peaceful moment where there's really not

1:29

2:10
a
2:11
surfer going by another whale tail up
2:20
there yeah just a very beautiful little
2:20
front front entrance section the
2:23
check-in desk is over here where I
2:25
checked in last evening again it is very
2:28
mellow because it is extremely early and
2:31
not a lot of people are out and about
2:33
yet nothing's really open but I always
2:35
like these pre-dawn opportunities to
2:38
walk around there's a check-in desk
2:39
right there it's really
2:41
incredible the work that went into this
2:43
place of course Joe roie who also had
2:45
his hand in Animal
2:46
Kingdom he also put a lot of into this
2:49
he was the one that really kind of took
2:52
that opportunity and ran with it him and
2:54
his team and other
2:56
imagineers so you'll see a lot of Joe
2:58
roadie nods and Easter eggs well not
3:02
Easter eggs so much but
3:03
just you know pieces of his
3:06
work on property which I'll show while
3:09
I'm
3:24
stay you hear the faint sounds of
3:24
aircraft flying over the flight path
3:27
kind of goes right oh not directly over
3:30
this Resort but pretty close in fact
3:32
when we flew in last
3:34
night off in the distance you could kind
3:36
of see it and then we went right over it
3:38
and it was below the plane I wasn't able
3:39
to to see it but you see planes
3:42
occasionally going by I'll get in a
3:45
view this wonderful
3:55
place so like getting up early and
3:55
walking around because it's quiet and
3:57
there's not a lot of people out you can
4:00
kind of get some clear views of the
4:02
hallways and things obviously Christmas
4:05
trees are going to be everywhere at
4:06
Christmas decorations I'm hoping there's
4:08
going to be a overload of that while
4:10
we're here on this
4:24
outside you know in a lot of ways kind
4:24
of reminds me of Barrow Alaska and the
4:27
whale tusks
4:34
when I was there
4:34
recently WEA conditions
4:37
slightly a little better and more
4:39
tolerable here
4:46
though the room we got is a beach view
4:46
room which is up there general
4:53
area I I say I already see the sun
4:53
starting to slightly come up ah yes the
4:56
Lazy River I'll be partaking of that a
4:58
little later
5:00
the water
5:02
slide the hot tubs and the pools my
5:05
favorite thing here out of all the water
5:08
activities is a double-decker hot
5:11
tub love
5:14
it just sit there especially at night
5:16
when the sun
5:17
sets just watch the sun setting off in
5:20
the distance while you're sitting in
5:21
that hot tub I'll be doing that later
5:24
that'll be a lot of off camera stuff
5:25
hanging out with my family swimming
5:35
Etc this is such a good time to walk
5:35

9:33
