WEEKLY BRIGHT SPOTS

A golden victory
The U.S. men’s hockey team winning gold is an incredibly uplifting and electrifying moment, one that captures the power of teamwork, determination, and belief. They defeated longtime rival Canada 2-1 in overtime to win the country’s first Olympic gold in men’s hockey since the famed 1980 “Miracle on Ice.” As the final buzzer sounded, it wasn’t just a victory on the scoreboard — it was a triumph of resilience, unity, and national pride. The win sent waves of excitement across the country, inspiring fans young and old.

A giant return
For the first time in more than 180 years, giant tortoises are living again on Floreana Island in the Galápagos. This week, 158 young tortoises were released into the wild as part of a long-running restoration effort. The original population was wiped out in the 1800s, but scientists later discovered tortoises on another island that carried Floreana ancestry. After years of careful breeding and preparation, their descendants are now back on their native island. Because giant tortoises help spread seeds and shape the land, their return is expected to restore the island’s natural balance. It’s a powerful reminder that even losses that feel permanent can sometimes be reversed with patience and commitment.

Disney’s night-time magic
Walt Disney World is bringing a new night-time parade to Magic Kingdom, filling the park with renewed magic, joy, and nostalgia. After nearly a decade, Disney Starlight: Dream the Night Away has brought glowing floats, beloved characters, and dazzling lights back to Main Street, creating moments that feel straight out of a dream. Guests line the streets with excitement, children’s faces light up in wonder, and even longtime fans are reminded of that special Disney feeling that makes everything seem possible. It’s the kind of experience that brings people together, sparks happiness, and leaves everyone walking away with full hearts and unforgettable memories.
