On February 18th, two cute furball guinea pigs, Pinkie and Squash, joined our family. The piggies, which used to run away and be wary at the slightest sound, have now become very bold, shaking the fence asking for carrots. In Pinky's case, he grew about 3 inches larger than the average guinea pig, and both dogs gained a lot of weight. They are still adorable and come in a variety of cute ways. We made a carrot and strawberry salad for Pinky and the squash. The two-tiered cages are still separated because they had a major fight once.

They look like South Korea and North Korea. I'm trying to figure out how to get them to become friends, but just looking at them makes the hairs on their bodies stand up and tries to fight. I don't want to stress him out too much for the time being, so I'm leaving him peacefully separated. Squash lives downstairs. He is sensitive, quiet and shy.

Aside from eating and exercising, Squash spends most of his time hiding in a corner. We're trying to get Squash to explore and play more. Squash will have to endure inter-floor noise from Pinky, who lives upstairs, for the time being. However, although they absolutely hate meeting each other in person, they seem to quite like the noise Pinkie makes by shaking the cage. It seems that Pinkie doesn't like the reward given when she shows such effort. We give Pinkie a carrot every time she shakes the fence. He seems proud of his efforts. I feel a kind of fierceness of life in the way Pinkie desperately shakes the cage. So, I have drawn this kind of energy. My husband, who saw this picture, said this. ‘People won’t know that Pinkie has this side.’ But we know it well. The two adorable guinea pigs are now two years old. I am reassured that they are still strong, healthy and active. Although cleaning, feeding, and playing with them every day is hard work, the joy, love, and comfort they give us is the greatest reward.

This is a simple tip to use when you want to remove the previous voice and record the voice again after recording a video for tutoring.

​First, if you import the video through iMovie, you can check the recorded audio as shown below.

​The method is very simple. Just click and hold the sound button above to mute and save again.

​Below is an example of a muted video created by  Amy.

​The program used for filming is as follows:

For the short winter vacation, I visited Disney World in Orlando, Florida on a 3-day, 2-night course.

It takes about 3 hours to fly from Long Island MacArthur Airport, a small airport on Long Island, New York, to Orlando, Florida. Because it was a quiet airport that wasn't visited by many people, the waiting time wasn't long, so we were able to travel relatively comfortably.
​
​The weather was clear so I was able to take pictures outside from inside the plane.

​My child was lucky enough to sit by the window on the plane. Of course, there were a few people on the plane that day.

​Since it was a 3-day, 2-night trip, we only had one day to play, so we decided to enjoy the Magic Kingdom in one day. To do this, I woke up at 5:30 in the morning, took a rental car, and drove from the hotel to the Magic Kingdom in about 30 minutes. I took the monorail to Magic Kingdom, arrived at the entrance, briefly checked our baggage, showed the entrance ticket, and went inside. In order to have fun at Magic Kingdom, we installed the app provided by Disney and purchased Disney Genie for $25, which is said to reduce waiting time.
​

​Seeing Disney Castle reminded me of Neuschwanstein Castle, which I visited when I lived in Germany.

Neuschwanstein Castle is located in southwestern Bavaria, Germany. The castle is located on a hill above the village of Hohenschwangau near Füssen in Bavaria, southwestern Germany.

This castle was built as a resort by King Ludwig II of Bavaria as a tribute to Richard Wagner. The castle was built as a private refuge for the reclusive king, but was opened to the public shortly after his death in 1886.

Since then, more than 60 million people have visited Neuschwanstein Castle. The castle has been the inspiration for numerous works of fiction, including Disney's Sleeping Beauty Castle.

​The back of the castle is more ornate and splendid. We went in right after it opened, so I was able to take pictures when it was quiet.

To enjoy Magic Kingdom well, you must install the mobile app provided by Disney. Through this app, you can receive information such as Genie Plus, which reduces waiting time, mobile food reservations, and maps that save waiting time for  food orders.

​My daughter loved meeting, talking to, and taking pictures with Disney princesses.

​I visited Disneyland in California 18 years ago. When I revisited the Disney Castle over the years, it felt like it had been greatly upgraded. ​Above all, there was no mobile app before. At that time, cameras had limited memory, so it was difficult to take as many pictures as we wanted. We had to wait a long time to ride the rides while looking at a paper map. However, as mobile phones became more common, I realized that waiting times were reduced and everything became more convenient thanks to various mobile app functions.

In particular, at that time, most moving dolls were real dolls and their mouths and eyes moved unnaturally, but Disney dolls from almost 20 years later have natural facial expressions as if they are alive, and most scenes are digitized and three-dimensional, giving a sense of immersion.
​

The most impressive thing is the American White Ibis , which are commonly seen in every restaurant, with funny faces like Disney cartoons.

​We went non-stop from the Magic Kingdom opening to the fireworks at night. Although it rained a lot while watching the fireworks, it was also a good memory of this trip.

Leonardo da Vinci's notebooks are some of the most remarkable documents in the history of human civilization. They contain a wealth of information on a wide array of subjects including art, anatomy, engineering, astronomy, and more. Da Vinci's notebooks are filled with sketches, diagrams, observations, and writings that offer insights into his genius and his approach to understanding the world around him.
These notebooks are not just artistic or scientific documents but also serve as a window into the mind of one of the greatest polymaths of all time. Da Vinci's interdisciplinary approach to knowledge and his insatiable curiosity are evident throughout his notebooks.
Many of Leonardo da Vinci's notebooks have been preserved and are housed in various museums and collections around the world. They continue to be studied by scholars and admired by people interested in the life and work of this extraordinary Renaissance figure.

​Recently I wanted to look again at the name of the image of the bird below.

Through this function, I found that the bird is a tufted titmouse. 
It is useful funcion on the google search engine.
