welcome
0:02
everyone ad of the woo here as a
0:04
recording of this it is Monday October
0:06
14th 20124 I am heading over to a place
0:10
I've never stayed at before right behind
0:13
Epcot right behind World
0:20
Showcase part of the
0:20
DVC which I have my appropriate backpack
0:23
I'm only staying for the evening so not
0:25
packing too much I'm going to be staying
0:27
at the Beach Club villas
0:30
I believe the closest proximity that one
0:34
could stay at to entering in to Disney's
0:38
Epcot Center I've never stayed there
0:41
used some DVC points booked it a month
0:43
or two ago and now the stay is here I'm
0:46
heading over I'm inviting you to join me
0:49
so going to do a little room tour
0:50
property tour and then pop into Epcot
0:52
and have an evening at Epcot and then
0:54
walk back to my room and
0:56
Slumber this should be interesting
0:58
inviting you to join me but not for the
1:01
Slumber shall you it is 400 p.m. right
1:04
now well actually it's 4:05 checkin is
1:06
at 4: and you can do it all online you
1:09
can always you can do it on the My
1:10
Disney Experience app link up the
1:13
reservation they let you know when your
1:15
room's ready so all I got to do is go to
1:16
my room all right this is
1:20
it there's a limo pulling in there look
1:22
at that the stretch limo pulling in just
1:26
got to show up here show your ID and
1:28
credentials and you're good to go
1:29
there's two of them there's yacht and
1:31
there's Beach Club it is directly across
1:33
a little Lagoon where I have stayed
1:35
before over at the Boardwalk
1:38
Villas and this is on the other side of
1:41
that Lagoon Yacht Club is that way Beach
1:44
Club is this way and I think of the two
1:46
this is as I stated the closest in
1:50
proximity to the world showcase
1:53
Gateway this is not one of my home
1:56
resorts I have a couple home resorts
1:59
this is not one to them what that means
2:01
is when you have a Disney Vacation Club
2:04
membership something that you paid for
2:06
for a series of years you have points
2:07
that are allotted that you can use each
2:09
and every year you can use up to those
2:12
points every year and if you don't use
2:14
them you can Bank them to the next year
2:17
you have to use them every two years
2:19
there is a 7mon window and 11mon window
2:22
the best way to think about it is 711 so
2:24
if you have a home Resort you can book
2:26
11 months
2:28
out which is almost here obviously a
2:30
month shy of a year but if you do not
2:32
have a home Resort you can only book 7
2:34
months out this is not my home Resort
2:36
but because you can't book I can only
2:38
book this 7 months out it fills up very
2:42
quickly and this is such a popular
2:43
Resort because it's so close to just
2:45
walking over into Epcot or getting the
2:47
Skyliner over into Studios so sometimes
2:49
they're not available that's why I've
2:51
not stayed here till now yeah this is
2:53
definitely a place all the years I've
2:55
been going to Epcot I was like Wonder
2:56
would it be like to stay that close
2:58
again stayed pretty dang close right
3:00
across the
3:03
Lagoon when I stayed there last year or
3:05
the year before when I stayed over at
3:07
the Boardwalk Villas but I have it say
3:09
at this one so you have the registration
3:11
pull in circle around you also have this
3:13
little walkway over there like a double
3:14
walkway you can choose which
3:17
walkway want to go in on I'm also
3:20
curious to see what side of the resort
3:22
I'm going to be on am I going to have a
3:23
view of any sort again do not have to go
3:25
check in but I am going to go inside the
3:27
lobby just to see what that is and you
3:29
can go in the past I've gone in get here
3:32
a little bit early see if you can get an
3:33
early check-in but because it's after
3:35
the 400 p.m. check-in I got an alert on
3:37
the app it said here's your room number
3:40
scan in with the magic band right here
3:41
or there is an unlock door feature on
3:44
the My Disney Experience app but I am
3:46
going to go in and just see what see
3:47
what's going on in the lobby ah classic
3:49
car alert out front look at this thing
3:51
it's like a what do they call this thing
3:52
an old it's not a woody cuz like a woody
3:54
would be like an extended like GIS wall
3:57
type of uh type of vehicle with wood on
3:59
the side that would be used for going to
4:00
the beach a station wagon that's what
4:02
I'm thinking of but this does have wood
4:04
on the side too so it's an old Chevy
4:07
it's an old Chevy right here this says
4:09
okay Disney's beach club resort not to
4:13
be confused with the yacht club that is
4:15
right next door now I've been in here
4:17
before for the holidays see the
4:19
Christmas decor sometimes the Easter
4:22
eggs but again never stayed here walk so
4:24
I walked out of the lobby if you go that
4:26
way hang a left right over that bridge
4:28
is into world showcase at Epcot and
4:31
right here is the lobby so that just
4:33
shows how close the proximity Is to
4:36
Epcot so you got the Lagoon there I was
4:38
referring to you just follow the path
4:39
right there what 200 yards I'm over in
4:41
the beach club market shop marketplace
4:44

4:45
little Christmas decor they already have
4:46

I've never seen this before on the back
5:10
it has all the different ones that you
5:11

5:18
the US and all that but yeah this is not
5:20
this is
5:21
just well you know what maybe it kind of

yeah I like these I like the I like
7:05
these type of snacks where you have like
7:07
couple M&M's in there a couple raisins
7:10
some nuts and things I like the Little

Mix this they call it Mountain mix but
7:13
other companies have it called something
7:15
else but I don't know something about is
7:16
very tasty look at this they have these
7:18
cupcakes right here this looks like a
7:20
taco with a mustache but then over here
7:23
is a big cake like you want to buy a
7:25
cake there it's got the It's the Mickey
7:27
ear cake I've never seen that before at
7:28
any of the GL Quick Service stop offs I
7:31
was going to purchase a pin from in
7:33
there but evidently they've been out of
7:36
the specific hens for the resort for a
7:39
little while so not going to get that
7:40
one again I live locally well not again
7:43
but I do live locally so I could come up
7:45
and get the pen at any time but
7:46
sometimes I just wait to get a pen until
7:49
till I'm actually staying at the place
7:50
it's kind of like a a thing to do it's
7:53
kind of like a nice little momento if
7:55
you will so here is the sign Disney
7:58
Beach Club villas a Disney Vacation
8:01
Resort and I was asking the cast member
8:04
in the store said I could go this way to
8:06
get to my room here we
8:09
go you know I've never walked through
8:13
this whole area before we never walk
8:14
through here I guess I should have gone
8:16
up to the front counter and got a
8:19
map CU I honestly don't see any numbers
8:23
on the side of
8:25
these there's a pool over here I think
8:27
there's three pools
8:34
and again epcos just right around that
8:34
corner if you look over there you can
8:35
see the Skyliner going by Skyliner right
8:40
there and it is not just a clever name
8:42
there is a beach here looking over at
8:45
the
8:46
boardwalk pirate ship another couple
8:48
pools over that way a volleyball court
8:52
here sand
8:54
volleyball I'm going to go back up to
8:56
the front desk I'm not sure I know I'm
8:58
in those room these rooms I'm
9:03
showing we go back to the front get a
9:03
map ah here's the map so what I was
9:06
looking at is technically beach club
9:08
resort the Beach Club Villas are
9:10
directly behind it okay so behind that
9:14
over there I found the actual specific
9:16
ones here there's the sign right there
9:17
Disney Beach Club Villas that's what I'm
9:19
looking for right there's a pool out
9:20
here too this must be one of the pools
9:22
this area here is called the Breezeway
9:24
take a look at this it's got a wooden
9:26
chandelier up there a nice little photo
9:28
there artistic rendering of
9:30
interpretation of the kind of place I'm
9:32
going to be staying at and look at this
9:33
little Al Cove freaking really cool
9:36
there's a fish right up there on top of
9:38
that North southeast west weather B
9:41
there's a lot of different there's a
9:43
crab there there's like a St or a bird
9:45
of some sort flying on top of that one
9:47
there's a lot of these there's a
9:48
lighthouse on top of this one there's a
9:50
whale on that one there's a fisherman
9:53
yeah I really like this a very extended
9:56
High Ved ceilings like that and then
9:58
over here a nice little sitting couch
10:01
area that you could rest in Lounge like
10:04
the carpet in here has like a little
10:05
coral reef feel to it this kind of
10:08
reminds me of and Kingdom Lodge my room
10:11
is way down here I don't know if this
10:14
that's the only elevator but it's way
10:16
down here that's way from here all right
10:18
room
10:19
tour
10:21
initiated you got a little safety
10:23
precautions here with everyone's
10:26
conscience Jiminy Cricket I just watched
10:29
Pinocchio this morning on the treadmill
10:32
I've been going through the 62 animated
10:35
Disney feature films that were theater
10:38
releases yesterday on the treadmill I
10:40
did Snow White today I did Pinocchio I
10:43
forgot how dark of a
10:46
movie Pinocchio was that whole Pleasure
10:49
Island saying and everyone turning into
10:53
donkeys yeah all right so this is a
10:57
one-bedroom Villa
10:59
this is the one-bedroom Villa for anyone
11:02
that's thinking about getting a room
11:04
here or wants to know what a room looks
11:06
like there is a regular room that does
11:09
not have an unattached one-bedroom
11:11
there's also two bedroom Villas that are
11:12
bigger than this one but this is the
11:14
one-bedroom villa which has a Murphy bed
11:18
this pulls out into a Murphy bed here so
11:20
this pulls down like that you got Huey
11:24
dewy Louie a turtle Donald there soaking
11:28
up some Sunray is while he's in the
11:30
ocean in the beach got a pretty good
11:33
view of the pool out there you got a TV
11:35
in this room you also have a full
11:38
kitchen which I did purchase a coffee at
11:41
the gift I got my bag there but there's
11:43
also look at this freaking thing not
11:46
only is it a curig you got a little one
11:49
cuper curig you can actually make a
11:51
family pot that is freaking a game
11:53
changer right there now I'm going to be
11:55
going to Alani in December big family
11:58
trip I'm kind of hoping they have those
12:00
in Alani right now that'd be kind of
12:01
nice you got the coffee
12:03
here you got some little GL wine glasses
12:07
up there comes with a
12:10
quinart toaster there full
12:13
stove also a full fridge well I'm 6 feet
12:18
tall like this is probably
12:20
44 size fridge pretty good size fridge
12:24
does not come with groceries you have to
12:26
supply those yourself
12:32
yeah I was really surprised that I was
12:32
able to get a one bedro I booked this
12:34
room about a month or two ago it's been
12:37
a while I knew I was going to be
12:39
traveling a lot but I was going to be
12:40
home in October so I did book it popped
12:43
up I thought you know it be kind of kind
12:45
of need to finally stay there do a room
12:47
tour stay there as well this is kind of
12:50
looking out on the the balconies here
12:52
the sun is
12:53
perating at the moment this is really
12:55
close to where I parked over there
12:58
there's the parking lot this is not a
13:00
Theme Park View room however the pool is
13:03
really mellow so there's the pool right
13:05
there there's three pools I have access
13:06
to maybe more this one's really mellow
13:09
so I'll probably hit the hot tub a
13:10
little bit later once the sun goes down
13:12
it's too hot for the hot tub now you got
13:14
a chair out here you got a little area
13:18
next to put your stuff on it end table
13:20
if you will or middle table if you will
13:22
and then you got another chair there
13:25
little balcony I have stayed in
13:26
one-bedroom Villas before where my aunt
13:29
and my three nephews or second
13:33
cousins stayed I always refer to them as
13:36
nephews but really I think their second
13:37
cousins about 6 7even 8 months
13:40
ago we stayed in a one-bedroom vill at a
13:43
different Resort it was set up the same
13:44
way they pulled this
13:46
out my mom and I stayed at my place
13:49
while my aunt and them stayed on
13:51
property they had plenty of room where
13:52
my aunt was in the main Red
13:59
Room the only difference is that place
14:00
had another bed that pulled out of here
14:02
like a smaller bed that pulled out of
14:06
there one bedroom Villa is a is a good
14:09
spot plenty of room just simply because
14:11
you not only have the Murphy bed there
14:16
but you also have a big bed in
14:18
here so you have looks like a king-size
14:22
bed carpet on the ground here got a
14:25
little area here does this open up no it
14:28
doesn't open up little bench there TV in
14:31
here as well got a lounge
14:34
chair you got some seagulls up there on
14:37
that little art print little
14:39
photograph also got a desk if you need
14:41
to do a little
14:44
work this is where I'm going to be
14:45
slumbering
14:54
later and I probably will take a bath in
14:54
this I'll be honest I'm going to utilize
14:56
now other ones I've seen I believe
15:00
where Bay Lake Tower has a setup like
15:02
this except the Bay Lake Tower there is
15:05
a door that slides across so you can
15:07
look over at the bed while you're taking
15:10
a bath so there's like an opened area
15:12
this one's enclosed which is interesting
15:15
you got the little sea salt bass soaps
15:18
there you also have the little body
15:22
lotions you have extra plank extra
15:26
blanket and pillow up there little St
15:28
storage area and then in here
15:32
this is a door if you close that
15:36
door you could see the restroom and the
15:39
restroom has a glassed off shower which
15:42
is
15:43
nice the comode and everything is in
15:46
there there are two doors you have one
15:48
to the main bedroom and then you also
15:52
have this door which leads out so
15:54
there's one bathroom not two bathrooms
15:57
and you have two accessible points one
16:00
there and one there and then
16:04
here are the
16:07
facilities so that's the room tour went
16:09
ahead and close the curtains for
16:11
now go go over to the park at Epcot and
16:14
I'll pop back in I really like how
16:16
Donald is prominently displayed on these
16:18
curtains and then when it cools down
16:21
really like those pillows too like those
16:24
pillows when it cools down I'll come
16:26
back hit the pool
16:29
hit the hot tub but I want to get some
16:31
Epcot in walk over to Epcot also forgot
16:33
to point out that there's plenty
16:36
of cups
16:39
plates cooking
16:46
accessories coffee mugs bowls things
16:46
like
16:47
that all through here
16:49
too I think when you get to the bottom
16:51
floor
17:06
nope must be the other elevator Mickey
17:06
talks in the other
17:07
elevator tells you what floor you're on
17:09
all right got to walk over to Epcot now
17:12
not far at all just over that little
17:15
hill now when you're staying on property
17:17
all depends on what park you're going to
17:18
be going to if you're going to go to all
17:20
the parks you want a centralized Resort
17:22
but if you're more of an Epcot person
17:24
and you're going to be going to Epcot or
17:25
say Studios this is a great and you're
17:28
going to be doing the vacation club or
17:29
you're going to be getting a room these
17:31
are just this is just the wing over here
17:33
for DVC members but there is a whole
17:35
other section of this Resort which are
17:37
nightly rates and all that as well but
17:39
this is really good for going into Epcot
17:42
around through World Showcase kind of
17:44
similar to how Bay Lake Tower and the
17:46
Contemporary you can just walk into
17:48
Magic Kingdom that is one of my
17:49
favorites to stay out when you just want
17:51
to walk into Magic Kingdom to mess with
17:52
the monreal or anything like that kind
17:54
of like this is that
17:56
version in CL as far as proximity goes
17:59
as that would be for Magic Kingdom
18:01
because Epcot is just right there so if
18:03
you were like if you just want to go to
18:05
Epcot multiple days or take the Skyliner
18:07
over to Studios or just walk to Studios
18:10
this is that resort to do so so freaking
18:13
excited to be here this close and just
18:16
later on just walk right back to the
18:18
room you one of those bikes that you get
18:21
a whole group of people on or ride Solo
18:23
or double up so right there is the
18:25
Skyliner so this bridge is very
18:27
interesting years ago got my first
18:29
annual pass in 2001 I've been a pass
18:30
holder pretty much on and off since then
18:32
pretty consistently since
18:34
20012 2002 but prior to that before I
18:38
would go into the park you know I I get
18:40
a day ticket occasionally but rarely I
18:42
would come sometimes I would come up
18:44
here on this very balcony and I would
18:45
watch the fireworks spectacular over on
18:48
the world showcase Lagoon from here
18:51
without going in the park so it's just
18:53
kind every time I walk over this bridge
18:55
that's what I think about I think of
18:56
just like standing here watching the
18:58
fireworks from here without actually
19:00
paying to go in the park my first annual
19:02
pass I purchased in 2001 was I think
19:04
about
19:05
$310 I could be off a couple dollars on
19:08
that yeah around $300 and it wasn't the
19:10
lowest tier it wasn't the full no
19:12
blackout I think there was maybe like
19:14
two or 3 weeks of blackout dates but it
19:16
was pretty much all the dates with the
19:18
exception of like Christmas and New
19:20
Year's and like major holidays
19:23
$300 compared to compared to now which
19:25
is a little bit more than that a couple
19:27
dollars more maybe the first time I've
19:28
ever walked in from this side and see
19:31
cuz I've walked over from Studios before
19:33
and seen a line like this but then again
19:36
it is 541 so people are showing up after
19:39
after work and whatnot I am definitely
19:41
team rope drop after other I'm
19:43
definitely team rope drop when it comes
19:45
to Epcot as opposed to later in the
19:47
evening but I am here take a look over
19:48
here across the Lagoon way over there
19:50
that's Disney Springs that is the
19:51
balloon is up and running over at Disney
19:54
Springs way over there I've never
19:55
noticed before as this friendship boat
19:57
goes by I'm going to do I'm going to do
19:59
the Epcot Loop I'm going do the world
20:00
showcase Loop I've never noticed that
20:02
down here there's also a roped upside
20:04
down Hidden Mickey right there you also
20:06
I think this just used for theming
20:08
you'll never see that boat out in the
20:09
world showcase Lagoon there's also the
20:12
sun is permeating but we'll be setting
20:14
very soon there's the tower yeah it
20:16
seems to be uh seems to be pretty busy
20:18
back here all right I've kind of escaped
20:20
most of the the masses that were back
20:22
over near the American Garden theater a
20:25
band called Switchfoot is playing they
20:26
know a couple of their songs I've had
20:28
over to the Mexico Pavilion been craving
20:30
nachos all day a quick service place
20:32
right across from the Pavilion that has
20:34
pretty good nachos right you see the sun
20:36
is like like a beacon the sun is saying
20:38
come over here and get some of those
20:40
delicious nachos over here at La Cantina
20:44
of you that's what it's called La
20:47
Cantina right there here we go tacos and
20:50
nachos all right there was no line I got
20:51
Lu out everyone's everyone's all into
20:53
Food and Wine Fest and all the little
20:55
stands but I'm uh going over here to the
20:58
actual quick service $15 for everything
21:01
on the nachos all over here there you go
21:04
thank you here it is $15 worth of nachos
21:07
this would be like this would be
21:10
like I don't know a lot better deal than
21:12
purchasing the uh the ones that the
21:14
things that the booth to be honest yeah
21:16
this is definitely a go-to snack or a
21:18
go-to meal option at Epcot and honestly
21:21
is pretty reasonably priced in compar of
21:22
what you get at the food festival boost
21:24
you have to order like five things to
21:26
get an amount of food this much it would
21:28
cost you like three times as much I know
21:29
$15 seems pricey but yeah yeah I'm going
21:32
to put that in one of my uh top top
21:35
go-to delicious items Quick Service
21:37
items for a reasonable price and usually
21:40
a pretty short weight most time nine
21:42
times out of 10 a pretty short
21:44
weight also kind of excited next year I
21:47
was stating about how I'm going to be
21:48
going to a lot of international places I
21:50
don't know when I'm going to go to
21:51
Mexico definitely Mexico is on my to-do
21:54
list I've been to Tijana but I don't
21:57
really consider that going in the the
21:58
heart of Mexico I mean that's just right
21:59
over the the border from California but
22:01
I'd like to get to some of the other
22:03
Mexico places one day it it might might
22:06
not be at the first of the year but at
22:08
some point in the international travels
22:10
the gift shop of one of the entrances
22:11
into World Showcase take a look at this
22:13
they have the freaking Cake Castle 25th
22:17
anniversary
22:19
1996 at M I actually have a photo in
22:22
front of this Castle from 1996 just had
22:24
the 50th a few years ago what four years
22:26
ago and this was half of that so 1996
22:29
they made the castle look like a cake
22:31
they don't have it in my size but if
22:33
they did I would definitely be buying
22:35
that shirt just a quick little
22:37
In-N-Out go underneath the
22:40
Skyliner back over to my
22:43
hotel not far just right over there
23:07
this drops off at the
23:10
Skyliner which is right right past the
23:24
bridge friendship boats everywhere out
23:27
here look at that that
23:30
Sunset that is made to sit on a beach
23:32
chair and watch that's what I'm going to
23:34
do I'm going to go right over
23:45
there so there's a pool over here that
23:45
has sand on the bottom of
23:55
neat and there's also a water slide that
23:55
comes out of a pirate ship over there
24:12
getting a little bit of wake here from
24:13
boats very
24:22
beautiful there's the pirate ship right
24:22
there oh it looks as if they're setting
24:23
up so that's the pirate ship and there's
24:26
a slide that goes down you go over that
24:28
that way and into the pool they are
24:30
setting up oh they're doing a little
24:31
roasting marshmallows over here as well
24:32
for guests but then they have all this
24:35
set up they're going to have a movie
24:36
projection I've seen this at other
24:37
Resorts and they do a movie on the
24:41
beach pretty
24:44
neat stay at the resorts is really nice
24:47
if you ever get a chance to do it
24:49
definitely is cool to stay on property
24:51
all right there is the bottom of the
24:53
water slide now they do have a tendance
24:54
they have Cas miv when you try to go
24:56
into the pool you have to show your
24:58
magic band and or room key to get the
25:01
wristband so you just can't like go
25:03
wandering around through here you have
25:05
to be staying here to get in because
25:07
it's so close to the park I'm sure
25:09
people probably try to just walk in and
25:12
check out the pool but you have to be
25:13
staying on property in order to even get
25:16
a closeup Gander at the pool this is the
25:19
one with the this is the one with the
25:21
sand on the bottom of the pool and to
25:23
even add a little more excitement there
25:25
is a whirl pool right over in this area
25:28
so this area here you kind of like come
25:30
off of this area you walk over here and
25:33
in there as you come along this way
25:35
there is a circular pattern Whirlpool
25:39
right here so you can see how the water
25:41
is circulating around so if you want
25:43
like you can see it kind of like
25:44
fashioning itself around this way and
25:47
zipping around in a Whirlpool fashion
25:49
creating like a little Whirlpool there
25:51
and a little circular pattern that's
25:52
pretty neat right yeah who knew there's
25:54
a
25:56
whirlpool in Disney World out there's a
25:58
windmill right here not a whole lot of
26:01
people in the pool at this hour now
26:02
there's even like a little waterfall
26:04
over there as well most people are
26:05
probably get the park I didn't realize
26:07
there's also a lazy river over here that
26:09
runs all around the perimeter and then
26:11
over into the main pool past the
26:13
windmill didn't realize there was a lazy
26:15
river definitely a pretty awesome pool
26:17
for the main pool there are a few pools
26:18
but this is like the main one got the
26:21
Lazy River you even have a little beach
26:23
sand area that goes into the pool and
26:26
sand in the bottom of the pool there's
26:27
also a Ship Shape fitness place Fitness
26:30
Center rules 24-hour access so if you
26:32
wanted to get your Fitness on the last
26:34
couple days I've been on the tread bill
26:36
in my home gym but I must say they have
26:38
quite the Arsenal of different it
26:42
different you know different versions of
26:45
workout equipment in here that you can
26:47
use and there's it's kind of interesting
26:48
that at the time I'm just kind of mosing
26:50
around through here there's not a soul
26:52
in here by myself checking it out I mean
26:54
just like a gargantuan amount of workout
26:58
machines pretty a actually really really
27:00
nice and air conditioning I like my I
27:02
don't like my garage which didn't have
27:04
doesn't have air conditioning but I have
27:06
a fat on me I like to sweat a lot when I
27:08
when I do the tread I do like to sweat
27:10
it kind of feels like I'm doing more
27:11
than I really am if I'm drenched in
27:13
sweat full on Arcade as well next to the
27:17
gy they have all kind of they have ski
27:19
ball they have basketball they have a
27:21
variety of different games in here look
27:23
at all these games which are located
27:25
right outside the pool right beside the
27:27
pool area got to head back back through
27:28
the lobby go back to my room for a
27:30
little bit might change and go hit the
27:32
hot tub maybe the pool the smaller
27:36
smaller pool not the sand pool the pool
27:37
that's like right by my room didn't seem
27:40
to be anybody in that one which sounds
27:42
fantastic right about now so I really
27:44
like this aerial sculpture right here
27:46
says Disney Vacation Club this is when
27:48
you're walking into the Villa section
27:50
you look over here this room's open as
27:52
well there's a pool table there's some
27:54
little lounge chairs there's all kind of
27:56
like activities that you can do inside
27:57
there
27:58
as well you could go inside too I just
28:01
was peeking through just was peeking
28:02
through the window this area has my name
28:04
written all over there's like two people
28:07
in the pool on the other side of the
28:09
pool my room is like right up there this
28:12
right here open till 11: don't
28:15
mind don't mind if I do I love I love
28:19
when there's not a lot of people in a in
28:21
a resort pool it's kind almost like
28:23
you've like hit the lottery cuz that
28:24
rarely happens here have some Foos ball
28:26
little Foos ball and and some chess over
28:30
here very very nice got some chest
28:32
plenty of
28:33
seats even the main pool was not really
28:36
that busy but definitely this one not
28:40
busy at
29:11
it's nice all lit up at night out here
29:11
along the beach there are some pontoons
29:13
lining up preparing for the Epcot
29:16
fireworks people have also grabbed the
29:18
chairs and got a little little spot over
29:21
here and it appears oh look over there
29:24
that's a Hollywood Studios you see the
29:26
top of Fantasmic happening over at
29:28
Hollywood Studios I didn't realize you
29:30
could see that I me I knew Hollywood
29:32
Studios is over there but I didn't
29:33
realize you could see the part of the
29:34
fireworks over there on the top of the
29:36
boardwalk like that pretty cool comes
29:39
another little bicycle rolling
29:46
through now honestly these pontoons
29:46
might go farther over towards Epcot I
29:49
don't know if they're going to sit right
29:51
here I don't know if that would be the
29:53
best viewing experience for a pontoon
29:55
boat now I'm going to stay right here or
29:58
at least in this General vicinity and
30:00
see if I can see the fireworks which are
30:02
going to be happening about a half hour
30:04
it's 8:30 right now these pontoons might
30:07
end up going that direction over towards
30:11
World Showcase Lagoon yep pontoons are
30:14
moving up I just heard a little honk and
30:16
now they are all in a single file line
30:19
going underneath the bridge probably off
30:22
to one side in case another friendship
30:23
boat comes by over here so you got
30:26
everyone heading over to little showcase
30:28
Lagoon to get a good view of the
30:39
fireworks
30:39
pontoon
30:42
parade it's a pontoon parade I walked
30:44
over here to get a view across the water
30:47
from the resort I'm staying at so Beach
30:50
Club stretches all the way from that end
30:53
and it goes all the way across you got
30:55
the lighthouse right there you got the
30:57
main area area there's the windmill
30:59
there from the pool I showed and then
31:01
you're getting into the other section
31:03
here and now you're getting over towards
31:05
the DVC Villas there on that end at the
31:08
entrance to Epcot I am on the boardwalk
31:10
side looking across at the boardwalk and
31:12
of course you see the swan peeking up
31:15
over the top there the dolphin peeking
31:17
up over the top there and that gives the
31:19
whole perimeter there showing the
31:22
showing the beach club there so it kind
31:24
of it's pretty pretty expansive it goes
31:26
from there all the way way
31:28
over to there right scratch that I am
31:31
incorrect Beach Club there Yacht Club
31:34
there together they are yacht and Beach
31:37
Club so Beach Club is half of what
31:39
you're looking at behind me so you got
31:40
Yacht Club and Beach Club you get the
31:53
idea truth though this might be the spot
31:55
to watch the New Year's Eve fireworks
31:57
this is a good freaking
32:07
view without being in the madness of
32:07
being in there which is just
32:09
horrible this is a really good
32:17
view maybe not but it's getting really
32:17
close this is the crescendo there it is
32:20
there it is
32:44
oh I should also show there is a laundry
32:44
mat also you got the washers and dryers
32:47
quite a few of
32:56
them little fan in here as well and you
32:56
got laundry detergent Etc over
33:00
there always nice to do
33:02
laundry when you need
33:07
to I was just noticing so heading back
33:10
to my room which is right up there where
33:11
I was just pointing the camera at right
33:13
inside there inside that window is that
33:17
painting and I took a little bit of a
33:19
detailed look at it noticing that the
33:21
painting is the exact angle more or less
33:24
give take a few feet of where my room is
33:27
over looking is kind of the experience I
33:29
just had with the fireworks over Epcot
33:31
looking down on The View on the view of
33:33
the pool the Disney Vacation Club Tower
33:36
and all that from the same angle so it's
33:38
kind of neat that it's kind of the room
33:41
that I have more or less I mean not
33:43
exactly and it's an artistic rendering
33:45
of what it looks like but still pretty
33:47
neat and there's the angle From A
33:49
Balcony here
33:52
balcony there's the same angle pretty
33:56
cool right
33:57
I didn't notice that the first time I
33:59
looked at it but now passed back by I
34:01
was like wow that's
34:18
cool now I'm kind of
34:18
wondering I might have been able to see
34:20
the fireworks from right
34:23
here
34:24
hey maybe I could have it's time
34:29
it's
34:36
time not a bad way to close out the
34:36
day very warm water here in this tub
34:39
there was no bubble bath though should
34:40
have bought some Mr Bubble or something
34:41
with me they had soap no bubble stuff
34:45
that's going to do it for today thanks
34:46
for watching I'll see you in the next
34:47
video the Vlog I love this tub the Vlog
34:52
