Welcome everyone. Adam the Woo here,
0:10
wearing an appropriate t-shirt. All
0:13
Hallow's Eve is only 4 days by my
0:17
calculations from right now. Still in
0:21
SoCal. Going to pop in Walt's original
0:23
Magic Kingdom. Meet up with a couple
0:24
friends. Having Disneyland possible DCA
0:28
day. Got dropped off here at the Uber
0:31
ride share drop off. Got out of the car.
0:34
My sunglasses fell on the ground.
0:36
Shattered. Could not fix them. So the
0:38
one the sunglasses I've been using for
0:40
the past year or so. I think I bought
0:42
them for like 10 bucks. Have been erased
0:45
from existence. So at some point,
0:47
however, don't need them today cuz it's
0:49
overcast. It feels great out here. Let's
0:52
have a Disneyland day. Join me, shall
0:55
you? That's the weather right at 11:00
0:57
a.m.
0:59
68° 68°. It's going to get up to 75 76 a
1:04
little bit later. The peak of the
1:06
heatness. I can handle that. I can
1:08
handle 76°. That is nice. Got space
1:12
mountain off in the distance. And I have
1:14
never noticed
1:23
those patunias in front of this little
1:23
bus drop off area before. Oh, through
1:27
through the little buses there, there
1:29
goes the Disneyland mono. Judging by the
1:32
amount of people that are pouring in
1:34
here, even at 11:06 a.m., it is going to
1:37
be a busy day. Really hard to believe
1:40
that Halloween season is about to come
1:43
to an end. Really
1:45
hard to believe how quick and how fast
1:48
time goes.
1:56
The older you get, the faster it goes.
1:56
That's for sure. I like this Donald
1:57
right here. Donald, Mickey, Pluto.
2:02
So cool. The pumpkins of Disneyland.
2:12
And not just Halloween that is being
2:12
celebrated. Also celebrating the 70th
2:15
anniversary of this wonderful place
2:18
again. Couple five minutes five six
2:20
minutes five or 6 minutes after 11:00
2:22
a.m. they celebrate happy campaign. And
2:26
Mickey has his Halloween costume right
2:28
there. Topiary Mickey. He's got like a
2:30
Zoro mask on. Ah, I love this place so
2:33
much.
2:36
I love it even more where the weather's
2:37
nice like this. No sun out, overcast,
2:41
>> not scorchingly hot.
2:43
>> Here I leave today and enter the world
2:44
of yesterday, tomorrow.
2:47
And less we not forget. Fantasy.
2:56
>> Oh yeah. So slightly busy. I don't know
2:56
how many rides I'm going to get outside,
2:57
but slightly busy. Got the main street
2:59
vehicles rolling through. I can hear
3:01
Dapper dancing in their Halloween
3:03
jingles.
3:04
>> [music]
3:18
>> HEY, BILL. THAT SONG REMINDS me of a
3:18
joke.
3:19
>> It does.
3:20
>> IT SURE DOES. WHY do mummies have a hard
3:22
time keeping friends?
3:23
>> I don't know, Chris. Why do mummies have
3:25
a hard time keeping friends?
3:27
>> Because they're too wrapped up in
3:28
themselves.
3:31
>> Well, that is a petrified pun, folks.
3:33
You mean putrified?
3:34
>> A little stinker.
3:36
>> Well, you know who else is.
3:38
>> And with Halloween almost over, of
3:40
course, Christmas is here. And they have
3:42
the snow on top of the castle down
3:45
there. Just the switch over will be very
3:49
quick, very brisk, very, very fast.
3:52
Look at this. This is so cool.
4:06
Got the omni bus. Got the main street
4:06
vehicles. Got the horsedrawn carriage
4:10
partner statue. All right. Over in line
4:12
for Matterhorn. Probably going to be
4:14
about a 40minute wait. Pretty long line
4:16
for Matterhorn. Ah, yes. Holiday
4:18
Halloween.
4:19
>> Yeah, you got to go through that crowd.
4:22
>> All right. Our bob sled is on its way
4:26
in. We are sitting in rows four, five,
4:28
and six, part number 19.
4:32
This is going to be a rough ride. Need a
4:33
chiropractor after this bad boy.
4:36
>> Probably take off this new hat.
5:10
a 40m minute wait right on the nose. 40
5:10
minutes.
5:23
>> That's crazy. That's crazy.
5:23
Yeah,
5:26
there he is.
5:38
Catch up to him.
5:38
We got this. Come on.
6:29
needs to be a little bumpier.
6:29
>> Yeah, it does.
6:40
Oh man,
6:40
fun.
6:46
>> Wow. That thing doesn't get any
6:46
smoother.
6:48
That was something.
6:50
>> You good?
6:51
>> You guys good?
6:52
>> I'm good.
6:54
>> You want to take the rough side or
6:56
>> No. One side's enough. One ride for a
6:58
day. It's all my back can handle.
7:02
>> All right. I think we're going to head
7:06
to the subs. I rarely do the subs, but
7:08
today
7:10
the other guys want to do the
7:11
submarines.
7:12
I'm going to do the subs.
7:19
Matter horny. Boy, that was I don't
7:19
know. As I get older, I think it gets
7:21
more rough as I get older. The older I
7:23
get, that thing
7:25
>> really.
7:32
>> Really is rough.
7:32
>> We going down underwater.
7:34
>> We're going underwater. Yeah.
7:36
>> Nice.
7:37
>> They used to have mermaids out here.
7:38
Mermaids used to be live mermaids used
7:40
to be on the rocks.
7:42
>> Really?
7:42
>> Back in the olden days.
7:44
>> Okay. That was like the same time frame
7:46
as they used to have real mountain
7:47
climbers on the Matter Horn. Scaffolding
7:49
up and down the Matter Horn.
7:51
>> Has this
7:51
>> there's been budget cuts since those
7:53
days.
7:54
>> Has this always been summer?
7:57
>> Pulling into the station. [screaming]
8:05
>> These guys convinced me to go on the
8:05
subs. It's a rare thing. It's a rare
8:08
thing.
8:08
>> Special day.
8:11
>> We got coffees. Well, two of us did.
8:13
>> Cheers.
8:15
Clink and drink.
8:16
>> Clink and drink.
8:17
>> Clink and drink. Pulling into
8:20
the station.
8:27
The Mariner 407. Oh, that's my zip code.
8:27
407.
8:33
No correlation for Florida being over
8:33
here in SoCal. But yeah, the 407.
8:36
Area code. Area code. If I say zip code,
8:39
area code. The caffeine hasn't kicked in
8:42
yet.
8:43
It's a code of some sort.
8:49
Now we are actually going to be going on
8:49
the seafair 507. So the 407 was the one
8:52
before it. We're going to be going on
8:54
the 507. Seafare 507. Going to be going
8:59
down below
9:00
under the lower decks.
9:03
So right the seafair 507. There's also
9:06
the Argonaut
9:08
right there.
9:15
Watch your head and step
9:15
all the way down.
9:16
>> Going down into the underbelly of the
9:20
subs.
9:22
Look at this.
9:25
Right. All the way to the end. Looks
9:26
like I'm going to be all the way at the
9:28
end right here.
9:31
Oh my gosh. I got to be
9:38
>> Looks like we got this whole thing to
9:38
ourselves. Just us. Oh no, there's more
9:41
people coming on.
9:44
>> A good spot here with everyone.
10:00
Shake it out a little bit. [music]
10:00
You're locking it up.
10:02
>> That's it. I don't know if they get the
10:04
air.
10:16
We're moving. We're moving, guys. We're
10:16
moving.
10:18
>> Backing up.
10:19
>> We're backing up.
10:33
>> Lights just turned off.
10:33
>> Okay, here we go.
10:34
>> Good night. Good night.
10:35
>> This is the cafe at all times.
10:44
Stand by to dive. Take it down.
10:44
>> Take it down. Take it down.
10:46
>> Dive. Dive. Dive. Dive. Going into the
10:51
ocean.
11:06
This is a popular spot for divers
11:06
searching for exotic fish.
11:20
>> Deep newly erupting deep water volcano.
11:20
>> Yeah, there's a diver right there. Well,
11:22
now it's kind of hard to see with the
11:24
bubbles. You got a diver
11:27
[music] tiki head over there. Can barely
11:29
see it, but there's like a tiki like
11:31
right there in the water. Everything
11:44
okay in here.
11:53
>> All right. I believe we're going to go
11:53
meet up
11:55
with some others or at least one other
11:58
up in the DVC lounge
12:01
over here in Tomorrowland as the
12:02
Montreal goes by.
12:06
The Matter Horn off in the distance.
12:08
Spin around Tomorrowland terrace. DVC
12:11
lounge
12:13
right over there. Oh, there it is. The
12:16
DVC stand. Star View Station. I'm
12:18
chowing down on some popcorn I got with
12:20
the 70th logo on it.
12:22
with Mickey here. We're going to be
12:24
going up into Star View Station. I
12:25
always call it just the DVC lounge, but
12:27
technically called the DVC Star View
12:29
Station member lounge. Pretty good
12:31
popcorn. Some of the best popcorn is at
12:32
Disneyland. Yeah, the lounge looks
12:34
pretty mellow today. Very, very nice.
12:36
This is the inside of the DVC lounge.
12:38
And I love this. I love the Progress
12:40
City mural right here. This is like my
12:41
favorite mural in here. And now outside
12:44
on the terrace, or at least the balcony,
12:47
the lai if you want to call it. Nice
12:49
little view of the Matter Horn that we
12:51
just went on and Montreal that went by
12:54
and of course submarine voyage now
12:56
Finding Nemo. Yeah, I love the view of
12:58
the Matter Horn right here. Look at that
13:00
thing. All right, Rick has arrived. What
13:02
do you think of my hat?
13:03
>> It's the best hat.
13:04
>> You like that? [laughter]
13:05
>> I forgot I was wearing it and you came
13:06
down and started laughing.
13:07
>> I said it was a proper princess hat.
13:09
>> There you go. Perfect. [music]
13:25
right over there. He's saying come on in
13:25
to pirates
13:28
that wait.
13:46
>> Oh yeah, I can see that. So
13:46
>> yeah,
13:47
>> there's Jack and Sally
13:49
>> making their way through
13:52
Sally.
14:00
This must be where he lives right here.
14:00
The private entrance.
14:10
All the characters rolling through here
14:10
in front of pirates.
14:12
He's going to hop in line.
14:14
>> Maybe he's going to get in line.
14:16
>> Yeah.
14:16
>> Go see himself.
14:23
Captain Jack.
14:23
>> Hello, Jack.
14:24
>> Hello.
14:25
>> Good to see you. Good
14:26
>> to see you.
14:27
>> I should wear your hat.
14:29
>> You should wear the hat.
14:30
>> Yeah,
14:32
>> this probably would be more appropriate
14:34
for you than I think you're prettier
14:36
than I am. Yes. You're welcome. Have a
14:38
good day. Thank you. I'll send I'll gave
14:40
you one for Christmas.
14:42
>> Thank you. It'll
14:42

14:44
>> Let's make it a 26. I'll copy.
14:46
>> All right. I will. Thank you. Thank you,
14:48
Jack. All right. We just jumped in line
14:51
four pirates about a 40minute wait
14:54
>> 30 minute wait or something this morning
14:56
up here on the top like level and then
14:58
going to circle down and around.
15:02
>> But yours is good.
15:07
All right. This is kind of neat cuz
15:07
we're going around here to the back of
15:08
the queue over at Pirates. And if you
15:12
kind of look over here next to where
15:14
these trash cans are, there are a couple
15:15
doors here and there's another door over
15:18
here. And the legend says if you knock
15:20
on this door, a ghost will not follow
15:23
you home, but a ghost will knock back.
15:40
>> Fail.
15:40
>> No,
15:40
>> the ghosts do not. No ghost. Did it Did
15:44
it Did it Nope. One more time. All
15:46
right. Here we go.
15:53
No killings.
15:53
>> Fail. The ghosts are sleeping. All
15:55
right, we're going on. Are we going on?
15:58
>> Back of the boat here. Back of the boat.
16:00
Rows five and six. Back of the boat.
16:03
Back of the boat.
16:05
>> We rode the We in Florida as pirates.
16:07
Now we're just ourselves.
16:08
>> I know. That was awesome.
16:09
>> All right, pull your lap bars down,
16:10
guys. Pull your lap bars down.
16:12
>> That's too tight.
16:14
>> Too snug. Can you uh can you un loosen
16:17
the lap bar a little bit?
16:20
>> Here we go.
16:23
>> It's like deja vu from our Mickey's
16:24
Halloween party.
16:25
>> Oh, it is. It is.
16:26
>> Except I'm not quite as hot cuz I'm not
16:28
wearing long hair and a huge beard. I
16:31
don't have my mustache on.
16:34
We're incognito now.
16:36
>> Incognito lines.
16:38
>> Jack Sparrow knew us outside.
16:40
>> Did you ever get anyone to draw a bread
16:42
roll for you?
16:42
>> Oh, like the Shay Carl guys?
16:44
>> Yeah. Back in the day, if you put your
16:45
hands on the girl bread roll,
16:47
>> there was a YouTuber named Shay Carl, a
16:49
daily vlogger, started all that.
16:51
>> This is like 2004,
16:53
I think.
16:54
>> He's the one that started it.
16:56
>> Sometimes if you wave the way back.
16:58
>> I don't think anybody
16:59
>> That's old school. That's old school
17:01
YouTube term. YouTubers.
17:12
>> Got a little little moist there. Got a
17:12
little moist.
17:13
>> All right. off of Pirates. Now we're
17:14
going over to Mansion. An hour wait, so
17:16
it get a little busy. I figure as the
17:18
night goes on, it's going to get even
17:19
busier. In fact, it's so busy that I've
17:21
never been in this particular section of
17:23
the new queue. A little garden, atrium,
17:26
greenhouse right here. There's a lot of
17:28
plants under here.
17:35
This little section of the new queue.
17:35
Yeah, check it out. There are some Venus
17:36
fly traps there. Look at that right
17:39
there.
17:44
That's cool.
17:44
>> I don't know if those are real or if
17:46
they're just fake Venus fly traps, but
17:49
there are some up there right there in
17:52
the line for Haunted Mansion.
17:56
Yeah, I definitely love the Haunted
17:58
Mansion overlay. Haunted Mansion
18:00
holiday. I think this is only maybe my
18:02
third time I have done it this year and
18:04
probably my last time doing it for the
18:07
Halloween/
18:09
Christmas holiday season, but I really
18:11
like it. I kind of wish back when I used
18:13
to live out here and I used to come here
18:14
all the time. Back then I used to really
18:16
wish that you could go on regular
18:20
mansion back when it was, you know, the
18:22
regular mansion and not have the
18:23
overlay. That way on Halloween night or
18:25
Halloween season, you could ride the
18:27
original scary Haunted Mansion. That was
18:30
intended to be the original. You can't
18:32
do that on the on the West Coast. You
18:35
can't do it on the East Coast, though.
18:36
You can do it in Florida. You can do the
18:39
overlife or you can do the regular
18:40
version. And I have multiple times on
18:43
Halloween Day gone on Haunted Mansion,
18:46
which is pretty cool on on hall on
18:48
Halloween day to ride ride the mansion.
18:50
Can't do it here, but it is always fun
18:52
to It is always fun to do the Haunted
18:54
Mansion holiday overlay. It's a good
18:57
time. Always good to see Jack and Sally
18:58
and the rest of OogieOogie and all that.
19:01
All right, I think we're going to go to
19:02
Plaza Chicken. We're going to head out
19:03
of New Orleans Square and go get some of
19:05
my favorite I think dare I say the best
19:07
theme park chicken place. Mrs. Knots is
19:10
good, but nothing beats Plaza Plaza in
19:13
for for chicken. Everybody else I'm with
19:15
agrees get some Plaza and chicken. So,
19:18
we're heading over there.
19:19
>> Oh. Oh, nobody else there.
19:35
look good, right?
19:35
>> It does look good.
19:38
Three-piece meal.
19:47
>> Thank you.
19:47
I went ahead and got the double mash,
19:51
a biscuit,
19:53
three pieces of chicken, and gravy.
19:56
Nice.
20:06
>> Kevin and I both decided we would get
20:06
the the pecan pie as well. We're all
20:10
getting the chicken dinner. Jim went
20:12
with the greens on his.
20:14
>> You got the double shot. Yeah, you got
20:16
to go with the double mash as it. You
20:18
didn't do it. Greens, I guess.
20:19
>> Green beans are good, though.
20:20
>> I'll take them.
20:22
>> Spicy greens. How spicy are they?
20:24
>> Oh, they are
20:25
>> spicy.
20:27
All right, heading over to Disney's
20:29
California Adventure now. Heading over
20:31
onto the former Hollywood Tower. Now,
20:34
Guardians of the Galaxy. All right, not
20:35
only is it Guardians, but right now
20:37
because it's October, it's Monsters
20:39
After Dark because it's a little later
20:41
in the evening. I don't think I've been
20:43
on Monsters After Dark. the overlay of
20:45
the Guardians drop in ride this year. So
20:48
glad we're doing it. All right, a little
20:49
time has passed. Probably a half hour.
20:51
It's about an hour wait time, but this
20:53
is going to be worth it because
20:55
Monsters After Dark.
20:58
This version is pretty dang good. Just
21:00
in time for Halloween. Almost
21:04
>> almost inside. Not quite inside, but
21:06
almost inside. Also tough to see, but
21:09
there is a hidden fig right there in
21:11
that middle box right there. Tough to
21:13
see it, but hidden figment right
21:19
>> Look at that thing case there.
21:31
>> Heading to the gantry lift
21:31
over there and see what happens.
21:35
>> The gantry lift.
21:53
>> Now, in the queue here for Guardians is
21:53
the old animatronic from
21:56
Matterhorn that we rode earlier, Harold
21:59
the Yeti. They replaced him with the
22:01
scarier Harold, which I refer to as
22:04
Scarald the Yeti. And here is one of the
22:07
older versions of the Yeti from the
22:09
Matterhorn. Never really understood why
22:12
it was in the Guardians attraction, but
22:14
there he is right there. Right up there.
22:17
See him?
22:25
>> All right, it's happening. We are
22:26
row number one.
22:26
>> We're not going to look at Twilight.
22:38
All right, did it. Monsters After Dark
22:38
accomplished. I didn't film on it, but
22:40
man, that was a riveting, exciting ride.
22:42
And that's going to do it for today from
22:44
Disneyland and DCA. We didn't really
22:46
have a major game plan going into it,
22:48
but had some fun. Did a little park
22:51
hopping.
22:53
Rode some rides, had some dinner, some
22:56
attractions, had some experiences. Hit
22:58
the lounge.
23:05
>> A little pop in.
23:05
My last time doing the Halloween stuff
23:09
>> at Disneyland.
23:10
Actually popped into World of Disney at
23:12
Disney Villa or Disney Springs. Not
23:14
Disney Springs, but Downtown Disney on
23:16
the way out. They were playing Christmas
23:18
music already. 4 days 4 days before
23:22
Halloween. The Halloween stuff had been
23:24
moved over to another area in the main
23:27
section. It's Christmas stuff. Christmas
23:30
stuff is out. 4 days for Halloween.
23:34
Nonetheless, good time. Holiday season
23:37
in full effect.
23:39

23:40

23:44
is over.
