Starting point is 00:00:00 Greetings, travelers. It is your West Coast reporter here, Rick, with a little potential bonus for you here. Doing a super quick trip to the park today to try to get a couple things in real quick. A couple rides that sometimes don't work as well for my family, if time allows. I don't have a whole lot of time today, but I'm going to see if I can squeeze in a couple things for you. In the meantime, I just want you to enjoy the entrance to the park. I'll be back with you here in a moment or two. Terima kasih telah menonton Thank you. Terima kasih telah menonton Thank you. I'm not sure. I can probably sense a bit of a sound change here. I've just left the hub at the top of Main Street and I'm walking into Tomorrowland I'm sure all of you are well aware Disneyland is significantly smaller than Magic Kingdom
Starting point is 00:04:23 Doesn't take very long to get from one end of the park to the other. There. It appears to have reached peak churro hour as the line to get a diabetic. I'm a type 3C diabetic. Kind of an unusual form. I don't have a pancreas anymore. It's originally removed. There are lots of challenges that come along with being a diabetic. But every once in a while you get these really small perks, these small silver linings. One of them is that it does qualify me for a desk pass Here at the Disney parks so I've taken advantage of that and put in for a
Starting point is 00:04:54 Virtual wait for Indiana Jones And I'm doing a quick walk over here to see how that line looks for Finding Nemo and see if I might be able to get you the submarine voyage. The sign says about 40 minutes wait so I can certainly hear those cars rolling in the background. The posted wait time was about 40 minutes for this ride, but I think we're looking at maybe 20 or 25 total. We're almost on board. We're on the Argonaut 807.
Starting point is 00:06:56 We're on our way in. I'm just going nice and intimate here. Yeah. Do you want to have an extra seat over there at the end? If you want, I can do four here and one over there if you want to wait for the next one, and we'll put you right on. I'll go over there. Do you want to go on that side? You need to go back down for the next one and we'll put you right on. Cast off forward. Cast off up. Clear the bridge. You want to go on that side? You need to go back down for the rest.
Starting point is 00:07:31 Standby engines. Ship ring for getting underway. Welcome aboard Explorers onto Argonaut. In just a few moments we'll begin our voyage. Just a few reminders, please remain seated at all times. There's no eating or drinking on board. And you're welcome to take as many pictures and videos as you like. But please no flash photography. All ahead one two. Good day. This is the captain speaking.
Starting point is 00:08:07 Now that we're underway, I'd like to welcome your board. As the conditions of our voyage may be unpredictable, please remain seated at all times. Stand by to dive. Main induction closed. Pressure in the boat. Flood the main ballast tanks. Let's take her down. Dive, dive. Trip back to the main ballast tanks. We're ready to go. We're ready to go.

Starting point is 00:08:45 Dive! Dive! Trip out diving planes, 3 degrees. Trip out diving planes, 3 degrees down. Take her down easy, catch her at 10, folks. Speed 060, 100 knots. 060, 100.. 06 at 100. Steer 30 degrees. Steer 30 degrees.
Starting point is 00:09:10 All ahead 4, steady as she goes. Steer 30 degrees. As we leave the coast behind and head towards Over the Corner, you'll notice that this is a popular spot for divers searching for exotic fish. It's pretty. Alright, runner. 208 degrees. Set course directly over the Lost City. I like you, sir. Lost City did a heads up. Thanks. Stand by for weather watch.
Starting point is 00:09:58 Radar lines are standing by. Our destination today is quite extraordinary. A newly erupting deep water volcano. Even here in the shallows we can see evidence of such geothermal forces constantly at work. You can tell by our surroundings that they can make some pretty dramatic changes to the landscape. These remnants of an ancient civilization were hidden for centuries beneath the ocean floor. Hidden until unearthed by a tremendous volcanic event. Stair 40 degrees. Stair 40 degrees.
Starting point is 00:11:02 Mind your distance, support and staff. Aye, aye aye sir. As we leave this long lost community behind, we're about to enter a community of a different kind. The Coral Reef. The colourful reef that surrounds us is a biological community that thrives in warm, shallow waters. It usually takes more than a year for a coral to grow only one inch. An amazing fact when you consider that Australia's Great Barrier Reef stretches over 2,000 kilometres. Great Armand, you've surfaced all the way up there. No worries, we'll take her down faster than you.
Starting point is 00:12:00 All controls, 8 degrees down. Down 8 degrees down. We're approaching target index, sir. Level off and hold for 80 pounds. 80 pounds. Set course to 70 degrees true. Steady as you go. The fish world has always been considered a silent habitat. But now, thanks to remarkable advances in marine technology,
Starting point is 00:13:01 we can use instruments such as our sonar hydrophones to actually hear the fish talk. The Hold steady, take her into the car. Go ahead, stand in. We are approaching the EAC. Hold her steady, take her into the current. All heads standard. High-five. I've got two hurdles. The powerful flow of the East Australian Current is like an undersea highway. Many creatures can be found commuting in this current including the majestic C2 We're gonna hit the deck one day, Amanda! We're gonna hit the deck one day, Amanda! Amanda, can I see your little nudge?
Starting point is 00:15:00 Nemo! Nemo! This is not funny, and I know funny. I'm a clownfish. Nemo! Nemo! This is not funny, and I know funny. I'm a clownfish. Nemo! Dude, check it out. Wow. It's a big, sunken butt. Sweet. Nemo! Where are you, Nemo? Where's Nemo! Where are you, Nemo? Who's Nemo? I am looking for my son. I can help you. It's Nemo.
Starting point is 00:15:32 Where? I don't know. That's why we're trying to find him. Why who? My son, Nemo. You know that. I do? We went on a huge adventure together, which you don't remember at all.
Starting point is 00:15:45 Is he orange and white stripes and with how I think he was born? Yes, I can see that. Is he born with a beard? No, of course not. There's no more I like better than canned food. Oh, don't worry. I'm not going to eat you. At least not all at once.
Starting point is 00:16:04 No, no, Bruce, remember the pledge! Right then. I am a nice shark, not a mindless eating machine. People are friends, not food. Right then, kids. Easy does it. You would want one of these balloons. Balloons. Easy.
Starting point is 00:16:23 Okay. Run away! Secure all stations! Resist the jet! How steady, sir! Right! Let's resume speed! All ahead full! He's squirt? What are those twinkling things? I don't know.
Starting point is 00:16:46 Race you there. Okay. Go. Dory? Dory, wait. What? I see pretty lights. I see them too. Reach for the light. It's getting closer.
Starting point is 00:17:04 I see them. Oh, no. Oh, no. I see you. Oh, no! Ah! Ah! Ah! Ah! Something touched me! That was me. How do I know it's you? It could be anybody.
Starting point is 00:17:19 It's not anybody. It's me! Do I know you? Dory! Talk about a small world. My name's Dory, too. Uh-oh. What's that? It looks like... like... Me first. I'm thinking of something pink and bouncy that looks like a balloon. Jellyfish! Right! Okay, now I'm thinking of something pink and kind of... That's jellyfish! You're good. And I'll keep going. Jellyfish!
Starting point is 00:17:49 And the next one, jellyfish! Hi, Mr. Spurdypants. Stop playing games! Come on! Come on! No, don't play with me! We're going to a party! Let's go! I love parties! It's Pippi! Woo!
Starting point is 00:18:14 I found the hot tub! It's not about finding hot tubs! It's about finding... ...EVO! Evo, I found you! I was so worried! What? Hey! Did you go to the Earth's erupting volcano? We're alive! We survived an erupting volcano, Nemo! Ha ha ha! Come on! Ha ha! Girl love!
Starting point is 00:18:46 We survived an erupting volcano Nemo! Nemo? Nemo? Say something! Can we do it again Dad? Huh? Can we? Oh of course! When fish can fly! Ha ha ha! Oh! I found Chico!

Starting point is 00:19:19 Dude! Nemo! Check out all the whales! Sandy Plankton will eat pieces of whales on the grill. Then why is that whale eating that yellow submarine, dude? Whoa! That's one hungry whale! Sandy Plankton is never going to eat this. Hmm. Does that smell kind of whale-ish to you?
Starting point is 00:19:47 Is it really? That's funny. Sounded like, hold on tight, I'm gonna- It's a whale! It's a real whale! Just keep going, just keep swinging. What the? A big yellow whale! Wait, stop! Swing by!
Starting point is 00:20:12 Swing by! Swing by! Just keep swinging, swinging, swinging. Swing by! Swing by! Swing by! Swing by! Bye! Crikey! Should I have taken any of this into the long?
Starting point is 00:20:27 No, mate, forget it. Nobody would believe it anyway. You better take her up before we have a run into the sea, sir. We'll be more on account with the mermaid. Yeah, if you go back where you get up close, you'll see a certain animal come up around here. We are surfacing and approaching our home board. We've enjoyed having you aboard on this adventurous voyage.
Starting point is 00:20:47 Thanks for joining us and have a top day. Alrighty, explorers, once again please remain seated until those cabin lights turn on and the cast member on dock has told you it is safe to come up to the dock. Watch your head, watch your step step and use those handrails Thank you. Pada hari ini, kami akan menjelajahi kota ini dengan cara yang sangat menarik. Kota ini terdapat di seluruh dunia. Well travelers, I hope you enjoyed that little voyage under the sea and along the EAC. Definitely a little different from the Nemo that you have over in Florida. I enjoy this. It is not a ride for those that have trouble with stairs or those that are a little claustrophobic. Because you are sitting practically on the lap of the person next to you. Just a warning.
Starting point is 00:23:05 So I'm going to return to you here in just a little bit after walking across the park and getting us over to Indiana Jones here, I did want to add, I'm walking past the former Tarzan Treehouse, and all the scrim is down. You can actually watch the construction. It's kind of a surprise.
Starting point is 00:23:46 Especially since we didn't get any announcements about this at D23. So welcome to the Temple of Arudanai. I'm just going to be as quiet as I can and let you enjoy the ambiance. I mean, that's what we're all about, right? Sarah. Yeah, he's right. There's one. Go ahead. Yeah, he's right. There's one. Go ahead. Yeah, thank you. All right.
Starting point is 00:24:32 We just can't hold that. We just need more AC than this. They don't rise in resistance as well. This is my favorite record, certainly. Oh yeah, we always know this. This is one of the best designed cues in all of the cameras. I'm't know. This is where you think it's going. It looks like one of the... I know, where is it? They took it out.
Starting point is 00:26:31 They did? Yeah, it wasn't working, so they removed it. Oh, that's lame. It was here? Yeah, they just pulled it a couple months ago. Oh. They knew we were coming. But you can still yank on the roof. Yeah. Yeah, they just pulled it a couple months ago. Oh, okay. They do weep a lot. Oh my gosh.
