0:15 Tuesday
0:15 my first experience you have never been
0:18 here either there is white a
0:22 congregation
0:32 very good
0:49 the first thing I'm noticing is the
0:49 immense amount of beads up in the
0:51 foliage and the trees there
1:53 the parade floats are now starting to
1:56 starting to formulate a bit of Cruz by
2:39 just making our way over I'm really not
2:39 really stationed anywhere we're just out
2:40 roaming up and down
3:28 looks like Cody got him a little
3:28 souvenir
3:54 I have a good feeling about that I have
3:54 a good feeling I need something coconut
4:06 coconut
4:31 I even realize it has a face on it I do
4:31 believe that is Roger Rabbit on the
4:33 front of that flow rate and there's
4:35 Jessica right there Roger Rabbit float
4:55 Oh beverage refill there oh yeah snag
4:55 that one snag that one I had to reach
4:57 for it
5:05 got it Wow right there go it's a stogie
5:05 it's a big stone that's right come on
5:09 that's a bone right thing as Jimi
5:13 Hendrix
5:22 Oh your frisbees genius
5:36 Jensen's one is really handing out a lot
5:36 of stock
5:37 oh yeah teddy bear no the teddy bear up
5:40 there I've got it nailed it yeah there's
5:45 a here comes a Tiki version right here
5:47 Tiki Stein
5:50 Oh
5:55 Arabian Nights Arabian Nights coming
5:55 through
5:59 it's almost like a swarm around the
5:59 parade room and sometimes you get lucky
6:01 where they stop right here and hand a
6:03 bunch out at once now there are two big
6:06 parades in this section on this day and
6:09 they kind of culminate here one turns
6:11 off and one goes straight the second one
6:14 is yet to begin decided to stop into old
6:17 sait for a bite to eat
6:18 Cody opted for the po-boy with catfish
6:21 in the middle they're pretty delicious I
6:25 opted for first off the gumbo a little
6:29 side of gumbo and then a catfish platter
6:32 they called it with a lot of fries and
6:35 other items a little pricey for the
6:37 event which makes sense kind of like you
6:39 know they have to have to appeal to the
6:42 tourists that are here so a little
6:43 pricey and the portions were weren't too
6:45 incredibly big but pretty tasty
6:56 second is beginnings the key to the
6:56 policy called Rex there's bricks right
