It’s an Axolotl ❤I can’t believe you remembered and you didn’t get it for me? Rude lol The park is hella giving off Christmas vibes 😂 on to the next video for my Eldon marathon!
i was told the great america gold pass with all park passport upgrade works exactly the same as a gilroy garden premium membership. free parking, free entry, bring a friend on friday and discounts on food. but i havent tried it... 🤞🏾
@@Eldons_Excursions when I called gilroy gardens they told me the regular gold pass gets you free entrance only but the with the all park passport add on, it works like the premium membership. Is it true? I dunno 🤷🏽♂️ 😂
@@Eldons_Excursions I do! It says that you’re growing as a channel and content creator and i think that’s cool and exciting for the future of the channel
Heyyyyy! Is your introduction song/music called “Rolling waves”?!!! Very cool Halloween shirt. So awesome you got to explore the park in the dark…love that spooky vibe.
It’s so beautiful. 😍 The lights, waterfalls, and the food looked magical. 🤤 Love your Hawaiian-Halloween shirt too dude! I’m glad the fire dancers or messy Potate didn’t damage it. 🎃🍍😂

@erikrivera2259 From what the staff told me, it's only free entrance 😕 that's with me showing them my pass.

@@erikrivera2259 I don't think so because it's not owned by cedar anymore
I went last year and we had to pay for parking. The entrance was free with a Gold pass.
@@jmt056 yup, that's what I was told.
