this is the view
0:03
from my hotel window look at the plane
0:05
going directly over
0:07
the hotel that's a pretty consistent
0:10
flow
0:11
every five minutes or so
0:20
just about to head back to the rental
0:20
car return area
0:23
from my accommodations
0:25
this is kind of confused though it says
0:27
lock your vehicle which i did during the
0:30
duration of it during the tenure of my
0:32
trip however
0:33
is this supposed to be the thief
0:35
or is this the person who rented the car
0:38
locking their car
0:40
cars and contests left at owner's risk
0:41
is this the owner
0:43
or is that the
0:45
thief
0:46
bending over right there i would imagine
0:48
that's someone with a key
0:50
because if not you know they break in
0:52
the window
0:57
welcome everyone adam the woo here as
0:57
the recording of this tuesday

1:32
you were not here a week you were here
1:33

1:35
about half what you did you've been here
1:36
a long time
1:37
i was here tuesday to tuesday
1:40
so a week yeah it's a week it's pretty
1:43
much a weekend i think you're ready to
1:44

1:46
night's game was very cold that was bone
1:48
chilling that was uh that was it's a
1:50
little warmer it's a little warmer today
1:53
we were up on the sixth floor was it
1:56
right up there number six
1:59
cowbell max who attended a few raised
2:02

2:03

2:05
the cubbies wish i could go back in time
2:07

2:09
i need a sports almond necklace he's
2:11
sticking around for a couple more days
2:13
but we're going back to florida
2:16
i will also be dropping jay off
2:19
his flight takes off about an hour
2:21
before mine
2:22
and he's flying into tampa i'm flying
2:24
into orlando
2:26
and the reason i'm showing up to the
2:28
clouds here
2:29
is i'll give the perspective of how
2:31
close the plane goes
2:33
after i drop j off i have to go take the
2:36
rental car in
2:37
and then take the shuttle over
2:55
and a little convenience store i
2:55
frequented quite a bit this week the
2:57
orchards at o'hare right next to the
2:58
airport
3:00
and you can't turn a rental car back in
3:01
without fueling it up having a full tank
3:04
if you do they charge you a little bit
3:05
extra
3:06
then what the
3:07
four dollars and eighty cents four
3:09
dollars eighty cents per gallon right
3:11
now
3:12
near the chicago illinois airport
3:15
got quite a few piping hot caffeinated
3:17
beverages from here this weekend
3:19
gonna get another one from duncan
3:30
all right just dropped off tampa j he's
3:30
on his way back to tampa i'm gonna go
3:32
drop off my rental car
3:34
and then off to orlando
3:43
and where i'm supposed to drop the
3:43
rental car off is a pretty good ways
3:45
from the air fort airport
3:48
itself but there is a shuttle
3:50
car returned right here
3:52
they go over this little great
4:06
proceed slowly
4:06
do not back up will cause tire damage
4:18
that always scares me
4:18
all right
4:21
i'm trying to hand the keys in
4:29
saying goodbye to that rental
4:29
and making my way up
4:31
to the shuttle follow the crosswalk
4:47
now i did not utilize the key drop
4:47
i handed it to one of the employees but
4:48
they do have a key drop
4:50
right here probably for after hours
5:01
fancy
5:05
also
5:05
there's buses that will go over to
5:07
o'hare
5:08
instead of
5:10
the train oh look at this
5:13
okay this looks familiar but we could go
5:14
this is where i picked up the keys
5:16
right down there
5:18
deja vu
5:19
pulling into
5:21
the station
5:28
i love the logo on the back of those
5:28
jackets
5:30
it's just like
5:32
the monorail
6:06
it's 11 52 a.m i believe my flight takes
6:07
at about 2 00
6:09
pm
6:11
illinois time and i arrive at 6 p.m
6:13
orlando time
6:15
but an hour time difference
6:33
and just like the trip here i am flying
6:33
united airlines
6:45
number one there
6:45
that's where i'm at real quick like
6:47
going to check the board
6:50
two flights to orlando one
6:53
arrives at
6:54
604 or no the other one this one departs
6:57
from 604.
6:58
mine is at 220. flight 2463
7:03
and this is good on time it is at gate
7:07
b2
7:09
so i gotta go find b2
7:12
it's not delayed so that's good a lot of
7:14
escalators
7:20
quite
7:20
a few
7:24
doesn't look too
7:24
long of a line to get through a little
7:26
checkpoint here about 10 15 20 minutes
7:28
always interesting to me how each
7:31
airport is a little bit different on
7:32
their screening process
7:34
the shoes
7:35
and my hoodie
7:37
had to go on the belt not in a tray
7:40
but my belt had to go in a tray
7:43
also my
7:45
bag
7:47
i can't even remember my bag had to go
7:48
in another bag went on the belt as well
7:51
and then take the laptop out but my
7:53
external keyboard they wanted left in
7:55
there and they ended up searching the
7:57
bag and my little axe body spray
8:01
is kind of what ended up
8:03
making them stop to check the bag for
8:05
the for the spray but i guess it was
8:07
under the amount of ounces so they let
8:09
it slide through the little deodorant
8:11
spray which when i went from orlando to
8:13
here
8:15
didn't make them check the bag
8:17
kind of confusing it's like every single
8:19
airport is a little bit different in
8:20
their
8:21
protocols put my shoes back on head over
8:24
to my gate i'm on my way now to be
8:27
two
8:28
who does the cheese take place here
8:30
eli's cheesesteak
8:32
as well
8:34
the order the dinosaur look at this
8:36
there's some dinosaur bones right up
8:42
nothing towering up there and it has a
8:44
facial covering on this dyna and here's
8:47
a smaller
8:48
non-skeletized version
8:54
of one of those magnificent creatures
8:54
just look past the wi-fi
8:56
banner
9:10
has the appropriate facial covering on
9:10
all the way up there you can even walk
9:13
underneath his hooves
9:15
right down here look there's
9:17
a couple of feet there a couple of feet
9:19
right over here as well and then like
9:21
looking up at the skeletal
9:23
torso
9:27
reaching out you got probably getting a
9:29
good view at all the planes arriving and
9:31
departing
9:32
from way up there
9:36
take a look at these socks
9:40
right there
9:40
called the socksmith
9:42
i know how much these are
9:45
they are
9:47
14.99
9:49
those are kind of neat probably can't
9:50
take this on the plane well i wouldn't
9:52
have room and carry on so i'm not doing
9:54
any checked luggage
10:01
this is a big popcorn town
10:01
with a little celebration here i'm going
10:03
to celebration but they're also
10:04
celebrating with some fireworks on this
10:06
tin here
10:07
eat it while it's fresh
10:14
i'm not getting any now this is looking
10:14
through the little sun shade here
10:16
this is not the gate i'm looking for
10:23
nor the droids i'm looking for
10:23
but if you peek underneath the sunshade
10:25
you get a better view here united
10:27
airlines
10:29
i'm looking for b2
10:32
so no sunshade
10:34
and
10:35
sunshade view and according to these
10:37
numbers i'm gonna be all the way at the
10:39
end this is b6
10:41
followed b b5 b4
10:45
well here's like an art gallery an
10:47
uncommon
10:49
gallery now these are kind of
10:51
interesting look at these little dolls
10:52
there's a sally there here's an alice
10:55
i've already had a coffee today
10:59
i'm gonna pass on this but i wanted to
11:01
show oh that's interesting
11:03
they have the indiana
11:06
you are here mugs even though i'm
11:07
technically in illinois they also have
11:10
the michigan
11:11
you are here mugs and they have chicago
11:14
they do not have any illinois
11:16
you are here mugs
11:18
they do have the teeny tiny chicago look
11:21
there's a little transportation device
11:24
that took to get over my rental car
11:26
to hear oh you know what i stand
11:27
corrected these are
11:29
the l train short for elevated train
11:51
i have one of these back home it's in my
11:51
closet oh this is different though this
11:53
is not only cool gel but there's a
11:55
little bit of bamboo in there i do have
11:57
one of these i just never use it the
11:59
airport that you're flying out of where
12:01
you spend some time in chicago the windy
12:04
city
12:05
established back in 1837
12:08
you can get those here at the airport as
12:09
well and some
12:11
little coffee mugs
12:13
down there i have more than enough time
12:15
before my flight departs
12:17
or starts to board
12:19
so i'm just kind of
12:21
meandering around oh look at that you
12:24
can see that
12:25
a little engine there on the wing
12:27
turning around
12:29
oh
12:30
and here's a here's a view
12:32
of the luggage going down the chute the
12:34
luggage chute
12:42
it's almost like a slide people it is a
12:44
slide
12:59
and a van
13:02
also looks like across the way is also
13:05
united
13:06
they have a couple of different areas
13:24
now this shows this is gate b2
13:24
and 140 is when i have to start loading
13:27
onto the plane with the 220 departure so
13:30
still about an hour until the plane
13:32
boards so that could possibly be
13:34
the plane that i'm going to be on
13:37
this who knows
13:38
or maybe that one's about to take off
13:40
and another one's going to arrive but
13:41
this is the gate b2
13:43
right there and the skies are looking
13:45
pretty promising it's a little little
13:47
overcast probably going to rain a little
13:49
bit but as of right now
13:51
shouldn't be any delays
13:53
now just one gate over at b4
13:56
getting a view of this one
13:58
getting the luggage being loaded up on
14:00
there
14:01
going up
14:02
up to a little
14:04
ramp
14:12
i know i'm fascinated by how planes work
14:12
and the loading process and
14:14
all the
14:15
everything that goes into
14:18
you know the behind the scenes if you
14:20
will and i'm not the only one
14:23
can't be the owner maybe i am the only
14:24
one
14:26
i don't think i'm the only one
14:33
and also that box van in the back there
14:33
that's the food that's the sky chefs bam
14:36
this is not my plane mine's over the
14:38
next one over at b2
14:49
it's not stopping now
14:51
there is a beeping mechanism
14:53
flowing through the halls of the airport
15:02
it's not stopping and good news still on
15:02
time with a 551 estimated arrival in
15:05
orlando 220 departure
15:08
out of
15:09
chicago
15:11
beat two you know sometimes i'll make a
15:13
mistake and i'll say orlando
15:14
international airport oia which i guess
15:17
is applicable too but really it's
15:19
it's mco all right it's 12 51 right now
15:23
it starts to board at 140.
15:31
this one is pulling into
15:35
into b1
15:35
b1
15:45
oh yeah
15:45
that is an n612 ux
15:50
that's the number on the side there
15:59
probably not the type
15:59
of plane
16:01
but just the coating on the plane to be
16:02
able to track it
16:08
that would be my guess i'm not an expert
16:08
and since i'm flying on united i should
16:11
probably point out this little bus
16:13
that's right here
16:14
for charles e taylor who was a master
16:17
mechanic award for the company
16:20
charles e taylor
16:22
has an homage to him in a sculpture form
16:27
right here this is charles
16:29
e taylor
16:30
right there to be eligible for the award
16:32
the person must have 50 years in
16:34
aviation maintenance as an accredited
16:36
mechanic still walking around a bit
16:39
all of this is still the same united
16:41
area
16:42
stretching all over there
16:45
just looking at a different window from
16:47
a different angle
16:49
and it continues that way too to
16:51
different gates
16:52
aha
16:54
here are all the concourses the b
16:57
and c concourses bird's eye perspective
17:02
up here
17:04
as shown there
17:06
there's a lot of bees it's a real
17:08
beehive
17:13
oh that's neat look from the what's
17:14
dangling from the roofs there
17:16
there are these little spheres
17:32
this is called wasting time until it's
17:32
time to board
17:34
that's basically what i'm doing i'm just
17:35
trying to amuse myself
17:37
by filming a video i appreciate you
17:39
watching but that's really
17:41
the whole purpose of this is just so i'm
17:43

17:45
making my way onto the plane i am in c
17:48
10 f row 10

18:58
900
19:00
around the back look at this
19:06
no remote control cars on this
19:06
don't even think about taking a remote
19:08
control car up and
19:09
the iowa
19:14
this little tv gizmo here
19:14
looks good from the 80s they even make
19:16
those anymore
19:17
and a walkman
21:43
every time i go through the clouds like
21:43
this i feel like i'm watching the intro
21:45
to the richard donner film superman
21:48
i feel like i'm chris reeves clark kent
21:52
alter ego superman
22:30
that double chime means we're about 10
22:30
000 feet seat belt sign is still on
22:32
please stay seated
22:34
until the captain turns the side off
22:36
wi-fi is available available for
22:38
purchase
22:56
down below down there's a winding river
23:00
there's no map on this flight so i can't
23:02
exactly tell
23:04
which river that is
23:16
saw me
23:47
i'm
23:47
trying to figure out where all these are
23:50
down here they almost look like
23:52
like running tracks there's like half a
23:55
dozen of them
24:34
okay i think i figured out what they are
24:34
they are retention
24:52
and your headrest stone
24:52
will collect any um
24:54
service items flight attendants prior to
24:56
landing and be seated
25:10
making a turn
25:11
preparing for landing
25:13
soon very soon
25:16
oh wow
25:31
i think that's universal studios right
25:32
i think those universal
25:43
and studios a bit of construction down
25:55
and that looks to be sea world right
25:55
down there sea world
26:05
which would put the disney parks
26:05
right over there
26:08
epcot
26:19
and made another hard turn circling back
26:22
around heading towards the runway
27:04
you seem to be running parallel with the
27:04
plane shadow
27:06
take a look at that
27:28
that's awesome
27:28
look at that look at that
27:30
that's so cool
29:01
a successful flight
29:01
has come to an end
30:08

30:11
a two and a half hour flight
30:13

30:15
in the airplane now you know what's
30:16
interesting is
30:18
on the plane please stand clean up doors
30:20
and hold i would say only maybe half the
30:22
people were wearing these i had mine on
30:24
the whole time but i looked around only
30:26
about half the people were even wearing
30:28
maybe maybe i missed the memo hold on
30:30
and these aren't required anymore even
30:32
the person next to the guy sitting next
30:33
to me
30:34
didn't have one on but maybe
30:36
on the third level maybe they're not
30:38
required
31:03
please stand
31:03
to stop the spread of germs
31:06
please keep six feet of distance from
31:08
others when waiting for your bag for
31:11
that
31:12
i don't know if anyone's staying six
31:13
feet apart anymore by the way i never
31:15
see that take a look at that lizard in a
31:17
case right there and located over here
31:19
in the food court is a fish tank look
31:22
look at this fish right here welcoming
31:24
me to mco orlando international airport
31:28
hello fish
31:29
hello there oh there's another fish
31:32
swimming by right here all right i just
31:34
looked it up and it appears as if as of
31:36
right now
31:38
currently
31:39
today or very very recently
31:43
united airlines and a series of other
31:44
airlines the one i was on
31:47
is no longer mandatory it is
31:49
up to one's discretion
31:52
and that's why there were people on my
31:53
plane that did not have them on it is
31:56
just that one's own discretion now
31:58
whether you need them or not it's a
32:00
historic moment in airline history i had
32:02
no idea
32:04
i probably wouldn't have worn it maybe i
32:06
would abort it it's just a habit cause i
32:08
do fly a lot
