Leaving Idaho
Transcript
0:03
Welcome everyone.
0:04
Adam the Woo here. I'm back at another
0:05
airport. As the recording of this, it is
0:07
Monday,
0:09
September 15, 2025,
0:13
Boisee, Idaho.
0:16
I was only here for a couple days, but
0:18
now I'm heading back to the greater Los
0:20
Angeles area, flying to LAX, where I
0:23
will then grab a ride share and head
0:25
down to Orange County Anaheim for a
0:28
short while. And then after a couple
0:30
days, other areas of not only the OC,
0:34
but also greater LA area. It's a travel
0:37
day. It's bright out here. Very few
0:38
clouds in the sky, if any. Only couple
0:41
of little streaky clouds over there.
0:44
Feels good out. Nice and warm. Well, not
0:47
too warm, but warm enough to feel a
0:50
little sun permeating through through
0:52
the hat, through my glasses, through the
0:56
backpack, and through here. probably a
0:58
lot warmer in California than it is
1:00
here. I'll check momentarily.
1:03
I c I got a plane to catch and I'm
1:05
inviting you, yes you, to join me. It's
1:08
good to have you here.
1:10
Shall you? Doesn't look like there's
1:12
hardly anyone in line for TSA. The
1:15
checkpoints over there. Very mellow.
1:18
Very mellow indeed. I'm going to say I'm
1:19
going to just walk right up and go right
1:21
in after showing my
1:23
credentials.
1:26
had a good time. Just a couple days here
1:29
in the Boisee area hanging out with my
1:31
sister.
1:33
But now it's time to get back to
1:35
California. At some point I will go
1:37
home. At some point I will get back
1:39
before the end of the month back to
1:41
Celebration Florida. It feels like I
1:42
haven't really been home at all the last
1:44
few months or at least this whole year.
1:46
But I'll get back there eventually and
1:49
once I'm back, my plans are to be home
1:51
for a solid month when I finally get
1:53
back, whatever that is. Take a look at
1:55
this. There's like hard I mean you still
1:56
got these like these little back and
1:58
forths, but there's really no one in
2:00
line. There's my flight right up there.
2:02

2:07
is Delta 3694
2:10
is the flight number. B20 departs at
2:15
3:45 p.m. Boards at 3:15. Current time
2:19

they have is dark roast, which that'll
2:34
work. $4. Don't have any change. They do
2:36
have a crisp five or semi crisp five.
2:40
So, I'm going to go ahead and get my uh

2:46
in there right there.

8:51
Heat.
11:32
All right, exited out into this little
11:32
area. This looks like it's just been
11:34
recently redone.
11:41
See that iconic little archway
11:41
area over out outside there? Yeah, I
11:45
think last time I was through here,
11:46
which is wasn't that long ago, this is
11:47
still under construction or
11:51
I'm going through a different area.
12:27
It is rush hour now. Timewise, like 5
12:27
o'clock.
12:28
So, getting down to Orange County. Yeah,
12:30
it's 4:56
12:32
California time.
12:34
5:56 Idaho time. Hour time difference.
12:40
So, I'm not in any rush to get an Uber
12:42
into Orange County cuz I'm sure traffic
12:44
is horrible right now.
13:04
and to go catch my ride share
13:04
and just walk. I'm not going to take the
13:05
shuttle. I've just learned when you're
13:08
over here at the two gates and the three
13:11
gates, which is Delta, it's closer
13:14
to just walk than it is to wait for the
13:16
shuttle to go over to the ride share.
13:18
Like I walked out of there and all I got
13:19
to do is go that direction from two to
13:23
one and into the taxi area. Way quicker
13:27
than waiting for the shuttle.
14:01
I'm here really often.
14:01
Certain airports I'm always at. Atlanta,
14:04
MCO, LAX.
14:07
Those are probably the top three that
14:09
I've super familiar with. And then mix
14:12
in a bunch of other ones. Let's say that
14:15
that would be the the three that I've
14:19
been to the most.
14:25
If I was making a list, which I'm not, a
14:25
couple options. You can order a lift, an
14:27
Uber, or you can take a taxi. This is
14:30
taxi row.
14:32
The good thing about taxis,
14:34
you don't have to wait at all. You just
14:36
go to the front of the line,
14:39
get in the taxi, take you where you got
14:41
to go. But they are a little bit pricier
14:44
than the other two, but not by much. I
14:46
think I'm going to take an Uber.
14:50
I'm always amazed by how many stickers
14:52
there are on all these. Oh, these are
14:55
concrete. There's concrete inside these
14:59
metal buckets.
15:01
Full concrete. This ain't going
15:03
anywhere.
15:05
Oh yeah, people have put stickers all
15:08
over this. I added a sticker somewhere
15:11
out here one time. I don't know, a year
15:13
ago, 6 months ago, 3 months ago, two
15:15
months ago. I've lost track of time.
15:19
I don't even remember where I put the
15:20
sticker. Here's my shadow. Now I'll
15:22
leave my shadow.
15:33
All the different zones. I'm over here
15:33
at 23A
15:35
trying to order one and they're waiting
15:38
for a
15:47
Yeah, the T Oh my gosh, that's the taxi
15:47
line. Look at the taxi line starts right
15:51
here where those other taxis now pulling
15:53
up in the line. Stretches all
15:57
the way that direction
16:01
and it ends up over there. Again,
16:04
taxi would you have to wait not to order
16:07
a taxi there just already.
16:15
And down to Anaheim where I'm going to
16:15
be staying tonight.
16:18
Staying off of just off of Harbor.
16:21
Familiar spot for me, I know.
16:27
An hour and 15 minutes at this time of
16:28
day.
16:29
Nice cozy cozy ride for an hour and 15
16:31
minutes on the on the freeways. All
16:34
right, my ride will be here in 4
16:36
minutes.
16:44
I place another momento
16:44
right there
16:53
amongst all the other stickers. Stickers
16:53
everywhere out here. Look at Frankie.
17:09
place mine over next to 23B,
17:09
which is right next to 23A, right on the
17:12
back side of the sign. 23B at LAX. If
17:16
all goes well, I'll be home by the 24th
17:18
or 25th of this month. Maybe even a day
17:20
or two before that. But if I'm home by
17:21
the 24th, that'll give me four complete
17:24
weeks home before I have plans to leave
17:26
again, which would be amazing. I can be
17:29
home for four straight weeks. That's the
17:32
first time that might be the first time
17:33
in over a year and a half I've been home
17:34
that long. Made it over to Harbor now. I
17:37
am now in Anaheim,
17:39
quarter of Harbor and Disney. And
17:42
there's a pizza press over there right
17:45
over at the Anaheim Hotel. And I'm going
17:47
to get myself a a pizza pie.
17:51
right over there. Also, check it out.
17:53
You got the Orange County pigeons flying
17:56
through the or parrots. Not pigeons.
17:58
That's what I'm going to say. Parrots.
18:00
Parrots. Pigeons. They're both Yo,
18:02
there's some more right there. The
18:04
parrots as they come.
18:07
>> Well, you know, maybe those aren't the
18:09
parrots. They're birds. They're not
18:11
making the typical squawking of the
18:14
Orange County parrots. This is the Walk
18:16
of Fame that they call it. You got the
18:20
owner of owners of the Anaheim Ducks
18:22
right there. And then you keep
18:24
continuing on over here. You got the
18:28
founders of Carl Jr., Carl Carer, there.
18:31
And of course, a man who needs no
18:33
introduction right here on his property
18:35
for Walt's original Magic Kingdom. Right
18:38
on the other side of that tree is the
18:39
former Hollywood Tower, now Guardians of
18:41
the Galaxy. The Walt Disney himself
18:44
right here, the man on harbor. Yeah,
18:48
look at the Hitchcock
18:50
would be proud. Just a continual flow
18:56
birds here going across. Again, don't
19:00
think those are the parrots like I was
19:01
thinking they were like those are crows
19:05
perhaps. I mean, it's just like an
19:07
influx are all just
19:10
running parallel to Harbor Boulevard.
19:31
over at the pizza press.
19:31
I don't know what it is. There's one of
19:32
these in Celebration. Well, just outside
19:34
Celebration on Highway 192. I hardly
19:36
ever I think I've only eaten at it maybe
19:38
once or twice, but whenever I'm in
19:40
Anaheim, this is a pretty consistent
19:42
spot. that I walk over into the Pizza
19:46
Crest on Harbor.
19:49
It's weird how certain places will
19:52
they'll kind of excite your taste buds
19:54
even though the same place,
19:57
you know, have spots open in other areas
20:01
that you just I don't know. It's weird
20:02
how it's weird how your mind and taste
20:04
buds work. Somebody get some pizza. Look
20:07
at that over there. That's not a bird,
20:08
but it is a crane. Even though a crane
20:10
is a type of a bird that's over I think
20:12
in Avengers Campus. So before I went in
20:14
I was watching the I think it was the
20:16
11th inning. It was in it was after the
20:19
ninth inning. I think they I think it
20:20
was in the 11th inning for two innings
20:22
it was tied up with the Rays and Blue
20:24
Jays. I was thinking that they would
20:26
walk it off. They had a perfect
20:27
opportunity to walk it off the Rays dead
20:29
to win against the Blue Jays and they uh
20:31
they kind of crapped the bed again the
20:33
Rays dead. So again, this is not the
20:35
Rays year and the wild card hopes have
20:38
pretty much slipped into oblivion at
20:40
this point. I was thinking maybe if
20:42
they, you know, swept the Blue Jays,
20:45
but yeah, I I tortured myself a little
20:47
bit by
20:49
by thinking that
20:52
they're going to make things happen. But
20:53
this this is not the year. Had had high
20:56
hopes as the season began, but what can
21:00
you do?
21:01
I think there's only a dozen or so games
21:03
left in the
21:06
in the year regular season games and I
21:09
think I've gone to my last raise game
21:11
this year.
21:13
Just thinking maybe if they made it to
21:15
the but it's a lot of freaking birds.
21:16
It's a lot of freaking birds.
21:24
All right, I'm going to get some pizza.
21:24
Dang. I had some hopes that they were
21:25
going to pull that one through tonight,
21:26
but they didn't. As always, very
21:28
enjoyable.
21:30
There was like a little pizza press,
21:32
little pepperoni, ham, mushrooms,
21:36
assortment of other things
21:39
loaded up.
21:42
Really good. Now walking back to Harbor.
21:45
Go over to my hotel. Staying somewhere
21:47
I've never stayed before, which is kind
21:49
of nice.
21:55
I'm a little probably a little more
21:55
bummed out about the race than I should
21:58
be. You focus on a team for entire
22:02
season, spring training,
22:05
you know, all the games of that and then
22:07
162 games in the regular season. I think
22:09
there's maybe 12 left. They've already
22:10
played like 150
22:12
and they're pretty much eliminated.
22:15
Season's not over, but yeah, they're
22:18
pretty much eliminated. It's just uh too
22:20
far gone at this point. The one silver
22:22
lining is I know won't be going
22:25
anywhere, needing to go anywhere in
22:26
October because that was the one
22:29
kind of astric of me not traveling
22:33
in October.
22:38
Well, I am going somewhere at the very
22:38
end of October. Very, very end towards
22:40
Halloween of October.
22:43
Last week, well, last couple days of
22:45
October.
22:47
But when I finally get home, I'm
22:48
thinking I'll probably be home by the
22:49
23rd or 24th, maybe the 25th, somewhere
22:52
in that little time frame.
23:01
And if that's the case, it means they'll
23:02
be home for for a solid four weeks,
23:05
which is really nice.
23:08
And because the Rays will not be in the
23:09
postseason, I will not be going to any
23:12
any games,
23:14
but if they were obviously in the
23:15
postseason, wherever they would play, I
23:16
would go to the away games and the home
23:18
games and all that. Nonetheless, so that
23:20
kind of clears up my October,
23:26
which would be kind of nice. Like once
23:26
the season's over, you know, in a couple
23:28
weeks, I can take a break from, you
23:31
know, always checking scores, watching
23:33
games, spending the time listening to
23:35
the games, watching the games, etc. Kind
23:38
of have a nice little break. I am in
23:40
Anaheim now.
23:42
I'm going to go to my hotel,
23:45
get some shutye, rest a little bit, and
23:47
I'll see you in the next video. Thanks
23:48
for watching.
23:50
The vlog is over.
