The Westin Anaheim: One Bedroom Suite Tour

A quick tour of a one bedroom suite at The Westin Anaheim. If you're lucky enough to book it - or get an upgrade - this is representative of what you'll encounter. This is our favorite hotel to stay at when we visit Disneyland. Thanks for watching!

24 Days of Rum: Day 1, Mount Gay XO Reserve

Bear with us, we're learning. Not so much about rum, but about video lighting and framing. Once upon a time, I did a rum podcast. When a friend recently gifted us a rum advent calendar (of sorts), we decided to turn tasting it into a series of videos.

First up: Mount Gay XO Reserve

Our Tiki Day at Tikiland Day at Disneyland, September 10, 2023!

A few weeks ago, when Hurriquake Hilary descended, we were at DCA. Based on our attire, someone asked if we'd be at Tikiland Day, which was upcoming. As luck would have it, we already had Disneyland reservations. So we donned some dapper tiki gear and headed to Anaheim. It was nice to see some of our friends from the "tiki" realm, some of which we hadn't seen since pre-COVID. We couldn't stay all day, but hopefully this gives you a taste of the event. Kudos to Tikiland Trading Co. for their organization...it was easy to jump in and enjoy. See you next time!

World's Worst POV of Arctic Rescue at SeaWorld San Diego - September 3, 2023.

Footage: GoPro Hero 9, 4k. Arctic Rescue is the new-for-2023 Intamin Family Launch Coaster. It opened 6/2/23 and we took a ride on 9/3/23. While it was eventually a full ride complete ride, the coaster did set up at the start of the 3rd launch. We sat for about 9 minutes while the ride mechanics responded and got us past the 3rd launch. Disappointingly, once we got back to the station we were unloaded as though nothing happened - no acknowledgement from the staff, no apologies for the inconvenience, and no offer to come back and ride again later when the ride re-opened. In my day, that's not how it was done.
