The Passholder Life Of A Disney Adult - Florida Heat Wave / Pin Trading & Magic Kingdom With No Plan

0:03 Welcome everyone. Adam the Woo here as

0:03 the recording of this. It is Wednesday,

0:04 July 30th, 2025. I'm going to be

0:08 stepping out of my homestead here into

0:10 the heatwave that is happening across

0:13 Central Florida. Going to head over to

0:14 Walt Disney World property, maybe the

0:17 resorts, maybe the parks, do some pin

0:20 trading, try to stay cool, try to stay

0:23 out of the elements, but probably will

0:25 fail at that because it is a scorcher

0:28 right now in the summer of 2025.

0:32 Let's see what happens. I'm inviting you

0:33 to join me. Let's do some pen trading.

0:35 Join me, shall we? Into the corridor of

0:39 Goons, which is my little nerd room,

0:41 self-proclaimed nerd room here in my

0:43 house.

0:44 I added another corkboard which let me

0:47 create a little bit more room for my

0:48 pens, but I have a lot of duplicates.

0:52 These are the 15 I think there's 15 here

0:55 pins that I'm going to take and trade

0:56 today. What I'm going to also do is take

0:59 my phone, take a photograph of this,

1:02 take a photograph of this, and take a

1:04 photograph of this. That way when I'm

1:07 trading I know if I do not have a

1:10 certain Genie pen or a certain Haunted

1:13 Mansion pen or a certain Orangebird pen,

1:16 etc. That way I know what I have and

1:19 don't have. It's a good good way to it's

1:22 a good way to look and see what you

1:23 have. Sometimes you forget what's on

1:24 these boards. Yeah, I believe it's

1:26 sitting at a cool crisp 95°

1:30 currently in Celebration. I think the

1:32 foot's flopping around in the breeze

1:34 there. Got the windows down. Think I'm

1:37 going to park over at TTC Transportation

1:39 Ticket Center and walk to some resorts.

1:43 TTC also be referred to as Magic Kingdom

1:47 parking lot, but serves other purposes

1:49 as well. But yeah, MK parking lot. Not

1:52 sure if I'm going to go in Magic

1:53 Kingdom, but I'm parking there. Got 3:15

1:57 95°.

2:10 Tra's going by. I think I'm just going

2:10 to go from here and walk

2:13 over to the Poly Polynesian.

2:22 Prepare thyself for the moving tram.

2:22 I thought it was going to be closer to

2:24 me, but it's over there. You get the

2:26 idea. It's not too busy here at MK

2:28 today. Mostly because of the heat. I

2:30 would imagine on a weekday during the

2:32 heat wave it's not too bad. It's not uh

2:34 not not super busy. Try to stay in the

2:36 shade as much much as possible even if

2:38 it means walking up along this fence

2:40 line here on this welltrodden path.

2:43 Others have the same idea

2:46 cuz standing out there in the elements

2:50 warm.

2:51 Got the pins in a bag zip. I should

2:53 probably get some another type of

2:57 carrying device other than a a cheap

2:59 little plastic zipped bag. But this is

3:03 what I have for today. All 15 of these

3:06 are going to be traded up or traded down

3:08 or traded for ones I need. And I must

3:10 say, I am more of a purchaser than I am

3:13 a trader. Sometimes the ones you trade

3:14 for aren't the best. But if I find any

3:18 that are for sale, you know, in the

3:19 stores also, I'll purchase some ones I

3:22 need. But if I find some that I want to

3:24 trade, these are goners. These are going

3:26 to be gone. Not the strongest breeze

3:29 going on right now. You can see the wind

3:31 up there kind of

3:35 making the Oh, check this. We're going

3:37 to have a little We're going to have a

3:39 little Montreal crossing. Prepare

3:41 thselves.

3:42 There goes the Epcot Loop Montreal. over

3:46 to TTC and say hello yes to the WDW

3:52 arborist cone.

3:55 Here cones

3:57 bypassing this section going underneath

4:00 yet another one

4:02 and cutting through this way over to the

4:05 Polynesian Resort.

4:13 All right, just about made it to the

4:13 main area here at the Polynesian Resort

4:15 before heading into the gift shops and

4:17 checking out the pin trading boards.

4:18 Going to pop into Captain Cooks, get

4:20 myself a piping hot caffeinated

4:22 beverage, a small Joffre, I believe, the

4:25 blend they serve on property still. And

4:27 uh after that, get other hydrating

4:29 materials, but for now, caffeine. All

4:31 right, purchase the cup and get a little

4:33 self pouring here. I got my uh milk and

4:36 a little bit of sugar. I know I've

4:37 gotten a lot of cups of Joe's on

4:39 property when I can tell that the

4:41 consistency of this cup has changed. I

4:43 think the design's kind of similar, but

4:45 it's not as styrofoamy. It's like a

4:47 little more durable than it once was. I

4:49 don't know. I can just tell by holding

4:50 it. I mean, maybe I maybe I'm off base

4:52 with that. But yeah, I feel like maybe

4:54 Walt Lily Well, I don't know. They

4:56 probably wouldn't they probably wouldn't

4:57 know, but yeah, that's that's Walt

4:58 Lillian right there with their the laser

5:00 on their neck. Wow. Looks as if the

5:02 Boutiki has completely redone the front

5:05 of their building. The boutique. I was

5:07 saying that correctly. Not boutique, but

5:09 the boutique. A little too warm to wear

5:12 this. But I love this coat jacket right

5:15 here. Look at the design of that. I love

5:17 that. Kind of surprised, but they have a

5:19 Figment one that I do not have. Look at

5:21 Look at a green Figment right there.

5:23 It's like a green Figma. I do not have

5:24 that one. I just checked my photo. Trade

5:26 for that one. And I ended up giving one

5:28 of my I think it's a pretty decent

5:30 pretty decent Stormtrooper. I think it's

5:31 a pretty decent trade, right?

5:32 Stormtrooper for a Figment. I uh I don't

5:35 know. The stormtrooper I have doubles of

5:37 but I didn't have that figment. So yeah,

5:38 I got did my first trade of the day. See

5:41 what happens the rest of the day. Feel

5:42 like it's not too often to find a really

5:44 rare one. The one I got's kind of just a

5:46 mediocre one, but sometimes there's

5:47 mediocre ones that you don't have. So

5:49 that's the fun of trading. This pin

5:51 board, there's a few Mickey's I don't

5:52 think I have. This one's drawing my

5:53 attention. This little one right here

5:55 where he's pointing his thumb back at

5:56 his chest. I don't I don't know if

5:57 that's like an official one, but that's

5:59 definitely one I haven't seen too often

6:01 and definitely one I don't have. So, I

6:02 might trade for that one and for that

6:04 one there with his arms up with little

6:05 jazz hands. I just found out you're only

6:07 allowed to trade two pins per board. I

6:10 traded some good ones, my Aladdin and

6:12 the other one, and as soon as I traded

6:13 those off, some people behind me got

6:15 those. So, I think I I think I uh

6:17 downgraded a little bit, but I got ones

6:19 that I don't have, and that's all that

6:20 matters. And I traded doubles, which I

6:22 don't need. So, it all worked out. It

6:24 all worked out. But only two pins per

6:26 board per trade. Right. I traded this

6:28 BB-8 for another Cheshire that I don't

6:31 have right there. So, yeah, found

6:32 another board. I haven't stayed here yet

6:34 at the new extension here on the

6:36 Polynesian Resort in the DVC wing, but

6:38 I'm going to pop in and see what they

6:40 got for pins. There were two pin trading

6:41 boards inside there. One was in the

6:43 little restaurant that's attached to the

6:45 new DVC wing of the resort, which I need

6:50 to at some point stay there. And that's

6:52 where I got this one, an angry Mickey

6:56 pin. Look at him with his little claw

6:58 grasp. He's usually don't see Oh. Oh.

7:01 Oh.

7:03 Usually you don't see him in that mood,

7:04 but he's in a mood today. Yeah, really

7:07 nice DVC tower, but I haven't stayed

7:09 here. The other pin board that you have

7:10 to ask for in the front kind of lobby

7:12 check-in area, they brought out from the

7:15 back and didn't have anything that I

7:17 needed, but I I traded for this one.

7:18 Doing good so far. Little moment of

7:20 peacefulness here with these ducks.

7:54 Now, I've already stated this, but being

7:54 in the sun,

7:56 not pleasant. So, got going to go

7:59 inside.

8:00 Go inside

8:02 Grand Fian.

8:14 Holy cow, look at all the construction

8:14 going on in here. And this is usually

8:16 where the check-in desk is right here.

8:19 But they have uprooted all this.

8:21 I believe I heard that they're not going

8:23 to be doing the gingerbread in house

8:24 this Christmas. Usually they put the big

8:26 gingerbread house over here for the

8:28 holidays, Christmas holidays. They're

8:29 not going to do it because of all this.

8:31 It looks like they've added the front

8:32 check-in desk down here to a temporary

8:35 spot right here in a little atrium

8:37 amongst the Grand Fian carpet. Very

8:40 interesting. Big things happening.

8:42 Construction update. I don't see any pin

8:45 boards down there, but I'll check in the

8:46 gift shop in here. See if I can keep

8:48 continue trading. Look at Mickey and

8:50 Minnie in here in their kind of like

8:52 silhouetted out green greenish outfits

8:56 over here. There's also check the pin

8:58 board over here as well. the purchase

9:00 pins. Got a few over here. This one

9:02 says, "I'll be your Mickey." And there's

9:03 also this Mickey here. I'm not even sure

9:05 what that is right there, but I kind of

9:07 like that as well. All right, these are

9:10 the three pins I got. I got Mickey here

9:12 with his glasses on. I got Figma and the

9:15 legend himself, Herb.

9:17 >> And I got no pins.

9:18 >> You got no pins on you. And there's no

9:20 gingerbread house this year, right?

9:22 >> Oh my gosh.

9:22 >> No gingerbread house.

9:23 >> What is he doing?

9:24 >> What are people going to do when they

9:25 don't see her at the gingerbread house?

9:27 >> They'll find me. They'll have to just

9:28 come into the house. Look for her.

9:29 >> Come in the shops. Look for her. Herb

9:31 will be here.

9:31 >> It'll be some pin trade. People are pin

9:33 trading.

9:33 >> That's right. I'm always pin trading,

9:35 but I left mine. So, but I'll get some

9:38 in a minute. So, if you come back, I'll

9:39 have some.

9:41 >> Ah, so good. Running into him.

9:47 Grand Fian

9:48 legend of the holidays. Usually he's

9:49 right down there, but he's not going to

9:51 be down there this year because they are

9:52 not doing the gingerbread house. But

9:54 always good bumping into her.

10:13 I could use something some hydra

10:13 something hydrating

10:16 I think during the holidays like let's

10:18 say in December or maybe even late

10:19 November December pop back in see what's

10:22 going on in here. He says he wasn't sure

10:24 if they're going to be selling the

10:26 products some at in the in the area.

10:29 They're not going to have the

10:29 gingerbread house, but they might still

10:31 have some of the merchandise and things

10:32 like that. Some of the different breads

10:34 and the the gingerbread product. So,

10:37 let's stop back in and see. I got a

10:38 little little photo there.

10:49 The Magic Kingdom Walkway is open from 1

10:49 hour before park opening until 1 hour

10:52 after park closing.

10:55 Love this little peaceful stroll.

10:58 I think I am going to hop in MK and just

11:01 see what kind of pens they have and then

11:02 I'll continue walking and head over to

11:06 Contemporary Resort as well. Hit all

11:08 three of the resorts here upon the loop.

11:16 It's a little overcast. Not overcast,

11:16 but definitely not overcast. What I

11:19 meant to say is there is a cloud

11:21 covering the sun at this particular

11:22 moment.

11:25 And it's nice.

11:27 Well, I guess the sun is overcast, but

11:29 the rest of the sky is not, just the

11:30 sun.

11:32 Check out the Montreal stopped up here

11:33 for traffic clearance.

11:47 It's kind of crawling along and then

11:47 stopped directly above me.

12:06 Oh, starting to move again.

12:06 Traffic clearance

12:08 over. Well, granted.

12:26 Also, if you look really closely in the

12:26 center of the screen, the river boats

12:28 back there. Kind of hard to see it there

12:30 because you got the electric light

12:33 parade for the water parade. But they're

12:35 way back there. That's the river boat,

12:38 the Liberty Bell.

12:41 Not on the Rivers of America anymore.

12:42 Just just sitting back there on this

12:44 little canal

12:47 right here on Seven Seas Lagoon along

12:49 the walkway. There's a little better

12:51 view of it right there. Took a photo.

13:00 It's way back there, but yeah, still

13:00 exists. Don't know what they're going to

13:01 do with it, but it's just sitting

13:04 sitting along the canal, right along the

13:06 walkway.

13:18 Also, what's this cast member doing over

13:18 here? His little tent set up.

13:25 I've never seen that before. cast member

13:25 with a some shade. Little umbrella there

13:27 above

13:29 doing something.

13:32 Never have I ever seen a cast member in

13:35 this spot before. Right here along the

14:08 Nice of a crossing of the Montreals.

14:08 Montreal red. And then on the other side

14:10 of the platform, on the other side of

14:11 the beams,

14:14 Montreal line green.

14:39 I'm going to guess the park is probably

14:39 not very busy. I mean, there's hardly

14:40 anybody waiting for the boat here to go

14:42 over to the resorts.

15:06 into the Magic Kingdom and head back to

15:06 Frontier Land to the Frontier Trading

15:08 Post. See what I can get as far as pens

15:12 go. Might be able to trade some in

15:14 there. If not, I might be able to see if

15:15 there's any that I need that I can

15:16 purchase. I'm in a trading and

15:19 purchasing pin mood today.

15:22 >> That's the theme. That's the goal and

15:25 that's what I'm hoping to accomplish by

15:27 the end of the day. I've already started

15:28 on that accomplishment. So, it's worked

15:30 out pretty well. All right. I'm over

15:32 here inside. This is in Frontier Land,

15:35 which is pretty much the main pen

15:37 trading headquarters, if you will, of

15:39 this park. You know, Epcot is underneath

15:41 Spaceship Earth. over here. It's in

15:43 Frontier Land. Look at that Scrooge

15:45 McDuck right there ringing the bell

15:47 right over here. I don't think I have

15:48 that Mickey one, but not sure if I'm

15:50 going to purchase that one, but I don't

15:51 have that one. I don't think I have that

15:52 one either. But maybe I could find those

15:54 in trades. I think I'm going to purchase

15:56 this. This is $35. But it's like you can

15:58 unzip it. You put all your pens in here.

16:00 So, I can use this for future future

16:03 trades instead of carrying around a

16:04 little a little plastic zippy bag, you

16:07 know? Maybe I kind of use that. I go

16:09 over here, see what's over in the what's

16:11 new section. Looks like it's kind of the

16:14 same stuff that I saw the other day. I

16:16 also heard that some of the May the 4th

16:19 pins, which I did not wasn't able to get

16:23 on May the 4th at Hollywood Studios,

16:24 they were sold out, are starting to

16:26 appear back in the parks again, which is

16:28 kind of weird. And I didn't have I don't

16:30 have one for 2025. So, if that's the

16:32 case, I'm going to buy it. But I'm going

16:34 to get this as well. Get this also. So,

16:36 don't have to carry around a a little

16:38 zippy bag anymore. Also, there's these

16:40 these these Mickey pens, too, which are

16:42 kind of nice. These are I don't think

16:43 I'm going to get these, but this is a

16:45 pen set. It's like, look at this. It's

16:47 like 70s Mickey. This is $35, which is

16:50 pretty good. $35 for four pens. Not too

16:53 bad, but I feel like these would end up

16:54 on a pen trade board at some point. I'll

16:58 throw this one here. I like the big one.

17:00 That's pretty good, too. How much are

17:01 these? 35 for that, too. That's not a

17:03 bad deal. Four pens for 35 bucks.

17:05 Sometimes pens are like $15$20 each when

17:08 you buy them separately. So that's not a

17:09 bad deal. All right, mission

17:13 accomplished here. Look at this. I got

17:14 Luke right here. And you got Vader. Is

17:17 that Vader behind you? Yeah, Luke right

17:18 there and Vader behind him. And it is

17:20 date stamp of 2025, which I'm excited

17:22 about because on May the 4th, they were

17:24 all sold out. So I ended up getting one.

17:26 Now I also traded another one of my

17:27 pens. Traded one of my Splash Mountain

17:28 pens that I had doubles and triples of

17:30 for a another Cheshshire Catwin. cast

17:33 member was very excited. She's going to

17:34 use it in one of her secret pen training

17:37 trivia question. She goes, "You sure you

17:39 want to get one of these splash pins?"

17:40 Like, I got two or three of them. So,

17:41 she was like, "Oh, I use this for one of

17:43 the trivia ones." And if someone guesses

17:44 it, then they get the special hidden pen

17:47 trading pen. Cast members do that

17:48 sometimes, too, which I think is I think

17:50 it's pretty cool. All right, now into

17:52 the DVC lounge to transfer things over

17:54 to this. All right, accomplished

17:56 switching them from the bag into the pen

17:58 trading book. These are the ones I'm

17:59 going to take home. And these are the

18:01 ones I continue to need to trade

18:03 throughout the course of the day. And I

18:04 got my May the 4th one in the back right

18:07 there. So, got myself a little drink

18:09 here, a little hydration. I got myself

18:11 my pin trading thing. And I've

18:12 transferred them from the little zippy

18:14 bag over into my new pin trading in the

18:18 park bag right there. So, yeah. I like

18:21 it. I like it. I got myself a little

18:23 refill. They're actually closing the

18:24 lounge right now. It's like 2 minutes

18:26 until 6:00 p.m. and they're telling

18:28 everybody, "You don't have to go home,

18:30 but you can't stay here." So, heading

18:33 out.

18:37 They ended up picking up a couple

18:37 t-shirts. They already got some of the

18:39 Halloween merch out. They haven't

18:40 unveiled all the Halloween stuff, but

18:43 they have some Halloweenes t-shirts out.

18:45 Also, I took the straps off of this.

18:47 There was like some straps that didn't

18:48 really like work out too well. I tried

18:50 putting it around my shoulders and neck

18:52 and everything and it was just the the

18:53 strap was too short. Really

18:55 uncomfortable. So, this will fit in my

18:57 back pocket or I could just put it in

18:58 the back. I'll show you what I got as

19:00 well. But got my 25th 25th anniversary

19:04 of pin trading and I got my pin bag and

19:06 then I got some couple t-shirts with the

19:10 Halloween season quickly quickly

19:13 approaching.

19:14 I mean, it's it's kind of already almost

19:17 here. Almost.

19:19 There

19:22 goes

19:28 the Montreal. I'm walking over there.

19:28 Contemporary.

19:30 Getting some steps in today. Just

19:32 walking.

19:33 Walking around the lagoon.

19:36 All right. Over at the Contemporary now.

19:38 Going to pop inside.

19:40 Dare I say my favorite architecturally

19:43 designed

19:49 resort. Classic

19:49 71 opening day.

19:57 Oh, Montreal going by. Look at that. Ah,

19:57 it's a thing of beauty right there. The

19:58 Contemporary. I don't know. I just have

20:01 a soft spot for the Contemporary.

20:03 Heading in. See what I can find in here.

20:06 Yeah. How do you How can you not love

20:08 this thing? Look at this.

20:11 I don't know. It's a thing of beauty.

20:14 Maybe I'm the only one, but yeah, I just

20:16 I love it.

20:18 When I think of Walt Disney World

20:19 resorts, this is the first one that pops

20:21 in my head cuz, you know, it's one of

20:23 the originals. I mean, as you're walking

20:24 into the base, the Montreal goes over

20:26 your head and goes directly through the

20:28 resort itself. There's not many that can

20:30 say that. There's not a whole heck of a

20:32 lot that can say that. In fact, this

20:34 might be the only one that can say. Love

20:35 the carpet in here, too, which is like

20:37 the same carpet that Dandy Torrance is

20:39 sitting in front of in The Shining. It's

20:41 a different color scheme, but this is

20:43 the Shining carpet. Not all of it. This

20:46 right here is in no way the same pattern

20:48 from the Kubric classic, The Shining.

20:52 This is not. However, if you watch

20:55 Stanley Kubri's The Shining, I pointed

20:58 this out before, but every time I see

20:59 it, I'm always reminded that this is the

21:01 same carpet from Stanley Kubrick's The

21:04 Shining that's in the Overlook Hotel

21:06 right here in the Contemporary on Disney

21:09 property. Danny's not here. Mrs.

21:12 torrents.

21:14 Also, thinnest, skinniest escalator

21:18 ever. I mean, this is my feet at a

21:19 normal width. And this is this is the

21:22 escalator. I mean, it's just kind of

21:24 like really really narrow right here

21:26 going up. I mean, there may be thinner

21:27 escalators and skinnier escalators than

21:29 this. This has to be in the top 10 of

21:31 the skinniest escalators that I've ever

21:34 seen right here leading up to the top

21:36 floor or the main floor, the main lobby

21:40 area of it. Well, not the lobby, but the

21:41 main gift shop area of the Contemporary

21:44 right over here at BVG

21:46 gifts. I don't think I'm going to buy

21:48 it, but I really I don't know. I kind of

21:50 like that Fantasia like on an old spot

21:52 like 80s or '9s vibe to this like mug

21:55 right here. Stay at Bay Lake Tower

21:57 recently. It's the DVC Tower, but I

21:59 haven't stayed at the Disneyland, not

22:00 Disneyland, but the Contemporary Resort

22:02 in a while. I'm talking about this

22:03 particular section. If you go out here

22:05 and walk across a little ledge, like a

22:07 little uh little little walkway, little

22:10 platform, you go over to Bay Lake Tower,

22:11 which is just adjacent. But it's been a

22:13 while since I stayed here in the actual

22:15 Contemporary many years ago. I need to

22:17 stay here again one of one of these one

22:19 day. And this is the pin board in here.

22:21 That's kind of a unique one right there.

22:22 That the duck right there you don't see

22:24 too often as well. I think it's like is

22:26 that like a power line duck? I think it

22:28 might be. Oh, look at this right here. I

22:29 You don't see that one too often either.

22:31 None of these are really like jumping

22:32 out at me though. But uh

22:35 >> yeah, I'll look over, see what they have

22:36 for sale. Montreal going over my head.

22:38 But I got another wall pen that I don't

22:39 have that closes up. It says all started

22:41 by a mouse. I do not have this Figma pen

22:44 and I do not have this Maleficent pen.

22:46 So I figured what the heck, might as

22:48 well get them, but I really like this is

22:49 the one I really wanted to get. And then

22:50 the other two kind of just jumped out at

22:52 me cuz I love some Figma and I've been

22:54 collecting Maleficent as well. So got

22:56 that also. Nailed it. Before I forget,

22:58 I'll show the cheese that I got for the

23:00 upcoming Halloween season. Look at this

23:02 like snack eating ghost right here with

23:04 the Mickey ears on. WDW. It's got the

23:07 pumpkin. It's got a little beverage

23:08 right over there. Got some popcorn

23:10 spilling all around. I love this cute

23:12 little ghost right there. And then I got

23:14 this WDW with the bats. I really like

23:17 this one. I don't know. This one This

23:18 one kind of said you should get So I

23:20 ended up getting that one. And then I

23:21 saw that one. I think they were two for

23:23 25 if you buy one. I think it was more

23:25 than more than what the half price would

23:27 have been or the the double price would

23:29 have been I should say. I think they

23:30 were 2 for 25. Maybe it was 2 for 30.

23:32 Either way, I got two shirts, you know.

23:34 Wait, no, actually, I think Hold on.

23:36 They were Let me uh clarify this. That's

23:39 the extra large. Wait a second. Let me

23:41 uh I'm not seeing a price. I don't

23:42 remember how much they were, but yeah, I

23:44 ended up ended up getting ended up

23:46 getting these. These are the shirts.

23:48 This is my shirt haul right here. I

23:50 mean, who Nothing says Halloween like

23:51 the end of July, right? But yeah, got to

23:53 got to prepare. Got to prepare for the

23:54 2025 haunt and Halloween season. Doing

23:58 some pin trading, buying some merch,

24:00 having a good day, having some time,

24:02 staying out of the sun. While I'm in

24:03 here, look at the magnificent Mary Blair

24:05 mural here on the wall. Five-legged

24:07 goats on the other side, but there are

24:09 some standard four-legged goats on this

24:12 side, which do not get as much

24:13 recognition as the very rare five-legged

24:16 goat. I actually have a five-legged goat

24:18 pin at home. Those are kind of rare,

24:20 too. That one I'm not trading. I don't

24:22 have duplicates of that one, but yeah,

24:24 four-legged goats. I don't think they

24:26 get enough love. This is This is all

24:28 about the four-legged goat today. I'm

24:29 not even going to talk about the

24:30 five-legged goat anymore. No more. Only

24:33 four-legged the rest of the two-legged

24:36 skunk and two-handed skunk. Now, if it

24:38 was on all fours, it' be fourleggeds.

24:40 Four legs, but it's got two legs. And

24:42 they are It's a So, there's skunks right

24:45 there. At least I think that's a skunk,

24:46 right? I think that would be what that

24:48 is. Right up top. There's a bear right

24:50 there. There's an owl. There's another

24:53 bear as well going all the way up. This

24:56 thing is amazing. This whole mural,

24:58 which is absolutely incredible. All

25:00 these tiles that are in here. There's a

25:03 bunny rabbit right there. There's a cute

25:05 little bunny. And here's another skunk

25:08 that is on all fours.

25:11 Okay, so some of them stand up and say

25:13 hi, and other ones just walk around.

25:15 Mary Blair really loves some skunks.

25:18 There's more skunks right there. More

25:22 skunks. There's four skunks.

25:25 Four skunks. I'm like

25:28 significant of the skunks. There's a lot

25:30 of skunks.

25:36 These are like charging towards me. Like

25:36 charging skunks. They're like coming

25:38 towards me at a rapid pace. These skunks

25:42 going up up up another skinny escalator

25:46 up to the Montreal platform.

25:49 Heading up. This thing's full on pins

25:51 now. Ones that I purchased, ones that I

25:53 traded.

25:55 Little bit of both. Pretty happy with my

25:56 finds today. Didn't really have a major

25:59 game plan. I just knew I wanted to pop

26:01 in the parks or pop in the park. Pop in

26:04 the resorts. And I did. I make my way

26:06 homeward.

26:09 Watch the Rays game against the Yankees.

26:11 Game three. They're tied up one to one.

26:13 Rays.

26:15 Trade deadline coming up very soon, the

26:17 next day or two.

26:20 Ray's really got to they got to get some

26:21 wins going.

26:27 >> Still, I think eight and a half games

26:27 back

26:29 in the division. I mean, it's it's still

26:31 still a ways to go, but it's it's crunch

26:33 time. Ray's got to get uh get their you

26:36 know what together. You know what I'm

26:38 talking about, Mickey, right? Your you

26:39 know what.

27:03 There's the current state of the AL East

27:03 as of right now.

27:06 Game started 15 minutes ago. Time I get

27:09 home, I'll probably catch the second

27:10 half of the game.

27:12 See what happens.

27:15 Nine games back.

27:33 >> See the dust about to appear. It's not

27:33 night time yet. It's not even dusk yet,

27:34 but it'll soon be dusk. See the sun over

27:38 there? The distance. Also see the water

27:41 bridge. The boats are going over.

27:43 Cars drive underneath. You can see right

27:45 here the water routes and cars go

27:47 directly underneath.

27:50 >> Yeah.

27:51 >> And buses.

27:52 >> There's a landing down.

27:55 >> Sky looks pretty cool.

28:25 It's like the heavens are open up and

28:25 bestowing all its beautiful eye candy

28:28 upon us. Look at that. Look at that

28:30 right there. I mean, come on.

28:33 It's the little things. Just the little

28:35 things. I mean, that is just so

28:37 picturesque and totally free to just,

28:39 you know, you have to, you know,

28:39 nothing. No, no charge. You just look up

28:41 at the sky and you see that.

28:43 >> This is one of the coolest pin boards.

28:44 It looks just like a Montreal

28:46 >> Disney Transport.

28:50 The Montreal goes over. Double Montreal

28:51 goes over.

28:53 >> This might be the the best pin board

28:54 ever right here. Look at this. Donald's

28:56 pretty good.

29:02 >> People are coming in now because the new

29:02 parade, the Disney Starlight parade,

29:03 which I saw the other night. Heading to

29:06 watch the heading home. Grab a bike to

29:09 eat. I'm thinking maybe a burrito place

29:12 that's over by the new Publix on World

29:14 Drive. Grab that and then watch a little

29:16 baseball. Parade's great, but a lot of

29:18 people, nobody was really in the park

29:19 during the day, but now the sun is going

29:21 down. People are heading in in droves.

29:22 Watch the parade. Nighttime parade.

29:24 Florida can be pretty rough sometime in

29:25 the summers. Got to be completely

29:27 honest. I'm not going to lie about that.

29:29 Brutal. But now that the sun has, you

29:33 know, gone over the horizon a little

29:35 bit, it's a little more tolerable. But

29:37 dang, you get some really good cloud

29:39 formations. And

29:42 another Montreal going by. It's like

29:44 Montreal Peach.

29:46 Possibly peach from here.

30:01 Listen to those insects.

30:01 There's something in the trees.

30:08 That was supposed to be Arnold, but I

30:08 didn't I didn't uh I don't think I got

30:10 to my best Arnold capacity on that one.

30:12 That's right. Come on.

30:16 Look at that sunset. Wow. Look at the

30:19 pre- dusk. It's not a sunset. I don't

30:22 know why I keep saying that, but yeah.

30:25 It feels good out. It feels tolerable

30:27 out here now. Let's just say let's say

30:28 that it feels tolerable out here now. I

30:31 wouldn't say it feels good, but it feels

30:33 better than it did.

30:39 That's That's good enough. I don't know

30:39 why I just thought about this, but it's

30:40 a lot of Disney vloggers. Tons of Disney

30:42 vloggers, Disney influencers, Disney

30:45 social media people. You know who I

30:47 missed doing Disney vlogs? Michael K.

30:49 Remember Michael K? He stopped doing

30:52 Disney vlogs and stuff and he was a he

30:54 was a breath of fresh air in the Disney

30:57 vlogging community.

31:02 If Michael K ever started doing Disney

31:02 vlogs again, I would I would definitely

31:04 watch them. I don't know why I remember

31:06 one time him and I were here and we were

31:08 parked kind of in the same area I'm

31:10 parked at now. We were walking through

31:11 here having a discussion. So when I

31:13 walked walked through this area, I just

31:16 thinking random thoughts, I know. Random

31:18 thoughts, I know, but hope he's doing

31:20 well. Disney community is such a great

31:22 one. Whether it be Disneyland, whether

31:25 it be Disney World, and you know,

31:27 Disneyland Paris, which I've only been

31:29 to one time over a few days, I'm sure I

31:32 would imagine they have their own really

31:34 good Disney community. Good to see Herb

31:39 Gingerbread House Herb over at the

31:43 over at the uh Grand Fian. I know people

31:46 wonder why I go to Disney so much, and

31:48 it's because of the rides. It's because

31:49 of the attractions. It's because of

31:51 merchandise. It's because of pin

31:52 trading. It's because of new events that

31:55 happen, new parades that rear their

31:56 head. But also, it's just being in there

31:59 is nice. You know, when you're a

32:01 passholder, it's a little bit different

32:03 than coming here on vacation. You come

32:05 here on vacation, you're so rushed to do

32:06 everything. But there are times, like

32:08 today, I didn't get on one ride. I

32:10 didn't get on one attraction. I didn't

32:12 even really plan. I kind of wanted to

32:15 pop inside of Magikina, but that wasn't

32:17 really I didn't know if it was going to

32:18 happen and I just did. Walked around Bay

32:22 Lake. No, 7C. I did not go over to Bay

32:25 Lake. Bay Lakes over there. Saw Bay

32:28 Lake. Saw the water. Saw the the water

32:30 bridge. Did I park over in this area?

32:33 But just being a passholder is so nice.

32:34 Especially living in Celebration. Could

32:36 pop over here in 10 minutes. It's great.

32:39 keep meeting people,

32:42 seeing friends, seeing cast members.

32:45 It's a nice familiar

32:48 feeling. It's a It's a It's like a

32:50 comfort food, but a place, if that makes

32:54 sense. It's like It's like having a

32:56 comfort food, but in a place.

33:00 I'm gonna go get myself a burrito. I

33:02 think just the experience of being

33:03 somewhere

33:05 and just those those vibes that you get,

33:08 the nostalgia

33:10 that you create in your own mind, your

33:13 own life, memories.

33:16 Got a lifetime of memories here.

33:18 Lifetime.

33:20 My mom and dad first brought me here the

33:23 mid70s when I was very young. I do not

33:25 remember that. And then we would

33:27 continue. I mean, through photos, I

33:28 remember seeing photos. Obviously, we

33:30 still have those. But my first

33:32 recollection was shortly after Epcot

33:34 opened in ' 82,

33:38 which I would have been I don't know if

33:38 we showed up opening year, but Epcot

33:41 started in ' 82, which would have been

33:43 six. Couple years after that, we would

33:45 start coming here on a semi-regular

33:47 basis once a year. I started getting

33:48 those core memories. Then we moved here

33:49 in '91,

33:51 2 years after Hollywood Studios, then

33:53 MGM Studios opened.

33:56 I've just built a lot of nostalgia and a

33:58 lot of core memories here. I'm a

33:59 passholder. I live a few minutes away. I

34:01 live in Celebration. And I love being a

34:03 Disney adult. I love going to the Disney

34:05 parks. I love

34:07 just having days where I have no game

34:09 plan where I can just walk around, do

34:11 some pen trading, just do my thing, and

34:15 living a living a good life here in

34:17 Central Florida.

34:19 But obviously, I'm leaving in a

34:21 [laughter] few days. I'm never here, but

34:24 when I am, this is what I like to do.

34:36 I'm I'm liking the fact that the sun is

34:36 not baking my neck and my head right

34:39 now. This is a good time. This is a good

34:42 time to show up to the parks, but I

34:45 showed up earlier cuz I didn't show up

34:48 now, but you get the idea.

34:58 You know, I've also been thinking how

34:58 long I've been a passholder here at WDW

35:00 and then Disneyland.

35:02 Many, many years as well. I got my first

35:04 annual pass in 2001, I believe it was.

35:08 Definitely 2003. No, it was 2001,

35:12 but maybe 2002 or 2000, let's call it,

35:14 let's say 2003.

35:16 I think it was 2001, which was 24 years

35:20 ago. Now, I did skip a couple years of

35:22 going to Disney.

35:24 Took a little little bit of a break. Did

35:26 other things. Got into playing in a

35:28 band, doing the punk rock stuff. Kind of

35:31 fell out of the Disney Disney thing and

35:34 the Disney community and

35:37 got back into it.

35:40 Probably got my more recent annual pass

35:43 again.

35:45 Well, I don't know, mid 2000s. only a

35:47 few years like 03

35:50 to maybe 05 or 06 I didn't have an

35:52 annual pass. So I have probably been a

35:54 passholder

35:57 for almost almost 20 years I've been a

36:00 passholder to WDW.

36:03 Love it.

36:05 Even Even if I took 5 years off of that

36:07 15 years. Oh hi how you doing over

36:10 there? How you doing Monroe?

36:13 They used to have a coast to coast pass.

36:15 They got rid of that in 2020, but for

36:17 like five or six years, I was a coast to

36:19 coast passholder. Now you have to do

36:21 them individually. You have to get a If

36:23 you want to go coast to coast,

36:26 you got to buy one here and buy one at

36:28 Disneyland.

36:30 I am not a Disneyland Paris passholder.

36:33 I think I'm good on that. I don't know

36:34 when the next time I'm going to go to

36:35 Paris, so there's no need for that. But

36:39 and I really have there's really no

36:42 reason in my life to not have a

36:45 Disneyland annual pass and to not have

36:47 Disney World annual pass, especially

36:50 having DBC and go over to the West

36:53 Coast, hop a plane. Things might change.

36:57 I cannot I definitely cannot see myself

36:59 not being a WDW passholder. There might

37:01 come a time when I'm not a Disneyland

37:04 passholder. I mean, there may come a

37:06 time when I'm not popping on a plane and

37:08 heading over to Disney World frequently

37:09 enough to buy an annual pass, but for

37:12 what I do, what I love, what I enjoy,

37:16 the Coast to Coast Disney parks,

37:19 it's worth it for me. Just my opinion.

37:23 Not everyone's going to agree. Some

37:25 people are going to heavily disagree.

37:27 Some people are going to take issue with

37:30 it.

37:31 But I think a lot of people understand.

37:34 I think they just understand.

37:37 I don't know what to say, but I do

37:40 really wish they'd bring that coast to

37:42 coast pass back. Bring it back, Disney.

37:44 Come on. We need that coast to coast AP.

37:52 Why doesn't it exist anymore? I mean, I

37:52 get why it didn't for a few years

37:53 because Disneyland wasn't open for like

37:55 a year and a half, but now it's open.

37:56 Bring it back, please. Stopping off over

37:58 here at the Publix Plaza on the corner

38:00 of Will Drive. the not the 192 Publix,

38:03 but the the one right on I4

38:07 to Bubba's

38:09 Burritos. Always like I always enjoy

38:13 this place. I don't eat here all the

38:14 time, but I eat here occasionally.

38:16 Getting a little uh little burrito

38:18 place. I always get the burrito bowl,

38:20 which is basically just a non wrapped up

38:22 burrito in a bowl

38:25 right over here at the Publix Plaza.

38:27 Sometimes I'll go in, well, a lot of

38:28 times I'll go in Publix and I get the my

38:31 usual meal, just like a pre-made salad

38:33 and chickpeas and things like that. But

38:35 then other times I'll get, you know, I

38:36 won't be in the mood for that. But

38:39 tonight, I was in the mood for a little

38:42 little burrito bowl.

38:45 So, I'm going to get one of those. But

38:47 first, wanted to show this amazing view

38:49 here of the sun setting off in the

38:53 distance. the Mickey Power Pole.

39:06 days. Not immediately, but a few days

39:08 from now into early August. Not August

39:10 1st, but a couple days after that, I

39:12 will be going to another country. And

39:14 then after that, some other stuff. A lot

39:17 of lot of things on the horizon. a lot.

39:25 watching. I'll see you in the next

39:26 video. That's the Mickey Power Pole
