Today was the first ever Pangea Day!! In an effort to begin to bring the world together through the power of film, thousands and thousands of people in hundreds of countries watched 24 films made by filmmakers from all over the world. And BYUH hosted the only event on the island!!
Every single one of the films I saw were awesome. The music was inspiring as well. The event had Nobel peace prize winners, academicians, reporters, and celebrities as speakers.
Tevita and I had such a great great morning watching the films. He offered extra credit to his classes so it was fun to see the excitement of the students too.
Here's one cute little 2 minute animated short but I really want to encourage everyone to watch all of the them! I promise you'll thank me later.
Your blog is one of my favorite and I can always can count on you to show me the many interesting things that enrich my life. Thank you and continue to expand my horizon.
Megan, Totally had to google Eric Carle! How sad! I've loved his books for years and didn't remember his name! Anyhow, YES, isn't this short like his? It was made in Peru and not quite the classic that Carle produces but still a good film!
Patria, totally should have called but thought you knew! Bummer you guys didn't get to go. FYI, Mark's taking your place! ha! Loved spending time with Ruby today.

How neat! Thanks for sharing! I don't know why we didn't know about it. We'll have to participate next year. It looks like it was a neat experience.
Who knew origami could be so transforming? Gave me fond memories of Eric Carle books.
Where on earth was I? I'm super concerned that I didn't know about this.
