4:47
flying away and a happy
4:50
new okay got distracted for a very good
4:53
reason but back to my wish see if I can
4:57
refind it where I placed it oh yeah it's
5:00
right here there it is signed Adam the
5:05
woo that's
5:08
me the Lunar New Year is celebrated on a
5:10
different date each year according to
5:12
the movements of the Sun and the Moon
5:14
celebrations occur over three days as
5:16
people pay homage to their ancestors
5:35
starting to get a hanker in for another
5:36
treat round two of some food is about to
5:40
about to
5:46
happen there it goes oh yeah nice shot
5:46
with the coaster going over
5:49
top and once again there goes another
5:52
round heading now over to the annual
5:54
passholder Corner that was given this
5:56
oversized button check that out pretty
5:59
nice and this year the AP section is
6:01
located right here on the water
6:04
beautiful even had a special little
6:06
photo area you might think that that
6:08
something like this is just a one take
6:09
option but there's a behind the scenes
6:11
process here I am just totally totally
6:14
working the Working The Angles in every
6:17
possible way to get that precise perfect
6:19
photo oh dang with all that excitement I
6:22
forgot to get the second treat I better
6:24
get on that better get on that now
6:25
something from this Noodle Company Works
6:27
cuz I I definitely enjoy longevity I'm
6:30
thinking vegetable egg roll and chilled
6:33
Sesame garlic noodles it has been
6:35
lathered with cilantro cashew sauce and
6:37
toasted peanuts I think after looking at
6:39
it I'm going to need a fork obviously
6:41
not for the egg
6:48
R oh man which is really really good and
6:48
while a fork was a good option
6:50
Chopsticks would have made more sense
6:53
but what can you
6:55
do I'm thinking now it's time for the
6:58
lucky Lantern
7:01
yeah doing it going to go with both the
7:04
stir fried vegetables and the Mandarin
7:06
orange green tea tart when it comes to
7:09
the Mickey shaped tart I was told this
7:11
is the second to last one for the
7:14
afternoon so I got pretty lucky with
7:16
that one they're very popular maybe it's
7:19
because they include this decorative
7:20
plate along with purchase but how does
7:23
it taste is probably what you're
7:24
wondering same that's what I'm thinking
7:26
too full of so much creamy goodness I
7:29
can't even comprehend it one of the ways
7:31
you can eat it is just pick it apart
7:33
little by little Lots going on with this
7:35
dish everything from water chest nuts to
7:38
some crunchy Chow M hadn't planned on
7:40
eating this much today it's just dang
7:42
lanyards fault dang you lanyard one than
7:45
for sure though everything I've eaten so
7:47
far has been delicious I only got two
7:51
tabs left on my sip and saver pass I
7:52
think I'm going to go with beverages
7:53
because I'm pretty full at the moment so
7:56
I think I'm going to go with drinks
7:58
change of plans that was before before I
7:59
saw the prosperity bow and
8:02
buns barbecue pork with Pickles red
8:05
onions and jalapeno after that I'm
8:07
definitely definitely going to need a
8:08
drink pretty dang good though but not
8:10
only a jalapeno flavoring but also some
8:12
a healthy dose of onions plastered on
8:15
there here goes nothing or should I say
8:17
here goes
8:24
something oh it's not as hot not as
8:24
spicy as I thought it was going to be
8:26
it's good had no idea what to expect
8:29
with this but not disappointed as stated
8:32
need something to Wet My Whistle after
8:34
this last
8:41
bite definitely going to use up my last
8:41
tab on a Vietnamese ice coffee cold and
8:44
warm liquid cold at the top and then
8:46
warm at the bottom you shake it it's not
8:48
going to fall out because they they
8:50
place this plastic cover on top as scary
8:52
as that is but you give it a good
8:55
Shake next up is this massive straw just
8:59
jab it right in there like so and that
9:01
should according to plan do the trick as
9:03
always with every event done right all
9:07
the theming on point throughout this
9:10
entire section of the
9:19
park going on the swing sounds like a
9:19
fun idea but then I remembered how much
9:22
I've consumed
9:23
foodwise I think I'm going to sit this
9:25
one out it's probably not the not the
9:28
smartest option there goes the flying
9:33
zers directly over my head even the
9:36
regular everyday food carts have been
9:37
overlaid with the happy Lunar New Year
9:40
theming most definitely a fun time but
9:42
gosh I ate a little bit too
9:54
much ladies and gentlemen we are
9:54
approaching our one and Stu may do ask
9:57
that you please remain seated with the
9:59
door closed till the tra comes to a full
10:01
and complete stop and I have indicated
10:03
that it is safe for you to exit to the
10:05
driver's right hand side you'll notice I
10:08
am wearing four different items right
10:10
here along the pocket line that is to
10:14
represent the buttons that I was given
10:16
at the four different food booths where
10:18
I got the six items that I
10:21
consumed and they give you these as
10:24
