So we have a friend that comes 22 00:01:27,680 --> 00:01:31,840 into our lives on TikTok, Logan. He is AVIP tour guide in Walt 23 00:01:31,840 --> 00:01:34,200 Disney World. And he said a fact the other day 24 00:01:34,200 --> 00:01:40,680 about the popcorn cart stand cart at the entrance of Magic 25 00:01:40,680 --> 00:01:41,760 Kingdom.

You said Churro. 31 00:01:54,480 --> 00:01:56,200 No, last night I said churro, but I meant popcorn. 32 00:01:56,200 --> 00:01:57,520 It makes more sense. That's popcorn. 33 00:01:57,600 --> 00:01:59,160 Popcorn. And Disney World, that one 34 00:01:59,160 --> 00:02:02,240 Popcorn. Can you see my paper? 35 00:02:02,720 --> 00:02:04,720 No, I can't. How much do you think that one 36 00:02:04,720 --> 00:02:09,199 popcorn stand at the entrance of Magic Kingdom makes in a year? 37 00:02:09,560 --> 00:02:16,400 $1 million. 5 million.

Busy. 56 00:03:18,080 --> 00:03:19,960 It was pretty busy it. Was pretty busy. 57 00:03:19,960 --> 00:03:24,080 It was really, I mean, we've gone when it's been busier, but 58 00:03:24,080 --> 00:03:30,200 for quote UN quote off peak, that was crazy. 59 00:03:30,200 --> 00:03:34,240 That was really busy. I mean, like the big rides, 60 00:03:34,960 --> 00:03:40,840 we're always over an hour, although, you know, we did 61 00:03:40,840 --> 00:03:43,680 really well with with Lightning Lane. 62 00:03:44,120 --> 00:03:46,760 We got, we were able to do everything that we wanted to do. 63 00:03:46,840 --> 00:03:52,120 Yeah, we actually did in Disneyland and California 64 00:03:52,120 --> 00:03:54,800 Venture. We did all the Lightning Lane 65 00:03:55,160 --> 00:03:59,440 rides I believe. Yeah, No, we got to a point. 66 00:03:59,440 --> 00:04:04,600 So we, we got there, we left like later in the morning. 67 00:04:04,600 --> 00:04:06,880 We didn't leave like early in the morning to have a full day, 68 00:04:06,880 --> 00:04:08,960 try to get a full day. The first day, we were only 69 00:04:08,960 --> 00:04:11,040 planning on going in, you know, that evening. 70 00:04:13,440 --> 00:04:14,880 Well, let's just start with that first. 71 00:04:14,880 --> 00:04:18,360 Let's start off with the fact that we found out or realized 72 00:04:18,760 --> 00:04:21,279 that Disneyland California Adventure was celebrating their 73 00:04:21,279 --> 00:04:22,840 25th anniversary while we were there. 74 00:04:23,320 --> 00:04:26,640 Yeah, like the week before. That's when Disney is decided to 75 00:04:26,640 --> 00:04:29,520 announce, like the week before, that they're doing the 25th 76 00:04:29,520 --> 00:04:35,360 anniversary Super Bowl Sunday. Yes, Super Bowl Sunday. 77 00:04:39,200 --> 00:04:40,800 I know. Sorry, I'm just now I'm 78 00:04:40,800 --> 00:04:43,840 distracted. Melanie, I know she just learned 79 00:04:43,840 --> 00:04:47,960 that Disneyland has the most rides of any Disney park and DCA 80 00:04:47,960 --> 00:04:50,480 is third. I know that's what I tell people 81 00:04:50,880 --> 00:04:53,960 I'm and as of as a whole, like as resorts. 82 00:04:53,960 --> 00:04:55,560 OK, let's take the Disneyland Resort. 83 00:04:55,560 --> 00:04:56,800 I'm getting off on a tangent, but I'm going. 84 00:04:56,800 --> 00:05:01,160 To do it, I'll get back to it. Disneyland Resort, So that 85 00:05:01,160 --> 00:05:04,040 includes Disneyland and California Adventure and then 86 00:05:04,040 --> 00:05:07,440 Disney World Resort. So Magic Kingdom, Epcot, 87 00:05:07,440 --> 00:05:08,720 Hollywood Studios, Animal Kingdom. 88 00:05:10,800 --> 00:05:14,120 There are only about I think I'm and I don't know the exact I 89 00:05:14,120 --> 00:05:15,480 can't remember. I have looked it up. 90 00:05:15,640 --> 00:05:20,640 I think Disney World has like 5 more rides and that could be 91 00:05:21,240 --> 00:05:24,560 attraction because whenever you look it up, when I look it up 92 00:05:24,560 --> 00:05:27,720 and I try to figure it out, I would have to go through and 93 00:05:28,600 --> 00:05:31,360 weed out what are actually rides, what are actually shows. 94 00:05:31,560 --> 00:05:33,320 And I'm not I'm not going to do that you guys. 95 00:05:34,200 --> 00:05:37,840 So some of those are more considered attractions in Disney 96 00:05:37,840 --> 00:05:41,600 World and we may not have them here in Disneyland. 97 00:05:41,640 --> 00:05:46,000 But like for the size of Disney World, it actually doesn't have 98 00:05:46,000 --> 00:05:50,080 that much that many more rides as it's going to have more 99 00:05:50,080 --> 00:05:52,600 restaurants. But also everything is way more 100 00:05:52,600 --> 00:05:55,480 spaced out. So that helps it feel not so 101 00:05:55,480 --> 00:06:01,000 crowded, but it also makes the lines higher wait times because, 102 00:06:01,680 --> 00:06:03,240 and this, I'm just throwing a number out. 103 00:06:03,240 --> 00:06:05,680 I'm not saying this is exact, but let's say Animal Kingdom. 104 00:06:05,680 --> 00:06:09,280 Oh, you only have 4 big rides where Disneyland you've got like 105 00:06:09,280 --> 00:06:12,800 2050. I mean, again, I'm just throwing 106 00:06:12,800 --> 00:06:14,880 numbers out. I'm not saying those are exact, 107 00:06:15,120 --> 00:06:17,280 but obviously those four rides are going to have much longer 108 00:06:17,280 --> 00:06:19,480 wait times than Animal Kingdom because that's all anyone has to 109 00:06:19,480 --> 00:06:22,680 do. OK, moving on. 110 00:06:22,720 --> 00:06:25,600 OK, nice little tangent. Thank you. 111 00:06:25,920 --> 00:06:30,160 So you know I love DCADCA sometimes doesn't get. 112 00:06:31,240 --> 00:06:34,440 I. Love and I love DCA and I went a 113 00:06:34,440 --> 00:06:37,840 few months after it opened for, you know, I didn't realize it at 114 00:06:37,840 --> 00:06:40,720 the time I was in high school, but like I remember the 115 00:06:40,720 --> 00:06:43,840 original, oh, we don't have the map. 116 00:06:43,840 --> 00:06:47,800 Not that the podcast would care, but so I was really excited 117 00:06:47,800 --> 00:06:52,560 about that and sorry, and that day we did have reservations. 118 00:06:52,560 --> 00:06:54,320 Can I turn towards you a little more here? 119 00:06:54,520 --> 00:06:55,600 No. You're not really. 120 00:06:55,840 --> 00:07:00,920 OK. And so I was excited about that. 121 00:07:01,120 --> 00:07:04,760 And our reservation was for California Venture that day. 122 00:07:06,960 --> 00:07:10,200 So they also had, I think we talked about it on the podcast, 123 00:07:12,480 --> 00:07:19,120 The Popcorn Bucket, which is the Mickey's pal around, Pixar pal 124 00:07:19,120 --> 00:07:20,440 around. Mickey fun wheel. 125 00:07:20,800 --> 00:07:23,120 Is it the Mickey fun wheel? I think it's Pixie Pixie. 126 00:07:23,240 --> 00:07:26,840 Pixie the Reds now called the Pixar pal around, but it's 127 00:07:26,840 --> 00:07:28,200 called the Mickey Fun Wheel before. 128 00:07:28,200 --> 00:07:31,800 That OK, It's the Ferris wheel. It lights up. 129 00:07:32,320 --> 00:07:35,520 And so I'm not a huge popcorn bucket person. 130 00:07:35,680 --> 00:07:38,320 You have some Star Wars ones. But I was like, I want that. 131 00:07:38,480 --> 00:07:41,760 But we're worried about selling out because also the 25th 132 00:07:41,760 --> 00:07:44,520 anniversary was only being celebrated from like the 8th to 133 00:07:44,520 --> 00:07:47,480 the 15th. So Friday morning before we left 134 00:07:47,480 --> 00:07:50,160 our house we mobile ordered it because we knew we were going to 135 00:07:50,160 --> 00:07:51,520 have dinner in the park that night. 136 00:07:53,960 --> 00:07:56,960 Oh no way someone on on Tiktok she was there too. 137 00:07:58,200 --> 00:08:00,880 Well, you're in the right place because we're talking about it 138 00:08:00,880 --> 00:08:02,240 tonight is. That the one with the swinging 139 00:08:02,240 --> 00:08:06,200 Ferris wheel? Yes, yes, it is Wheel of death, 140 00:08:06,240 --> 00:08:07,320 babe. You can't see that. 141 00:08:07,320 --> 00:08:09,040 On to TT. No, I'm sorry. 142 00:08:09,720 --> 00:08:10,880 Sorry, guys. I'm sorry. 143 00:08:11,000 --> 00:08:14,440 So we mobile ordered it. We got there, took us a long 144 00:08:14,440 --> 00:08:16,000 time because we hit some major traffic. 145 00:08:16,000 --> 00:08:18,760 It took us quite a bit longer than. 146 00:08:18,760 --> 00:08:22,640 Two hours that it usually takes. Yeah, about hour, maybe. 147 00:08:22,800 --> 00:08:24,760 Yeah, hour and a half hour and a half to two hours longer than it 148 00:08:24,760 --> 00:08:30,080 usually takes. But yes, we were too. 149 00:08:30,080 --> 00:08:33,840 Autumn when? So when when it opened, they had 150 00:08:33,840 --> 00:08:38,080 cast members lining the streets, waving and clapping and handing 151 00:08:38,080 --> 00:08:41,679 out. Hold on, hold on, You were 152 00:08:41,679 --> 00:08:43,480 talking about? I'm just saying it real quick. 153 00:08:43,600 --> 00:08:45,280 OK. I'm gonna stop looking at the 154 00:08:45,280 --> 00:08:50,920 chat, I'm sorry. You're talking about mobile 155 00:08:50,920 --> 00:08:52,600 ordering the bucket. So we got it. 156 00:08:52,600 --> 00:08:54,080 That's that was my point. We got it. 157 00:08:54,080 --> 00:08:56,800 We mobile ordered it when we were hours away. 158 00:08:56,800 --> 00:09:00,160 Every day it was selling out like, 'cause they have like how 159 00:09:00,160 --> 00:09:04,120 many they have for each day. And we had got people like, oh, 160 00:09:04,120 --> 00:09:05,520 where'd you get that? Where'd you get that? 161 00:09:05,520 --> 00:09:08,120 And told them where I was like, Oh yeah, I keep selling out. 162 00:09:08,120 --> 00:09:13,720 We can't find it. So there was a couple of places 163 00:09:13,720 --> 00:09:19,080 within DCA that you can mobile order the popcorn bucket and so 164 00:09:19,080 --> 00:09:23,360 we decided to mobile order it from Boardwalk Pasta, pizza and 165 00:09:23,360 --> 00:09:25,080 pasta it. Was one of our favorite places 166 00:09:25,080 --> 00:09:29,560 to eat anyway. And we mobile, so I mean, we 167 00:09:29,560 --> 00:09:34,160 didn't leave, we didn't leave home until like 10:30 in the 168 00:09:34,160 --> 00:09:37,920 morning that Friday. And so we mobile ordered it 169 00:09:38,280 --> 00:09:39,760 that. Morning for. 170 00:09:39,760 --> 00:09:43,000 Like 7:00 PM, like even though we're like hours away from the 171 00:09:43,000 --> 00:09:44,880 park, I was like let's just do it. 172 00:09:45,200 --> 00:09:48,880 And we were able to go walk up. I got it within 5 minutes. 173 00:09:49,360 --> 00:09:52,560 Whereas people were waiting in lines for hours. 174 00:09:52,600 --> 00:09:55,400 Oh my gosh, I saw a line on Sunday. 175 00:09:56,080 --> 00:09:59,040 Mobile Order. I saw a line on Sunday that was 176 00:09:59,040 --> 00:10:04,000 so long, like it was going down, like all down the pier, like 177 00:10:04,000 --> 00:10:06,880 Pixar pier. So I was really glad that we 178 00:10:06,880 --> 00:10:08,560 just got that over with because I was worried about. 179 00:10:09,280 --> 00:10:13,760 Food at Disneyland, you know that they're popular, they're on 180 00:10:13,760 --> 00:10:16,240 IG.

But but yeah, it was wow, it was 186 00:10:38,080 --> 00:10:40,160 crazy. So yeah, it's really cool. 187 00:10:40,720 --> 00:10:42,160 You haven't.

I'm stuck. 189 00:10:43,960 --> 00:10:46,240 Well, podcast people can't see it, but you can see it. 190 00:10:46,520 --> 00:10:49,480 Oh, we haven't, we did. We need to make a post about it 191 00:10:49,480 --> 00:10:51,200 'cause we got like footage of it when we got it. 192 00:10:51,200 --> 00:10:52,880 So we we'll, we'll post something. 193 00:10:52,880 --> 00:10:56,920 We got home Tuesday and it has been a very busy week. 194 00:10:56,920 --> 00:11:01,640 We had other events this week and so it's been, we've been 195 00:11:01,640 --> 00:11:06,120 like non-stop. So anyways, we'll, we'll get to 196 00:11:06,120 --> 00:11:11,560 it. But so yeah, so Friday we just 197 00:11:11,560 --> 00:11:17,200 went in for dinner and I don't even know if we did any rides. 198 00:11:17,200 --> 00:11:18,400 Did we do anything? In California, I. 199 00:11:18,400 --> 00:11:22,880 Think I think we did like jumping jellyfish and we. 200 00:11:24,160 --> 00:11:26,880 Did something else I forgot? I'm trying to see but it was 201 00:11:26,880 --> 00:11:31,680 just you know. We stayed at Pixar Place, so 202 00:11:31,680 --> 00:11:36,880 first time we've stayed up. When it was, what was it called? 203 00:11:36,880 --> 00:11:40,040 Paradise Pier. Paradise Pier before that 204 00:11:40,040 --> 00:11:45,720 multiple times, multiple times and first time you stayed up 205 00:11:45,720 --> 00:11:48,280 when you went on your soul trip, you stayed on it first time by 206 00:11:48,280 --> 00:11:50,520 yourself, first time as a family that we've gone. 207 00:11:51,080 --> 00:11:53,040 I love it. It's it's so cool. 208 00:11:53,040 --> 00:11:57,920 I love the theming. I love like the modern kind of 209 00:11:59,400 --> 00:12:05,000 classic Pixar feel to it. And the decorations are great. 210 00:12:05,000 --> 00:12:08,520 The rooms are great. Yeah, I thought I thought was 211 00:12:08,520 --> 00:12:10,360 really cool. So I know what we did. 212 00:12:11,120 --> 00:12:12,520 Oh, yeah. OK, one thing real quick about 213 00:12:12,520 --> 00:12:16,120 that, since we're on the hotel, the rooms are a little smaller 214 00:12:16,120 --> 00:12:18,040 than like Disneyland hotel rooms. 215 00:12:19,720 --> 00:12:21,000 We noticed that. I mean, they're still really 216 00:12:21,000 --> 00:12:25,320 nice, like and also they don't have a tub, it's just a shower. 217 00:12:25,720 --> 00:12:28,600 So if you have like a little kid that doesn't like showers, that 218 00:12:28,600 --> 00:12:31,200 could be a challenge for you because they only have a shower. 219 00:12:32,400 --> 00:12:34,760 The elevators have always been an issue there, but we didn't 220 00:12:34,760 --> 00:12:36,960 have too bad of an issue with it this time. 221 00:12:37,240 --> 00:12:39,600 I think it's because of early entry being gone. 222 00:12:39,600 --> 00:12:40,280 Yes. OK. 223 00:12:40,280 --> 00:12:42,360 So we need to talk about that. So. 224 00:12:42,360 --> 00:12:43,840 Well, hang on, let me finish Friday night. 225 00:12:43,840 --> 00:12:49,880 OK, so the pool is up on the 3rd floor on the roof at Pixar 226 00:12:49,880 --> 00:12:52,400 Place, so you can see the fireworks from there. 227 00:12:52,680 --> 00:12:56,080 They did say that they streamed in the music, but I just think 228 00:12:56,080 --> 00:12:58,440 it wasn't working 'cause you could hear it over from 229 00:12:58,440 --> 00:13:01,600 Disneyland Hotel. So 'cause it was really faint. 230 00:13:01,760 --> 00:13:03,640 But if it would have been louder, that would have been a 231 00:13:03,640 --> 00:13:05,040 nice 'cause we're like, let's go do that. 232 00:13:05,040 --> 00:13:07,200 Like we don't want to have too late of a night tonight, you 233 00:13:07,200 --> 00:13:08,800 know? It's just like going in for a 234 00:13:08,800 --> 00:13:11,520 bit. I got some ice cream at Salt and 235 00:13:11,520 --> 00:13:14,280 Straw in Downtown Disney and it was fantastic. 236 00:13:14,760 --> 00:13:20,600 It was fantastic. But they have like games out 237 00:13:20,600 --> 00:13:22,640 there. They have like shuffleboard and 238 00:13:22,720 --> 00:13:24,480 like chess. They didn't have a lot of the 239 00:13:24,480 --> 00:13:26,600 things out that night, but then another well. 240 00:13:26,600 --> 00:13:29,640 I think they take it out, they they put it, put it all away in 241 00:13:29,640 --> 00:13:30,920 the evening. Yeah. 242 00:13:31,040 --> 00:13:33,320 But if like for the fireworks, it would be kind of nice if they 243 00:13:33,320 --> 00:13:35,560 had a little more out there. But anyways, the pool was closed 244 00:13:35,560 --> 00:13:37,080 while we were there, but you could still go out. 245 00:13:37,360 --> 00:13:41,960 They have like a cornhole and shuffleboard and. 246 00:13:42,120 --> 00:13:44,840 Fire pits. Fire pits and you know, a little 247 00:13:44,840 --> 00:13:48,080 quick service there. So that's a lot nicer than what 248 00:13:48,080 --> 00:13:50,400 it was. Paradise Pier. 249 00:13:50,400 --> 00:13:52,360 It was just the pool. I don't even remember. 250 00:13:52,360 --> 00:13:54,480 There, No. Yeah, there wasn't a splash pad. 251 00:13:54,480 --> 00:13:58,760 There was a slide. Yes, there was a slide. 252 00:13:58,840 --> 00:14:01,040 Oh, pool. Pool is pretty small. 253 00:14:01,760 --> 00:14:04,000 But it wasn't actually, it did get kind of warm when we were 254 00:14:04,000 --> 00:14:07,200 there, but it wasn't like Florida where you could swim all 255 00:14:07,200 --> 00:14:10,720 year round like it, it was it, it was OK, this is, you know, 256 00:14:10,720 --> 00:14:15,280 February, but then, OK. So early entry. 257 00:14:15,520 --> 00:14:20,240 So we no longer have early entry if you stay on property at 258 00:14:20,240 --> 00:14:24,600 Disneyland, which was a bummer. Bummer is an understatement. 259 00:14:27,480 --> 00:14:31,840 So the first morning and I don't know. 260 00:14:31,840 --> 00:14:34,920 OK, so this was Saturday. So this was the day before the 261 00:14:34,920 --> 00:14:40,840 Super Bowl, the day before California Adventures 25th 262 00:14:40,840 --> 00:14:42,400 anniversary. That was the 8th. 263 00:14:42,760 --> 00:14:44,400 This on Sunday, this was Saturday. 264 00:14:44,800 --> 00:14:48,280 We were going to Disneyland. What we noticed, what time did 265 00:14:48,280 --> 00:14:51,320 we leave the room? OK, we left at 7:00. 266 00:14:51,360 --> 00:14:53,920 We left our room at 7:00, 'cause we were like, what is it we 267 00:14:53,920 --> 00:14:55,560 were? Ahead of schedule we were. 268 00:14:55,720 --> 00:14:58,600 Ahead of schedule. 'Cause we're used to early 269 00:14:58,600 --> 00:15:00,000 entry. I think the kids are just 270 00:15:00,000 --> 00:15:01,480 getting older and so it's easier. 271 00:15:01,480 --> 00:15:03,560 We don't have to be on them as much about getting ready, like 272 00:15:03,560 --> 00:15:09,920 they get ready. And so like what we immediately 273 00:15:09,920 --> 00:15:15,000 noticed was there was like no line of security at 7:00. 274 00:15:15,040 --> 00:15:19,760 So this is seven O 7 my video. We're walking up to security. 275 00:15:20,120 --> 00:15:25,840 Normally you would have people lined up from Pixar Place and 276 00:15:25,840 --> 00:15:28,680 from Disneyland Hotel. No line. 277 00:15:29,080 --> 00:15:32,360 Yes, because security opens up at 7 and but. 278 00:15:32,360 --> 00:15:35,200 People are usually lining up before that for early entry. 279 00:15:35,200 --> 00:15:37,960 For early entry, but yeah, but yeah, now there's no early 280 00:15:37,960 --> 00:15:41,640 entry, so people don't have an incentive to line up for that. 281 00:15:42,280 --> 00:15:46,600 And so we were like, oh, this is like, this is interesting. 282 00:15:46,600 --> 00:15:47,600 Like, what is this going to be like? 283 00:15:47,600 --> 00:15:50,360 And then walking through Downtown Disney, it was not like 284 00:15:50,360 --> 00:15:52,760 there was not as many people as normal like. 285 00:15:53,000 --> 00:15:55,520 It was busier the other days in the morning. 286 00:15:56,360 --> 00:15:57,640 You're getting to that. OK, get to. 287 00:15:58,440 --> 00:16:05,240 That when we get to tomorrow or the next day, I mean Sunday and 288 00:16:05,240 --> 00:16:07,640 then even once we got into Disneyland, we were like up 289 00:16:07,640 --> 00:16:11,400 against like we went, we were going to rope drop Indiana 290 00:16:11,400 --> 00:16:13,560 Jones, Indiana Jones, which we've never done, but we were 291 00:16:13,560 --> 00:16:15,000 like, let's try something a little different. 292 00:16:15,000 --> 00:16:16,720 We don't like we don't have early entry. 293 00:16:17,040 --> 00:16:20,680 Rise is closed. We're getting splash, splash, 294 00:16:20,680 --> 00:16:27,920 we're getting lightning lane. So we can always get a selection 295 00:16:27,920 --> 00:16:32,080 for Space Mountain, where usually a selection for Space 296 00:16:32,080 --> 00:16:37,360 Mountain is earlier where Indiana Jones Lightning lane 297 00:16:37,360 --> 00:16:41,280 times get it's harder to get pushed out those those are more 298 00:16:41,280 --> 00:16:43,080 popular. So I was like, why don't we try 299 00:16:43,080 --> 00:16:46,680 getting, Why don't we try rope dropping Indiana Jones? 300 00:16:47,160 --> 00:16:50,160 And that way we can get a lightning lane early for Space 301 00:16:50,160 --> 00:16:52,840 Mountain and then we can start churning because we were going 302 00:16:52,840 --> 00:16:55,360 to stack for later in the day. But then we remember that you 303 00:16:55,360 --> 00:16:57,800 had to leave the park around 2:30 or three to go to the 304 00:16:57,800 --> 00:17:00,240 panel. And so I was like, sure, or 305 00:17:00,240 --> 00:17:02,520 stacking for later in the day won't work because you're not 306 00:17:02,520 --> 00:17:04,640 going to be with us. So let's churn. 307 00:17:06,359 --> 00:17:09,640 So you we went and we were like up almost to the rope. 308 00:17:09,640 --> 00:17:14,599 Like there were not that many people this day at rope drop. 309 00:17:14,599 --> 00:17:19,079 Well, at this time, so we were. By the time I met at there's a 310 00:17:19,079 --> 00:17:22,160 whole other issue I like. I had some issues with their 311 00:17:22,160 --> 00:17:27,920 with their tickets and our passes so I had to go to guest 312 00:17:27,920 --> 00:17:33,080 services but by the time I got to you guys, which was like 5 313 00:17:33,080 --> 00:17:36,320 minutes before opening, it was pretty crowded. 314 00:17:36,400 --> 00:17:40,640 So we're walking up to Adventureland at 7:33 and 315 00:17:40,640 --> 00:17:45,440 there's, you know, maybe what 20-30 people like. 316 00:17:45,440 --> 00:17:47,840 Not not bad. But then, yeah, by the time, 317 00:17:48,480 --> 00:17:52,720 yeah, it was packed. So I decided with Indiana Jones, 318 00:17:52,720 --> 00:17:56,160 if you are a worlder and you've never been to Disneyland, even 319 00:17:56,160 --> 00:17:59,000 when you have a Lightning Lane, it's a long line. 320 00:17:59,240 --> 00:18:02,280 Yeah, like it it. It's still just. 321 00:18:02,520 --> 00:18:05,840 It's just how the the cue is made on that ride. 322 00:18:05,840 --> 00:18:09,840 It's like it's just so no, even if you had Lightning Lane, 323 00:18:10,120 --> 00:18:13,480 you're still even with Lightning Lane, you're waiting at least 20 324 00:18:13,480 --> 00:18:16,000 minutes. Yeah, yeah, even with Lightning 325 00:18:16,000 --> 00:18:18,280 Lane, it's just the way that that line is made. 326 00:18:18,440 --> 00:18:25,680 Yeah, so I decided I don't really need to 'cause our 327 00:18:25,680 --> 00:18:27,040 daughter isn't going to ride it, right? 328 00:18:27,040 --> 00:18:30,120 She technically she can. I is it 40 inches? 329 00:18:30,280 --> 00:18:31,040 I think it is. I believe so. 330 00:18:31,040 --> 00:18:35,320 Or is it 42? Anyways, she OK, but she no way. 331 00:18:35,520 --> 00:18:38,400 No way. So I'm like, you know what? 332 00:18:38,400 --> 00:18:41,360 I don't want to take up the time to do it honestly, like him. 333 00:18:41,360 --> 00:18:43,320 And I want to do a trip in the next couple of months. 334 00:18:43,320 --> 00:18:45,080 Just us. It's taller. 335 00:18:45,080 --> 00:18:47,040 OK. I thought maybe it was like 42 336 00:18:47,040 --> 00:18:51,640 or so, So maybe she can't. But even if she could, no way. 337 00:18:52,160 --> 00:18:56,720 So I was like, you guys go, I'll take her on Jungle Cruise. 338 00:18:56,800 --> 00:19:00,800 We were the first, we, we were like the third people on the 339 00:19:00,800 --> 00:19:02,480 boat. We were on the first boat. 340 00:19:02,800 --> 00:19:06,960 So if you ever want to get on a ride fast in Disneyland, rope 341 00:19:06,960 --> 00:19:13,960 drop Jungle cruise.

Oh yeah, something. 415 00:23:17,760 --> 00:23:22,200 Like that, it's like a Buffalo sauce, which I am not a huge 416 00:23:22,200 --> 00:23:26,040 Buffalo sauce fan, but it was good. 417 00:23:26,240 --> 00:23:29,280 It was spicy. It was spicy, but it came with 418 00:23:29,280 --> 00:23:32,840 like a baked Mac and cheese side that was really good. 419 00:23:34,040 --> 00:23:36,200 So if you like Buffalo, if you like spicy, if you like 420 00:23:36,200 --> 00:23:38,480 beignets, this was a good sandwich. 421 00:23:38,520 --> 00:23:42,000 I had like coleslaw and. It was really good. 422 00:23:42,200 --> 00:23:47,880 No, I realized that this whole trip I think I for lunch, I 423 00:23:47,920 --> 00:23:52,040 think I had chicken strips like every single day, which. 424 00:23:52,240 --> 00:23:53,880 And one of the times I think you got a kids meal. 425 00:23:54,120 --> 00:23:57,600 I one of the times I'd at Pym's Tess Kitchen, I got a kids meal 426 00:23:57,760 --> 00:24:01,160 because I wasn't really hungry. I was kind of like, by the end 427 00:24:01,160 --> 00:24:03,840 of our trip, I was kind of like, I'm bloated, I can't eat 428 00:24:03,840 --> 00:24:05,920 anymore. But. 429 00:24:06,160 --> 00:24:10,680 It happens. Yeah, I'm pretty sure I had 430 00:24:10,680 --> 00:24:14,680 chicken strips because one, they're cheap and it's like I 431 00:24:14,680 --> 00:24:18,800 just didn't feel like anything else and but Golden. 432 00:24:19,320 --> 00:24:21,120 Is it golden? It's not Golden Corral. 433 00:24:21,800 --> 00:24:25,760 Horseshoe Corral always mix up the name of this. 434 00:24:26,480 --> 00:24:28,160 Golden Horseshoe. Golden Horseshoe. 435 00:24:29,400 --> 00:24:30,360 Something like that. It's. 436 00:24:30,800 --> 00:24:33,600 The same one they had at the royal window at Pirates? 437 00:24:33,640 --> 00:24:35,200 I don't know. I never had that one. 438 00:24:35,760 --> 00:24:42,280 But anyways, they have they not have like this sauced version of 439 00:24:42,800 --> 00:24:45,040 chicken strips. So you can get them like, you 440 00:24:45,040 --> 00:24:47,240 know, covered in different sauces. 441 00:24:47,640 --> 00:24:52,280 And so I got the hot honey chicken strips. 442 00:24:52,760 --> 00:24:57,000 It was really good. Like it was like if you ever 443 00:24:57,000 --> 00:25:01,520 been to Chili's, if you ever been to Chili's and got the 444 00:25:01,520 --> 00:25:05,000 honey Chipotle chicken and crispers, it's like the exact 445 00:25:05,000 --> 00:25:10,520 same thing but Disneyland version and it is it's really 446 00:25:10,520 --> 00:25:11,920 good. So if you like chicken strips 447 00:25:11,920 --> 00:25:14,200 and you like the sauces, you want to, you know, change it up 448 00:25:14,200 --> 00:25:18,600 a little bit is really good. I did get somewhere else. 449 00:25:18,600 --> 00:25:21,600 Oh flows. So this isn't the next day hang. 450 00:25:21,640 --> 00:25:25,840 On I'm going to turn off the filter because Sprinkles isn't 451 00:25:25,840 --> 00:25:30,400 here to make fun of you and oh, you're getting my eyelashes. 452 00:25:30,520 --> 00:25:38,000 OK, there we go the next day and and DCA we went to flows and 453 00:25:38,000 --> 00:25:40,200 they had a teriyaki one not as good. 454 00:25:40,520 --> 00:25:46,000 So just in case you know, but yes, I I ate like a 5 year old. 455 00:25:46,040 --> 00:25:51,320 This entire trip, that's OK. Their chicken strips are good. 456 00:25:51,680 --> 00:25:53,080 They're good. And the boys wanted them like 457 00:25:53,080 --> 00:25:56,600 every time. And yeah, so then we did the 458 00:25:56,600 --> 00:25:58,040 Mark Twain. My daughter really wanted to go 459 00:25:58,040 --> 00:25:59,400 on the Mark Twain or the pirate ship. 460 00:25:59,400 --> 00:26:01,400 She wanted to go on either one. And the Mark Twain was coming up 461 00:26:01,400 --> 00:26:04,320 next. So you and two of the boys went 462 00:26:04,320 --> 00:26:07,360 on because again, we, as soon as we checked into whatever, I 463 00:26:07,360 --> 00:26:09,040 think it was Star Tours. It was Star Tours. 464 00:26:09,040 --> 00:26:15,240 I think it doesn't matter. I hate when they get rid of good 465 00:26:15,240 --> 00:26:19,840 food. Right we were. 466 00:26:19,840 --> 00:26:22,840 We turned another one. So we we got a a Big Thunder 467 00:26:22,840 --> 00:26:24,800 Mountain for a little farther so we could go get lunch. 468 00:26:25,160 --> 00:26:29,320 Got lunch.

But anyways, oh, so this was a 499 00:28:10,480 --> 00:28:17,600 first for us. So once again, once again, we 500 00:28:18,120 --> 00:28:19,640 none of our kids wanted to go on Tianas. 501 00:28:20,440 --> 00:28:22,680 So last summer when we were there, none of our kids wanted 502 00:28:22,680 --> 00:28:24,320 to go on Tianas. None of our kids love getting 503 00:28:24,320 --> 00:28:26,200 wet. I bring ponchos. 504 00:28:26,200 --> 00:28:28,160 You guys, I am not one of those ones that like you shouldn't. 505 00:28:28,160 --> 00:28:29,800 You're going on a water ride. You should. 506 00:28:30,200 --> 00:28:32,720 You're going to get wet and like get irritated when people wear 507 00:28:32,720 --> 00:28:34,560 ponchos. There are people with sensory 508 00:28:34,560 --> 00:28:36,000 issues. There are people that love the 509 00:28:36,000 --> 00:28:38,240 ride, but maybe they have a problem being wet. 510 00:28:38,240 --> 00:28:40,480 That's OK. They can wear a poncho. 511 00:28:40,880 --> 00:28:43,160 Sometimes I don't wear a poncho. Sometimes I do. 512 00:28:43,240 --> 00:28:46,000 Sometimes I just did my hair and you guys, I wash my hair once or 513 00:28:46,000 --> 00:28:47,360 twice a week. I don't want to do my hair 514 00:28:47,360 --> 00:28:52,040 again, so I'm wearing a poncho. Sometimes I will. 515 00:28:52,040 --> 00:28:55,480 It's in the winter and I love that ride and in California it's 516 00:28:55,480 --> 00:28:58,240 cold and I don't want to be drenched and cold. 517 00:28:58,400 --> 00:29:03,680 I might wear a poncho.

I was like, I told her oldest, 541 00:30:19,640 --> 00:30:20,960 let her watch Bluey on your phone. 542 00:30:21,280 --> 00:30:23,360 Get her to watch Bluey. We give her a lollipop, She's 543 00:30:23,360 --> 00:30:24,160 good. OK, let's go. 544 00:30:25,080 --> 00:30:26,920 And then she. Let us and then she let us do it 545 00:30:26,920 --> 00:30:29,920 a few more times in the trip, but this was the first time. 546 00:30:30,840 --> 00:30:35,160 And so we get up to it and, and I see, I can see who where he's 547 00:30:35,160 --> 00:30:37,080 putting people and I'm like, Oh my gosh, we're going to get the 548 00:30:37,080 --> 00:30:38,440 front. We're going to get the front. 549 00:30:38,800 --> 00:30:42,680 And so he asks though the cast members like, OK, one and two, 550 00:30:42,680 --> 00:30:45,360 unless you want the back. And I was like, let's go for it. 551 00:30:45,360 --> 00:30:47,520 I had a poncho. I had a poncho. 552 00:30:47,520 --> 00:30:49,280 Yolo. And I was. 553 00:30:49,280 --> 00:30:52,520 Yolo. To someone who wants it, someone 554 00:30:52,520 --> 00:30:55,840 always wants it. Yes, yes. 555 00:30:55,840 --> 00:30:58,840 So yes, we said we're like, you know, you want him to take you 556 00:30:58,840 --> 00:31:00,240 on poo. And at that point she didn't 557 00:31:00,240 --> 00:31:03,840 want to. So we were like, OK, just stay 558 00:31:03,840 --> 00:31:06,800 here. And she was fine. 559 00:31:07,120 --> 00:31:09,680 And we had a lightning lane, so we weren't like in line that 560 00:31:09,680 --> 00:31:11,680 long. We were in the front row. 561 00:31:12,880 --> 00:31:16,000 One and two. I haven't been in the front row 562 00:31:16,000 --> 00:31:18,760 in a very long time. I have never been in the front 563 00:31:18,760 --> 00:31:19,560 row. Yes, you have. 564 00:31:19,960 --> 00:31:21,520 I have. OK, well, not the front row, but 565 00:31:21,520 --> 00:31:24,280 you've been in two. OK, because our our very first 566 00:31:24,280 --> 00:31:27,320 trip when we after we got married, it was Splash Mountain, 567 00:31:27,320 --> 00:31:29,960 but we were in one and two. I have pictures because I got a 568 00:31:29,960 --> 00:31:34,440 wave over my head and I got drenched head to toe and I was 569 00:31:34,440 --> 00:31:39,000 wearing tighter jeans and I was very uncomfortable for the rest 570 00:31:39,000 --> 00:31:46,000 of the day. So people have said like, oh, I 571 00:31:46,000 --> 00:31:49,120 think Tiana's you get more. More what? 572 00:31:49,520 --> 00:31:53,600 And there's some people that say, no, it's the same I, we, 573 00:31:53,600 --> 00:31:56,440 we. Several times if I wouldn't have 574 00:31:56,440 --> 00:31:58,840 been wearing a poncho, well, even I was wearing a poncho, 575 00:31:59,080 --> 00:32:01,840 several times it went over my head. 576 00:32:02,200 --> 00:32:04,480 The the. The like at least three. 577 00:32:04,520 --> 00:32:08,360 The drop that's inside the ride, so not the the main drop, the 578 00:32:08,680 --> 00:32:11,040 drop at the end. The drop is in the middle when 579 00:32:11,040 --> 00:32:12,520 you're like when you shrink down. 580 00:32:13,880 --> 00:32:18,320 Yeah, in the dark. That splash is way bigger than 581 00:32:18,320 --> 00:32:21,600 the one at the very end. Like you know, you go, you go 582 00:32:21,600 --> 00:32:23,840 down and you go up the hill and then you come down again. 583 00:32:24,360 --> 00:32:28,720 Like I saw the water go over our head it like. 584 00:32:29,960 --> 00:32:34,680 It and I had to take my poncho and like roll the water because 585 00:32:34,680 --> 00:32:40,120 I had like puddles of like a pool of water in my poncho. 586 00:32:41,720 --> 00:32:44,920 And that happened multiple type, like at least three, if not four 587 00:32:44,920 --> 00:32:50,120 times because it two big ones, two big ones. 588 00:32:51,000 --> 00:32:53,640 So I was so grateful that I had a poncho because even though I 589 00:32:53,640 --> 00:32:56,120 don't mind getting wet on some right, I would have been, it 590 00:32:56,120 --> 00:32:59,920 would have looked like I jumped in a pool, like I would have 591 00:32:59,920 --> 00:33:03,280 been completely drenched. Like I had my, I had my backpack 592 00:33:03,280 --> 00:33:06,200 like on my lap, like on my chest, like in front of me. 593 00:33:06,640 --> 00:33:11,240 And there was like an outline of my backpack when we got off. 594 00:33:11,240 --> 00:33:14,640 It's like everything else was drenching wet except where my 595 00:33:14,640 --> 00:33:17,280 backpack was. And everything in my, not 596 00:33:17,280 --> 00:33:20,720 everything in my, in my backpack was wet, but my backpack was 597 00:33:20,720 --> 00:33:23,120 like drenched. Yeah, yeah. 598 00:33:23,520 --> 00:33:27,840 But I've never, I've never gotten that wet on that ride, 599 00:33:27,920 --> 00:33:31,400 ever. Yeah, but it was cool because we 600 00:33:31,400 --> 00:33:35,840 got to go and our oldest watched our youngest and she allowed it. 601 00:33:36,600 --> 00:33:39,120 Yes, she allowed it. You heard me right. 602 00:33:39,360 --> 00:33:40,560 Is she in charge? Kind of. 603 00:33:42,720 --> 00:33:44,400 Oh, that's a good idea Disney cowgirl. 604 00:33:44,400 --> 00:33:47,080 I always switch to Crocs before I go on. 605 00:33:47,440 --> 00:33:51,120 That is a good We are talking about Tiana's in Disneyland. 606 00:33:52,320 --> 00:33:54,840 We were in one and two rows, one and two that is. 607 00:33:54,840 --> 00:33:58,960 I don't have any Crocs Gina, but I might buy some just for 608 00:33:58,960 --> 00:34:03,040 Tiana's. But it was. 609 00:34:03,040 --> 00:34:04,160 I love it. I love it. 610 00:34:04,200 --> 00:34:07,680 I mean, I miss Splash, but I do. I still love the ride. 611 00:34:08,960 --> 00:34:13,199 So it was after that that I you left. 612 00:34:13,199 --> 00:34:15,719 I left. I parted a ways because I needed 613 00:34:15,719 --> 00:34:22,400 to go check in for the DCA panel, which was AD 23 Spotlight 614 00:34:22,400 --> 00:34:29,040 series, which was to go into detail about the opening and the 615 00:34:30,080 --> 00:34:34,960 the conception of DCA for the 25th anniversary. 616 00:34:36,199 --> 00:34:38,080 And so it was at the Disneyland Hotel. 617 00:34:38,639 --> 00:34:44,840 And so, yeah, so I have a lot of notes about this. 618 00:34:45,120 --> 00:34:47,239 We might need to do in just another podcast about it. 619 00:34:47,239 --> 00:34:49,320 Yeah. Maybe next week is about it. 620 00:34:49,440 --> 00:34:50,920 Yeah. I may just go through some of 621 00:34:50,920 --> 00:34:54,320 like the highlights, but maybe next week we can go into detail 622 00:34:54,320 --> 00:34:58,600 about because it there it was, it was 1 panel with two parts. 623 00:35:00,000 --> 00:35:04,920 So, so anyways, so I took the monorail back to these to 624 00:35:04,920 --> 00:35:09,040 Disneyland hotel and I didn't think my shoes were wet. 625 00:35:09,640 --> 00:35:12,640 But by the end I was like, my feet feel like really cold. 626 00:35:12,640 --> 00:35:15,320 And when I got back to the hotel afterwards, like my feet were 627 00:35:15,320 --> 00:35:22,000 like drenched.

You got to go into World of 654 00:36:48,640 --> 00:36:53,920 Colour that night and get the do the dessert party in addition to 655 00:36:53,920 --> 00:36:56,760 the panel, which I didn't do because we were already there, 656 00:36:57,120 --> 00:36:59,360 but. If we didn't have kids, Yeah. 657 00:36:59,560 --> 00:37:00,920 Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait. 658 00:37:00,920 --> 00:37:05,200 Back up, back up.

No, no. 662 00:37:11,240 --> 00:37:13,240 Oh, just you could have. No, it was a. 663 00:37:13,240 --> 00:37:15,360 It was. There's two different packages 664 00:37:15,600 --> 00:37:18,040 there was the panel only. Oh, OK. 665 00:37:18,440 --> 00:37:21,680 And then the other package, which was more expensive was the 666 00:37:21,680 --> 00:37:25,520 panel plus the world of color dessert dessert party for. 667 00:37:25,520 --> 00:37:29,400 That you didn't. Have to have a park ticket to 668 00:37:29,400 --> 00:37:33,920 go. You got escorted into DC. 669 00:37:34,320 --> 00:37:37,280 OK, I thought I was. I wasn't really listening when 670 00:37:37,280 --> 00:37:40,640 you were first talking. Such as life. 671 00:37:42,680 --> 00:37:47,120 So anyways, so the, I'm not going to go into full detail 672 00:37:47,120 --> 00:37:50,920 about the panel because there's lots of great Nuggets from this, 673 00:37:50,920 --> 00:37:57,520 but the, the history of DCA and, and how things came about, which 674 00:37:57,520 --> 00:37:58,720 I thought was really interesting. 675 00:37:58,880 --> 00:38:02,160 So it was all about the history. They didn't go into anything 676 00:38:02,160 --> 00:38:05,040 about what's coming. They didn't go into Avatar. 677 00:38:05,040 --> 00:38:08,200 They didn't go into, they touched on Avengers Campus a 678 00:38:08,200 --> 00:38:14,040 little bit, but they showed some concept artwork from those two 679 00:38:14,040 --> 00:38:18,240 new additions coming. They were very strict about no 680 00:38:18,240 --> 00:38:22,880 cameras, very strict about no recording 'cause there was a lot 681 00:38:22,880 --> 00:38:25,400 of concept art that's never been released to the public. 682 00:38:25,800 --> 00:38:28,920 So they're cracking down on that. 683 00:38:28,920 --> 00:38:33,280 So don't have anything to share from that, but I did take lots 684 00:38:33,280 --> 00:38:37,920 and lots of notes. So it was broken into two parts. 685 00:38:37,920 --> 00:38:43,360 So the the first half the panel was the the imagineers who 686 00:38:43,600 --> 00:38:48,600 conceptualized DCA when it first opened in 2001. 687 00:38:48,600 --> 00:38:52,640 And then the second panel, second part where the Imagineers 688 00:38:52,640 --> 00:38:58,920 who reimagined DCA, which feels bad because the the first panel 689 00:38:58,920 --> 00:39:02,480 are going about all like the the ideas and and concepts that went 690 00:39:02,480 --> 00:39:06,280 into DCA and how much thought and effort they went into it. 691 00:39:06,440 --> 00:39:09,320 And the second Imagineers came in and changed everything. 692 00:39:09,520 --> 00:39:15,240 Everything and like honestly like made so much of it better. 693 00:39:15,360 --> 00:39:17,960 But but when they were explaining like the idea and the 694 00:39:17,960 --> 00:39:20,160 concepts, you said, oh, that makes sense and that's pretty 695 00:39:20,160 --> 00:39:26,360 cool. So the the first panel was, I'll 696 00:39:26,360 --> 00:39:30,440 name off the names here was Barry Braverman who was the 697 00:39:30,480 --> 00:39:34,720 executive who helped shape the original version of Disney 698 00:39:34,720 --> 00:39:39,520 California Adventure. Tim Delaney who was the concept 699 00:39:39,520 --> 00:39:46,440 designer of DCA. Rick Rothschild was the show 700 00:39:46,440 --> 00:39:51,200 producer for Sauron and Condor Flats Door. 701 00:39:51,240 --> 00:39:54,680 Flats. Greg Emmer, who was a show 702 00:39:54,680 --> 00:39:56,840 producer who helped build Grizzly Peak. 703 00:39:58,000 --> 00:40:01,400 Kathy. Kathy Magnum, who was executive 704 00:40:01,400 --> 00:40:06,080 producer of DC as original Made in California experiences. 705 00:40:06,080 --> 00:40:10,800 I don't remember that. So that's because it didn't last 706 00:40:10,800 --> 00:40:13,240 very long 'cause it got replaced by Bugs Land. 707 00:40:15,080 --> 00:40:16,400 Then maybe I never even went to it. 708 00:40:16,720 --> 00:40:22,400 So, so real brief. So Michael Eisner was the CEO at 709 00:40:22,400 --> 00:40:28,440 the time and he, he wanted to expand Disneyland and they 710 00:40:28,440 --> 00:40:32,080 wanted to make it more as make Disneyland more like a resort 711 00:40:32,080 --> 00:40:36,400 like Disney World. So that involved adding another 712 00:40:36,400 --> 00:40:38,960 park. And so they went on it. 713 00:40:39,080 --> 00:40:43,520 He invited Imagineers, creative executives, concept artists, all 714 00:40:43,600 --> 00:40:47,760 on a retreat to Aspen in the summer of 1995. 715 00:40:50,480 --> 00:40:54,120 Aspen. Our pets heads are falling off. 716 00:40:54,640 --> 00:40:58,640 A little place A. Little. 717 00:40:59,080 --> 00:41:05,240 Place called. ASPN So he said, you know, let's 718 00:41:05,240 --> 00:41:08,840 get together and let's come up with an idea and whatever idea, 719 00:41:08,840 --> 00:41:11,200 we're going to come up with one idea out of this. 720 00:41:11,600 --> 00:41:15,720 And they came out without, they came well, with four. 721 00:41:16,680 --> 00:41:22,680 One was a aquatic theme park that was going to be modeled 722 00:41:22,680 --> 00:41:32,480 after Long Beach Route 66, a seasons slash holidays type park 723 00:41:32,880 --> 00:41:35,960 that would different, like that different part, different lands, 724 00:41:39,600 --> 00:41:43,400 you know, represent different seasons, different holidays of 725 00:41:43,400 --> 00:41:45,520 the year. And then California. 726 00:41:45,920 --> 00:41:49,120 And and so California was picked because it had all like the 727 00:41:49,120 --> 00:41:53,400 different elements of of something that they want to do, 728 00:41:53,400 --> 00:41:59,280 like a smaller Hollywood Studios nostalgic beachfront amusement 729 00:41:59,280 --> 00:42:01,800 park and things made in California. 730 00:42:03,200 --> 00:42:04,880 Yeah. And so I. 731 00:42:04,880 --> 00:42:08,320 Think it's fantastic? The the park was, I love it was 732 00:42:08,320 --> 00:42:10,680 themed after the California dream. 733 00:42:11,160 --> 00:42:15,560 So you know, the aspirational history of California people 734 00:42:15,560 --> 00:42:21,560 coming, not just the scenery, but the innovation and invention 735 00:42:21,560 --> 00:42:25,440 of people who live here. So they go into a little bit 736 00:42:25,440 --> 00:42:28,160 about that. What was really interesting, 737 00:42:28,160 --> 00:42:32,680 they wanted a lot of detail about the entrance of DCA and 738 00:42:32,680 --> 00:42:35,880 how much thought and conception went into that. 739 00:42:35,880 --> 00:42:37,480 What? Do you want to make this an 740 00:42:37,480 --> 00:42:39,000 extra? A separate podcast. 741 00:42:39,720 --> 00:42:41,560 Well, I just want to touch on this and then I'm going to skip 742 00:42:41,560 --> 00:42:46,040 ahead. OK, go ahead. 743 00:42:46,040 --> 00:42:46,920 Go ahead. Go ahead. 744 00:42:47,240 --> 00:42:48,680 No, go ahead. Touch on this. 745 00:42:48,680 --> 00:42:55,880 OK, so they they, they now you made me lose my train of 746 00:42:55,880 --> 00:42:58,400 thought. I'm sorry, now you know how I 747 00:42:58,440 --> 00:43:02,240 feel with everybody's comments making me lose my train of 748 00:43:02,240 --> 00:43:04,880 thought. I'm just kidding. 749 00:43:05,320 --> 00:43:09,280 So I love your comments. A couple of ideas that they were 750 00:43:09,280 --> 00:43:11,960 going to make the entrance. They wanted to make it like 751 00:43:11,960 --> 00:43:15,320 you're entering into a freeway and they're like, no. 752 00:43:15,920 --> 00:43:18,080 That's. That's not a good idea. 753 00:43:18,080 --> 00:43:21,680 Let's not do that. Another idea was a Redwood 754 00:43:21,680 --> 00:43:25,320 forest, the walk in through like a Redwood forest, but they 755 00:43:25,320 --> 00:43:27,240 couldn't do it because they didn't have the budget or the 756 00:43:27,240 --> 00:43:28,720 time to do it. Oh. 757 00:43:28,800 --> 00:43:31,320 Yeah, that I'm sure would have been if they would have been 758 00:43:31,320 --> 00:43:32,520 real trees. Too. 759 00:43:33,040 --> 00:43:37,640 Oh, and when they when they decided to build the California 760 00:43:37,640 --> 00:43:42,040 adventure, they they set parameters around them building 761 00:43:42,040 --> 00:43:47,000 it because they only had three years to build it. 762 00:43:47,520 --> 00:43:48,840 Really. Why? 763 00:43:49,360 --> 00:43:51,360 Well, it's just 'cause they wanted to open as soon as 764 00:43:51,360 --> 00:43:54,000 possible, so they well. That's more than double what 765 00:43:54,000 --> 00:43:55,800 they did Disneyland. They didn't start building until 766 00:43:55,800 --> 00:43:59,240 1998, and they're also limited by budget, so they couldn't 767 00:43:59,240 --> 00:44:01,960 build a berm around it like they did Disneyland. 768 00:44:01,960 --> 00:44:05,040 So there's nothing to block out the outside world. 769 00:44:05,520 --> 00:44:06,760 Yeah. So they couldn't do that. 770 00:44:07,160 --> 00:44:10,720 All the rides had to become off the shelf, meaning they can't 771 00:44:10,720 --> 00:44:14,440 invent new ride rides. Because of budget, Because. 772 00:44:14,440 --> 00:44:17,200 Of budget and time so they can only borrow from things that 773 00:44:17,200 --> 00:44:23,400 have already been made and repurpose them and they also 774 00:44:23,400 --> 00:44:29,000 want to plan for future future expansion so leave spaces that 775 00:44:29,000 --> 00:44:31,840 where they could actually build new things or repurpose them. 776 00:44:33,720 --> 00:44:40,880 So so yeah so the entrance that but then said they they decided 777 00:44:40,880 --> 00:44:43,280 to they fell on like a 3D postcard. 778 00:44:43,920 --> 00:44:47,000 So you have, you know, if you remember that the original 779 00:44:47,000 --> 00:44:50,200 entrance, you had the California letters that stretched across 780 00:44:50,520 --> 00:44:54,120 and they had the Golden Gate Bridge and then you had this, 781 00:44:54,520 --> 00:44:58,600 the sun kind of the sun, the sun between that and he had the 782 00:44:58,600 --> 00:45:01,160 monorail going through. So they, they took like a 783 00:45:01,160 --> 00:45:04,000 postcard that you would see about California and made it 784 00:45:04,000 --> 00:45:07,960 like 3D like, and that was like the portal that you walk through 785 00:45:08,400 --> 00:45:14,000 to get into the park. Fun fact, the Mickey and Friends 786 00:45:14,000 --> 00:45:17,600 parking structure that they built for this 'cause they built 787 00:45:17,600 --> 00:45:21,080 Mickey and Friends parking garage for Disney California 788 00:45:21,080 --> 00:45:24,480 Adventure OK was once the largest parking garage in the 789 00:45:24,480 --> 00:45:27,840 whole world. Wow. 790 00:45:27,920 --> 00:45:30,000 When they built it, it was the largest parking garage. 791 00:45:30,720 --> 00:45:33,480 Wow. They went a lot of detail about 792 00:45:33,480 --> 00:45:35,120 Soren. I'll skip that. 793 00:45:36,000 --> 00:45:37,360 So go. Back to it next week in the 794 00:45:37,360 --> 00:45:45,040 podcast. Yeah, so panel 2 was another 795 00:45:45,960 --> 00:45:49,840 list of Imagineers. Lots of notes you. 796 00:45:50,080 --> 00:45:55,560 Guys, yeah, so much stuff. I'm just going to go to so World 797 00:45:55,560 --> 00:45:57,400 of color. I thought this was really 798 00:45:57,400 --> 00:45:58,880 interesting. Love world of color. 799 00:45:58,880 --> 00:46:04,440 So they, they came up with the idea, they knew they had this 800 00:46:04,440 --> 00:46:09,760 lagoon that they could use and they actually built that. 801 00:46:09,880 --> 00:46:13,400 They, when they originally built TCA, they knew they want to do 802 00:46:13,680 --> 00:46:17,200 some type of water show, but they didn't have the technology 803 00:46:17,200 --> 00:46:19,800 or the ideas of like what we could use it, but let's just 804 00:46:19,800 --> 00:46:21,800 create this because we know we can use it in the future. 805 00:46:22,680 --> 00:46:30,520 So they, they had this lagoon to use and they, they pitched. 806 00:46:30,520 --> 00:46:34,280 So Bob Iger was the CEO at the time and they, they pitched it 807 00:46:34,280 --> 00:46:40,080 up to them as, as you know, this water show. 808 00:46:40,720 --> 00:46:43,880 And they assumed it was like, OK, this is too expensive. 809 00:46:44,480 --> 00:46:47,800 This technology has never been developed before. 810 00:46:48,760 --> 00:46:51,600 And so they when they were pitching it to him, they're 811 00:46:51,600 --> 00:46:52,800 like, this isn't going to happen. 812 00:46:52,800 --> 00:46:55,560 He's going to say no, but he says just one word. 813 00:46:55,560 --> 00:47:00,440 He says when, when can we do it? Wait, Bob Iger? 814 00:47:00,440 --> 00:47:03,240 Bob Iger said that so he. Said Bob Iger loved it so much. 815 00:47:03,240 --> 00:47:08,240 He's like, when can we do this? And they're like, I guess soon. 816 00:47:09,360 --> 00:47:15,320 So they had to develop all the technologies of the fountains, 817 00:47:15,560 --> 00:47:19,440 the lights, everything. Like all this technology has 818 00:47:19,440 --> 00:47:23,440 never been developed before. The only other fountain show 819 00:47:23,440 --> 00:47:29,720 that existed was the Bellagio in Las Vegas and so Which? 820 00:47:29,720 --> 00:47:34,160 Is funny because when we went to when we were in Vegas, we said 821 00:47:34,160 --> 00:47:37,680 we're like, it's like a poor man's world of color, World of 822 00:47:37,680 --> 00:47:42,080 color on Timo. And they said the the most, the 823 00:47:42,080 --> 00:47:48,400 most stressful and complicated technology of world of color is 824 00:47:48,400 --> 00:47:52,160 just the raising and lowering of the fountains out of the water. 825 00:47:52,440 --> 00:47:56,600 So, you know, like during the day when you're there at DCA, 826 00:47:56,600 --> 00:47:58,520 you don't see the fountains that are under the water. 827 00:47:58,880 --> 00:48:04,440 And so when, yeah, at night time they bring the fountains up 828 00:48:04,440 --> 00:48:07,280 above the water. That's the most complicated 829 00:48:07,280 --> 00:48:10,840 mechanism of the everything. You would think that the 830 00:48:10,840 --> 00:48:12,440 lighting. Yeah, they said. 831 00:48:12,560 --> 00:48:16,120 All of the lighting. They said like we, we developed 832 00:48:16,120 --> 00:48:20,360 technology with lasers and lights and we've figured out how 833 00:48:20,360 --> 00:48:23,360 we can move fire and all these things. 834 00:48:23,600 --> 00:48:26,320 But the most complicated thing was just how would they figure 835 00:48:26,320 --> 00:48:30,360 out the fountains to move up and down out of the water? 836 00:48:30,480 --> 00:48:31,920 That was the most complicated thing that's. 837 00:48:32,120 --> 00:48:37,320 So crazy. And, and so another cool tidbit. 838 00:48:37,560 --> 00:48:44,120 So when they built Grizzly River run, they, they, they had to 839 00:48:44,120 --> 00:48:47,920 build this water ride. And they're like, where's all 840 00:48:47,920 --> 00:48:51,520 this water going to go? So because when you build a 841 00:48:51,520 --> 00:48:54,360 water ride, you have to store the water somewhere. 842 00:48:55,080 --> 00:48:58,640 And so because of that, they're like, let's make let's make a 843 00:48:58,640 --> 00:49:01,240 pier and let's put a like a lagoon there. 844 00:49:01,520 --> 00:49:07,400 And then when the when the ride is down, when they have to 845 00:49:07,400 --> 00:49:13,280 remove the water from Grizzly River Run, the lagoon is in high 846 00:49:13,280 --> 00:49:15,480 tide. And when the ride is running, 847 00:49:15,600 --> 00:49:19,080 the lagoon is in low tide. Real, so it would have been high 848 00:49:19,080 --> 00:49:20,320 tide while we were there. Yeah. 849 00:49:20,440 --> 00:49:26,600 So the, so the water in Pixar Pier now is, is the water that's 850 00:49:26,600 --> 00:49:31,760 used in Grizzly River Run. So it's all connected, which I 851 00:49:31,760 --> 00:49:32,920 didn't know that. I thought that was cool. 852 00:49:33,160 --> 00:49:35,440 That's interesting. I'm a cars land. 853 00:49:35,520 --> 00:49:37,040 Oh gosh. OK, we're going. 854 00:49:37,040 --> 00:49:38,760 Well, we're gonna do another and. 855 00:49:38,760 --> 00:49:41,640 Cars Land is so good the like the story of Cars land. 856 00:49:41,640 --> 00:49:43,840 I I you haven't told me about this. 857 00:49:43,960 --> 00:49:45,960 Because they were developing cars. 858 00:49:46,440 --> 00:49:52,840 Cars land as car land, not cars as car land before they even 859 00:49:52,840 --> 00:49:55,240 knew cars the movie even existed. 860 00:49:56,280 --> 00:49:57,960 OK, save it. Save it for next week. 861 00:49:57,960 --> 00:50:01,760 So make the people come back. But so that was that. 862 00:50:01,840 --> 00:50:07,720 That was the Imagineer who had that up was Kevin Rafferty, and 863 00:50:07,720 --> 00:50:12,560 he was a dishwasher at Disneyland growing up. 864 00:50:13,680 --> 00:50:15,240 And growing up or when he started out? 865 00:50:15,440 --> 00:50:17,760 When he's, when he was a teenager, when he was a 866 00:50:17,760 --> 00:50:18,600 teenager. He was 5. 867 00:50:20,000 --> 00:50:23,720 He worked as a dishwasher, and him and his friends would hang 868 00:50:23,720 --> 00:50:27,280 out after their shifts in the Disneyland parking lot talking 869 00:50:27,280 --> 00:50:29,360 about like what? What kind of ride would you 870 00:50:29,360 --> 00:50:32,280 create? And it comes out that parking 871 00:50:32,280 --> 00:50:36,640 lot soon turned into California Adventure, where they created 872 00:50:36,640 --> 00:50:38,280 rides. That's really cool. 873 00:50:39,200 --> 00:50:44,480 So that's really cool. And but yeah, car, the cars land 874 00:50:44,480 --> 00:50:49,040 story is really cool because just how they were developing a 875 00:50:49,040 --> 00:50:53,000 car land before they even knew cars even existed. 876 00:50:53,000 --> 00:50:56,360 And then this the how they got together with John Lasseter and 877 00:50:56,360 --> 00:51:00,160 how they developed all that. So that was that was all out of 878 00:51:00,160 --> 00:51:01,680 that. And then they, they touched on 879 00:51:01,680 --> 00:51:05,440 Avengers Campus a little bit Tower Terror, how they, they, 880 00:51:05,440 --> 00:51:10,200 they, the idea of concepting that into Guardians of Galaxy 881 00:51:10,200 --> 00:51:14,240 Mission Breakout and how they were just tasked with how to 882 00:51:14,240 --> 00:51:18,080 bring Marvel into the parks. They didn't say, hey, we're, 883 00:51:18,160 --> 00:51:21,280 we're, you need to turn Tower terror into Mission breakout. 884 00:51:21,600 --> 00:51:24,880 They had to figure out which was the best ride to be able to do 885 00:51:24,880 --> 00:51:26,240 that. And they had to do it in 15 886 00:51:26,240 --> 00:51:29,160 months and. Isn't that in behind the 887 00:51:29,160 --> 00:51:30,200 attraction too? I feel like they. 888 00:51:30,200 --> 00:51:35,000 It was, Yeah. And the Imagineers, like if Walt 889 00:51:35,000 --> 00:51:39,280 Disney could build Disneyland in a year, we can do this in 15 890 00:51:39,280 --> 00:51:41,600 months. Even though it was, you know, 891 00:51:41,920 --> 00:51:45,520 they were, you know, very stressed about it. 892 00:51:46,120 --> 00:51:49,080 And then just. And also The Avengers campus, 893 00:51:49,320 --> 00:51:52,160 they wanted to, you know, the story of how they built a Vision 894 00:51:52,360 --> 00:51:55,440 Avengers campus. Avengers Campus was going to be. 895 00:51:55,760 --> 00:51:57,880 Which which part? Fast pass radio. 896 00:51:57,880 --> 00:52:01,400 You helped build some of Guardians mission breakout. 897 00:52:02,600 --> 00:52:05,000 But Avengers Campus was about to open. 898 00:52:05,200 --> 00:52:07,960 They were two months away from opening Avengers Campus, and 899 00:52:07,960 --> 00:52:11,440 then COVID hit and so they had to. 900 00:52:11,840 --> 00:52:14,400 They didn't open up for another what year? 901 00:52:14,760 --> 00:52:16,280 They were closed for more than a year. 902 00:52:16,280 --> 00:52:17,640 Yeah. So it was like a year and a half 903 00:52:17,640 --> 00:52:19,040 before they could open it back up. 904 00:52:19,560 --> 00:52:20,680 No, it's just a little over a year. 905 00:52:20,680 --> 00:52:22,080 I think it was like a year and a month. 906 00:52:22,360 --> 00:52:26,880 I just like the the the how sad it was for them because they 907 00:52:26,880 --> 00:52:31,600 were so close and they had to put everything on hold. 908 00:52:31,880 --> 00:52:37,200 Yeah. So yeah, that was a lot of that 909 00:52:37,200 --> 00:52:37,840 stuff. A lot. 910 00:52:38,720 --> 00:52:41,240 You can see all my notes here. Yeah. 911 00:52:41,600 --> 00:52:43,240 So much stuff that was a. Lot of. 912 00:52:43,480 --> 00:52:46,720 Stuff but. I also did some of the downtown 913 00:52:46,720 --> 00:52:48,040 construction that's happening now. 914 00:52:48,040 --> 00:52:52,640 Very cool. So, so yeah, the D-23 panel was 915 00:52:52,640 --> 00:52:54,960 was really neat. They did announce during that 916 00:52:54,960 --> 00:52:59,600 panel that they're doing another Spotlight series where they are 917 00:52:59,680 --> 00:53:05,280 going into Walt's Adventureland. So the details and how Walt 918 00:53:05,320 --> 00:53:12,120 created Adventureland. So, so it's pretty, I think it's 919 00:53:12,120 --> 00:53:16,400 happening in March. Go down and then if we go down 920 00:53:16,440 --> 00:53:18,200 with our kids, we can both go to the panel. 921 00:53:18,200 --> 00:53:25,840 So yeah, it was about two 2 1/2 hour panel and really cool, 922 00:53:25,920 --> 00:53:29,160 really enjoyed it. So and then they had they had 923 00:53:29,600 --> 00:53:31,520 backdrops where you could take your own pictures. 924 00:53:31,520 --> 00:53:36,760 They had a Bugs Land backdrop and a the the original concept 925 00:53:36,760 --> 00:53:39,400 art for DCA where you could take a back. 926 00:53:39,400 --> 00:53:40,920 Did you take pictures? I did you. 927 00:53:41,000 --> 00:53:43,040 Didn't show me. Anything I forgot so? 928 00:53:43,640 --> 00:53:47,360 All right, well, while he was doing that, I went to the Beauty 929 00:53:47,360 --> 00:53:50,440 and the Beast show with my daughter, which actually I've 930 00:53:50,440 --> 00:53:55,040 never done and was really good. They didn't talk. 931 00:53:55,920 --> 00:53:57,280 Grim Girding does. They didn't really talk about 932 00:53:57,280 --> 00:53:59,560 anything in the future. It was more the history of they 933 00:53:59,800 --> 00:54:03,040 didn't really say anything. Yeah, nothing about what's 934 00:54:03,040 --> 00:54:05,600 coming next. They'd like a couple of the 935 00:54:05,600 --> 00:54:10,520 Imagineers that were on the panel are ones working on Avatar 936 00:54:10,800 --> 00:54:13,400 and are working on Avengers Campus, and they showed some 937 00:54:13,400 --> 00:54:16,680 concept art, but they didn't even, they didn't even talk 938 00:54:16,680 --> 00:54:18,320 about Avatar. They're like, yeah, we're doing 939 00:54:18,320 --> 00:54:21,680 Avatar, but that's it. We can't talk about it and so 940 00:54:21,720 --> 00:54:23,120 they didn't go to any detail about it. 941 00:54:23,240 --> 00:54:26,280 No John Stamos, no Jody Benson, Thank goodness. 942 00:54:26,320 --> 00:54:29,960 Because I seriously, I was like you. 943 00:54:30,240 --> 00:54:32,320 You. Yeah, I will not. 944 00:54:32,360 --> 00:54:33,840 I will not be OK. I will not be OK. 945 00:54:34,600 --> 00:54:39,200 So back in the parks. Meanwhile in Disneyland. 946 00:54:40,080 --> 00:54:42,880 But really, if you are in have gone to Disneyland and you 947 00:54:42,880 --> 00:54:45,320 haven't done the Royal Theater, they have Beauty and the Beast 948 00:54:45,320 --> 00:54:47,640 and Rapunzel, and I've never done them or Tangled and I've 949 00:54:47,640 --> 00:54:52,440 never done them. I was kind of expecting it to be 950 00:54:52,440 --> 00:54:58,720 similar to the one in Hollywood Studios, just on a smaller scale 951 00:54:59,440 --> 00:55:02,800 where it's just like a condensed version of the Broadway show. 952 00:55:03,240 --> 00:55:06,320 But it wasn't. It was like more storytelling. 953 00:55:06,320 --> 00:55:09,920 And they have like narrators and they were hilarious. 954 00:55:09,920 --> 00:55:13,600 Like I was cracking up. They have the kids sitting down 955 00:55:13,600 --> 00:55:17,360 on the rug. And it was, it was really fun. 956 00:55:19,920 --> 00:55:21,480 So yeah. So we just kind of hung out. 957 00:55:21,480 --> 00:55:25,280 Then my boys went and did some rides in Tomorrowland while my 958 00:55:25,280 --> 00:55:28,520 daughter and I were doing that. And then we were trying to 959 00:55:28,520 --> 00:55:30,120 figure out because at that point, it was getting kind of 960 00:55:30,120 --> 00:55:30,960 late. And I'm like, should we just 961 00:55:30,960 --> 00:55:33,200 stay in the park because we want to do the fireworks in the 962 00:55:33,200 --> 00:55:39,520 parade or should we go back? And I was getting overstimulated 963 00:55:39,520 --> 00:55:45,320 by my 2 youngest and the crowds. And I could tell our kids were 964 00:55:45,320 --> 00:55:49,120 just kind of except for our oldest who is never done, they 965 00:55:49,120 --> 00:55:50,640 were all just kind of done. I was like, do you guys want to 966 00:55:50,640 --> 00:55:52,040 get on the monorail and go back to the hotel? 967 00:55:52,040 --> 00:55:56,360 And they were like, yes. I was like, OK, so we went back 968 00:55:56,360 --> 00:56:00,520 to the hotel for a bit and and then met you there because you 969 00:56:00,520 --> 00:56:02,200 were like, I was like, are you almost done? 970 00:56:02,200 --> 00:56:06,720 Because I'm getting like, I'm done with these children. 971 00:56:07,960 --> 00:56:10,960 Took a little break, I don't even remember, and we just went 972 00:56:10,960 --> 00:56:12,040 back in. Oh, we went back in. 973 00:56:12,040 --> 00:56:15,680 That's when I live streamed. On our way back in, we got some 974 00:56:15,680 --> 00:56:18,080 dinner and lined up for the parade for Paint the Night, 975 00:56:18,080 --> 00:56:19,680 which is amazing. I love it. 976 00:56:19,880 --> 00:56:22,920 It was really. Fun The Pixar Place Hotel. 977 00:56:23,520 --> 00:56:33,680 Oh yes, we stayed at Pixar and we, excuse me, but it was fun 978 00:56:33,680 --> 00:56:34,600 live streaming for Paint the Night. 979 00:56:34,600 --> 00:56:36,600 And one of the reasons I really wanted a live stream for Paint 980 00:56:36,600 --> 00:56:41,760 the Night and Wondrous Journeys is because a lot of our friends 981 00:56:41,760 --> 00:56:46,240 in our community on TikTok have not been to Disneyland. 982 00:56:46,240 --> 00:56:47,600 Some a lot. We have a lot of Disney World. 983 00:56:47,600 --> 00:56:48,920 There's some have never been in Disneyland. 984 00:56:49,160 --> 00:56:51,720 Some just haven't been in a really long time or don't go as 985 00:56:51,720 --> 00:56:54,600 much. Really. 986 00:56:54,600 --> 00:56:57,480 I was walking. I know, I know Fast fast radio 987 00:56:57,560 --> 00:57:02,200 should have said hello. And so I got a spot for the 988 00:57:02,200 --> 00:57:03,280 parade, but it oh, that's what I say. 989 00:57:03,280 --> 00:57:08,920 It was neat to show them 'cause they were just like, I don't 990 00:57:08,920 --> 00:57:11,360 want to say anything negative about my Disney World friends, 991 00:57:14,440 --> 00:57:19,400 but I had, I in my time on this earth, I have met a lot of 992 00:57:19,400 --> 00:57:24,080 people from Disney World who kind of feel, and I'm not saying 993 00:57:24,080 --> 00:57:27,200 this about anyone that I in our community on TikTok, but like 994 00:57:27,640 --> 00:57:32,040 that kind of feel like Disney World is it and everything is 995 00:57:32,040 --> 00:57:35,280 better because it's bigger. And they kind of forget about 996 00:57:35,280 --> 00:57:37,680 Disneyland even though it's the original. 997 00:57:37,720 --> 00:57:39,760 And they're like, oh, Disneylanders always are. 998 00:57:39,760 --> 00:57:41,520 It's the original. Well, yeah, it is. 999 00:57:41,520 --> 00:57:42,160 That's good. It is. 1000 00:57:42,640 --> 00:57:47,400 But it was neat to show them these things that are like, 1001 00:57:47,400 --> 00:57:50,080 yeah, they're like, there's great things. 1002 00:57:51,480 --> 00:57:57,000 There's great things at. Disneyland. 1003 00:57:57,000 --> 00:58:00,120 Disneyland, sorry, it's like filtering comments, you guys and 1004 00:58:00,120 --> 00:58:01,480 so some of them I can't really see. 1005 00:58:01,480 --> 00:58:05,400 So just so you know, if I'm not responding, it's one, because 1006 00:58:05,400 --> 00:58:09,160 we're doing the podcast, and two, it's like filtered so I 1007 00:58:09,160 --> 00:58:11,600 can't really see them. So I just want to throw that out 1008 00:58:11,600 --> 00:58:15,680 there. But yeah, just a lot of our 1009 00:58:15,680 --> 00:58:17,560 Disney World friends were like, Oh my gosh, because Paint the 1010 00:58:17,560 --> 00:58:20,600 Night is just so good. You guys, it's the best 1011 00:58:20,720 --> 00:58:23,240 nighttime parade I. Am not just saying this because 1012 00:58:23,240 --> 00:58:25,440 it's at Disneyland. If it was at Disney World, I 1013 00:58:25,440 --> 00:58:29,480 would say that Disney World had the better parade like I will 1014 00:58:29,520 --> 00:58:31,720 say. Disney World has the better 1015 00:58:31,720 --> 00:58:38,080 fireworks. OK. 1016 00:58:39,360 --> 00:58:42,200 I mean, I was. No, I know you love magic. 1017 00:58:42,320 --> 00:58:45,160 I mean, magic happens. Happily. 1018 00:58:45,160 --> 00:58:47,880 Ever after that's a magic happens was a parade in 1019 00:58:47,880 --> 00:58:50,160 Disneyland and I do too. I do too. 1020 00:58:50,280 --> 00:58:52,360 That's not my favorite. It's like my probably my second 1021 00:58:54,200 --> 00:58:58,480 tied second, but there are so many people like, Oh my gosh, 1022 00:58:58,480 --> 00:59:00,680 this is so bright, like this is so colorful. 1023 00:59:00,680 --> 00:59:05,240 This is because Starlight is beautiful, but it doesn't it's 1024 00:59:05,240 --> 00:59:07,920 not as bright. It doesn't have like the the 1025 00:59:07,920 --> 00:59:12,280 performers, the performers up stop, stop. 1026 00:59:13,760 --> 00:59:17,080 Tim wants to fight happily ever after is fantastic. 1027 00:59:17,080 --> 00:59:20,880 I loved Disneyland forever for the 60th. 1028 00:59:20,960 --> 00:59:25,960 It it I love. I love it so much And then the 1029 00:59:25,960 --> 00:59:29,840 one for the 50th is probably tied with happily ever after for 1030 00:59:29,840 --> 00:59:34,800 me. Oh, Disneyland Paris. 1031 00:59:34,800 --> 00:59:36,640 I don't remember the name of what we saw there. 1032 00:59:36,640 --> 00:59:39,800 It was before drones, but it was really cool because that was 1033 00:59:39,800 --> 00:59:42,880 before projections came here that much. 1034 00:59:43,200 --> 00:59:45,600 So it was the first time we had really seen projections on the 1035 00:59:45,600 --> 00:59:53,000 castle and that was amazing. But we do love Wondrous 1036 00:59:53,000 --> 00:59:56,080 Journeys, but it's happily ever after is is better than Wondrous 1037 00:59:56,080 --> 00:59:57,920 Journeys. But the performers back to 1038 00:59:57,920 --> 01:00:00,520 Starlight parade in the middle between the floats, the 1039 01:00:00,520 --> 01:00:02,640 performers aren't lit up as much. 1040 01:00:02,840 --> 01:00:04,800 There are a lot. I feel like there's more 1041 01:00:04,800 --> 01:00:08,360 performers in Paint the Night and they are more lit up. 1042 01:00:08,360 --> 01:00:12,320 They have more lights on them. It's just, it's just a fantastic 1043 01:00:12,520 --> 01:00:14,480 parade. So it was fun to stream that 1044 01:00:14,480 --> 01:00:17,480 even though during our daughter was flipping out. 1045 01:00:19,240 --> 01:00:21,760 She. Was so stinking tired and she 1046 01:00:21,760 --> 01:00:25,080 was just like throwing a fit. And so I thought I was going to 1047 01:00:25,080 --> 01:00:27,280 stop. Oh my God, Yeah, well, 'cause 1048 01:00:27,280 --> 01:00:29,840 yeah. We got home and she was sick, so 1049 01:00:30,280 --> 01:00:31,640 I don't think she was feeling great. 1050 01:00:31,680 --> 01:00:35,200 But like, then I thought I was going to end the stream for the 1051 01:00:35,200 --> 01:00:36,920 fireworks. I was like, I really wanted to 1052 01:00:36,920 --> 01:00:39,400 show you guys fireworks, but she was like having a fit. 1053 01:00:39,560 --> 01:00:42,080 But then you took over. I was able to calm her down a 1054 01:00:42,080 --> 01:00:47,680 bit and it was, it was good. I would absolutely love if we 1055 01:00:47,680 --> 01:00:51,160 ever get to go back to Paris to see the fireworks with the 1056 01:00:51,160 --> 01:00:53,320 drones. I've only seen, you know, clips 1057 01:00:53,320 --> 01:00:57,120 of it. Looks amazing. 1058 01:00:57,680 --> 01:00:59,320 Amazing. Yes. 1059 01:00:59,320 --> 01:01:01,880 Disney cowgirl. When Paint the Night first came, 1060 01:01:01,880 --> 01:01:03,600 I think it was. When it was first, I don't. 1061 01:01:03,600 --> 01:01:05,920 Know if it was before, but like I remember they had the 1062 01:01:05,920 --> 01:01:09,560 interactive ears and the paintbrushes and I wanted to get 1063 01:01:09,560 --> 01:01:11,760 the boys the paintbrushes but I remember it's like we can't, I'm 1064 01:01:11,760 --> 01:01:12,600 not. Going to Well now they have the 1065 01:01:12,600 --> 01:01:15,080 magic bands that. Are yeah, our magic bands were 1066 01:01:15,080 --> 01:01:17,280 going off with it, but like, oh, it's just so great. 1067 01:01:17,280 --> 01:01:18,920 It's so great. So anyways, we did that. 1068 01:01:18,920 --> 01:01:20,960 I don't remember if we did anything after the parade or 1069 01:01:21,000 --> 01:01:22,120 fireworks. I don't think we did. 1070 01:01:22,120 --> 01:01:23,200 No, we didn't. We went back. 1071 01:01:23,440 --> 01:01:26,920 So we're at an hour. Is this going to be a 2 parter? 1072 01:01:26,920 --> 01:01:28,240 Is it? I think this might need to be a 1073 01:01:28,240 --> 01:01:29,480 2 parter. Probably. 1074 01:01:29,480 --> 01:01:32,880 Because we still got our DCA day and. 1075 01:01:32,880 --> 01:01:36,800 The Super Bowl and the. Super Bowl and then, and then 1076 01:01:36,800 --> 01:01:40,120 the Monday after the Super Bowl parade. 1077 01:01:40,680 --> 01:01:43,440 Yeah, so. Yeah, I think, yeah. 1078 01:01:43,440 --> 01:01:45,760 And then the, so here's the panel's going to have to be like 1079 01:01:45,960 --> 01:01:48,120 a third part we got. Content. 1080 01:01:49,320 --> 01:01:51,640 We got content for two more podcasts. 1081 01:01:53,520 --> 01:01:55,560 That sounds good to me. Yeah, I think we're going to 1082 01:01:55,560 --> 01:01:57,680 need to end this here. Because that gives us two more 1083 01:01:57,680 --> 01:02:02,800 weeks of podcasts. Yes, I know. 1084 01:02:02,800 --> 01:02:04,800 Grim gridding Dads. We got to get on. 1085 01:02:04,800 --> 01:02:06,480 Yeah, we got to figure out a day for that. 1086 01:02:08,680 --> 01:02:11,080 OK, That's fine with me. That's fine with me. 1087 01:02:12,960 --> 01:02:15,880 So, yeah, so a lot more stuff to talk about. 1088 01:02:16,480 --> 01:02:20,040 Like we have our DCA day, which was the 20, the actual 25th 1089 01:02:20,040 --> 01:02:24,120 anniversary of DCA and the on the commemorative maps that 1090 01:02:24,120 --> 01:02:27,000 they're handing out and just how the cast members were greeting 1091 01:02:27,000 --> 01:02:28,680 everybody as they were walking in. 1092 01:02:29,200 --> 01:02:35,400 And then on Monday we had the Super Bowl MVP parade that that 1093 01:02:35,400 --> 01:02:37,440 was the first time experiencing for us. 1094 01:02:37,440 --> 01:02:39,120 We've never been to one of those. 1095 01:02:40,200 --> 01:02:42,840 So that was cool to experience. So we could talk about that. 1096 01:02:43,080 --> 01:02:47,440 And obviously the DCA panel that we can go into the more detail 1097 01:02:47,440 --> 01:02:55,040 about maybe even because here's the thing I did record it just 1098 01:02:55,040 --> 01:02:57,400 the audio, just the audio and you're. 1099 01:02:57,400 --> 01:03:02,480 Going to get us band. And I wasn't the only person I 1100 01:03:02,480 --> 01:03:04,600 could tell. There's other people recording, 1101 01:03:06,160 --> 01:03:07,920 but maybe we could play some clips. 1102 01:03:07,920 --> 01:03:08,840 I don't know. We'll see. 1103 01:03:09,760 --> 01:03:11,080 If you want to get us in trouble. 1104 01:03:11,080 --> 01:03:17,440 That will be fine.
