1
00:00:01,040 --> 00:00:03,279
Speaker 1: Welcome to Lively Lewis Stories.

2
00:00:03,600 --> 00:00:06,560
Speaker 2: Buckle up because you're about to join Levi and Ivy

3
00:00:06,600 --> 00:00:07,520
Speaker 2: on an adventure.

4
00:00:07,840 --> 00:00:10,480
Speaker 1: All you need is your imagination an Off we Go.

5
00:00:11,600 --> 00:00:16,799
Speaker 2: Brivy Larous Stories. Levi and Ivy were lounging in front

6
00:00:16,800 --> 00:00:18,799
Speaker 2: of the TV when their mom peeked her head around

7
00:00:18,840 --> 00:00:22,360
Speaker 2: the corner and said, hey, you too. You left all

8
00:00:22,400 --> 00:00:25,000
Speaker 2: your yard toys out last night and it rained on them.

9
00:00:25,160 --> 00:00:27,400
Speaker 2: You have quite a mestic cleanup, so turn off the

10
00:00:27,440 --> 00:00:33,479
Speaker 2: television and get busy. Aw the kids said in unison.

11
00:00:33,800 --> 00:00:37,000
Speaker 2: They were hoping to watch their favorite cartoons and avoid

12
00:00:37,159 --> 00:00:41,360
Speaker 2: doing chores. Their mom went on to list everything that

13
00:00:41,400 --> 00:00:43,760
Speaker 2: needed to be done before lunch, but as she spoke,

14
00:00:43,960 --> 00:00:47,839
Speaker 2: the kids began to daydream. Ivy imagined a world of

15
00:00:47,880 --> 00:00:52,240
Speaker 2: fairies like Deeker Bell, fluttering around with tiny glittery wings

16
00:00:52,280 --> 00:00:55,680
Speaker 2: and pixie dust that contained magic. Oh, how fun it

17
00:00:55,720 --> 00:00:58,680
Speaker 2: would be to go to a land full of fairies. Levi,

18
00:00:58,840 --> 00:01:00,760
Speaker 2: on the other hand, imagine what would be like to

19
00:01:00,800 --> 00:01:04,520
Speaker 2: live with the dinosaurs. His favorite dinosaur was the pterodactyl.

20
00:01:05,040 --> 00:01:06,959
Speaker 2: He had even read in a library book that the

21
00:01:07,080 --> 00:01:11,520
Speaker 2: largest pterodactyl had a wingspan of more than thirty five feet.

22
00:01:12,720 --> 00:01:15,440
Speaker 2: When their mom realized they weren't listening, she snapped her

23
00:01:15,440 --> 00:01:22,639
Speaker 2: fingers to get their attention. Instantly, their daydreams were over.

24
00:01:22,959 --> 00:01:25,800
Speaker 2: It was time to clean up the backyard. Each of

25
00:01:25,800 --> 00:01:27,880
Speaker 2: the children took a towel with them to wipe off

26
00:01:27,880 --> 00:01:30,440
Speaker 2: the wet toys before putting them back into the bins.

27
00:01:30,920 --> 00:01:34,959
Speaker 2: Looking around, Levi said, boy, Ivy, we did make a

28
00:01:35,040 --> 00:01:39,200
Speaker 2: mess back here. Sure enough, they'd left out their bikes, skates,

29
00:01:39,400 --> 00:01:44,120
Speaker 2: hula hoops, bubble machine and more. I don't feel like

30
00:01:44,200 --> 00:01:50,720
Speaker 2: cleaning up, Ivy, wind me either, Levi, I mumbled. Procrastinating,

31
00:01:50,720 --> 00:01:52,680
Speaker 2: he picked up the bubble machine and turned it on.

32
00:01:53,080 --> 00:01:56,560
Speaker 2: Tons of bubbles came floating out. The kids squealed in delight.

33
00:01:56,960 --> 00:02:00,400
Speaker 2: All of a sudden, a giant bubble came out of

34
00:02:00,440 --> 00:02:05,280
Speaker 2: the machine and enveloped the kids. Instantly, they started floating

35
00:02:03,920 --> 00:02:09,640
Speaker 2: up towards the clouds. Whoa, they shouted. Looking at the

36
00:02:09,720 --> 00:02:13,200
Speaker 2: yard below. They could see the trampoline, the garden, and

37
00:02:13,280 --> 00:02:16,960
Speaker 2: their house growing smaller as they rose high into the sky,

38
00:02:18,240 --> 00:02:21,360
Speaker 2: and then, without warning, the bubble burst, causing the kids

39
00:02:21,360 --> 00:02:24,160
Speaker 2: to start tumbling towards the ground head over heels. They

40
00:02:24,160 --> 00:02:29,320
Speaker 2: went down, down, down, until Levi stretched out his arms

41
00:02:29,320 --> 00:02:34,200
Speaker 2: and realized he could fly. We have superpowers, Ivy, he yealed.

42
00:02:35,080 --> 00:02:37,200
Speaker 2: Ivy copied her brother, put her arms out in front

43
00:02:37,200 --> 00:02:41,120
Speaker 2: of her like Superwoman. She started flying too. This is

44
00:02:41,320 --> 00:02:45,880
Speaker 2: so falling, the kids shouted, zipping across the sky without effort.

45
00:02:46,639 --> 00:02:53,560
Speaker 2: Were they daydreaming? Or was this real? Follow me, Levi said,

46
00:02:53,600 --> 00:02:56,400
Speaker 2: taking off in the southeast direction. In a flash, they

47
00:02:56,400 --> 00:02:58,959
Speaker 2: found themselves hovering over the most exciting place in the world,

48
00:02:59,520 --> 00:03:03,880
Speaker 2: disney Land. Below. They saw the Big Castle with colorful

49
00:03:03,880 --> 00:03:07,320
Speaker 2: fireworks bursting into the sky. They waved to their favorite

50
00:03:07,360 --> 00:03:10,440
Speaker 2: Disney characters dancing through the streets of the Magic Kingdom.

51
00:03:10,960 --> 00:03:13,600
Speaker 2: They did loop the loops alongside the roller coasters as

52
00:03:13,639 --> 00:03:19,960
Speaker 2: people pointed and waved. Look it's tinkerbl Ivy exclaimed, She's

53
00:03:20,040 --> 00:03:25,240
Speaker 2: the most famous fairy of all. Oh my goodness, Ivy,

54
00:03:25,480 --> 00:03:29,680
Speaker 2: look over there, Levi yelled, pointing at Universal Studios nearby.

55
00:03:30,280 --> 00:03:33,040
Speaker 2: The kids looked in amazement as they saw Jurassic Park

56
00:03:33,080 --> 00:03:36,360
Speaker 2: and the new Velosa coaster. Levi I even saw a

57
00:03:36,400 --> 00:03:41,720
Speaker 2: pterodactyl fly overhead. It was so cool. From there, the

58
00:03:41,800 --> 00:03:45,080
Speaker 2: children flew north towards the Statue of Liberty. They flew

59
00:03:45,160 --> 00:03:47,880
Speaker 2: circles around her torch and waved to the tourists standing

60
00:03:47,880 --> 00:03:51,320
Speaker 2: inside her crown. The views of Liberty Island and New

61
00:03:51,360 --> 00:03:57,040
Speaker 2: York Harbor were amazing. Suddenly, Ivy pointed further north and said,

62
00:03:57,600 --> 00:04:01,800
Speaker 2: look at all that water, Levi. Sure enough, the kids

63
00:04:01,800 --> 00:04:04,680
Speaker 2: could see Niagara Falls from their perspective in the sky.

64
00:04:05,640 --> 00:04:09,320
Speaker 2: Levi remembered learning about Niagara Falls that it was actually

65
00:04:09,560 --> 00:04:13,640
Speaker 2: three waterfalls in one and was located on the border

66
00:04:13,680 --> 00:04:17,680
Speaker 2: of Canada and the United States. From there, the children

67
00:04:17,760 --> 00:04:21,719
Speaker 2: flew west, seeing a vast array of fields, forest, valleys

68
00:04:21,760 --> 00:04:27,040
Speaker 2: and lakes. America was beautiful. Before they knew it, they

69
00:04:27,080 --> 00:04:30,560
Speaker 2: found themselves in the Black Hills of South Dakota, face

70
00:04:30,600 --> 00:04:34,080
Speaker 2: to face with the figures of Mount Rushmore. They were

71
00:04:34,120 --> 00:04:38,680
Speaker 2: able to look George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, Theodore Roosevelt, and

72
00:04:38,800 --> 00:04:42,360
Speaker 2: Abraham Lincoln straight in the eyes and see the amazing

73
00:04:42,360 --> 00:04:45,760
Speaker 2: features that had been carved into the mountain so so

74
00:04:46,040 --> 00:04:49,560
Speaker 2: long ago. In fact, it had taken guts In Borglum

75
00:04:49,960 --> 00:04:53,400
Speaker 2: fourteen years to complete it. When it was time to

76
00:04:53,400 --> 00:04:58,000
Speaker 2: fly on, Levi knew just where to go, the Grand Canyon.

77
00:04:58,440 --> 00:05:01,080
Speaker 2: Ivy followed close behind as the two of them flew

78
00:05:01,160 --> 00:05:03,400
Speaker 2: at the speed of light to reach the vast canyon

79
00:05:03,440 --> 00:05:06,680
Speaker 2: in Arizona. The Grand Canyon is bigger than the state

80
00:05:06,720 --> 00:05:10,200
Speaker 2: of Rhode Island, Levi informed. The two of them flew

81
00:05:10,240 --> 00:05:12,960
Speaker 2: down getting a closer view of one of the seven

82
00:05:13,040 --> 00:05:17,880
Speaker 2: wonders of the world. It was absolutely incredible. Once they

83
00:05:17,920 --> 00:05:21,480
Speaker 2: were finished exploring, Ivy asked, where are we going next? Levi,

84
00:05:22,880 --> 00:05:27,160
Speaker 2: Let's keep heading west. Her brother suggested. They flew until

85
00:05:27,200 --> 00:05:32,040
Speaker 2: they came across the longest bridge they'd ever seen. It

86
00:05:32,320 --> 00:05:38,360
Speaker 2: was the Golden gate Bridge. Hey, Levi shouted, I've seen

87
00:05:38,400 --> 00:05:41,440
Speaker 2: that bridge before. It's in lots of movies. It's called

88
00:05:41,560 --> 00:05:48,360
Speaker 2: the the Golden gate Bridge. Then why is it orangish red?

89
00:05:49,120 --> 00:05:53,599
Speaker 2: Ivy asked, puzzled at the thought. I don't know, Levi answered,

90
00:05:53,640 --> 00:05:56,520
Speaker 2: just as baffled as she was. Let's go home and

91
00:05:56,600 --> 00:06:00,840
Speaker 2: ask mom. I bet she will know us and their superpowers.

92
00:06:00,839 --> 00:06:04,040
Speaker 2: The children flew straight home and landed safely in their backyard.

93
00:06:04,640 --> 00:06:06,960
Speaker 2: Their mom was just coming outside to check on them,

94
00:06:07,040 --> 00:06:11,000
Speaker 2: with juice and snacks in hand. How's it going out here,

95
00:06:11,279 --> 00:06:18,200
Speaker 2: she asked, uh, The children replied, looking around and realizing

96
00:06:18,240 --> 00:06:23,240
Speaker 2: they hadn't done much cleaning diverting her attention, the kids

97
00:06:23,279 --> 00:06:25,560
Speaker 2: asked their mom if they could visit some of America's

98
00:06:25,560 --> 00:06:29,760
Speaker 2: most famous landmarks. What places do you have in mind?

99
00:06:30,120 --> 00:06:36,880
Speaker 2: She asked, Disneyland. Ivy shouted the Statue of Liberty. Levi interjected,

100
00:06:38,040 --> 00:06:42,920
Speaker 2: Niagara Falls. They shouted in Unison. They told their mom

101
00:06:43,000 --> 00:06:46,359
Speaker 2: all about their flying adventures and described Mount Rushmore and

102
00:06:46,400 --> 00:06:50,440
Speaker 2: the Grand Canyon in detail. Then there was the Golden

103
00:06:50,520 --> 00:06:54,040
Speaker 2: Gate Bridge. Ive you remembered, But why is it called

104
00:06:54,040 --> 00:06:56,920
Speaker 2: the Golden gate Bridge when it isn't golden at all.

105
00:06:57,880 --> 00:07:00,680
Speaker 2: Ivy's mom laughed, Well, from what I I remember, the

106
00:07:00,680 --> 00:07:03,039
Speaker 2: bridge was built over a channel of water that connects

107
00:07:03,080 --> 00:07:06,920
Speaker 2: the San Francisco Bay to the Pacific Ocean. That channel

108
00:07:07,000 --> 00:07:10,360
Speaker 2: is called the Golden Gate Strait. That's why it's called

109
00:07:10,360 --> 00:07:12,640
Speaker 2: the Golden Gate Bridge. It has nothing to do with

110
00:07:12,680 --> 00:07:18,600
Speaker 2: the color at all. Oh, the kids replied, nodding their heads.

111
00:07:19,280 --> 00:07:21,600
Speaker 2: Then their mom said, I would love for us to

112
00:07:21,680 --> 00:07:24,680
Speaker 2: visit all the places you mentioned and many more, but

113
00:07:25,040 --> 00:07:28,040
Speaker 2: first you need to pick up these toys. As their

114
00:07:28,040 --> 00:07:30,520
Speaker 2: mom went inside, Levi began to clean up, thinking about

115
00:07:30,520 --> 00:07:33,240
Speaker 2: all the cool places he wanted to visit. But when

116
00:07:33,240 --> 00:07:36,600
Speaker 2: he picked up the bubble machine. He had an idea, Hey, Ivy,

117
00:07:37,040 --> 00:07:40,080
Speaker 2: are you thinking what I'm thinking? Ivey looked at the

118
00:07:40,160 --> 00:07:43,000
Speaker 2: giant bubbles coming out of the machine and said, I

119
00:07:43,120 --> 00:07:53,760
Speaker 2: sure am, let's go. Did you learn a lesson from

120
00:07:53,760 --> 00:07:54,400
