0:02 today's adventure brings me to downtown
0:02 celebration here on Market Street the
0:04 clock up there is correct it is 3:05
0:08 p.m. the Christmas tree will be
0:10 illuminated for the first time this
0:13 holiday season in less than 2 hours t-
0:16 minus 2 hours at 5:00 p.m. they're going
0:19 to be celebrating the holiday season
0:22 possibly doing some sort of opening
0:23 ceremony right here they are laying down
0:26 the snow right here along the ground in
0:29 fact I'm getting a little behind the
0:30 scenes if you will as they are pumping
0:33 it out right here amongst the bricks
0:35 people walking their dogs looking in
0:37 confusion especially people from up
0:39 North who are probably thinking oh I
0:41 guess it doesn't snow here I mean they
0:43 probably know that they probably
0:44 snowbirds are down here for that reason
0:46 so it doesn't snow but yeah doesn't snow
0:48 in Florida so the snow will be omitting
0:51 itself from these little boxes later
0:54 tonight this is the first night of the
0:56 snope as well and they are layering the
0:59 streets
1:00 I got to do the intro welcome everyone
1:03 out of the woo here wearing an
1:06 appropriate t-shirt got my Santa cap on
1:09 I don't drink alcohol but I'm assuming
1:11 he is drinking a a root beer or
1:13 something like that maybe maybe in there
1:15 maybe that is a cold caffeinated
1:17 beverage I don't know what Santa drinks
1:19 I don't I don't Cy into Santa's personal
1:21 life and what kind of beverages he has
1:23 nonetheless Christmas begins tonight
1:26 here in Celebration Florida join me
1:29 shall you my glasses are crooked and it
1:31 looks as if endless ice which opens at
1:33 400 p.m. so it's 3:04 right now not only
1:36 according to that clock but also
1:38 according to the digital clock right
1:40 here from 400 p.m. to 10 p.m. $15 per
1:42 half hour skate at your own risk this is
1:45 not ice this is just plastic I'll show
1:47 it a little bit later when this is a
1:49 real beehive of activity but this will
1:51 be the first night for the fake the faux
1:53 ice skating and the train rides Pro
1:57 possibly the horse carriages the lights
2:00 the snope and there's even some other
2:03 little added bonuses they might pepper
2:05 in as well it's the first night and I'm
2:07 here for it cuz I live here now in past
2:09 years they would have not only porta
2:11 potties over here no P I'm not seeing
2:13 any porta potties which is kind of
2:14 unusual because there's going to be a
2:15 ton of people down here and there's not
2:17 a lot of businesses down here that have
2:19 resturants that's that's neither here
2:20 nor there but also through here is where
2:22 they line up the train and then usually
2:24 over here is where they have the
2:27 horsedrawn hey hay ride what do you call
2:29 it hay ride draw a blank on that but
2:31 that's usually parked here the train I
2:33 think they got near Lake Reinhard I
2:35 think theyve kind of shifted things
2:36 around this year I'll see if I can find
2:38 some Porta bodies too not that I need to
2:39 go but just to show where they are it is
2:42 November 25th as the recording was I
2:44 think I forgot to mention that in there
2:46 but as a recording of this it is
2:48 November 25th which is a Saturday 2023
2:52 this goes through New Year this a whole
2:54 event but tonight like I said kicks off
2:56 the falling snow 67 8 and 9:00 p.m. tree
2:59 lighting ceremony is at 5: they're also
3:01 going to be in a couple weeks from doing
3:03 a holiday art walk and this is the 25th
3:05 anniversary of this event so that's kind
3:07 of
3:08 exciting they're just layering it on
3:11 almost like icing on a
3:13 cake that's how it's done right
3:16 there now I've seen this in years past
3:19 but never really got like a really good
3:21 view of how they do it I've kind of seen
3:22 them from a
3:24 distance and this will melt off very
3:26 very quickly I mean even though the sun
3:29 will be setting
3:30 soon okay yeah they just kind of they
3:32 have like a pattern to
3:34 it that's a lot of work to just for like
3:37 a couple hours of of entertainment on
3:40 the ground it's just basically a foam it
3:43 looks like a
3:45 foam snope layering
3:50 snope unless it was real icing then that
3:52 would make for a very highly Jolly
3:58 evening but it's not you see here just
4:02 like a it's like a snow yeah it's like a
4:06 just like a it's snow and I would
4:08 imagine they're going to bring it all
4:09 the way down to here probably going to
4:12 come all the way down to this point
4:15 right here just my guess oh you see the
4:17 train over there got some event staff
4:19 out there's the train all covered up
4:21 should I do a train ride later they got
4:23 the warning this entire Street part of a
4:25 toway Zone Vehicles left on this street
4:29 after the post closing time will be
4:30 towed at the owner's expense again the
4:34 horong carriage rides so here's where
4:36 you get your tickets and this is where
4:37 they're going to be lined up right here
4:39 instead of the other side of Market
4:41 Street you can always tell where cool
4:43 the gator is there's always a
4:44 Congregation of
4:45 people looking at
4:48 him he's right over there in the water I
4:52 think I'm going to go say the first the
4:54 let's say a holiday kickoff celebration
4:56 holiday kickoff to cool who's probably
4:59 going to stick around later to watch the
5:00 snope and the lighting of the tree
5:01 ceremony because I know cool personally
5:04 whispered something to me once he really
5:06 likes Christmas trees and lighting of
5:08 Christmas trees actually he didn't say
5:10 that but in my mind I think cool really
5:13 like really likes Christmas trees and
5:14 lighting of Christmas trees all right
5:16 the other day I was mentioning how they
5:17 had misspelled this back or when the
5:19 celebration was built or at least the
5:20 fountain was built they spelled it
5:22 walled Disney World w d and I thought it
5:26 was wad Disney World w a but really they
5:29 just spelled the T but it was wall w a l
5:32 d and I also did not realize that so
5:35 people started chiming in that they
5:36 misspelled Captiva Island over here and
5:39 they put an extra in Captiva Island so
5:41 they misspelled two things on the
5:43 fountain when the first of the fountain
5:45 originally had open and so Captiva
5:48 Island according to what people were
5:49 kind of telling me after I mentioned it
5:51 the last time also needed to to be refix
5:54 o that is like effervescently flowing up
5:56 right there I'm not sure how they
5:58 spelled the Captiva oh look at
6:10 that happy holidays yeah that is an
6:10 arduous task right
6:12 there out there putting that out there
6:14 even over here they have some little
6:17 snowflakes have been painted on the side

11:34 little bit later looks like someone has
11:36 got themselves a new Christmas tree
11:37 taking it home happy holidays Merry
11:41 Christmas how are you feeling this
11:44 evening are you ready to get the holiday
11:46 spirit in line I know you are of course
11:49 Santa will be here at about 5:45 we've
11:51 already tracked him and he is on his way
11:54 he will light the Christmas tree right
11:55 around 5:45 and then the very first
11:58 snowfall train will be making its
12:00 arrival in just a few minutes all right
12:02 the horong carriages have arrived so
12:03 evidently the tree light even though it
12:05 said five isn't until 545 cuz got to
12:08 wait for Santa to light at the Christmas
12:09 tree this is like something out of like
12:11 a fairy tale right here all right the
12:12 first round's pulling into the station
12:14 over here now I'm going over the
12:16 celebration hotel we got still wait for
12:18 Santa yeah when they originally said
12:20 five on the Fly I was like it's not
12:21 going to be dark enough to do that but
12:23 then that was was just when the guy came
12:24 out and announced that at 5 all the
12:26 festivities kick off the train the horse
12:28 drun carriages the ice skating and all
12:30 that the tree lighting is technically at
12:32 545 it was like the inside of the
12:34 celebration Hotel they have a Christmas
12:36 tree all decorated in here as well
12:40 Wonder of these days I'm going to stay
12:41 here and do like a room review I can't
12:42 believe I never have even these stanions
12:44 look very very holidayish here I don't
12:46 think that's intentional but and also
12:48 this is spinning around sometimes a
12:50 celebration Hotel Marquee used to be
12:52 called the
12:54 celebration Bohemian celebra that's what
12:56 it was a Bohemian celebration hotel but
12:58 now there's a new owner about a year ago
13:00 different owner took over so they
13:01 dropped the secondary word from the
13:03 other side but sometimes this spins
13:05 around sometimes it
13:07 doesn't when the holidays are in effect
13:09 I guess it does look holiday lights over
13:11 here too all right it's just about time
13:14 I am ready for some snow o heads up car
13:17 got a hor drawn carriage rolling through
13:19 it I think this might be the first H
13:21 drawn carriage of the holiday season
13:23 rolling through here right past the
13:26 celebration hotel now I did take one of
13:29 these for the Fall
13:31 Festival which I guess you can designate
13:33 during Halloween
13:35 time you know it would be interesting if
13:37 they tried to park this over here in
13:39 valet horses deserve valet
13:47 right also before when I've done that
13:47 they never go this route so that's
13:48 something new I like the icicles up in
13:51 the tree
13:53 here something else up in the tree I'm
13:56 not sure what that is it looks like I
13:58 don't know what that
14:00 is the bicyclist scooterist going by got
14:04 the horong carriage coming by
14:07 here and midnight turns into a pumpkin
14:10 there goes another one going by that
14:11 horse just let out quite the little
14:13 quite the horse noise the N noise I
14:16 missed it all right pot back over to get
14:18 myself a mocktail the Apple Delight

16:18 stretches all the way outside even
16:21 inside I've been in there a few times
16:23 has a line that double backs a couple
16:25 times so that's probably a good size
16:27 weight to get a couple scoops of ice
16:29 cream if you so choose yeah it's busy in
16:32 there that's also one of the few public
16:35 restrooms down here so maybe that's

20:29 there is Highway 192 is about a mile
20:31 that way it's pretty backed up but
20:34 usually this church over here is really
20:37 well lit up but right now maybe maybe
20:39 they're waiting for a certain time of
20:40 the night to light the church up or
20:41 maybe they're not doing it tonight but
20:43 the snoke's going to fall in 15 minutes
20:45 so I'm going to walk back over to Market
20:46 Street oh never mind I'm going to look
20:49 at the train as the train pulls by so
20:51 I'm looking at the routing of the train
20:54 as it comes by the truest bank right
20:56 here corner of Sycamore see the train
20:59 coming by it's going to have to cross
21:01 over all this
21:03 traffic maybe the Train's trying to find
21:05 a parking spot oh wait the conductor got
21:07 out of the train he's looking for
21:09 something in the
21:15 front the train break down look at the
21:15 line of cars behind the
21:22 train all those cars are going should we
21:22 pass the train is it appropriate to pass
21:25 a
21:26 train question questions they're asking
21:28 at the moment oh I think he's fixing the
21:30 engine oh no he's jumping back
21:33 in I wish I was on that train ride cuz
21:35 then I would know what's going
21:43 on little traffic jam oh here he goes oh
21:43 he's doing a UI he's doing a U-turn
21:45 where's he go he's going back to the
21:51 station that's
21:51 interesting okay train right
21:58 over wonder what happened or maybe
21:58 that's just the whole
22:00 route yeah it certainly is good to see
22:02 the tree all lit up on marry I've been
22:04 waiting for the last week them setting
22:05 it all up and now it's illuminated all
22:08 right a matter of minutes until the snow
22:11 starts to fall there is no Elbo Room on
22:14 Market Street right all right it is now
22:16 6:00 officially when they're supposed to
22:18 start doing the snow I wonder if the
22:21 flakes are going to be this size like
22:23 this size flake coming down Market
22:26 Street there that would be kind of neat
22:29 there are so many people here waiting
22:32 patiently for the first snope of
22:35 2023 in Central Florida here at
22:38 Celebration I could hear the
22:40 announcement kind
22:49 all
22:49 wind and on that very Night children's
22:53 wishes were granted now come join us on
22:57 Market
22:58 all right here
23:00 goes oh wow 25 years
23:05 of ready to get
23:07 engulfed in snow that guy's tipping one
23:10 back for some
23:11 snow there we
23:13 go there it is snooping yes snope
23:17 everywhere down Market Street one thing
23:19 I never noticed in past years and maybe
23:21 they didn't do it in past years when the
23:23 snope is engulfing Marcus Street of
23:25 Plenty all the boxes that the snope is
23:27 coming out out of is named after the
23:29 reindeers up stretching down both sides
23:32 of Market Street named completely after
23:34 the reindeers and this whole place is
23:35 being completely engulfed in snope to
23:38 the fullest extent of snooping they do
23:41 this they do this every hour starting at
23:43 6 78 I think in nine and they're going
23:45 to be doing this I believe only on the
23:47 weekends don't quote me on that though
23:48 but they're going to be doing this from
23:50 now up until New Year's Eve I think even
23:52 New Year's Eve they do a little snow
23:54 Fest cuz it doesn't snow in Central
23:56 Florida you know it only snows in like
23:58 the northern states and out of Florida
23:59 sometimes in the Panhandle but never in
24:00 Central Florida if it does it's like a
24:02 flurry and doesn't stick so it's good to
24:03 see some snoke here in celebration it's
24:06 the first night I was glad I was here
24:07 for it the first first V first vision of
24:10 Santa Claus that I've seen in
24:11 celebration and the first snooping of
24:13 the year now one of the trains broke
24:15 down but there's another train working
24:17 up rolling through pulling through here
24:21 pulling out of now there's only one
24:23 train a rolling the celebration Express
24:27 all the strollers and families out of
24:29 the way celebration Express pulling
24:32 through the other one has been retired
24:34 that's why it turned it did a urn cuz it
24:36 wasn't running I'm just assuming that I
24:38 don't know for sure oh my goodness the
24:39 line for Santa stretches way down there
24:44 I think Santa coming down Market Street
24:46 hyping himself up really got a lot of
24:48 people wanting to come over here and Wai
24:49 in the wait for the gingerbread house to
24:51 meet Santa got the Santa this way sign
24:55 thereit a line to meet
24:59 man
25:01 himself gingerbread house which I saw
25:03 them
25:15 her all right train oh you know what I
25:15 was wrong there are two trains this
25:16 train's coming in from the other way so
25:18 I guess that train didn't break down got
25:20 some carolers out over here oh they're
25:23 all dressed up look at
25:26 this
25:52 nice also across the way over there they
25:52 are starting to do the acrobats the
25:54 acrobats are performing and using
25:57 utilizing the RO FKS that were setting
25:58 up earlier and doing the the spins and
26:00 everything that I could definitely never
26:01 do I'm not athletic enough to do that
26:03 but they're doing it right here at the
26:04 base of Market Street next to Market
26:06 Square it was kind of cool to kind of
26:08 see it over by where the fountain where
26:09 I st intro and stuff is cu really they
26:11 doing the acrobats all right looks
26:14 like the lights are on now over at the
26:17 church and traffic has got even
26:20 worse so again if you're going to show
26:23 up here show up early maybe grab a bike
26:25 to eat at one of the restaurants
26:28 and and have a spot
26:30 or gosh I don't even know if you could
26:32 like ride share in and get dropped off
26:33 because there's like really probably no
26:35 parking down here at this
26:46 hour I mean it's hard to find parking on
26:46 just like a regular night with the
26:48 restaurants and this is like 10 times
26:51 the amount of
26:52 people yeah the lights are all on here
26:55 in front of the church now last time I
26:56 was over here was during the Fall
26:58 Festival when they had all the pumpkins
27:00 out and they had the pumpkin patch no
27:03 pumpkins right now but they have the
27:04 lights look like I think maybe within
27:06 the last day or two they finished
27:08 setting all the lights up you even see
27:10 some of the heavy machinery here the the
27:13 equipment put the lights on the side of
27:14 this this is beautiful church here
27:17 getting in
27:18 the Christmas holiday
27:45 again just look how many cars are
27:45 attempting to find parking down here I
27:46 don't think many of them probably will
27:49 accomplish that goal they're probably
27:50 have to park like by the other church
27:52 it's that way like a half a mile and
27:55 walk
27:56 it
27:58 cuz this place is
28:00 busy all right I think my evening in
28:02 downtown celebration is complete for the
28:06 holidays ho ho ho holidays are
28:08 officially kicked off happy holidays

28:13 the tree I saw the first snoke I saw the
