Oh, Bette, that was a wonderfully inspiring pause at the beginning of a busy day. The two scenes that stand out in my mind are the rescue of the dog from the ice flo and the Guerilla’s fond farewell.
Now I have another video to recommend, much shorter than the above one, but truly incredible spectacular! UNDERWATER IN 3D, sent to me by one of my Tales2Inspire winning authors. You will love it!! http://www.youtube.com/embed/mcbHKAWIk3I You are welcome to share it with your list from your frequent blogger and friend, Lois W. Stern
