I never knew that Los Angeles had 25 sister cities, until I watched the show, Franklin and Bash. I saw this sign on the show and looked it up. I look up a lot of things, as I watch TV. The city of Nagoya, Japan was first sister of Los Angeles. It was established, in 1959, by Dwight D. Eisenhower's People to People Program, which was organized in 1956, in an attempt to foster international peace, cultural understanding, and global cooperation, after World War 2. These cities have things in common, with each other, so they are paired together, to unite the people in those cities. I love this idea!! I am all for anything that is done to bring people together and help them understand each other better and feel closer to each other. I just looked up Seattle and learned that it has 21 sister cities, and NYC has 11 of them. I was curious because I live in Washington state, and I'm from New York state so... I watch a lot of TV so I find things on the shows that I watch to make them more interesting and to expand my knowledge and understanding of the world. I like to make the most of things so... I love that they show the above sign a lot on this show. If you look around the screen, as you watch TV, you can find a lot of very interesting things there. I pause shows to find out what I'm looking at and why they're there, very often, because I love to learn new things, and it makes TV viewing more fun and less of a waste of time 😁😁😁 so many people just zone out, in front of a TV. I like to be active and challenge myself, as I watch TV. I've learned so many things from doing this... you should try it... it's a lot of fun, and you never know what fun fact you may learn!! We are all told to exercise our bodies so we stay in shape, and we will be healthier. I believe that we need to exercise our minds, too, for the same reasons... what do you think? 🤔 🧠💪
