A Day In Dana Point & Mission San Juan Capistrano - The First Taco Bell Sits Empty In Parking Lot

[@sharonpeters7723]

I love Tom's wisdom. I could listen to him talk all day. Also, I love that you never beg for likes, comments, or subscribers. You are proof that you don't have to partake in the stereotypical crap that 99.9% of content creators do in order to be successful. You are true to yourself and your integrity. Thank you for being you, Adam.

[@nineangels7572]

Well said! I agree 100%

[@jamesstephenson8789]

No he just has ego of he will ask for people to send him cards and what not because he thinks he is something big but won’t send anything or take time to send anything back to those who spent time sending him a card or whatever he asked to see how many he would get

[@ronaldhall9701]

@@jamesstephenson8789 yea but he did in all honesty tell us he wouldn't Jimmy look it makes me a little jealous he makes enough to do what he does put you know he did it he worked much like me and it is no easy task and well he did something first I never know about until maybe 2 years when I figured this online world and if I Did be honest would you have guit your job and move in your van and go around no knowing if anyone would send you any money and you would be stuck and broke in bumfuck Utah are somewhere and I don't think he drinks or gets high. But Jimmy I'm with you man he gets to all this and whatever else he wants and got some nice looking girls he can ring up when ever he probably gets more ass than a toilet seat and he is uglier than I am dam Jimmy I done got mad meet me at the airport and I'll put you on a plane to socal and you tell him how we feel how you like the way I slid socal in there? Well I can't go I am scared to fly ain't did that since 1978

[@sharonpeters7723]

@@jamesstephenson8789 You're completely wrong. First of all, Adam asked people to mail him self addressed envelopes (not cards) so he could send them stickers and buttons, but he never realized that thousands of fans were going to do so. It's easy for others to make snap judgements when they don't know truly what's going on. May this be a life lesson for you to stop attacking someone's character due to your assumptions.

These mirror aviator shades are taking the artistic shots in this vlog to the next level. The stars reflected in Adam’s eyes yesterday in the walk of fame was absolute poetry.

[@emmytolkein3320]

I love Tom's outlook, wisdom and he is a great storyteller! Great video Adam! One of my favorites

[@barbhawkinson659]

Loved everyone of Tom's stories. Ty for letting him share them. I've been to the mission one time back in 1975 on our family vacation from Seattle to disneyland. It was fun to see it again and hear some of the history.

[@jacquelinenewberry9601]

Great video. Loved listening to Toms stories.

[@kellyj.azania4371]

So far, this for me has been the most educational video. I like it a lot. I'm always deeply moved by Adam's genuine love for neighborhood landmarks.

[@UnboxingsyTrayectos]

There's 21 missions in California, some are still used as actual churches, but every single one is unique and each one have different points of interest, one of them it's a total recreation of what life was back then, complete with farm animals. I attempted to document them at different points. I have filmed at San Diego, Santa Barbara, San Luis Obispo and La Purísima in Lompoc. Subject makes for awesome videos

[@jameskann951]

Alot of them made Candles for Sales too.

[@supposedly1-2]

and many of them are haunted which gives them a totally different aspect for video making! 👻😃😃

Always fun when Tom hangs out. He can be so silly and at the same time just a regular guy or teaching us history. it's all good. Thank you, Adam, for sharing with us.

[@apirateslife1747]

Good watch Adam!!! You and Tom together, guaranteed there will always be a good laugh or two, or three 😆 I enjoy watching all your collaborations while in town. It's a great thing to see!

I'm still loving this Bro-mance! Keep it coming! Welcome "back" to the future, Tom!

[@reneebarrow4697]

I really enjoyed this video with all of the history. Another place I will probably never get to see. Thanks for sharing. Be safe and Happy Trails.

[@mamarey3060]

Loved the history of San Juan Capistrano. I lived in California for 30 yrs and never went there. I lived in the Central Coast area and had an El Camino Real run down the middle of the town. Thanks for the video 😊

[@durnno]

For someone who’s followed you for the better part of a decade, seeing you hanging out with Tom is so absolutely cool to see. I can’t even imagine what it must be like being such a fan. Becoming friends with someone you grew up watching in movies, unreal.

[@supposedly1-2]

he has quite a few tv stars /actors that he knows that recognize him esp in the parks i have been impressed a few times. (at the moment my brain isn't working so i can't remember who but it wasn't just Tom lol).

[@kattilathehunfreedomfighter]

I adore San Juan Cap and that whole area. I recently took the train to and from that very train station and also spent time walking around and dining in Dana Point. It is a very special place, you can feel that amazing early California history. ❤️

[@alb5338]

Being a casual Back To The Future fan myself, being friends with Tom must be the most surreal thing in the world.

[@patrickbolmeyer9515]

One of your best vlogs for sure! Very informative and entertaining.

[@chrisrobinson3866]

Love seeing that Tom is nothing like his character Biff in Back to the Future. Which shows how good of acting job he did playing him!! So smart and Talented!!

[@johnnyfive4436]

Being a fellow back to the future fan myself. What a dream come true for a back to the future fan. Just to have a video with Biff. But to have Tom as a friend is even more special. I can see your friendship is real and genuine.

[@baylake1888]

This is a "Made My Day" video. ... Would love to see a video of Adam and Tom strolling around the MK.

[@RTBird2]

Please make this happen! Would be so awesome!

[@daleberg3453]

Good to see Biff! As a long time radio person I'm a perfectionist. One of the worsed things I had to do was air check my show. Then sit down with the Program Director and listen to my tape. I can't count the many times I delete and redo a message I leave on someone's voice-mail.

[@kevinn2389]

Tom preachin’ and sharin’ a word with the audience today! Knowledge dropped!

[@chrishathaway7054]

Mr. Wilson couldn't be more of an opposite of his character Biff. Such a great dude. ACTING!

Tom's never stuck for words that's for sure, very enjoyable .

Great vlog today, beautiful place and Tom’s words, commentary, and tour guidance was really awesome. The story at Dana Point of Richard Dana really was inspiring, even wanting now to read his book. Good work.

[@denisedean171]

Tom Wilson is alway entertaining and informative. I really enjoyed this video Thanks

[@exploreusabytexasstarmagaz7213]

Hey Adam: I was shocked when I finally realized who you were talking to. What a delightful surprise. I enjoyed all the films that Tom has been in; he is a really good actor. I love acting too, been in it all my life (many years now); give me a stage or camera and I'm happy. I agree that we are our own worse critics! So true. Hope you had a wonderful day yesterday! That town is super unique. Blessings!

That seems like the most fun you personally have had in a video. A great one.

Loved this video! I am from SoCal and worked/lived in OC for years but never made it to the mission or explored Capistrano. Also being Catholic I enjoy visiting the missions. Love it! Cool surprise to see Tom too! Love his point of view and knowledge of the area. Impressed he knows Corpus Christi too!

[@joshua.snyder]

As a tea man, I love Thomas even more. PS: For Adam not to use Tom as click fodder in the title shows serious respect.

[@glenacebrown9995]

Great video! Thank you for posting. I always loved Mission San Juan Capistrano. It's a beautiful place. I liked your placing the shots of first Taco Bell - with it's nod at mission inspired architecture at the end. Very clever. Lots of fun information on this one. Makes me want to find and read a copy of Two Years Before the Masr, and watch some Gilligan's Island.

Adam, Ive been watching your videos a few years now here in the UK. Such a variety. So many great moments. Thanks for your time visiting all the interesting places, not forgetting the hours editing at the end of the day.

Love when you hang out with Tom. Fun and interesting guy.

[@tamarra7]

So many people have said the same thing but here I go adding to it. As someone who grew up loving Back to Future and to now be friendly and hang out with one of the stars from the films must be mind blowing. Do you just get back in your car and pinch yourself? Whenever i see Tom in your videos he seems like such a nice guy. Funny too! Most of all it makes so excited for you. I smile for the little 80s kid in all of us. Also he didn't take the camera from you this time. Lol

[@Rsmin]

Great, great, video Adam. Love the history lesson that we got from Tom. Love seeing the sites that I would never be able to see. Please let Tom know we enjoyed it as well. 😀

Still can’t believe as a huge BTTF fan myself (my fav movie of all time) that you befriended Biff Tannen (Tom Wilson)! As a giant fan yourself that has got to be the coolest thing ever!

I've met Tom Wilson a couple times, awesome guy one of his daughter's is a great singer/speaker in the Catholic faith.

[@augustmom3503]

Exciting for me to see Dana Point. DDH and I were there 20 years ago on our first vacation without the children. I remember going down those steps (low tide) and sitting on the beach to watch the sunset. What a beautiful sight, it was so calming!. Thanks you!

[@eptxprotector]

When you didn't know what Corpus Christi meant, I thought for a moment Tom would've started knocking on your head and saying, "hello, hello, anybody home? Think Woo, Think!"

Tom is absolutely right "Two Years Before the Mast" is one of my top five American Classics, a must read Adam. An essential read if you're an old retired Navy sailor like me. I first read it in high school and was gifted a first edition ( Fine) copy when I completed SWCCC training by my uncle Frank. Last time I had it appraised it showed as $5,900 to $6,900. My uncle paid $300 for it in 1985, (The year I completed SWCCC training and also the year BTTF was released!! I'm starting to see a pattern here Adam...

[@this_jedi_crafts6626]

Great video! Glad you got to see Dana Point - my family lives a few minutes from there. I'm surprised your friend didn't point out (and it's easier to see when it's low tide) but actual Dana "point" of the rock formation makes the profile of a man. I can't remember if it's supposed to be a Native American or other early resident but, when I finally saw it, I was like "wow!" Hoping you got to walk around the entire pier area - there is an amazing bagel place there too (among many cool gift shops). Thanks for taking us along - always so relaxing to watch!
