    You guys are so on point. It’s been such a hard year. I’ve missed “normal life” so much. I pray we all get through this and all of the craziness will soon be over. Watching these videos is actually very emotional. It really holds past memories and future hope ...

    Hello Spencer, took notice that you were featured on another Channel, Fresh Baked and you made no hesitation in complaining and calling it Ridiculous with regarding standing in line. Please be mindful, nobody's twisting your arm to be there. As you have shared, Disney and Cast Members are doing there best to bring good times. With the limited guest entry, hopefully others will be able to visit and have the Wonderful experience you both had.

    • @BestlifeandBeyondofficial
      @BestlifeandBeyondofficial  3 роки тому +2

      I was referring to myself stretching being ridiculous. Its called self deprecation. I was being ridiculous by stretching because there was no benefit to stretching considering we were going to be in line for multiple hours. If you watch our video you can literally hear us talk in depth about how we love to queue up for hours as Disney fans even for something as basic as a new churro flavor. We also said how that is part of the experience in general. Do you think we didnt know what time it was gonna open? By willfully getting there at 630 for a 945 entry means we would have to wait in line for hours purely by design alone. Sorry that you took a comedic self deprecating moment as serious.

    • @govideo6706
      @govideo6706 3 роки тому

      @@BestlifeandBeyondofficial Thank You Spencer for the following Up. I did watch your Video and your appreciation for Disneyland And Cast Members. In the days and weeks to come, I'm sure there's going to be more long lines and guests wanting to share the experience. With the Covid situation and more possible closures will see what the future holds with Buena Vista. Safe Travels to you both :) Thank You again, for sharing.

    @MrJyora 3 роки тому

    I love you, guys. i love that you all show how emotional this is because nobody will ever understand it all. These Disney parks are literally your playground...growing up to adulthood. Not having this opened is a big chunk torn away from your lives. I get it. I love the tears because these are tears of release and joy. Release the bottled up frustrations and stress and the joy of being HOME.

    Making me cry too watching you guys’ 😢🤣 happy tears 1 1/2 week for us! Fingers crossed 🤞
    I cried walking into DTD and stage 17 after 9 months.
    I still get choked up every time I walk under the train bridge with saying just like i did at 4yrs old and meeting walt Disney him self with my dad and that’s really saying how old I am! So spencer don’t say being almost 50 and choking up I do it too and I’ve got 15 yrs on you and I know I’m gong to be crying walkIng in again! ( just wish I wasn’t 4-5 hrs away!)

  • @pinkytalaga
    @pinkytalaga 3 роки тому

    The thing some people don’t get it’s that they are more than parks to some of us. I’m almost 40 and people are surprised at how much I love Disney. It’s about memories, moments shared, as a kid life was crappy but no matter what was going on in the family, we were always happy at Disneyland. I remember mom working so much to be able to take us maybe twice a year. It takes us back to great times and making new memories with new friends. :))
