JoJo’s World: Meeting Princesses and Being Solo

JoJo has gotten off work and is hanging out in Magic Kingdom. He stresses throughout the vlog that this is the first time that he has been completely solo at the park. He says he has no plans for what to do there.

JoJo listens to the piano player at Casey’s for a while, and then goes to see Remy roaming around. He says it can be good to be at the park solo, because of instead of talking to friends, he can people watch and look at other things.

While in Tomorrowland, JoJo says now he knows what he is going to do. He has Fastpasses for Jungle Cruise, and after that, meeting Rapunzel and Tiana. JoJo says he has never been on Jungle Cruise during his DCP yet. He also tells a story about the last time he met Rapunzel (December, 2017). When he met her before, she asked him what kingdom he came from and he says he “just froze” and since then, he has had bad social skills talking to characters. He hopes to redeem himself by meeting Rapunzel again.

Alone:

“It’s really not that bad being in the park alone. This is the first time I’m doing it. You’re experiencing this with me. I’ve just been walking around, people watching. It’s a beautiful day. Like, I feel like when you’re alone, you can really take in and appreciate more of what’s happening here.”

Before the Jungle Cruise, JoJo takes a food break at Pinocchio Village Haus. There he gets a flatbread. After eating, he walks by It’s a Small World and Peter Pan’s Flight and says he has not been on either one of those yet during his DCP. He says he has five more months (or longer if he stays), so he’s is no rush to do everything.

In Liberty Square, where JoJo works, he talks to his custodial co-workers.

JoJo shows his trip on the Jungle Cruise and afterward, he gets a Fastpass for Pirates of the Caribbean from another custodial co-worker. In the Pirates queue, JoJo tells viewers, “I literally clean this ride like every day. Like EVERY day!”

After Pirates, JoJo goes to see Rapunzel and Tiana. He “channels his inner Flynn Rider” and talks to Rapunzel. JoJo reminds her that he spoke to her a year ago and that at that time he was a little nervous. He seems happy with how the current conversation went though. JoJo next talks to Tiana and asks her what it was like to be a frog. “It was very slimey, ” she replies. She tells JoJo that maybe one day when he’s a frog, she could show him her favorite lily pad.

JoJo exits and sees the fireworks in progress. He says the best place to watch them is behind the castle. He “dances” to the music of the show and after it’s over, does an outro on Big Thunder Mountain.

[2/5]  You get to hear JoJo ruminate for most of the vlog about about being solo and listen to some cringey interactions with Tiana and Rapunzel. Apparently, his negative previous experience with Rapunzel is a core memory and you hear about that as well. His interactions with his custodial co-workers is light-hearted and more interesting.
