My Flight Experience To Boise Idaho - Leaving California For Now / Sitting Next To A Celebrity
Flight To Boise Idaho
Transcript
0:04
Today's adventure begins in my partially
0:04
echoey well not partially but my echoey
0:07
hotel room here in Buena Park,
0:09
California,
0:11
the Knots Hotel, which I really really
0:13
like this spot. As the recording of this
0:15
TGIF, it is Friday, September 12th,
0:19
2025. I am checking out of the Knots
0:23
Hotel, taking my rental car up to the
0:26
rental car facility on the outskirts of
0:28
LAX, Los Angeles International Airport.
0:32
But I will not be going international.
0:33
I'll be dropping the rental car off and
0:36
heading to Boise,
0:38
Idaho
0:40
for a little while. Few days, couple
0:43
days, two or three days, give or take a
0:45
day. This is my view out the window.
0:49
Knottberry Farms right over there. It's
0:52
a little cloudy today, which is unusual
0:54
for SoCal.
1:01
Did not utilize this bed. It was just me
1:02
in here. So, I had this bed, a spare
1:05
bed, and then I had this one here that
1:06
slumbered in.
1:12
All right, heading out. Oh, let me show
1:12
this real quick, too.
1:16
They have these Knottberry Farm plates,
1:18
the Claude Bell sculptures there,
1:22
the Calico Saloon,
1:24
and the Calico Mine Company
1:32
train that goes through the the mine
1:32
train. Pretty cool. Really, I really
1:34
like this hotel a lot. Highly recommend.
1:37
Reasonably priced, centrally located to,
1:40
you know, knots. Disney's not too far
1:42
away.
1:44
in the heart of SoCal right here in
1:46
Orange County.
1:52
Would and will stay here again. I got a
1:52
few spots in Southern California I like
1:54
to stay out and this is definitely on
1:56
the list. Really like this hotel.
2:20
Check it out.
2:27
A few years ago, I stayed here before
2:27
they did the remodel a few years ago,
2:29
and it is considerably nicer now. Much
2:31
nicer now. It's still about the same
2:34
price as it was before they did the
2:35
remodel. So definitely never
2:39
disappointed when I stay here for the
2:40
price point and what you pay for for per
2:42
for the room. I think it's just I think
2:44
it's a heck of a deal. It's kind of a
2:46
it's almost like a a hidden gem here
2:48
tucked away in the theme park area,
2:50
theme park region
2:53
vicinity, if you will of Orange County.
2:57
All right, heading out. Welcome
2:59
everyone. Adam the Woo here. It is a
3:02
wonderful as again overcast day. Very,
3:04
very nice. Unusual to see clouds of the
3:06
sky here in SoCal, but they are up
3:09
there, which is nice. So the sun's not
3:10
beating down upon my head. It's 8:30
3:12
a.m. Checkout's at 11:00, but I need to
3:14
get going. Need to drop off the rental
3:15
car outside of LAX, then take the
3:18
shuttle over. They say to get there
3:20
about 2 hours early. My flight takes off
3:22
at noon, so it boards at like 11:45.
3:25
Hopefully traffic is kind going over
3:27
that direction and then uh just see
3:29
where the day leads. So, going to Boise,
3:31
Idaho, direct flight. No, no
3:33
connections. Out of Orlando. I've been
3:35
to Boise before. Out of Orlando, there
3:37
are no direct flights. So, you got to do
3:39
the connecting thing. But out of LAX,
3:41
only two-hour flight direct in and out.
3:44
Super easy. Just uh once you're up in
3:46
the air, you're only up there for like
3:47
an hour before you start the descent
3:48
back down. I think I arrive I leave out
3:51
of here at noon and then I arrive in
3:53
Idaho with the hour time difference at 3
3:56
p.m. So, it's a travel day. It's good to
3:58
have you here. Let's return the rental
3:59
car. Let me get over to Idaho. Join me.
4:04
Travel daytime,
4:06
shall we? It's going to be about 45
4:09
minutes when it's all said and done
4:10
getting from Buena Park over to LAX.
4:14
All right, I have arrived over at the
4:16
rental car facility to drop it off. Very
4:20
simple. Drop it off, then get on a bus.
4:22
Takes you right over to the airport a
4:24
few miles away. Pretty simple.
4:35
All right, time to take the bus.
4:35
I heard they started taking down the
4:38
LAX signs.
4:41
That looks like it's true. Look up here.
4:54
>> Partially removed.
4:54
I've already gotten rid of the ax.
5:01
Weird not seeing those next time I'm in
5:01
town or sooner than later.
5:31
Make sure the bin can close. If the bin
5:31
is full, feel free to go to closing.
5:32
>> Thank each and every one of you for
5:34
allowing us the opportunity to get you
5:35
home to Boisey.
5:41
>> If needed, seat cushions can be used for
5:41
flotation. to use. Pull up to remove the
5:43
bottom cushion. When you exit the
5:45
aircraft, hold the cushion to your chest
5:46
with the straps facing away. Put your
5:48
arms through the straps and hold your
5:49
wrists instantly.
6:05
Oh, my first
6:05
caught up like, "Oh, I'm sure the
6:07
second."
6:09
And it's like wires and stuff like you
6:12
can do something
7:12
Please stay seated with your seat belt
7:12
signed
7:15
up. See SCess
7:43
coffee as well as regular coffee. We
7:43
have Coke, Diet Coke, Coke Zero, Sprite,
7:47
Ginger ale, Selzer water, tonic water,
7:52
spicy tomato juice, cranberry juice,
7:55
orange juice, and apple juice. Your
7:59
snack options today,
8:02
Biscoff cookies,
8:04
Cheezits, and garden salsa sun chips.
8:08
Again, that's biscoff, cookies,
8:11
cheesits, and garden salsa sun chips.
8:14
Please let me know which snack you
8:15
prefer. And if you do need to restroom,
8:17
again, there's a restroom in the front
8:18
of the cabin and a restroom in the back
8:20
of the cabin.
9:24
Heat.
11:56
to get enough
11:56
problem.
12:13
If I get one character, I might get
12:13
close to
12:15
that would be just
12:18
so the problem is data that we keep and
12:22
is they don't have a good data science
12:25
team
12:27
have things like that one has a good
12:30
data science team so it's still taking a
12:31
few months but they are right now
12:33
they're sending over data we're kind of
12:35
validating so I think by the end of next
12:37
month have their data we can run late
12:40
right now probably like first week of
12:42
October and find
12:44
shows up here 3 million
13:03
process but we used to have like process
13:03
driving
13:04
in total even though we have
13:13
applications we have billing data We can
13:13
take all data, slice it nice and divide
13:15
into all these different analytics. And
13:18
so
13:21
data technology really good,
13:35
you know,
13:35
usually
13:40
you're seeing
13:40
70% of people already all these other
13:44
companies. Anytime somebody applies and
13:47
receive five different letters, we see
13:49
all five of those allocations and if
13:52
they go in, you know, so then it's like
13:53
it just gets better and better value
13:56
while at the same time the profit is
13:58
getting worse because processors are
13:59
getting better and better things. One of
14:02
the crazy trends that's happening right
14:04
now
14:07
bust out. So what people are doing weird
14:10
a detailed presentation this week
14:14
let's say I have I get to where I have
14:16
my limited credit. So right now I can I
14:19
can do this right now. I can go in in a
14:23
two week period. I can go get 10
14:27
and like a bunch of credit cards and
14:30
rack them all up.
15:07
All right, I've landed in Boise. I'm
15:07
assuming that this is downtown Boise
15:10
just based on the photo here as I've
15:12
exited the plane. Need a little info. I
15:15
could pick up an ID guide, an Idaho
15:18
guide. Look, there's Idaho potatoes in
15:21
potato chip form. I bet those are
15:23
probably pretty good because Idaho is
15:24
known for its potatoes. So, I'm told. I
15:27
remember that. Oh, I had forgotten this
15:29
last time I was here that they have on
15:31
the honor system cash only coffee on the
15:34
honor system. There's no one working
15:36
here. They're not going to take your
15:37
credit card. They're not going to take
15:38
your cash. They're not going to give any
15:40
change back. On the honor system, they
15:42
have coffee. You don't see that too too
15:44
many city airports. I'm not sure if they
15:47
have actually have a Starbucks, but they
15:49
do have a coffee bar. Self-s served,
15:51
fresh brood, and it's all in the honor
15:53
system. But yeah, wanted to show that
15:56
fish streaming or fish swimming
15:58
upstream. This is the final exit. If you
16:02
go through here, you got to go back
16:03
through the security checkpoint. So, I
16:04
got to make sure you have everything on
16:05
you. I've arrived at the city of trees.
16:17
I've been here once before. What about 6
16:17
months ago? 5 months ago, 3 months ago.
16:20
It was a few months ago.
16:23
This is all coming back to me now. Yeah,
16:25
I don't think they have an actual
16:27
Starbucks in here.
16:29
However, have this layout of the land of
16:31
all the different states that are
16:33
co-joined to Idaho. For example, you got
16:37
Montana up there. Got Idaho right here
16:40
symbolized here on this painting or on
16:42
the tile work. You got Washington. You
16:45
got Oregon, you got California, Nevada,
16:48
and Utah right there. All those
16:51
different states all connect in some way
16:54
or at least, you know, are co-joined
16:58
to the state of Idaho. And then Boise
17:01
is Where's a Boise? There's Boise right
17:03
there. There's a gargantuan bird right
17:06
there. I think I am going to get a cup
17:08
of Joe from this is a city of trees tree
17:10
fort outpost. They have food and drink
17:13
and probably Oh, there we go. They got
17:14
flying M coffee. I'll try some of that
17:16
flying M. Hey, coffee achieved from the
17:19
was it tree treeport treehouse tree
17:23
something coffee. So it's kind of
17:26
interesting. I was sitting up in the up
17:28
in the first class section of that tiny
17:30
little plane and every time I fly in
17:32
that particular seat area I think oh I
17:34
wonder if any any celebrities are going
17:36
to like sit next to me or who's in my
17:39
section or anything. And I wasn't even
17:41
thinking, but as I was sitting there,
17:44
I already put my put my bags up in the
17:47
above my seat next to me, Jason Muse
17:51
comes in and sits next to me. So, I sat
17:55
next to Jason Muse the whole flight.
17:59
Pretty cool. Obviously, I didn't, you
18:04
know, didn't get a photo with him or
18:05
didn't film him or anything, but yeah,
18:08
he sat next to me and the people that
18:09
were behind us
18:12
off to the side did not stop talking the
18:14
whole time. I had my headphones on, kind
18:17
of stayed to myself, didn't bother him.
18:19
He kind of stayed to himself. But the
18:21
people behind us, they were just talking
18:23
the whole flight. Thankfully, I had my
18:24
headphones on, so I didn't hear much of
18:26
it.
18:26
Every time there was like a pause in the
18:28
podcast or whatever I was listening to,
18:31
you could hear I'm still talking. So,
18:35
we got an earful.
18:43
Oh, man. The weather here is nice. This
18:43
is actually nicer out here than it is in
18:46
SoCal. This weather feels good. I got to
18:48
check the weather. 76°.
18:53
Yes, please. completely honest, I don't
18:55
really know what I'm going to do the
18:56
next couple days. The main reason I
18:58
wanted to come out here is I had a few
19:01
days between events in SoCal and the
19:03
next events and wanted to see my sister,
19:07
spend some time with her. So, decided to
19:10
hop on a plane and come out this way.
19:12
Originally, I had thought about flying
19:15
and going to the White Socks Rays and
19:17
the White Socks or the Rays White Sox
19:20
series, which has already happened. And
19:22
then game one today of the Chicago Cubs
19:26
versus the Rays. And I didn't I thought,
19:29
you know what, spent some time with
19:31
family. I've already knocked those
19:32
stadiums off my list. So, just kind of
19:34
thinking of things to do. And then I
19:36
think I made the right decision. The Ray
19:38
The Rays have not been doing good. I
19:40
think the postseason hopes of them
19:42
possibly getting the wild card happening
19:46
I don't think they're gonna happen.
19:48
>> I think it's a little little too late
19:51
and it's not going to happen. But
19:55
>> now what can you do? There's always next
19:56
year, right? I keep saying that every
19:58
year. No postseason for the Rays this
20:00
year unless a crazy miracle happens, you
20:03
know, unless a crazy miracle happens in
20:05
the last, you know, 10 15 games of the
20:08
season which They're like six six and a
20:11
half games back in the wild card. Seven
20:12
games back in the wild card. They would
20:14
have to win pretty much every game
20:17
starting, you know, tomorrow. Let me see
20:19
what the score is now. I think the game
20:21
was just ending. Just checked. Game just
20:24
ended. Rays lost to the Cubs.
20:28
Ah, they went on a little bit of a
20:30
stretch, a little hot streak
20:32
couple weeks ago and I thought, "Oh,
20:34
there's a possibility." started to get a
20:35
little excited when they were kind of on
20:37
a tear a couple weeks ago, but I'm just
20:39
waiting on my sister to come pick me up.
20:41
And then this is the baggage area. I
20:43
didn't have any baggage. I uh just did
20:46
carry on, so I had to put the bag above
20:47
my head. But this is the baggage claim
20:50
area.
20:55
Yeah, one day I'll get to another race
20:55
postseason baseball game. I was kind of
20:58
hoping this year they would do it just
20:59
because they're playing at Steinbrer.
21:00
There's a dog in this car. Look at this
21:01
right here. Third row seating right
21:03
here. And in the second row is a dog
21:07
with some pencils. And he got a little
21:08
monkey on his backpack there. This is
21:10
the Idaho Aviation Hall of Fame. The
21:14
wall that is a hall of fame. You got
21:17
Charles T. Reader here, William S. Hill,
21:20
Wayne White, Wilbur, Pete Hill, Walter
21:24
Vney, Jean Frank among many, many
21:27
others.
21:30
Deli and Alcoa,
21:33
Gwyn Hicks, Chad Molton. This was kind
21:37
of an impulsive trip. It wasn't last
21:39
minute, but it was very recently that I
21:41
decided just to pop over this direction.
21:45
The last time I I said like last time I
21:47
came out this direction, whenever that
21:49
was months ago, I flew from Orlando and
21:52
I had to have I had to do a layover.
21:54
There was no connecting flights or there
21:55
was connecting flights. There was no
21:57
direct flights. But this I thought, you
21:59
know what? Wouldn't be hard to just go
22:00
over to LAX and just hop a flight and uh
22:03
go over to back to Boise. So, I'm back
22:06
back here again. Not sure what I'm going
22:07
to do the next couple of days.
22:10
If I find something interesting, I'll
22:12
maybe film an episode or if I just want
22:15
to have some family time and not go out
22:16
and film anything. So, for some reason
22:19
tomorrow I don't film something, that's
22:22
the reason. We'll just kind of see how
22:24
it goes. But, really like this airport.
22:25
Very mellow, not very busy, super chill.
22:31
I'll see you in the next video. Thanks
22:32
for watching.
