2:34
heading towards the platform there this
2:36
is the great ceremonial house
2:38
heading towards and you can see those
2:40
those cross beams up top there
2:41
that's where the monorail station is it
2:43
does go through there if you're taking
2:44
it
2:45
from transportation ticket center to
2:46
magic kingdom but
2:49
not when you're doing the removing the
2:50
beams
2:52
oh they're doing their construction's
2:53
already taking place oh yeah the beams
2:55
are going away you're right
2:56
we got the mat down here oh look you see
2:58
the palm tree leaf
3:00
swaying in the breeze and as you can see
3:02
they have the tree up in here looking
3:04
very very festive and beautiful
3:06
as always and the current iconic
3:09
centerpiece here
3:10
will be a friendly face saying come on
3:12
in everyone
3:13
and even the interior of the gift shop
3:16
all these full-sized kids with a very
3:17
very
3:18
full-sized characters about my height
3:19
wearing wearing all the the appropriate
3:23
deck decor as you would right there
3:25
around their torsos
3:27
reiterating the fact that the monorail
3:29
service is unavailable
3:31
from this resort so you're going to have
3:33
to either take bus or
3:34
watercraft transportation or or walk
3:37
standing on the patio at trader sam's
3:40
in the show where we'll be traversing to
3:42
after this we're going to head over
3:44
there to the grand
3:45
floridian across seven seas lagoon as
3:48
far as i know this
3:50
section has not reopened
3:55
since everything kind of began this
3:55
isn't open right no
3:57
not yet i'm hoping soon we really want
4:00
to get back into trader sand
4:02
every time i see palm trees in this
4:04
fashion it reminds me of it's a mad mad
4:06
mad mad world it's going to be buried
4:08
under hidden under a big w
4:10
and yes you can get a doe up here at the
4:12
pineapple
4:15
i still you're still in the frame you're
4:16
still in the frame the pineapple
4:19
nice now i just had a coffee i i'll get
4:22
it i'll get a treat or some sort of
4:24
item as the day progresses but yeah just
4:27
just safe to know that
4:28
pineapple and i is open for dole whip
4:30
consumption and purchasing
4:32
they do not have the version that's over
4:33
in magic kingdom you know not too far
4:35
away just like the next
4:36
couple properties over where it has the
4:39
the pistachio added in they do not have
4:41
that
4:42
in here however they do have a lime
4:45
version which i've never tried the lime
4:47
i think that's probably pretty good too
4:48
step back inside to get kind of a up on
4:50
the balcony view downward at the
4:52
the lobby area and this is where you
4:54
usually would walk out to the monorail
4:56
but it's all boarded up for now
4:57
while they're completing the tasks at
4:59
hand inside captain cooks which is a
5:02
quick service
5:03
walk-up restaurant they have a couple of
5:05
dessert items a few couple different
5:06
cupcakes and a brownie
5:08
themed around the christmas holiday
5:10
season at the scaffolding up here doing
5:12
a little bit of that
5:13
maintenance and new a new overhaul on
5:16
this
5:16
facade if you cut if you look you have
5:19
to have an eagle eye we can see the the
5:20
top of the castle over at
5:22
mk in the distance and walking this
5:24
pathway
5:25
along the beach now to grand floridian
5:29
because dylan's creating a little
5:32
little disney magic it's going to be a
5:35
it's going to be a hidden mickey i'm
5:37
trying my best
5:39
i can already see it forming
5:52
so cool
5:52
just seeing the monorail cruising by wow
5:56
check this out you can really see tron
5:58
really well it's like
5:59
almost like looming the same size as the
6:01
train station over there
6:03
and also off to the side space mountain
6:07
if you're looking for a good photo op
6:09
next to the wedding pavilion you can
6:10
walk out onto this
6:12
little grass area and looking through
6:15
the archway
6:16
there is the castle right down the
6:18
middle there now it's over there
6:21
up and the ferry boat going across
6:24
and this bird has a great view
6:27
of cinderella castle yep you have a
6:30
you have a pretty good what's a bird's
6:32
eye view for you even though you're
6:34
you're not flying you're
6:35
you're on the ground but you're still a
6:37
bird so it is a bird's eye
6:39
right with a nice sunburst
6:42
going directly above to the platform
6:45
gonna go walk up to the second level
6:48
to get the tree reveal on the balcony
6:51
heading in
6:57
love it right over top got this classic
6:57
vehicle before making my way in and then
6:59
you shift this way and you can see the
7:01
deck
7:01
decorations that are just here kind of
7:03
dangling on the the roof line going in
7:05
with the flowers over there
7:06
and then once in the lobby we got the
7:08
small tree in the foreground here and
7:10
then
7:10
in the distance there is a massive
7:13
tree take a look at the size
7:17
of that thing got a hidden mickey there
7:19
in the ornament we got a couple of swans
7:22
right there hugging each other some
7:24
swans and
7:26
this could be jolly old saint nick
7:28
perhaps
7:29
now in past years there usually is a
7:31
very gargantuan gingerbread house here
7:34
and there's quite a few people wait in
7:35
line to get a piece of it you can taste
7:37
pieces of what the house itself is made
7:40
out of and other treats but this year
7:42
it's not happening but it does make
7:43
sense 2020 has been a very interesting
7:46
year so it's understandable next year
7:48
something we'll have to definitely look
7:49
forward to to have the gingerbread house
7:50
back
7:51
and there's mickey right there with the
7:53
santa cap on hello mickey
7:55
santa mickey all right now i'm gonna
7:57
take the new walkway over to magic
7:59
kingdom first time i've ever walked on
8:00
the new walkway not taking the monorail
8:02
gonna walk it
8:03
historic occasion of course cruising
8:05
over in this would be pretty amazing but
8:07
not allowed to it's just it's just for
8:09
looks for many years i would be
8:11
on the monorail and say it'd be great if
8:13
you guys would look down and say it'd be
8:14
great if you could just
8:15
walk along from this resort to magic
8:19
kingdom and it finally happened about
8:20
two i think two or three weeks ago it
8:22
opened
8:23
and it begins right over in this area so
8:26
you go under the beam and
8:30
just stroll along that is a wonderful
8:33
sign right there this did not exist
8:34
until
8:35
within the last month and with a pretty
8:37
good view they're just
8:38
going two and fro it goes along the the
8:41
parallel of seven seas here
8:43
directly above and we're gonna get the
8:46
good angle
8:47
with the castle off in the distance over
8:50
there
8:51
this is a sight that has not been seen
8:53
from this
8:54
angle until recently
8:57
let's walk over that bridge
9:09
it's a christmas miracle
9:12
now this is the moment where you will be
9:14
able to see this angle
9:15
in everyone's video
9:19
right here
9:27
mine went out of focus and there seems
9:27
to be quite a few people on this not
9:28
just
9:29
us standing on this bridge you can see
9:31
the water the floats that go out
9:33
you know the electric light similar to
9:35
the electric light parade
9:37
floats that goes across seven seas
9:38
lagoon and there we go
9:46
should also be noted that this bridge
9:46
will be able to shift
9:47
so the bridge will shift diagonally or
9:50
perpendicular to make way for those
9:53
floats
9:55
to head out to two seven seas
9:58
right over here
10:04
one thing that's really noticeable is
10:04
the height
10:05
ratio so over there it's like 15 20 feet
10:08
up
10:09
but then it goes down to 12 and then 10
10:12
and maybe even lower than that
10:14
as it cruises along to the platform
10:18
in front of magic kingdom if you were
10:21
over there which you're not allowed to
10:22
be
10:23
you could probably just reach up and
10:25
touch the bottom of the monorail bay
10:32
very low never knew that gonna continue
10:32
the walk over to contemporary but did
10:35
want to show
10:36
the magic kingdom and i know you might
10:39
be thinking when the heck are they gonna
10:41
board
10:42
the monorail it'll happen it'll happen
10:45
rest assured once we once we leave
10:48
the contemporary over there we'll do a
10:51
full monorail
11:05
i certainly do love this this is also
11:05
very tall i mean it looks like it's
11:07
bigger than the contemporary
11:08
in general but it's probably about
11:10
probably halfway up because of the
11:12
the perspective of being way in the
11:14
foreground here
11:15
the sheer circumference on these
11:17
ornaments
11:19
like this is my hand in the magic band
11:22
yeah that's uh
11:29
this tree is massive
11:37
up up the escalator seeing a little
11:37
adornment here on the window says
11:40
joy to the swirled i haven't been in
11:42
here since uh when i stayed here back in
11:45
july which was an amazing experience
11:47
it's good to be back i'm not staying
11:48
here now i'm just walking through it but
11:50
good to see that again
11:52
quite an assortment at the contempo cafe
11:54
of holiday treats and goodies including
11:57
a
11:57
cinderella cupcake there is a chocolate
12:01
peppermint yule log

12:05

12:21

12:25
have a sweet tooth this is the
12:27
the place to be and oh goodness there
12:30

12:31
yet another one cruising through right
12:34
under the
12:34
beautiful mary blair
12:38
mural that she did and this
12:42
is what we're dealing with i went ahead
12:44
and got myself a meal not of the
12:46
dessert type but the spicy chicken
12:50
sandwich persuasion and
12:53
a little bit of soup of the day chicken
12:55
noodle soup
12:58
over there as well and fries
13:01

13:15
about ready to take a bite and see just
13:17
how spicy
13:32

13:32
oh man really good it's not that spicy
13:35
no that's a soup dessert oh man
13:39
i can get like a few more of these these
13:41
are really good it looks
13:43
like comforting for such a cold day too
13:45
oh yeah
13:46
not a bad view whatsoever you can see
13:48
the castle over there
13:50
taking the walkway back to magic kingdom
13:53
because they do not have a boat
13:55
currently that goes
13:56
from the contemporary over to
13:59
fort wilderness well four well four on
14:01
this campground
14:03
heading away from the shoreline at the
14:05
moment
14:06
and we're going to be circling around
14:09
you can see
14:10
a ferry boat over there that takes you
14:12
from ttc
14:14
magic kingdom and we're going to be
14:15
going across the water bridge
14:18
which is located right over here and the
14:20
road goes underneath it
14:21
and above it you would never know you
14:22
would think it was just a regular road
14:24
going over
14:25
the road below it but in fact a waterway
14:29
goes over that hence the name the water
14:31
bridge say goodbye to the castle
14:34
just peeking up over there look at a
14:35
little construction there at the train
14:37
station as well now this is the water
14:38
bridge here so underneath it is a
14:40
thoroughfare there's also some people
14:42
fishing out here on a fishing boat
14:44
oh yeah just cruising right by this
14:46
angle and that is
14:48
discovery island over there not a whole
14:50
heck of a lot left of river country
14:54
which was right over there at one point
14:56
for many years
14:57
and can't forget about the shoe tree
15:00
where people have tossed their shoes
15:02
into that tree itself right there look
15:04
at that all the shoes
15:06
in that tree it is a little gusty out
15:09
here
15:11
the windows
15:17
brisk little breeze oh look over here we
15:17
got a snowman
15:18
we have some penguins going down a slide
15:20
there's rudolph at the top he's about to
15:22
be brave enough to go down the slippery
15:25
slide the rvs and
15:26
campers all parked out here and with a
15:28
lot of festive holiday decor

15:33
wonder if anyone's home it says santa
