welcome everyone Adam the woo here as a

recording of This is Saturday August
0:04
26th
0:06
2023 I am here in Celebration Florida
0:09
but soon
0:11
we'll be departing from here Water
0:14
Street going into Market Street and
0:16
making a very short commute
0:20
from this point about three or four
0:22
miles if even that maybe even
0:24
closer proximity than that amount to Old
0:27
Town Kissimmee where they are having the
0:29
Saturday night cruise
0:33
I've been to Old Town in a while I
0:35
usually do two maybe three times a year
0:37
while we go to the Saturday night cruise
0:39
and I figure tonight heck it
0:42
it's one of those times inviting you to
0:44
join me for a summer Cruise
0:48
shall you
0:49
now all the cars start going down the
0:52
main area oh it just moved at 8 30. I'd
0:55
like to get over there a little bit
0:57
earlier because a lot of them are
0:58
already parked you can kind of just you
1:01
can see them while they're parked and do
1:02
other things and it's so hot in Central
1:04
Florida during the day it's kind of nice
1:06
to wait till a little bit later and do
1:09
late afternoon early evening events so
1:13
it's kind of nice it's kind of nice to
1:15
have things to do in the evening in the
1:17
summer in Florida because during the day
1:18
rough got piping hot caffeinated but not
1:21
a pumpkin spice just a regular coffee
1:23
tiny bit of cream
1:25
tiny bit of sugar
1:27
I had a puppy spice the other day
1:28
sometimes this little spinny sign
1:30
celebration hotel is working and
1:32
sometimes it's not today
1:34
or this evening it is working and that
1:37
is a lighthouse up there
1:38
look I don't think I've ever seen the
1:40
lighthouse on providing any I mean
1:43
you'll see a light on up there but you
1:44
never see it utilizing like lampy wood
1:46
from each dragon
1:48
you know bringing in the ships because
1:49
there's no ships going across the lake
1:51
here celebration
1:53
I think it's going to be a pretty pretty
1:55
good evening
2:01
nice relaxing one
2:01
it's a pretty popular event so finding
2:03
parking is rather difficult so I paid
2:05
eight dollars to park over here in this
2:07
grass lot over here behind the miniature
2:11
golf course sometimes I'll park over the
2:13
Red Lobster but for some reason Red
2:15
Lobster is not allowing people to park
2:16
there even for a price anymore so this
2:18
option works as well you can park for
2:20
free but it's just really difficult to
2:21
find parking
2:22
fills up pretty quickly this was eight
2:24
dollars to be right over here in this
2:26
little little grassy section over here
2:29
you got the roller coaster right there
2:31
you got Fun Spot
2:33
and I'll head this way
2:36
and start off at the ferris wheel and
2:38
see the ride vehicle going up the side
2:40
see the sun
2:42
slowly going to be making it to sit
2:44
truck down the Horizon for the sunset
2:46
probably in the next 30 minutes or so 45
2:49
40 minutes or so
2:54
it's going around gonna hear some
2:54
screams on the drop in here and there
2:56
they go
3:07
oh that sounds like it needs a little
3:07
bit of
3:09
a bd40 or something now you could also
3:11
park over here at Pirate's Cove
3:13
Adventure Park it used to be ten dollars
3:16
but now you have well they have the ten
3:18
dollar thing scratched out but it says
3:20
anyone that's paying for mini golf could
3:23
park here for free so whatever the price
3:24
of one mini golf would be you see that
3:28
whole Red Lobster parking lot over there
3:29
they used to have someone working out
3:31
there and they would charge you like 10
3:33
bucks to park over there there's also
3:35
VIP parking for twenty dollars
3:37
right over there closer to the ferris
3:39
wheel
3:44
it seems like a oh you know what now
3:44
they're now they're bringing the
3:46
washboard out I just missed it
3:49
well I paid eight dollars
3:50
this is probably going to be 10. so
3:52
maybe I saved a couple bucks it is 6 50
3:54
p.m so I guess probably at seven they
3:56
start charging for Park parking over at
3:58
the Red Lobster that must be what it is
4:00
I got here just a little bit early
4:02
car cruise starts technically at 8 30.
4:04
these guys are setting up also look
4:06
someone's getting ready to drop in on
4:08
the sky oh The Coasters going up and The
4:11
skycoasters Happening might be able to
4:13
get a twofer right here
4:15
so this is going to go around
4:17
that's gonna drop in
4:19
and then someone is about to get really
4:22
daring it's gonna be about three seconds
4:24
from right now three two one and they're
4:27
making the alert and here comes the drop
4:29
right now going in going in you hear the
4:32
screen from here zipping along going up
4:36
and did I lose it did I lose it there it
4:38
is there they are right into the sunset
4:42
that's something else over here at the
4:44
Fun Spot Plaza got three flags there you
4:47
got the Florida State flag you got the
4:49
U.S flag and you have a Canadian flag
4:52
pretty far from the Canada Border
4:54
evidently people could probably own this
4:56
particular shop must be from Canada got
4:58
the icy bear over here oh got Logan Paul
5:01
promoting one of his products
5:04
right here which is like a energy drink
5:06
or a hydration fuel I never realized
5:09
there is a ticket land travel place here
5:12
too and one of the Orlando Magic players
5:14
keep wanting to go to a magic game I've
5:15
been to a basketball game
5:17
since Shaquille O'Neal played for the
5:20
magic back in the early 90s yeah like an
5:23
early 90s Shack does
5:25
one of these days I'm gonna go to a
5:26
magic game 49 for Disney probably a
5:29
timeshare sale wow anyone
5:33
that's here or sitting on the table
5:34
outside wow are you punished I must have
5:38
a problem
5:39
people being out here I'm already seeing
5:41
one I'm seeing a green bug go by
5:43
making its way over
5:48
into Old Town it's where I'm headed it
5:48
should also be noted that this mouse
5:50
coaster over here at Fun Spot
5:52
is not running anymore they have shut it
5:55
down it looks like I had seen some
5:57
articles online
5:59
that there was a mishap so they have
6:02
shut it down
6:04
kind of wondering that if they would get
6:06
it back up and running again but that
6:08
thing is not running I'm going to walk
6:09
over there at some point it's a little
6:11
bit of a haze I'm gonna call it like a
6:13
foggy smoggy it's not smog here
6:16
there's a little bit of a haze out
6:19
Ferris wheel going above the
6:22
Shoney's kitchen here
6:25
and you got the archway of Old Town
6:28
and that Checkers have been over there
6:29
forever
6:30
yeah that Checkers have seen some things
6:32
wow there is a Busch Garden shuttle at
6:35
least from Old Town that is a hike and a
6:37
half
6:38
it leaves every morning at 9 15 A.M
6:41
I mean I guess if you have no other way
6:43
to get there but goodness that is a hike
6:45
there's a very interesting thing over
6:46
here next to the ticket booth and the
6:49
ferris wheel there's something called
6:50
the fish Spa so you basically pay some
6:53
money and you dip your feet into a spy
6:55
to like water that has little tiny fish
6:58
that nibble on your toes
7:00
huh now I always I've always heard that
7:03
a ninja is pretty intense an extreme
7:05
ninja that's completely completely Next
7:08
Level oh there's one of those coaster
7:10
there's one of those helicopter tours I
7:12
did the other day also BK does not want
7:14
you parking here either now I never went
7:15
on this well maybe I did go on this I've
7:17
been on a few of this similar type of
7:19
coaster at different fairs I don't think
7:22
I've ever been on well maybe I did you
7:23
know what I don't remember but I've been
7:24
all ones similar to this this is kind of
7:26
like what they call like a mouse coaster
7:28
it's called Galaxy spin which I think is
7:30
kind of like the one that they
7:31
dismantled over at Animal Kingdom
7:33
recently so goodbye to the Galaxy spin
7:36
it no longer exists no news on if
7:40
they're going to tear it down this is a
7:41
good piece of prime real estate here at
7:42
Fun Spot May reopen but as of right now
7:45
it is just sitting here empty and you
7:48
can see here are yeah this is just like
7:50
the mouse coaster wrote the Orange
7:51
County Fair a while back and very
7:53
similar to primeval World it definitely
7:55
is the same ride vehicle that they have
7:57
at primeval world there's pizza by the
7:59
slice there and as well
8:02
all right it is in full effect at the
8:06
carnival style rides going on over there
8:08
got the cars all through here quite a
8:11
few people are congregating and over
8:13
here towards the end there's so expect
8:16
that one far end there is a tilted world
8:19
right here that is going around
8:22
which makes you a little bit not if I'm
8:24
gone on this particular one before there
8:26
is one group of people on there at the
8:28
moment and there's also another I was
8:31
thinking maybe that this was also going
8:34
to be shut down just not technically
8:35
well
8:37
it's part of Fun Spot to be part of old
8:39
time the tickets and passes here
8:41
but there are people being loaded on uh
8:49
this this is this is a little sketchy
8:49
but it's fun to do I got it oh wait
8:51
maybe the hurricane is not running there
8:53
are a couple people up there working on
8:54
the ride vehicle so no one is being
8:56
loaded on at the moment I'll check back
8:58
a little bit later to see if anyone is
9:00
riding on this at the moment it's called
9:01
the hurricane you know because Florida
9:03
gets a lot of hurricanes you know
9:04
California just recently got a hurricane
9:06
Florida gets gets a majority of I'm not
9:08
going to do the fish Spa but I did put
9:10
seven dollars on the fun e-card that's
9:13
how much it costs to go up on the ferris
9:16
wheel you know what heck it I'm gonna go
9:17
up on the ferris wheel just riding the
9:19
low maximum weight limit 990 pounds come
9:23
up with that figure why not a thousand
9:25
we have 990 pounds but there's not room
9:29
for a thousand
9:53
I'm gonna be on this pink one right here
9:53
number three now some Ferris wheels will
9:56
not let you ride alone one little old
9:58
town you can ride alone oh it's swinging
10:02
there
10:03
what side do I want to be on Strictly
10:05
forbidden
10:07
strictly forbidden stay up climb
10:10
strictly forbidden stay up
10:13
climb and stick out stay seated during
10:16
all run so strictly forbidden stay up
10:20
strictly for people
10:23
I do love a good Ferris wheel Ferris
10:26
wheel also finish my coffee and I gotta
10:28
water stay hydrated
10:29
I love a good train I love a good Ferris
10:31
wheel I love sometimes I like
10:33
merry-go-rounds but hit or miss on
10:35
merry-go-rounds but almost every Ferris
10:37
wheel if it's there or train I'll go on
10:40
it it's just how I am getting a pretty
10:42
good view from up here you can see some
10:44
of the little scuff marks that are on
10:46
the side of the little protective screen
10:48
here but if you down you can see down I
10:52
for that direction I-4 but Highway 192
10:55
that direction and this is not the
10:57
original Ferris wheel that was here this
10:59
is one they put in I don't know four or
11:01
five years ago
11:03
like hot air balloons but you can see
11:05
down there you can see Marilyn Monroe
11:07
etched and painted on the side of that
11:09
gift shop now this sign right here says
11:11
do not wear ties scarves for
11:15
voluminous
11:17
voluminous right here do not wear ties
11:21
scars or evolved humanists
11:24
clothes
11:25
I'm gonna start using that
11:27
looks like it's something that could get
11:29
stuck in something always fun to learn
11:31
new words and usually what I will do is
11:33
I've learned new words and use it
11:35
incorrectly for the rest of my life I'll
11:37
just make it a thing and use words the
11:40
way they're not supposed to be used on a
11:42
pretty much semi-regular or daily basis
11:44
nice little breeze out here got the U.S
11:46
flag going by also have that Mouse
11:48
coaster
11:49
down there again
11:51
a little bit of a little bit of scuffed
11:55
up marks there on the on the glass the
11:57
protective glass it feels really good
12:00
out here
12:06
before the summer it feels really good I
12:06
mean it is the Sun is going down but the
12:08
breeze is really nice
12:10
it is rather enjoyable maybe I'm getting
12:13
a acclimated more to Florida weather or
12:16
maybe it's just a really nice just a
12:18
nice night I think it's just a nice
12:19
night getting a nice little Sunset
12:21
almost over there
12:23
just about time for sunset that uh that
12:26
pole just obscured it but there you go
12:28
this is pretty nice
12:30
even though it is forbidden to stay up
12:34
climb
12:35
stick outs
12:41
forbidden this is nice though nice got
12:41
this got their feet up
12:43
my feet are in though they are not
12:45
climbed or stuck out or for or staying
12:48
up my toes are up though so maybe that's
12:51
for good
12:52
if I remember correctly back in the day
12:55
this is like in the 90s Wolfman Jack had
12:57
a little
12:58
a little establishment right here
13:00
Wolfman Jack's area but that was torn
13:02
down now there's a Shoney's here
13:04
Wolfman Jack has to be a big part in
13:05
fact they still play his Spiel Saturday
13:07
night cruise Spiel right before the
13:10
cruise every Saturday
13:11
his voice yeah for real there's little
13:13
fishies in those buckets there just
13:15
waiting
13:16
for people to go in pay some money and
13:19
have the little fishies that nibble at
13:21
their toesies right there in those comfy
13:23
seats
13:24
foreign
13:27
s look really awesome with the sunset
13:30
over there just going around with the
13:32
sunset in the background yeah I kind of
13:33
feel like one day all of this exact type
13:35
of coaster will just not be around
13:37
anymore I feel like this this style
13:39
might just be uh be going by the wayside
13:42
they just seem to be closing everywhere
13:44
all right evidently I am incorrect it is
13:46
just temporarily closed place your bets
13:49
if that's going to be the case if this
13:50
will reopen Galaxy spin but the one in
13:53
Animal Kingdom they completely tore down
13:55
probably because Disney has other plans
13:57
for putting something else in a sponge
13:59
all right I think this one is heading
14:00
out also I've never seen anyone eat
14:02
pizza like that before that's not how I
14:04
eat pizza that's unique all right just a
14:07
quick little update the hurricane
14:08
coaster I have not seen it running all
14:10
evening so probably yeah it might be
14:13
under maintenance also yeah it's hard to
14:15
wave the Baton and let everybody pull
14:17
out now
14:19
and it begins you got the pace car here
14:23
and then they're rolling through just
14:26
like that they go up one side of the
14:27
road and down the other got the strings
14:29
locked off over there as well
14:31
you got the trunks
14:37
one of my favorite things not only the
14:39
gasoline smell kind of has that Ambiance
14:41
but then you also get
14:43
the sights and sounds of Old Town
14:50
just really cool something that's been
14:50
going on for this long
14:51
I like the sounds of the engines
14:54
the Roars of the engines I think are
14:55
like my probably my favorite thing you
14:58
definitely don't get that kind of sound
14:59
with the electric cars that are out
15:01
there but uh
15:02
listen to that thing for
15:37
I would have a tough time sitting in
15:37
that thing oh wow
15:39
Hawks you can startled me for a minute
15:40
I'm talking to somewhere else
15:42
he's got the little uh little oh there's
15:46
a turtle in the back look at a small
15:47
turtle he's got it covered up
16:11
it's a good rumbles tonight
16:11
sometimes they have the music out here
16:13
at all times lasting so loud you can't
16:15
really like
16:16
get full effect but they got it at a
16:18
moderate level today which is nice
16:42
bugs there's a couple of them coming
16:42
through
16:49
good revs down there oh look at this
16:49
thing coming in hot
16:52
I like this one it's like a drag racer
16:55
almost oh it's uh
16:57
drag it's Dragula
17:13
hey I think he wants to peel out that
17:13
thing
17:23
thank you
18:02
all right this has a little bug on top
18:02
of the regular bug take a look at that
18:05
it's like one on top of the other
18:26
strobe lights off as much
18:26
warning
18:35
ready to party
18:42
another successful
18:42
time at Old Town
18:45
everyone's kind of clearing out
18:47
well he's clearing out from the classic
18:49
car stuff
18:55
and that's gonna do it
18:58
for today this afternoon this evening
19:04
I appreciate you watching
19:04
I'm going to end it with one final
19:05
scream
19:12
here at Old Town Kissimmee
19:14
I'll see you in the next video
19:16
the Vlog

19:29
going up
19:29
Up

19:39
bonus scream
