A Smile…

I am Smiling as I think about my new book and just grateful for not giving up and Believing in a better tomorrow…

I think I should have said, “God is Good & not all people are good,” but there are a lot of good in people. All we can do is pray for those who aren’t as good as they should be. Meaning no lying, taking items that doesn’t belong to you, or cause someone else pain etc, etc, etc……

Bye IV Now, LD*

Traveling Online #5: California part 2…

#1 – I had to go through five videos before I found one I liked. This one is another one driving through with good information and a nice sound to go along with the nice scenery in California.

It may just be me, but I have always liked looking out the window as I ride down the street. I would imagine what is down the way and hope we would go a different way.

Sidenote: I notice an  area along the way that I want to take a closer look at. That is the great thing about looking at a new area, you can stop, and get a closer look. One never knows what one will find rather it’s something to eat, a new outfit or any other possibilities…..

Lombard Street San Francisco | Crooked Street SF

•Nov 28, 2020

EDDvlogs  💻WEBSITE: http://www.eddvlogs.com/

Today I visit the CROOKEDEST STREET IN THE WORLD and one of the most popular locations in San Francisco — LOMBARD STREET. The main goal for this video is simple, I will share some of the history of this place, show you some of the amazing views you can get as you go through it, and share some cool facts about it as well. {}

#2   I saw a trolley and thought one cannot go to California without riding on one and Lombard Street  was heard from my previous video. I was really about to give up after 20 minutes and couldn’t find a video worth watching more than a few seconds.  “I am not a quitter” and came across this video.

Side note: This video didn’t just show pictures, but gave some information about this street that I would never drive on (well ride in a car, because I do not drive).

CATALINA ISLAND

California’s backyard GEM | Catalina Island weekend getaway

167,663 views•Jul 25, 2020

Eryn Krouse    Hey everyone! I’ve been craving Mediterranean Sea summer vibes, and I definitely got a taste of it on my two day trip to Catalina Island. Located only 22 miles off the coast of Southern California, Catalina Island is a fantastic destination for a day trip or a multi-day vacation. There is so much to see, do, and explore here, from bison tours, sport fishing, parasailing, scuba diving, sunbathing at Descanso Beach Club, fine dining, hiking, camping, and so much more. 

A huge thank you to Visit Catalina Island (http://www.visitcatalinaisland.com​) for hosting us!

#4  This video has made me REAlly WANT to come and visit this place. It looked to be a peaceful place to enjoy being away from a crowd of people. I liked the idea that the hotel also had a mini fridge and since everything closes early its a good idea to make a snack run before that time.

I just wished there were a few extra masks being worn, but other than that I still want to visit…..

Heads Up: Wrong Way…

Heads up people: 

When you see someone walking through an open door and you are walking towards them..

THE – You are going in the Wrong Way…..

You may not have understood why there is an “Enter” sign on one door and  an “Exit” sign on the other door.

I do feel sorry for you and can only laugh when that person whom you are trying to move out of your way just stops, because they refuse to get out of your way and you have to turn around and go out the right door…..

People are just too funny!!!

Naruto the Movie: Ninja Clash in the Land of Snow

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Naruto the Movie: Ninja Clash in the Land of Snow (劇場版 NARUTOナルト 大活劇! 雪姫忍法帖だってばよ!!, Gekijō-ban Naruto: Daikatsugeki! Yukihime Ninpōchō Dattebayo!!, lit. “Theatrical Feature Naruto: Great Action Scene! Snow Princess’ Book of Ninja Arts“) is a 2004 Japanese animated film based on Masashi Kishimoto‘s manga and anime series. It was released in Japan on August 21, 2004. The popularity of the series has spawned several sequels, beginning with Naruto the Movie: Legend of the Stone of Gelel. The film is set after episode 101. In the United States, the film aired on Cartoon Network on September 17, 2007. The ending song Home Sweet Home is performed by Yuki. The English adaptation replaced the song with Jeremy Sweet’s “Never Give Up”, due to licensing restrictions.

An original video animation, Konoha Annual Sports Festival (木ノ葉運動会 Konoha Undōkai), was included with the Japanese release of the film. The ten-minute opening short revolves around Naruto Uzumaki‘s inability to use the bathroom while participating in a sports tournament. It is notable because virtually every character, living or dead, in the Naruto universe makes an appearance in it (most of them standing in a restroom-queue). Minato Namikaze makes a cameo in the shot.

Plot[edit]

Naruto Uzumaki, Sasuke Uchiha and Sakura Haruno watch a film starring Yukie Fujikaze, in a local cinema. Kakashi Hatake has summoned them to watch it as preparation for their next mission: to prevent Yukie, who plays Princess Gale in the films, from being captured during production of her latest film. Yukie is later revealed to be Koyuki Kazahana, a princess from an island known as the Land of Snow. Doto Kazahana, who is revealed to be Koyuki’s uncle, was responsible for the murder of her father Sosetsu in a coup d’etat. During the shooting of the film, Doto’s henchmen, wearing chakra armor, attempt to capture the princess, but Team 7 manages to delay the princess from being captured. Doto eventually captures Koyuki and kills her bodyguards, who reveal themselves in an attempt to protect and restore her rightful place as the ruler of the Land of Snow. Naruto enters the ship to rescue the princess, only to be captured and forced to wear a chakra-draining device. Doto forces Koyuki to hand over a crystal necklace her father had given her when she was young, thinking that this is a key that can unlock the hidden treasure Sosetsu had left behind before detaining both Koyuki and Naruto.

Sasuke, Sakura and Kakashi infiltrate the fortress while Naruto and Koyuki escape from captivity. They confront Doto but he manages to capture the crystal necklace and flees with Koyuki. Naruto proceeds to follow Doto while the remaining members of Team 7 confront Doto’s henchmen. Kakashi gets his revenge by defeating Doto’s henchman Nadare Roga, while Sasuke and Sakura defeat the other two henchmen Fubuki Kakuyoku and Mizore Fuyukuma. Meanwhile, Doto discovers the hidden treasure to transform the island into the Land of Spring using a heat generator. Naruto confronts him in a duel, but gets overpowered while Sasuke uses his Chidori (千鳥, lit. “One Thousand Birds”) to weaken Doto’s armour. Soon after, Naruto releases his energy and uses his new Seven Colored Chakra Rasengan, killing Doto and activating a mirror to transform the land. In the aftermath, Koyuki decides to reclaim her rightful place of royalty and even mentions personally with Team 7 that even in the life of royalty, her acting career will not end.{}

#1  Naruto doesn’t know or understand the words, “Give Up,” and he will NEVER let anyone give up without a fight. It may take a lot of yelling on his part as he backs up his words while he is fighting to prove his point. I believe we should always stand for what is right and fight to set our dreams free. This was a good movie.

Side Note: I was about to start watching the One Piece movies again, then I remember I already started doing that with Naruto, so let me get to the next one…..

{} https://naruto.fandom.com/wiki/Naruto_the_Movie:_Legend_of_the_Stone_of_Gelel 

Naruto the Movie: Legend of the Stone of Gelel

Naruto the Movie: Legend of the Stone of Gelel (劇場版 NARUTO -ナルト- 大激突!幻の地底遺跡だってばよ, Gekijōban Naruto Daigekitotsu! Maboroshi no Chiteiiseki Dattebayo, literally meaning: Naruto the Movie Great Clash! The Illusionary Ruins at the Depths of the Earth) is a 2005 film which was directed by Hirotsugu Kawasaki and co-written by Kawasaki and Yuka Miyata. It is the second Naruto film. The events of this movie took place between the Mizuki Tracking and Bikōchū Search Missions. It was released in theatres in Japan on August 6, 2005. The English dubbed version of the film premiered on Cartoon Network on July 26, 2008, and was then released to DVD on August 29, 2008.

Plot

The movie revolves mostly around a special mineral called the Gelel Stone, which has a strong and mysterious power. There was once a clan that could control the stone’s powers, but they were destroyed because of wars for the stone. {}

#2 I was ready to watch this movie again, but then I remembered the whole story. It started off as a lie and once the truth came to light the fight became more meaningful. I know it ended right and I cannot find myself watching this again….

Bye IV Now, LD*
