicana feel
7:45
this just gives an example Saint Pete is
7:48
where the shop is 104 miles 104 miles
7:51
from this spot biggest complaint is
7:53
people from Tampa don't want to drive to
7:55
Saint Pete which is like a half hour
7:56
drive I am commuting all the way over
7:58
from here I have a little more kind of
8:00
lackadaisical open schedule than someone
8:03
trying to get off work at you know say
8:04
five or six pm and trying to make it to
8:06
the game so I kind of understand that
8:07
but also I see the other side my side I
8:10
am taking a hike of a commute to get to
8:12
the trough so I don't think the distance
8:14
thing or even the fact that it's indoors
8:16
is really the main people reason people
8:19
aren't going I just don't know if Tampa
8:21
and Saint Pete and Florida is a baseball
8:24
a baseball state which is kind of always
8:27
odd to make us literally one of the best
8:29
teams in the game has been for a long
8:31
time they've been in the postseason
8:32
pretty consistently
8:34
over the past you know 10 15 years give
8:37
it a team started in 98.
8:40
I think maybe it's because they don't
8:41
really have like a big name player
8:44
like an hour approvals or Aaron judge or
8:47
anything like that
8:49
but a pretty solid lineup we'll see what
8:51
happens in the postseason I really love
8:53
living in Celebration
8:55
I just love it
8:56
I love being close enough till I can
8:59
just walk downtown walk around walk
9:01
around the lake take a stroll on my bike
9:04
or my scooter if I so choose
9:06
it just get the Vibes I also like being
9:08
really close you know
9:10
five six seven eight miles ten minute
9:12
drive commute to any of the Disney
9:14
properties here at wdw so that's nice
9:17
that's nice as well so I was out in
9:20
Southern California
9:22
for a couple weeks I was out there for
9:24
d23 and some other things went to
9:26
Disneyland a couple days I went to hhn
9:28
Halloween Horror Nights but not scary
9:31
farm which has been a tradition for me
9:33
when it comes to each and every year
9:35
since I've either lived out there or
9:38
visited out there I wasn't able to go to
9:39
that because they pushed their opening
9:41
night of their hot up a week had to get
9:43
to Salt Lake City for the Salt Lake City
9:45
Comic convention fanx which a couple
9:48
events out there my sister was out there
9:50
as well so I was hanging out with her
9:52
and her husband and doing some family
9:54
stuff and enjoying SLC so I wasn't able
9:58
to do haunted hayride and I was not all
10:01
look at how beautiful this is I wasn't
10:03
able to do haunted hayride
10:05
Griffith Park and I also was not able to
10:07
do they're having something called
10:07
shacktoberfest Shaquille O'Neal is doing
10:10
a Haunt at the Queen Mary I believe it
10:12
was just kind of like the Queen Mary
10:13
haunt except now you can't go on the
10:14
boat and Shaq took it over Shaquille
10:16
O'Neal used to play for the magic
10:18
everyone knows him as a Laker I know him
10:20
as his first year as rookie year and a
10:22
year after that playing for the magic
10:25
I digress if for some reason the Rays
10:28
get eliminated
10:30
later in the month I probably will hop a
10:32
plane
10:33
tentative plants I'm just take all this
10:35
with a grain of salt
10:37
I changed my mind every three seconds
10:38
but right now I'm thinking if for some
10:40
reason I do not want the razor to be
10:42
eliminated but if they are I probably
10:43
end up back in SoCal before the end of
10:46
the month and maybe try to hit some of
10:48
those haunts before they end and
10:50
celebrate Halloween out there if the
10:51
Rays do not get eliminated and go to the
10:53
World Series I'm in it for the long haul
10:55
I will be at a heck of a lot of games
10:56
rooting them on I have been waiting for
10:58
this the postseason since spring
11:01
training I am stoked and if for some
11:03
reason they win the complete World
11:05
Series which is at the in early early
11:08
November
11:10
I still think I want to do either a road
11:12
trip or start traveling maybe go to some
11:14
places I don't usually go in November
11:16
because December is going to be a lot of
11:19
Central Florida stuff
11:20
you know the parks with the Christmas
11:22
decorations up things like that
11:24
some family stuff going on I always like
11:27
celebrating the holidays and being
11:28
around home this is incredible okay look
11:31
at this how perfect is this sunset
11:34
but in November no matter what happens
11:37
I'm gonna travel
11:39
maybe some back road stuff maybe just
11:40
hop a plane and go some places I don't
11:42
usually go but that's kind of what I'm
11:44
leaning towards in November either way
11:47
you know I just kind of go through
11:48
phases with things where I like to stay
11:50
put go to a lot of theme parks go to a
11:52
lot of conventions be around a ton of
11:53
people I love being around a lot of
11:55
people but after a while I really need
11:57
my I really need some space
11:59
kind of a private person kind of an
12:01
introvert even though it might not seem
12:03
like it
12:04
so sometimes I just need that crowd
12:07
detox
12:08
and after conventions after
12:11
you know the hoot nannies and hullabaloo
12:14
of the theme parks and being packed and
12:15
conventions and now the baseball season
12:17
and postseason and crowds there I think
12:19
after it's all said and done I'm gonna
12:21
need probably a month of just kind of
12:23
some Solitude and travel in a car okay
12:27
gonna keep walking and even though the
12:30
main lake has subsided this little bike
12:32
trail over here where I saw the gator
12:33
the gator startled me over here the
12:35
other night has not subsided the water's
12:38
still standing over there which I was
12:40
kind of thinking that maybe by a few
12:41
days after it would have kind of dried
12:43
up a little bit but it has not dried up
12:46
so I'll kind of show where I might end
12:49
up in October I'll show some big maybes
12:53
because knowing me I'm going to be very
12:54
tempted if the Rays play away games to
12:58
hop on over to those away games in
13:00
anywhere that's in the U.S so I'll kind
13:01
of show the what the schedule could be
13:03
or the the cities I might end up and
13:06
this is all just off the cuff this month
13:08
is going to be off the cut October
13:10
off the cuff October
13:12
now notice it says if the postseason
13:15
started today there's still a few days
13:17
left so this could be adjusted just a
13:19
little bit so I'm really looking at the
13:21
American League side the national league
13:22
side not so much until the series
13:24
because none of those teams except the
13:27
one that goes to the bracket of the
13:28
World Series
13:29
will the Rays be playing again so I'm
13:31
not really kind of really paying too
13:33
much attention to the National League
13:34
side however look at the American League
13:37
side so if this if the season started at
13:39
this particular moment which after
13:41
tonight or the next night the only
13:43
difference that might change would be
13:45
that Tampa Bay right there which is the
13:47
number six slot of the wild card over
13:49
here on the far left with the CB in
13:50
Cleveland could move down and Seattle
13:52
could be replaced so it could be Seattle
13:54
and Cleveland and it could be Tampa Bay
13:57
and the Blue Jays let's just say it's
13:59
this there's a possibility that I could
14:01
go to Cleveland
14:03
cannot go to Toronto simply because I do
14:05
not have the passport unless I can get a
14:06
passport in the next couple days but
14:08
let's say they defeat the teams in the
14:10
wild card and they either play the
14:12
Yankees or Houston
14:15
so obviously I'll be at the Tropicana
14:16
Field games 100 will definitely be there
14:19
but there's a possibility maybe I get
14:21
online to the Bronx or a plane to
14:23
Houston as well so who knows what the
14:26
what the future will hold and then any
14:28
of these teams could possibly be
14:30
you know this is a big if but if the
14:33
double Rays end up making it to the
14:35
series all the way here to this middle
14:36
circles
14:37
and they face
14:39
the Braves
14:40
I'll go to Atlanta they face the Dodgers
14:43
I'll go to La they face the Padres I'll
14:46
go to San Diego they face the Mets I'll
14:48
go to New York I would love to go to the
14:51
Phillies and of course the Cardinals so
14:53
there's a lot of options it's all up in
14:56
the air I do not know how this will
14:58
dictate and change the future of this
14:59
month for me
15:01
thinking out loud and big ifs big wins
15:06
well not Wednesday which I'm hoping for
15:08
but big wins w-h-e-n things happen and
15:11
coordinate I'll do other content in
15:14
those areas that I go to that'll kind of
15:16
pepper other stuff in around the game so
15:18
that's
15:19
I always try to do I wish I had a pepper
15:20
in other stuff besides just you know one
15:22
thing I time this very perfectly I had a
15:24
nice relaxing day
15:26
kind of got caught up on some sleep that
15:28
I needed been hitting the parks pretty
15:30
hard
15:31
recently so it's kind of nice to
15:34
Slumber a little bit do some stuff
15:35
around my home
15:40
and then just decided to do a little
15:40
walk and talk
15:46
see the little spiers of the theater
15:46
have been illuminated it's kind of fun
15:48
too because I've been keeping up with a
15:50
lot of the
15:51
you know people have been posting stuff
15:53
the analytics MLB things like that where
15:55
they're you know posting about what the
15:57
postseason will be and you know if
16:00
they'll just
16:01
anytime something is posted people chime
16:03
with their opinions and all those teams
16:05
that I showed are all mentioned in very
16:08
very bountifully
16:10
you know especially when it comes you
16:11
know the Yankees and stuff in teams like
16:13
that but even all the other teams rarely
16:15
will you ever see anyone online chime in
16:19
that the Rays have a chance so I it
16:21
would be awesome
16:23
if they pulled it off I would love to go
16:25
to a World Series here in Central
16:27
Florida well kind of all because of
16:29
Tampa's like a couple hours but you know
16:31
what I mean I would love it last year
16:33
they did not make it to the World Series
16:34
but I was in such a baseball you know I
16:38
was really getting into baseball so much
16:39
that I just wanted to go to a game so my
16:42
uncle who lives in Atlanta has been
16:45
following the Braves forever years and
16:47
years decades he had ever been to a
16:49
World Series game took him to a World
16:50
Series game had a great time it would be
16:53
neat if the Rays
16:56
played the Braves and I could go again
16:59
this time
17:01
watching the race against him that would
17:03
be cool
17:03
so no matter who plays I have someone
17:06
that I either know or someone in my life
17:08
rooting for another team
17:11
could be a lot of fun
17:13
a lot of big gifts keeping my fingers
17:15
crossed so just to clarify
17:17
this month before the end of this month
17:19
there is a possibility that I could be
17:21
not only in Central Florida and not only
17:23
a Tropicana Field in Saint Pete but one
17:25
of these places I'm about to list
17:27
Cleveland
17:29
Seattle
17:31
the Bronx Houston
17:34
Atlanta
17:43
San Diego St Louis or Philly
17:43
there's a possibility that before the
17:45
end of the month I could be at one or
17:47
more of those spots also tucked away
17:49
over here next to
17:51
the lake so during the hurricane a few
17:53
days ago they moved all the bicycles
17:55
here which is like a it's like a bicycle
17:57
taxi service where you pay a couple
17:59
dollars you do it on an app to give you
18:01
a code you unlock the bike and you can
18:02
ride around before I bought the bike
18:04
that I have here I would use these
18:06
sometimes they have not replaced them
18:08
since the storm I kind of wonder if they
18:11
have just scrapped this as a business
18:12
maybe this was already kind of uprooted
18:14
before the storm went in
18:20
it's located kind of over here next to
18:20
the far end of the hotel and the lake
18:27
I also have a lot of Disney Vacation
18:27
Club DVC stays this month
18:29
so I will be staying at some of those
18:31
hotels in between games or after
18:35
you know I don't want to put it in the
18:36
universe if they're not going to make it
18:37
far but so that will be kind of
18:39
happening
18:40
through now until basically middle of
18:43
the month so expect some DVC Stars Also
18:46
let's start spinning around sometimes
18:48
that's spinning around here at the
18:49
Bohemian celebration hotel with the
18:52
lighthouse up top there too so expect
18:53
some DVC studies there's going to be a
18:55
few
18:56
yeah I knew they'd turn the lights on
18:58
CE the sun goes down not only do
19:00
vampires start to appear
19:04
oh that is that never happens here I
19:06
haven't seen Kiefer Sutherland walking
19:07
around
19:09
but also the lights are illuminated
19:12
celebration theater still not open a
19:14
decade closed
19:19
don't always have the ability to walk
19:19
right through the middle of this thing
19:20
when the water's on
19:22
I don't really ever oh my gosh look at
19:24
that freaking sunset
19:27
mean the sun's pretty much already
19:28
subsided over the top of the
19:31
The Horizon the bottom of the Horizon
19:33
but yeah take a look at this this is
19:34
just awesome
19:36
you know I love living in Southern
19:38
California in fact I miss Southern
19:39
California dramatically
19:41
I love being close to the wdw parks here
19:43
I love being so close to my parents only
19:45
live like 40 minutes from me
19:47
so they are very very close by
19:52
and I love the weather
19:52
in Southern California far more Superior
19:55
than the weather here I mean it's just
19:57
without a doubt Southern California
19:59
weather is the best place I've ever
20:00
lived however not a lot of cloud
20:02
formations and not a lot of sunsets that
20:04
have this magnitude of beauty so that's
20:07
something to be said about Central
20:08
Florida
20:09
but that's going to do it for today I've
20:11
said so much you have said so little I
20:12
appreciate you watching and listening
20:15

20:17
nothing about future plans
20:20
and for just
20:21
being around
20:23
listening to me talk listen to my
20:25
Journeys listen to my Adventures people
20:27
always ask sometimes what do you do for
20:28

20:30

20:31
in your life I go I
20:33
point a camera at things and point out
20:35
the obvious
20:39
it's kind of a that's be kind of my job
