Bye world (for now)!

We're sailing out soon on the Carnival Mardi Gras cruise ship so I won't be able to comment and reply much. I have stuff scheduled and will post some cruise things when I get back!

Staying at Riverside for a few days! We’re in one of the older style rooms, which definitely has that classic charm. It’s a 5th sleeper, and the pulldown bed is the perfect size for anyone under 50 inches tall. This room will be updated in the future. Honestly, sometimes that classic vibe is a better Disney experience to me.

I swear, Disney's Port Orleans Resort Riverside is one of the most photogenic hotels at Disney. We're staying in Alligator Bayou and I'm loving the vibe. The Louisiana theme makes me feel like I'm in a different world!

I just got off the newly reimagined Rockin' Roller Coaster and I LOVED it. It was essentially the same story. "Late to the concert and we need to get to it fast". The Muppets surprised me too. I was fully prepared to be disappointed but that didn't happen. They were fun from the preshow to the grumpy old men at the end. Oh, I even got to listen to the Dr. Teeth and the Electric Mayhem version of Song 2 by Blur while I rode it! More videos, pics, and Shorts on it will drop soon!

A lot of people compare Thunder Striker to Fury 325 but I think they're two completely different coasters. Thunder Striker has more airtime and just feels completely different to me. TBH, the way the seats are positioned makes it have its own personality! Especially the ones on the edges! 😱

🎉 Big News 🎉
A lot of you know that I have been spending a lot of time on two wheels lately from my travel videos. I'm officially launching a dedicated motovlog and riding channel called Carolina Cold Start this Thursday at 3:00 pm. If you're interested in motorcycles, engine sounds, POV rides, and Carolina cruises, I'd love to see you over there!

😎 New YouTube Video Alert 😎

Is it really a "First Time" if I’ve been here a bajillion times? Probably not, but it’s my first time in 2026 and THAT’S ALL THAT MATTERS! Welcome back to the land of G-forces and questionable amounts of funnel cake. We headed back to Carowinds for the 2026 season to see if I still have the stomach for Copperhead Strike and to hunt down that spicy new ride teaser everyone is whispering about.

HELP!

I've been really wanting to do some motovlogging when the weather breaks. It would mainly focus on the CLT area with videos on city tours and just ride along and hangout videos. I might throw some motorcycle gear talk and stuff on there too.

Should I start a second channel or upload them to this one? Would you all be interested in it? Let me know in the comments!
