0:11 front of the solar powered Mickey D's

1:02 me it's good to have you here shall you
1:06 whenever I go to that particular Park I
1:09 always stop off right here because you
1:11 can always get a a nice little caffeine
1:13 intake before heading in to the theme
1:16 parks it's just located right outside
1:17 Animal Kingdom all right I'm not the
1:19 first one here there are a few other
1:20 people lining up for a little
1:24 celebratory mour all right 15 minutes
1:27 until rope drop which is the open
1:28 official opening of the park even though
1:30 there might be some early entry for
1:32 guess you're staying at Resorts however
1:35 it's
1:35 66° and by noon it's only going to be at
1:38 72 I'm not going to stay here super long
1:40 today I'm not going to stay here until
1:41 the early afternoon or night or
1:44 anything so I'm going to be getting some
1:46 good weather not only do I have my
1:47 appropriate shirt on I also got some
1:49 colorful shorts and I'm rocking the
1:52 Sionis today all right I got in and in
1:54 line before they dropped the
1:57 rope and rope drop is just another name
1:59 for the open
2:00 of the parks but you can see I am not
2:03 the only one
2:06 here one's waiting patiently to head to
2:09 the Tree of Life soon as the Rope
2:22 drops oh yes the icon of this park the
2:22 tree of hopefully they do some sort of a
2:24 ceremony hopefully they have some some
2:26 nice
2:27 merch they probably will oh there are bu
2:30 being emitted from this trash can I
2:32 never realized they do the the bubbles
2:34 out of the trash can right there look at
2:36 that pretty interesting right bubble can
2:39 bubble can alert and it's not really the
2:41 sun is not completely up yet maybe there
2:43 will be some animals out I'll test out
2:44 the roach drop Safari Theory right now
2:49 plenty of Elbow Room through this
2:50 section at the moment I'm contemplating
2:52 if I should just put this pin on I'm
2:53 going to put it on my corkboard when I
2:55 get home but maybe I'll wear this today
2:56 think I think maybe I will also I like
2:58 that it has the the card also but but
2:59 usually I take them off the card throw
3:01 the cards out and then throw them on my
3:03 pin board so can wear it all right it
3:05 says 25
3:08 minutes see if that is
3:10 accurate it's 811 right now all right I
3:14 haven't decided if I'm going to keep
3:15 this on I'm kind of worried it's going
3:16 to fall off also Ariel is holding the
3:19 Earth which spins there I think I might
3:21 just take this off and put it in my
3:22 pocket I don't want to risk losing it
3:23 this is what the back looks like they do
3:26 make different clamps that are stronger
3:27 than the little rubber ones but yeah
3:31 sometimes these rubber ones pop
3:32 off don't want to leave a little
3:34 souvenir on the ground and lose this
3:38 pretty cool looking though I like it
3:40 these are the weight times check out
3:42 Avatar 105 minutes I probably should
3:45 have headed over to Everest for only a 5
3:46 minute wait for Expedition Everest but
3:48 I'm in the Safari all right it is now
3:50 8:21 it was a 20 minute wait exactly
4:01 before to 3,000 lb sounds pretty big but
4:01 they're actually the smallest of the
4:02 African
4:04 rhinos this is the black
4:11 rhinoceros there are five Rhino species
4:11 on Earth they're actually female Bongos
4:13 the females do have horns males are
4:16 usually a lot darker on their head and
4:18 shoulders if you look to the left and
4:21 right there are also some gray antelopes
4:23 so there's one crossing the road just
4:24 ahead of us the gray ones are called
4:27 greater Kudos and females in that speci
4:30 do not have horns they actually use
4:32 their legs to push themselves along the
4:34 rivered they can't really
4:35 float
4:37 they're inside there's a couple of
4:39 African painted dogs nestled in
4:42 there kind of a light brown with spots
4:44 of black and white I know they're
4:45 looking very cute right now but these
4:47 are not pets even though they are called
4:50 the African painted dog this is one of
4:53 the most successful Predators on the
4:55 Savannah they are not domesticated in
4:57 any way shape or form they're in the
5:00 canid family but they're like distant
5:02 cousins to domestic one zebra ends and
5:05 the next one
5:07 begins also each one of those striping
5:09 patterns is unique so you'll never see
5:11 these patterns ever
5:13 again now there are actually three zebra
5:16 species on Earth this is just one of
5:17 them called the harman's mountain zebra
5:19 colored skin on his face but the
5:23 intensity of the color can change
5:25 according to his mood mes now an
5:28 elephant's trunk both their nose and
5:30 their upper lip they have more muscles
5:33 in their chunk than we have in our
5:34 entire body in a group called a
5:37 pride beautiful look at that male
5:41 there little bit of SC marking on that
5:45 tree now Lions aren't very active during
5:48 the day to in Africa they are very cute
5:51 now they actually have four tusks on
5:53 their face they'll use those tasks to
5:55 dig and defend themselves now these
5:58 animals have aoid so we get to be their
6:01 voice for them pick your favorite animal
6:03 that you saw out there now go spread the
6:06 word share some facts you might know
6:07 share your excitement as well we all
6:10 have the power to protect these animals
6:12 for future generations to see just like
6:14 we got to
6:16 today probably top five safaris that
6:18 I've been on I've done safaris during
6:20 the day but some of the best safaris are
6:22 at dusk when the right before the park
6:24 closes when the last Safari of the day
6:26 runs or when the Park first opens so if
6:29 you get it when the when the weather
6:31 isn't too incredibly hot I think that's
6:33 the secret not that I'm an expert on
6:35 safaris or anything however I did not
6:37 realize that there was a place that you
6:38 could look at the
6:40 flamingos and in a slowed down form what
6:43 are they doing they're like they're
6:45 excited they're excited that it's Earth
6:47 die look at this they're like Circle

18:01 the very very front row so this is where
18:03 the animatronic used to be but the
18:05 animatronic no longer works anymore all
18:08 right that was
18:14 awesome but I also like how this entire
18:14 show gives kids so much anxiety and so
18:18 much like they're scared leaving this
18:20 they were scared leaving the theater and
18:23 like scary that's fun probably not it's
18:28 a bad idea you know what I just realized
18:29 while watching that what so Larry larva
18:32 on the Terr tra tour at Universal last
18:35 year they took this
18:37 idea they basically took into a bug well
18:40 yeah kind of but then Larry larva was
18:42 basically the villain in this hopper
18:46 Hopper yeah right you remember I don't
18:49 think I went on it think I went to to
18:51 horor I last year at univ okay well
18:54 never mind then never mind we were
18:56 discussing food and with a lot of Disney
18:59 events usually when they cater to a
19:01 certain celebration of sorts they always
19:03 have a a treat like a cupcake and
19:06 desserts not usually a lot of savory
19:09 items I think we discovered a well Tim
19:11 discovered a Savory item it's like a
19:14 what is this a pizza a pizza yeah I
19:17 think it's a vegetarian pizza sound good
19:19 I think it has leaks on it okay that
19:22 works yeah they wasalu you with a bird
19:25 yeah what the heck you got a bird over
19:27 your head
19:35 I like that they put like a hat on the
19:35 fence like it's our fallen
19:37 friend yeah my lower torso is like
19:39 really skinny compared to the heaviness
19:41 of my
19:42 head right there like a bobble head I do
19:46 look kind of like a bobble head that's
19:48 my Earth Day physique oh yeah I like it
19:51 big head tiny remember the band bige
19:54 Head Todd and the Monsters yeah was the
19:57 singer's name Todd I don't
20:15 know mushroom I think I'm going to get
20:15 one of those
20:17 too one thing I like when I whenever I
20:20 eat leaks I want them I definitely want
20:21 them brazed not not brazed going to have
20:25 leak she should probably braze
20:27 them learned that a long time ago you
20:29 always want your leaks
20:31 braced this is this is for Earth week
20:34 thank you oh that it I'm going to
20:37 get one too this is it I got lucky I got
20:39 more braz leaks than you did because I
20:42 was promoting the braz leaks they were
20:43 like let's throw a little bit more on
20:45 Adams than Tim I feel bad that I got
20:47 more brazed leaks than you did look at
20:49 this look at this do you want to take a
20:51 leak yeah let me have you take a Le do
20:54 you want to take a leak and put I'll
20:55 take at least three of those leaks you
20:57 want to take a leak I'll put put it on
20:58 mine cuz mine doesn't have as many leaks
21:00 in it here Tim take a leak all right
21:03 I'll take Tim if you want to take a leak
21:05 take a leak all just take a leak right
21:08 here I know I'm just going to take one
21:09 take a leak right here I'll take one of
21:10 these leaks take a leak right no said
21:12 take a leak take a leak take a leak
21:14 right here take Le the more you say it
21:16 the stranger it
21:19 sounds you want one no okay but is there
21:22 real cheese seems kind of kind of silly
21:24 to put real cheese on there if you're
21:26 put impossible I guess that's fine right
21:29 be
21:30 vegetarian it's earthy
21:33 M for Earth they D that's
21:37 good you're right they got a good pizza
21:40 yeah it's really
21:41 good I'm going to agree with you that
21:45 that review of it being earthy is 100%
21:48 true that's what this is very earthy
21:50 mushroomy the leaks add a little bit of
21:52 like a brightness to it I haven't gotten
21:56 the meatball yet me I have one meatball
21:57 on mine
21:59 they loaded mine
22:01 up that meatball is very good kind of a
22:04 little
22:06 bit like a almost like a bready flavor
22:09 to it or bready consistency to
22:11 it that's good I like this a lot
22:15 829 I would get it
22:28 again there's Goofy and Max there Max
22:28 and Goofy couple minutes see you guys
22:32 later all right we're now heading over
22:35 to
22:37 Dinosaur the dinosaur attraction has
22:39 reopened we're going to go check it out
22:41 yes one day this will not be the dino
22:43 Institute anymore and it will probably
22:45 most likely hearsay and Rumor Mill says
22:49 it might be Indiana Jones
23:01 let's go get that
23:01 Dino watch out
23:13 this oh we're not going to make it might
23:13 be my new favorite
23:14 photo that's pretty
23:22 good going to go on triatop spin now
23:22 it's kind of interesting I've been on
23:23 Dumbo probably like 500 times in my life
23:26 I've only been on this once I've been on
23:28 the Aladdin one a couple times too now I
23:30 think of the two you kind of it kind of
23:31 looks like Dumbo but I think is probably
23:33 more comparable to going on Magikarp
23:36 carpets with Aladdin over to vland at
23:38 magicum just simply because you not only
23:40 go up and down but you can also tilt
23:42 side to side the back the front Rudder
23:44 if you will the front little mechanism
23:47 uh has it so he can go up and down
23:49 controls the up and down portion and
23:51 then the back one where I was sitting
23:53 makes it to where you can go like level
23:55 or not level you tilt the forward tilt
23:57 it backwards so you kind of like the
23:58 magic carpets I would compare it more to
24:00 the magic carpets that I would Dumbo
24:01 even though you the sleekness of the the
24:05 design of the Triceratops look more
24:08 Dumbo ask than the magic carpets that be
24:10 the only
24:41 animals all right I had to purchase
24:41 another one of the earthday pens I took
24:44 it off of my you know collared shirt on
24:47 the pocket put it in my pocket and was
24:50 really careful with my phone and wallet
24:52 and everything on the rides but
24:54 evidently I left this in on dinosaur and
24:56 now a dinosaur is in possession
24:58 of my Earth Day 2024 pin so I just
25:01 bought another one and then that way
25:03 I'll put it on my little cork board when
25:06 I get home it's all good but I kind of
25:08 put it in the universe that I
25:10 would thought I was going to lose it
25:13 took it off because I thought I'd lose
25:15 it and even though I went took the
25:18 precautions I lost
