0:20
beach itself gonna get close but not on
0:23
the beach itself
0:25
welcome everyone Adam the whoo here you
0:29

0:31
barricade like a little washboard and
0:34
that's Jay who I have not seen in quite
0:36
some time during all of this I went to
0:39
Florida but now I'm back this is your
0:41
neck of the woods correct this is my
0:43
home turf now give me kind of a layout
0:45
this is Newport you will learn boa and
0:49
the fun zones over there Huntington to a
0:52
beach down that way Gracie at all I'm
0:55
kind of noticing that there is a little
0:57
police presence out there on the water
0:59
so we're just gonna stay we are gonna
1:05
stay on this side of that Proclamation
1:09
sound good
1:11
inviting you to join me and Jay shall
1:15
you you nailed it
1:17
yeah just take a look over there there
1:19
are the officers it doesn't look like
1:22
they're handing out tickets of any sort
1:25
or even stopping anyone there are a lot
1:28
of people out there more than if he
1:31
doesn't over are you ready for the
1:35
pirate house are you this is amazing
1:51
located on the corner of Markus Avenue
1:51
and 35th Street and there is a plethora
1:55
of items adorning this facade even
1:58
tucked away over here where they park
2:00
the boats for the residents there are a
2:04
lot of scallywags taking over the entire
2:09
premises it's probably at least like
2:12
three or four dozen pirates now earlier
2:15
you were mentioning how you miss pirates
2:17
the Caribbean at Disney well I got a
2:18
surprise for you what Johnny Depp's
2:20
right right there like he's right over
2:22
your shoulder Johnny Depp is right there
2:25
that's really him a lot of people have
2:33
asked so this is this is the mode of
2:37
transportation that I recently that I
2:40
recently got there's this a residence is
2:42
this like a house or is it a business
2:45
residence wow there's a lot of that's
2:51
how Pirates do down the alley as well as
2:54
someone's scaffolding over there the
2:57
kind of looks like Weird Al Yankovic
2:59
there in the far right corner walk over
3:01
and get a little bit better are you
3:05
going with Princess Bride yeah nigo
3:09
Montoya and then you were saying
3:12
something about the red roosters that's
3:14
up on the roof you said a number of
3:17
these red roosters and they're on
3:18
different thing restaurants or famous
3:20
places so this is one of the famous red
3:22
roosters and this right here is a cosy
3:25
way to relax
3:27
next to Quasimodo oh hello there
3:32
oh that was alright gotta kick it the
3:35
six feet rule and up here this
3:38
gentleman's eyes he's got the he's got
3:45
the paper staring deep into her soul
3:52
this is the kind of fellow I would
3:52
picture like on a breakfast cereal box I
3:55
don't think he was on a breakfast cereal
3:57
Osby kind of reminds me of someone that
4:00
just makes you want to eat a little cold
4:03
breakfast cereal this early on I didn't
4:05
you didn't you instead of milk keep it
4:07
rough this one he here looks he's uh
4:10
he's a mean old cuss you know could just
4:14
be my first impression maybe he is a
4:16
nice a nice one but I don't know he kind
4:19
of looks like he's glimmering at me hit
4:22
he is the quintessential look for a
4:25
pirate
4:39
they have definitely made it very
4:39
difficult there's not only like a little
4:41
bit of a stanchion here but about half a
4:44
block down is another one and then
4:47
looking down this way so basically if
4:50
you were to take the bike path which is
4:53
currently this day not allowed you can
4:55
only go about maybe 30 40 feet before
4:58
you are stopped by another another piece
5:02
of tape they obviously don't have any
5:04
problem with riding around on the
5:06
surface streets there's a lot of people
5:07
out doing that but actually a tandem
5:10
bike is going by currently but no one no
5:14
one can go cos they're so sorry to
5:16
disappoint Jay womp-womp-womp sad
5:18
trombone
5:48
all right there's like some sort of a
5:48
market taking place here
5:58
doesn't really seem to be hindering any
5:59
sort of thing taking place just shy of
6:03
this little makeshift plastic
6:13
section
6:13
you got the foul the seagulls and the
6:15
birds got some surfers out there cannot
6:18
walk on the pier the gate is closed on
6:21
that here's a nice day especially in the
6:25
shade and there are some officers and
6:30
their trucks driving along the sand did
6:34
you expect this many people to be out
6:36
here not just many people and all these
6:39
businesses and diners and restaurants
6:40
are all open pretty crazy
6:43
this seems like almost like a less
6:45
populated normal day except for this
6:49
exactly this has been placed upon well
6:55
that's a cool little VW is that a VW Bug
7:01
found an open search op mass required
7:05
but I'm gonna go in and buy a hat like
7:07
the one Jay house I'm gonna continue
7:09
where is camouflage so you can't see the
7:11
bottom of it I'm gonna continue wearing
7:13
this not the mass once I get out of this
7:15
congregation of folks but I'm gonna
7:17
continue wearing this it's gonna help
7:18
block the Sun which it and got some
7:21
little h2o to stay hydrated I got Jason
7:24
water - where's your water
7:31
I gave it to you I gave it to you right
7:31
no did you yes
7:34
it's located right here in your cup
7:37
holder right there it's right there
7:38
judge
7:39
wait you're from here I guess you could
7:42
say this is a Silver Surfer the plaque
7:46
out the bottom says his name is Ben
7:49
Carlson after a little further
7:52
inspection it is as a lifeguard that is
7:54
a life-saving device he's holding not a
7:58
surfboard safe to say the birds aren't a
8:00
fan of it the birds aren't what have
8:04
they done no respect
8:05
oh no respect for lifeguard Carlsen
8:10
buildings by the birds phased it's just
8:13
a way of them showing affection classic
8:15
vehicle alert another one
8:35
this is about as far as well it
8:35
technically is as far out onto the pier
8:38
as I can wonder see a sailboat going by

9:07
good thing that we took our bikes

9:10
parkings are closed no how many people
9:12
