California Vlogs ‘24 - Disneyland California - Day 1 Pt 2 - Rides & Magic Happens Parade

Hello Everyone! It's Tom and Paul! We're The Blokes From Stoke! Two big kids (and a dog) sharing our love of Disney, Universal, Theme Parks, Travel, Florida and Home.
Welcome to our California Vlog series 2024!
We're still exploring Disneyland park for the very first time!
Join us as we head in to Toontown and take our first ever ride to see Roger Rabbit! We also have a little mooch around Mickey's house. In fantasyland we take a ride with Mr Toad as well as visit Snow White.
We then head over to Adventureland to discover Indiana Jones and Paul brushes up on his awful Jokes on Jungle Cruise. It's then time to experience the Magic Happens Parade and we finish off the evening with a cheeky drink at the Disneyland hotel.
So come along for another round of mischievous magic!

I love watching first timers at Disneyland 🎉

[@TheBlokesFromStoke]

Thanks so much for joining us. We really did have a magical time!

[@ThemeParkBazza]

I don't know what you mean about that frozen Bannana 😊. Ok, leave a lovely comment. Let me think about that ❤❤

[@TheBlokesFromStoke]

😂😂😂😂 It was a frozen something…. Not sure about a banana 😂😂😂😂

[@benjamindenton]

Not two minutes in and we get the first knob gag. I don't know! It's great to see your comparisons between FLA and CA. It seems that Disneyland has a bit more 'charm' to it with more detail etc. Can't wait for part 3!

[@TheBlokesFromStoke]

Hiya! Oh how naughty we are hahaha. We honestly loved seeing something so different but similar. Next week is California Adventure so brace yourself for us becoming swingers hahaha

[@jazzydebs]

Hi guys, oh wow how fab is Toon Town, such a great chill, fun vibe 😋 Roger Rabbit is loads of fun , love hearing you laughing Paul.. hee hee! Really nice merch at MMRR shop. Great rides & good times eh? The characters seem so spontaneous & as though they'd be more cheeky & playful there too. Absolutely 😍❤the parade!!! Thanks guys... x

[@TheBlokesFromStoke]

Hiya! Thanks so much for coming to play! We really loved discovering all of these attractions for the first time… and as for that laugh! It’s more of a witches cackle heheheh

[@carolmandeville16]

Watching you both in Disneyland enjoying yourselves was lovely, I think its the best Disney, its so original so glad you both had fun. X😊

[@TheBlokesFromStoke]

Thanks Carol! This was such a good day and we absolutely loved this park. Definitely fallen in love with it!

[@meridethcooper7395]

Indiana Jones is my absolute favorite at Disneyland! Guardians at California Adventure is my favorite there. I can’t wait to see what your favorites will be!❤❤

[@TheBlokesFromStoke]

Thanks Meredith. We loved Indy too! It was fantastic! Loved Cars in Cali adventure as well… the pal-a-round however was a very different experience 😂😂😂🤣

[@meridethcooper7395]

@@TheBlokesFromStoke Oh yeah, I avoid that Pal around like the plague!!! But it is an initiation of sorts to DCA. So, since you rode it, that mean you are now a true DCA fan😉

[@juliatranter6868]

Brilliant, as always!

[@TheBlokesFromStoke]

Cheers Julia! Glad you’ve enjoyed it!

[@lisabridge6417]

Another fabulous vlog! The parade looks amazing. Actually, everything looks amazing! Xx

[@TheBlokesFromStoke]

Thank you Lisa! Not gonna lie, it was all AMAZING!! It was great to explore something new and experience all these different things!

[@mariehowell7312]

Some lovely moments , lots of laughter , lots cheeky comments and Tom's face was a picture in that last bit .... was the cocktail a bit sharp me duck??? 😂😂😂..... see you next week . Thank you xxx 🎉🎉🎉🎉

[@TheBlokesFromStoke]

[@daddycoops]

Good fun very informative always enjoy and you will love California adventure❤

[@TheBlokesFromStoke]

Thanks so much for watching! This was a great park! Excited to bring you the next round of mischief!

[@raebirchall7896]

Love that Indiana Jones ride hope its as good when it comes to Animal kingdom, Mr Toad's wild ride was our sons favourite he was gutted when they took it out in Florida and put Winnie the Pooh in place of it even though he was about 20 when they changed it. I am amazed the submarine ride is still going.

[@TheBlokesFromStoke]

Thanks Rae! We never got to see Mr Toad at WDW so this was a lovely thing to experience. A bit mad but good fun! You’re never too old to appreciate a Disney ride!

[@TheWilsonFamilyVlogs]

Great vlog guys 🫶🏻 I can’t believe how modern the DL hotel is? I expected it to be more elegant and grand 🤷🏻‍♀️ I know they have the Grand Californian but just assumed this one would be more 🔥

[@TheBlokesFromStoke]

Thanks so much folks. We only went to the DVC bit so the main lobby of that hotel might be a bit more fancy. We’ll be having a look around the Grand Californian in a future episode!

[@bristolishome8049]

What a fun day you had! Can’t wait to see more❤

[@TheBlokesFromStoke]

Thank you for watching!!! Not long til the next one!!!

[@TheBlokesFromStoke]

Awwww thanks! Hope you’re having a good time! Don’t let us distract you from the fun tho!!!

[@davemcmillan8460]

Loving the videos as ever guys. We spent part of our honeymoon here in 2017 and have forgot so much!! 🙈😂 so good to have a recap

[@TheBlokesFromStoke]

Thanks so much Dave. Awww what an amazing honeymoon to have! Glad to hear we’re bringing back a few memories!

[@fionagargett9557]

We're going next week for the first time and your vlogs have been super helpful. Thank you. xx

[@TheBlokesFromStoke]

Thanks so much! Have a fantastic time!!!

[@robturner4895]

If you guys love the Disneyland parks you need to get yourselves over to Disneyland/Sea Tokyo. Incredible!

[@TheBlokesFromStoke]

Thanks Rob! It’s on the list for sure. We’re off to Shanghai in the autumn so hopefully that’ll be the start of more to come!!

[@robturner4895]

Ahh awesome, Shanghai is the one I haven't done, look forward to seeing those vlogs. Pirates is meant to be incredible there!@@TheBlokesFromStoke

[@davinaweller6163]

Amazing vlog! Paul did you both ever try a cheesy flop over 😂😂. Thank you both for taking us on your new adventure with you ❤❤xxx

[@TheBlokesFromStoke]

Hahah thanks Davina! Sadly no Cheesy Flopover this time… but definitely sounds interesting! We’ll keep a look out for one in the future 😂😂

[@joyswindells4989]

Looks amazing, seen another KZbinr who isn’t keen but we’d definitely like to go. Thanks for making a Saturday lunch ❤

[@TheBlokesFromStoke]

Thanks Joy! We thought this park was fantastic! So many elements from WDW in one place! What was for lunch? Haha we missed it!

[@spoons165]

As always you two are on top form, we loved the parade. Do you remember Mr Toads ride at the world also the submarines and the cable cars all in MK loved the little cable cars, so far what’s your fav DLP, WDW or California? Keep safe Andy and Vonnie

[@TheBlokesFromStoke]

Hello folks! Cheers for watching. We sadly never saw the attractions at WDW but it was great to experience them at the original park. Choosing is a tough one… there were so many things we loved about California such as Space Mountain, Indiana Jones… don’t make us choose 😂😂

[@lisam374]

Great vlog as always guys 😊

[@TheBlokesFromStoke]

Thanks so much Lisa! Cheers for joining us!

[@sandramilloy3609]

Fab vlog as always. Looks a special park, and so different from Florida

[@TheBlokesFromStoke]

Thanks for watching Sandra! Yep! Lovely park… and we can’t wait to show you the other side!!!

[@elfious0204]

Used to love the Mr Toads ride in WDW. Shame they got rid of it. Loving the vlogs.

[@TheBlokesFromStoke]

Thanks so much for watching! Oh it was a great ride. Lots of fun… lovely memories of reading the book as a child.

[@wtttrips]

While the scale of Disney world is great for a long trip, nothing beats the original vision. Hope you got to go IN to Trader Sam's!

[@TheBlokesFromStoke]

Hiya. Cheers so much for joining us! Yep, agreed that it was lovely to experience Walt’s dream first hand. Didn’t make it in to Trader Sam’s but it’s on the list for our Disney World summer trip later in the year!

[@lynshaw8691]

If you were magically transform into a dwarf from Snow White , which one would you be ?❤

[@TheBlokesFromStoke]

Paul would be sneezy, and I would be Bashful hehehe

[@rygregory]

Love the videos! Thanks for sharing. Disneyland in California is the only park referred to as just “Disneyland” since it’s the original. It really does feel special at that park. Steeped in history and you can really feel Walt in that park. It’s a park where the decisions were made by him and not by a corporation.

[@TheBlokesFromStoke]

Thanks so much for joining us. So many people confuse Disneyland with all the other parks! We loved the OG!

[@rygregory]

Makes sense. Especially where you guys are from. Also, although the OG castle is the most special to me, the DLP castle has objectively the most beautiful Disney castle. ❤ Can’t wait for the DCA videos! Also, you should come to Disneyland for Pride Nights. So much fun!

[@TheBlokesFromStoke]

@@rygregory We seem to miss the Pride nights because of when they fall. One day!

[@lianwymer5693]

Definitely confirmed our feelings on visiting disneyland before disneyworld it just looks to be more magical🙂. Quick question? Would you say two days for each park would be enough or too much of a rush? Looking forward to what you made of the swinging gondola on the ferris wheel 🤭

[@TheBlokesFromStoke]

Hiya! Thanks so much for watching! Yeah it will definitely take a couple of days to see each park properly. There were a few things closed while we were there so will need to go back! Stay tuned for the PAL-a-Round! One of us was absolutely terrified!

[@janetali6102]

I toad you so 😊❤

[@TheBlokesFromStoke]

😂😂😂😂😂 Ooh we were slow on that one! Thanks for tuning in!

[@rachohara]

Disneyland looks so wonderful! I'm so glad you boys like it, its made us even more excited for our trip 😅
