GT137 - Spirit and the Jellyfish Lake of Palau

Spirit is the quietest Goop around — so quiet she can disappear into her own thoughts without ever leaving the room. The moment she touches her smooth river stone, she's gone, lost in a daydream nothing can reach. But when that stone pulls her straight into the warm, golden waters of Jellyfish Lake in Palau, surrounded by millions of gentle, harmless jellyfish, Spirit discovers a world more astonishing than anything in her imagination. With the help of a small fish named Mechel, she learns the lake's hidden rules — and when a massive saltwater crocodile rises from the mangroves, it's the very stillness that gets Spirit into trouble at school that just might save her life. This episode explores Palau's remarkable jellyfish lake, a Palauan creation legend, and what happens when the thing we think is our flaw turns out to be exactly what we need.
