0:03 Welcome everyone. Adam
0:03 Woo here as a recording of this Sunday,
0:07 November 2nd, 2025.
0:10 I'm going to make the very short commute
0:12 few miles from here at my homestead in
0:15 Celebration, Florida over to Disney
0:17 Springs and see how much Christmas
0:21 season decor, merchandise,
0:25 etc. has reared its head on Disney
0:29 property. Not popping in the parks, but
0:32 I am going to Springs. Let's have a day.
0:35 Disney Springs day. Join me. It's good
0:37 to have you here, shall you? Looks like
0:41 it's going to be a nice clear day. Not
0:43 too many clouds in the sky currently.
0:45 1:34 p.m. Going underneath the archway,
0:50 the most magical place on Earth. Pulling
0:52 into the orange garage. Team orange
0:55 today. Well, pretty much team orange
0:58 every day, but the balloon is up.
0:59 Probably will not go up in the balloon.
1:01 I've done it a number of times, but the
1:03 weather's so nice
1:12 that the balloon is in the sky.
1:12 Oh, they don't even have they have the
1:14 the numbers covered there to tell how
1:15 many parking spots there are. Maybe it's
1:17 not working.
1:22 Going to the roof.
1:22 To the roof.
1:25 Nine times out of 10 that I arrive here
1:28 at Disney Springs, I will park in the
1:29 orange structure and I will always park
1:32 at the very tippy top right on the
1:34 corner next to the staircase that I go
1:37 down one level. I take the escalator to
1:39 level two and then from there go through
1:41 the checkpoints
1:43 and then head in. That's my I would say
1:45 one out of 10 times I don't do that, but
1:47 the other nine out of 10 that's that's
1:50 what I do. I'm also curious to see if
1:52 the Starbucks is under renovation. It's
1:53 been a been a few months since I've been
1:55 out here. The Starbucks on the other
1:57 side of AMC has been under heavy
1:59 renovation. So, I'm curious to see if
2:00 that's open. Maybe I can mobile order
2:02 something. Current temperature just down
2:04 the road in my home in Celebration just
2:05 a few miles away. 79°. It's 146 now. I'm
2:09 arriving here at Disney Springs. It's
2:11 going to get up to Well, this is the
2:13 highest it's going to get. And it's
2:14 going to at 5:00 it's going to start
2:15 going down to 76. Might take the golf
2:17 cart out a little bit later. Maybe see
2:19 if I can find some deer at dusk around
2:21 town. Yeah, just a casual relaxing day
2:24 at Disney Springs. Checking out
2:26 merchandise
2:29 and then head back to Celebration. I
2:32 think this might be the new logo for
2:34 Disney Springs, a source of inspiration.
2:36 You got the water tower there and the
2:38 shops. Disney Springs is kind of like a
2:40 big outdoor mall, walking outdoor indoor
2:43 mall with lots of shops, restaurants,
2:44 etc. Much much bigger than Downtown
2:47 Disney in Anaheim. I mean, it's like a
2:50 it's like an entire land of itself.
2:54 No admission needed to get into Springs,
2:55 though, even though you do got to go
2:56 through the bag check. And I did mobile
2:58 order. So, in fact,
3:01 Starbucks down there that was under
3:02 refurb is now
3:05 open. That's nice. Just take your take
3:08 the stairs or the escalator down. I'll
3:10 choose the escalator. I think escalators
3:11 are I don't know a little more a little
3:13 more fun. Just feel like you almost feel
3:15 like you're on an attraction of sorts
3:17 without actually being on an attraction.
3:19 Ah, yes. Fountain in full effect.
3:21 Effervescently flowing its water
3:24 slightly up to the sky. Not quite as
3:26 high as the balloon, but yeah. Go check
3:29 out the new coffee new coffee decor over
3:32 there since they've remodeled it. It was
3:34 under construction for a few months, but
3:36 again, I haven't popped in here in a
3:37 while, so it's finished, I guess. I
3:39 always like how the tree is growing
3:42 through the little little awning right
3:44 there. That's always kind of a neat
3:45 touch. I don't really notice any major
3:47 differences to the exterior. Ah, yes.
3:49 The interior has been a little more
3:51 streamlined. It looks like it's a little
3:52 little better in here for people. I've
3:54 got a mobile order. There's a lot of
3:55 people in here. Just like that. Mine is
3:56 ready under the a right here.
4:01 Lawn vanilla latte. One pop. Cheers.
4:08 >> Tight squeeze through here. I like the
4:08 animals they have up top, though. You
4:10 got a bird there. You got a tiger over
4:14 here. Oh, there's a toucan. Yeah,
4:16 they've completely repainted the inside
4:18 in here.
4:20 That's nice. Yeah, I got to say, mobile
4:22 order for the win on this one because
4:24 there was probably a good 30 to 40
4:27 people inside waiting in line. So, got
4:30 the mobile order, walked right in,
4:32 grabbed it, waited about half a second.
4:34 Just a few people out here wandering
4:37 over to Wer. Well, all not just World of
4:39 Disney, but I'm heading to World of
4:40 Disney. It is elbow to elbow on the
4:44 weekend here at Springs. All right, it
4:45 thinned out a little bit. That was kind
4:47 of a nice little bottleneck spot right
4:49 there. But yeah, going to look at some
4:51 Christmas merch at World of Disney. I
4:54 would imagine probably all the Halloween
4:55 stuff has been put away by this point.
4:57 Or maybe it's on clearance in a a weird
4:59 corner of the World of Disney store.
5:01 Also want to stop by the pen trading
5:03 shop as well. I was on the other side of
5:06 Springs back where the Disney village
5:07 area used to be. See what they got as
5:10 well. Heading in to World of Disney. All
5:13 right, made it in. Made it in.
5:18 It is a beehive. Look at this. They got
5:20 the Christmas colors up like candy canes
5:22 up there. Also got the big fans. Oh
5:25 yeah. Here we go. You can get
5:27 personalization available on this right
5:30 here if you so choose. You get the 2025.
5:33 also says Merry Christmas. If you want
5:35 to have it personalized,
5:37 you can do that as well. It's beginning
5:38 to look a lot like merchandise. It's
5:42 beginning to look a lot like consumerism
5:44 everywhere you turn. Those are cute
5:46 though. Those are really cute. So are
5:48 these. Be tempted almost to take a bite
5:51 out of those.
5:58 So is the season.
5:58 We got the lounge flies over here.
6:10 >> Shout out to one of the greatest Flidian
6:10 birds ever, the orange bird right here.
6:12 It's painted on the side since 1971.
6:16 That's when Magic Kingdom opened. Now,
6:17 originally the Orange Bird was not used
6:19 so much from Disney, even though Disney
6:21 has kind of adopted the Orange Bird at
6:23 its own. Was kind of had a dual nature.
6:25 It was used a lot for for Florida as
6:28 well. Also, like the state of Florida
6:29 used the orange orange bird quite a bit.
6:33 And now when you think about it, you
6:34 always just think of WDW. It's like a
6:36 WDW
6:37 icon now. Yeah, it certainly is
6:40 beginning to look a lot like Christmas.
6:43 Got the presents here. It is a little
6:46 too warm right now to be wearing that
6:49 bad boy, but that is definitely would
6:51 definitely be a conversation starter if
6:53 you were wearing it cuz that is a fluffy
6:55 fluffy coat for sure.
6:58 That's kind of cute. It looks like the
7:00 This is kind of the what they're going
7:02 with with the design. A little candy
7:05 piece.
7:11 Delivering holiday magic. You got Tinker
7:11 Bell right up there. It looks like a
7:13 cast member name badge. Instead of
7:15 saying Tinkerbell, it says delivering
7:17 holiday magic. And you got the big tree
7:19 right in the middle. Now, keep in mind,
7:21 it's only a couple days into November.
7:24 It's Christmas time. Whether you like it
7:26 or not, Christmas, as my friend the temp
7:29 tracker always says, is starting now.
7:31 Ah, they have the design up top. The
7:34 most magical place on earth. You got the
7:36 cast of characters up there. You got
7:38 Daisy, Pluto, you got Minnie, you got
7:40 Mickey.
7:43 You got Goofy, and you got Donald over
7:45 on that. You got the six of them up top.
7:48 And as I get a little bit closer, oh, I
7:50 really like these kind of cutouts here.
7:54 like wooden cutouts they have scattered
7:57 around Mickey and Minnie. Mickey is
8:02 invoking the vibes of Santa with the
8:04 Santa sack right there. It's pretty
8:07 cool. And then you can get the countdown
8:09 days to Christmas, which it's way longer
8:12 than a calendar month, so you wouldn't
8:13 even be able to use that for a while.
8:17 You got them on the Santa sleigh
8:21 right there.
8:24 Yeah, this is fun.
8:27 >> Holiday season. It's upon us.
8:33 >> They got any cool blow molds,
8:35 for example. I wouldn't classify this as
8:37 a blow mold, but kind of. This might be
8:40 cool. That might be cool for my balcony,
8:43 right? Something like that. That's $70.
8:46 Look at that. I don't even know if that
8:48 comes off or not. No, it's just a big
8:49 ornament. Doesn't even open up or
8:51 anything.
8:52 It's cute though. I'm going to pass on
8:54 that, but it's cute. Got some oversized
8:56 lights here. This is a jumbo glow
8:59 necklace right here. A jumbo glow
9:02 necklace and it's $34.99. It's under the
9:05 color of mine and the price point. Yeah,
9:09 huge jumbo glow necklace.
9:16 Got Santa sleigh right there. Now we're
9:16 getting into some of the spirit jerseys.
9:19 Wonder what the back of this looks like.
9:20 There's the back WDW action there in the
9:24 spirit jersey.
9:25 >> That one they have a plain red one.
9:28 >> No problem. The lady thought I was
9:30 someone else. She thought I was part of
9:33 her party, but I wasn't. She said they
9:35 had a plain red one. Thought she thought
9:37 it maybe she was talking to her brother
9:38 or her husband. They're really pushing
9:39 the most magical place on earth, unlike
9:41 Disneyland, which is the happiest place
9:43 on earth. Two different slogans.
9:46 Socks there. Stocking.
9:50 Irresistible.
9:50 >> Irresistible.
9:52 >> Little snow globe.
10:04 >> Could get a 35piece train set right
10:04 here. 35 piece train set that you could
10:06 put around maybe around the tree or just
10:09 pretty much anywhere you want to put it
10:10 around. There's a wishing you a merry
10:12 Christmas and a happy new Oh, don't want
10:13 to go that far. I don't want to start
10:14 thinking about 26 yet even though it's
10:16 on the horizon. I'm trying to kind of
10:18 peruse around and show a little bit of
10:20 everything. It's a little overwhelming
10:21 back in this section with the seasonal
10:23 section where they have kind of
10:25 everything set up, but there is a pretty
10:26 good assortment of different things.
10:28 Nothing's really jumping out at me.
10:29 Maybe as the season maybe as Christmas
10:32 Day gets a little bit closer. I might
10:34 kind of dive in a little deeper into the
10:36 into the the merchandise as far as
10:38 clothing and all that goes. But there's
10:40 a couple things that were covered kind
10:41 of neat that I'm keeping my keeping on
10:43 the back burner in my brain as I go
10:45 through. But obviously because you know
10:47 Halloween just ended and Christmas is
10:48 coming up. You got you got a lot of the
10:50 two holidays colliding for Nightmare
10:53 Before Christmas. There's a lot of that
10:55 merchandise which is themed around
10:56 Christmas as well which is kind of
10:57 genius when you come to think of it from
10:59 a a marketing standpoint. You can kind
11:01 of you have the two biggest holidays at
11:03 the end of the year that you can
11:05 utilize. You got Halloween which just
11:06 ended and Christmas. So they are they're
11:09 tapping into that the merchandise
11:11 standpoint for sure. I even remember a
11:13 time back in the day. This is like early
11:15 2000s, late '9s, early 2000s. It was
11:18 really difficult to find anything
11:19 Nightmare Before Christmas, but now, now
11:21 this everywhere. Oh my gosh, look at
11:23 cute, cuddly ornament Stitch right here.
11:27 Merry Stitchmas. Oh, I love it. Check
11:29 out this full-size train in here. Right
11:32 at the cusp. Right at the bottom, they
11:34 have a full-size train. And it looks
11:37 like Stitch has been run down right here
11:39 on the cattle guard. stitches. Well, he
11:42 just dodged the cattle guard, but this
11:43 stitch looks like he's taking a little
11:45 nap right there underneath the cattle
11:47 guard. Wedge between the cattle guard
11:49 and the train itself. This is a This is
11:51 kind of a nice addition. I do love the
11:52 train aspect of it. It's kind of fun. A
11:55 lot of Stitch stuff. Stitch loves to
11:57 celebrate every holiday. This is how he
12:01 is. I guess Mickey is passing the torch
12:03 on to Stitch cuz you got the little
12:05 figurine here. You got Mickey embracing
12:07 the holidays. Now, nonseasonal, but
12:10 definitely have some good collared
12:11 shirts over here. Check out the tiki
12:13 room shirt over. Oh my gosh, look at
12:15 this freaking Figment shirt. Oh, yes.
12:17 They didn't have it in my size, but I'm
12:19 going to check elsewhere. They only had
12:20 it in small and medium. The balloons up
12:22 over there. What if they're going to put
12:24 a Santa cap on Stitch here? The spitting
12:26 Stitch. He's not spitting today, though.
12:27 He's not spitting. But I walked over to
12:29 the pin trading store and I don't I
12:31 realized I don't have these Mickey's and
12:33 because I did a lot of international
12:35 traveling this year, I went to Mexico. I
12:37 think I'm going to get this pin there.
12:39 And then also the UK. I went there. Go
12:42 ahead and get that Mickey. And then also
12:44 Canada. I also went there. I went to
12:46 other countries as well, but these are
12:47 the three that Disney has pins of. It
12:49 has Mickey on it cuz I collect Mickey
12:50 pens. So go ahead and get get the three
12:54 of those right here. There's no
12:56 Christmas pens over here, which is
12:57 interesting. I have to check somewhere
12:58 else. But they do have the new limited
13:01 release Magic Band. Christmas Magic Band
13:03 here. Don't need another Magic Band. I
13:05 already have the one. When the Magic
13:07 Band Pluses came out, I got one for here
13:09 and I got one for Disneyland. I just
13:11 keep using the same one, but for those
13:13 interested, it's the That's the pen. I
13:16 also found an American Adventure
13:19 American Adventure pen here as well. All
13:21 right, making my rounds now over to I
13:23 think it's called the Vault. We have
13:24 this Orange Bird Lounge Fly. That's
13:26 neat. Kind of like that. It's like a
13:28 different kind of texture, too. It's not
13:29 the the leathery style. It's more of a
13:31 cloth style orange bird. cutie is or she
13:35 is. Not sure if it's a boy or girl. All
13:37 right, back over at Mouse Gears. They
13:39 have quite a few more pins than they had
13:40 over at the pen trading store, including
13:42 a Mickey one up there and a mini Stitch.
13:45 I got plenty of time to get these, so I
13:47 don't think I'll get any of these at the
13:49 moment. Even though Stitch looks like
13:51 it's up to like a little mis mischief
13:52 there has an elf. Got Mickey right
13:57 there. I'll probably try to get as the
13:59 season goes along, but not going to get
14:00 him today. Plenty of time. Still early.
14:02 still way early. I was kind of wondering
14:04 how long the line would be past Ragland
14:06 Rose over [music] at Gideonss. And the
14:08 Gideonss line is lengthy. This place
14:10 always has a massive line. Gideonss does
14:13 not disappoint. Today on the weekend,
14:15 the line goes all the way down and it
14:17 almost kind of doubles back around.
14:19 Always. I've never seen this place
14:21 without a leafy line. Always has a line.
14:23 Over at the big Coke store, the World of
14:24 Coke. Check this out. You can
14:26 personalize your own can here. You get
14:28 your name on there or you can get some
14:30 Arctic Fizz right there with the polar
14:32 bears on the penguins splashing around.
14:35 If you go up to the top, you can create
14:36 your own name on the Coca-Cola thing.
14:39 I'm not going to do that, but I am going
14:40 to go get a peek up the rooftop view. I
14:42 was kind of surprised how much stuff was
14:43 in the World of Coke. They had a lot of
14:47 lot of Christmas stuff already out. A
14:49 lot of really neat designs with the
14:50 polar bear and Santa Claus and
14:52 Coca-Cola. not only t-shirts and
14:55 sweaters and things like that, but also
14:57 ornaments, little knick-knacks and
14:59 things like that. Ended up going up to
15:01 the top and getting a pretty good view
15:03 from the the pinnacle of the world of
15:05 World of Coke building, which is kind of
15:07 a nice little viewpoint of Disney
15:10 Springs and over Planet Hollywood and
15:12 all that. And now going now back down
15:15 ready to walk up the stairs or go up the
15:16 escalator up to the very top floor of
15:18 the Orange Garage. I'm going to go back
15:21 to my car and then drive back over into
15:22 Celebration and see where the rest of
15:25 the day leads.
15:28 Say bye to Disney Springs.
15:35 I did pretty good. I wasn't tempted to
15:35 buy too much stuff except for the few
15:36 pins. There was some good stuff at World
15:39 of Disney already.
15:49 Yeah. In fact, that is the little
15:49 overlook from World of Coke right there
15:51 that I was standing on. Now I'm back at
15:52 the top and the balloon's going up.
15:56 Didn't do the balloon today, but I've
15:57 done it a number of times. Nice little
15:59 bird's eye perspective from up there.
16:02 Clouds are starting to develop now.
16:05 And with the time change, time change
16:08 early this morning, late last night.
16:10 Sunset will not be at 6:40 like it
16:12 usually is. It's going to be at 5:40.
16:15 Nice little glistening off the clouds.
16:18 All right, made it back home now into
16:20 the corridor of goons, if you will. And
16:24 I wanted to show the new Mickey pens. I
16:26 got a ton of Mickey pens. These are all
16:28 all Mickey pens down in here. So, I got
16:31 my World Showcase ones,
16:33 Mexico,
16:35 Canada,
16:36 United Kingdom,
16:38 and of course, American Adventure.
16:42 Guess I've been to those particular
16:43 countries outside of Epcot's World
16:45 Showcase. I've been to the actual
16:47 countries, and I'm going to another
16:50 country
16:52 later this month.
16:54 Those might pin board or two of my pen
16:57 boards. And just below my Silent Rage,
17:00 Chuck Norris, I got more pins over here.
17:02 Got my Toad, Splash Mountain,
17:05 Maleficent, Haunted Mansion, Genie,
17:08 Halloween pins. These are all random
17:11 ones, you know, Back to the Future,
17:13 Dragon Con,
17:15 etc.
17:17 Christmasy stuff, Orange Bird, Roger
17:19 Rabbit, etc. All right, I'm getting on
17:21 the golf cart. Going around. Going to
17:23 walk around the lakefront just a little
17:24 bit. Maybe get a little view of the
17:26 sunset that's starting to to dip down
17:28 over the horizon over the fountain here.
17:30 And then avocados off in the distance
17:33 that direction, which is where I just
17:34 walked from. And then maybe I'll get on
17:36 the golf cart and see if I can find some
17:38 deer that are grazing at dusk or under
17:40 the right as right as dusk is happening
17:43 and nightfall is about to about to take
17:47 place. But you like see the sun here
17:50 going over the horizon and glisting off
17:52 the clouds. The skies look very good.
17:53 Always Florida sunsets are always very
17:55 very nice. It's very peaceful. It feels
17:57 great out here right now. The
17:59 celebration lake Reinhardt. We pan
18:02 across. They also added a couple new
18:04 things in over here. This is brand new.
18:07 These little air raators or whatever
18:09 these are right here. These are brand
18:11 new where the water is now cycling
18:13 through this to get rid of like all the
18:15 buildup of there was used to be a lot of
18:17 mossy buildup here and now that has been
18:19 erased because of these that they just
18:21 added right over there. So now there's
18:22 more flowing water. Got the fountain
18:24 fully operational and the sunset over
18:27 there with the palm trees. Very, very
18:30 beautiful with the sunset there across
18:31 the plate. Ryan Harbor. Very nice. Very
18:33 nice. Look at this little classic car
18:35 coming through.
18:44 Not having a lot of duck. Not having a
18:44 lot of luck or ducks on the search for
18:48 the deer.
18:50 Maybe I saw subconsciously saw a duck.
18:53 That's why I said duck instead of luck.
18:55 But no deer.
18:57 And I have to be on the cautious side
18:58 because there is a full moon or at least
19:00 close to a full moon up there. Which
19:02 mean werewolves have a slight
19:04 possibility that werewolves might end up
