0:17
scooters they have i

0:45
where the official
0:46
visitor center is it's right over there
0:49

0:50
jumped on one of those scooters back
0:52
there but i wanted to finish my coffee
0:53
first so i'm just gonna
0:54
kind of meander up the way a bit another
0:56
ticket stand here
0:58
orlando ticket not a stand it's a store
1:03
a little bit of water in the road i do
1:05
not believe that is from rain but from
1:07
the sprinklers that are kind of oozing
1:09
out
1:09
into the street although it does look
1:11
very cloudy so it might get a little
1:12
precipitation today
1:14
oh got some tourists going up there on
1:15
the sky flyer no thank you i'm gonna sit
1:17
out on that one no thank you
1:19
yeah that is up there 300 feet 400 feet
1:23
give or take
1:23
and just circling around i have not
1:26
built up the gumption
1:27
to go on this quite yet maybe one day
1:29
but i don't see this happening anytime
1:31
in the near future
1:32
located in the icon orlando formerly the
1:35
orlando eye park this gigantic ferris
1:37
wheel which i've been up in a few times
1:39
looks as if they're still running the
1:40
holiday train through here even a couple
1:42
days after
1:43
new year's still holiday train in full
1:46
effect the pearl
1:47

1:51
all along i drive including one two
1:54
three four five here that i have my
1:55
choice i'm gonna pick one of these
2:19
i chose one without a kickstand i can
2:19
always switch it out if i need to
2:29
the name of this one is abe i guess abe
2:29
does not
2:30
necessarily require a kickstand also the
2:33
break is a little different than the
2:34
other ones i used last week
2:36
it doesn't have a hand brake it just has
2:38
a little thumb
2:39
break right over here it states that the
2:42
world's tallest
2:43
slingshot and drop tower coming soon
2:48
right here to icon park that'll be
2:51
exciting
2:52
i like this miniature golf course
2:53
pirates cove there is a full-size pirate
2:56
ship right there
2:57
and a waterfall theming on point
3:50

4:05
transportation around here
4:25
we got some hub grass here mary hub
4:25
grass

4:46
looking uh kind of
4:47
futuristic been to a number of events
4:50
here
4:51
over the years none that are taking
4:53
place currently though
4:55
now cross over the street to the west
4:57
concourse of the same convention center
5:00
this whole area is very expansive
5:30
looks as if at some point in the near
5:30
future they're going to be redoing the
5:32
sidewalk i'm seeing a lot of these
5:33
markings
5:34
all around here even more examples right
5:37
through here
5:38
see how they have it all kind of chalked
5:40
up just kind of walking it through this
5:43
section
5:44
says caution a nesting hawk
5:47
is in this area and judging by the way
5:50
that gentleman is looking swooping down
5:53
if i go through here at a quick speed
5:55
the nesting hawk
5:58
might yeah i don't know i'm just gonna
6:01
just gotta walk through here
6:03
you're around nesting hawk
6:07
also this dave and buster's over here
6:09
used to be race rock
6:11
way back in the day i kind of find it
6:13
most comfortable to ride with this
6:15
feet side by side like this yeah major
6:18
development's going to be taking place
6:49
wow quite a few helicopters
6:50
circling over it as well well they're
6:53
just passing by they're not really
6:54
circling over it but
6:56
there are some helicopters overhead
7:32
obviously it's seen better days
7:32
very fascinating dinosaur there
7:54
just tucked away back here off
7:54
international drive
7:56
kind of hidden about a block off the
7:59
main road
8:08
looks as if the river is dried up as
8:08
well oh another dyno
8:12
it's like a very angry one right over
8:13
there tucked away in the foliage
8:16
and the name suits it because there is a
8:18
volcano right up there
8:20
it's no longer being utilized
8:25
definitely a volcano i always see signs
8:28
like this and i think about
8:29
following the instructions that are
8:31
listed i went in this ihop and asked
8:34
about
8:35
their mini flavored milkshakes you know
8:37
not to purchase one but just
8:38
you know following the rules of the sign
8:40
i went inside and just
8:42
inquired about the mini flavored
8:44
milkshakes they have
8:46
in great detail it'd probably be a
8:48
little too busy to
8:50
accommodate i'm not gonna do it
8:54
always a fun spot hogan's beach shop
8:58
it's not anywhere near the beach i just
9:00
hopped off the scooter
9:03

9:04
7-eleven
9:07
hogan's beach shop pretty cool place
9:10
just waiting to cross over international
9:12

9:16
waiting patiently at the light that used
9:18
to be the epic mcdonald's and
9:20
