Grandpa Michael was a brave and strong man and like most of us, he had to face struggles in life. This is the story of one of his travels and adventures and was written to share that adventure with his grandson Nelson.

Hello Nelson, I am off to Spain on a pilgrim’s adventure to train, battle and search for some important friends. For you, I am doing this adventure as Grandpa Michaelangelo.  

To get ready to fight and look for our friends, we had to start with training. Here is one of the “Ninja Dogs” who trained with me today!! His name is El Greco. He is a painting artist and ninja. Like your grandpa He was very tired after training.

As part of the training we had to do a running contest!

As we headed off on our adventure we started out as a gang singing “Hit the Road Jack”, because we were on the pilgrim’s trail of Saint Jacques.  

We had lots of help from dogs, and a cat, and a chicken to find our final way to find our battle-friend Michelle-Angela. 

But it did take days!!!

Hola Nelson Michelangelo!

Our “COW-mina de Santiago” battle has begun!! We have each other to fight the battle!! But I need to find you first.

Then we must find Michelangela and then we must battle the enemy: Gliablastoma Farta our very stinky enemy!!!

But our search is determined, and so-ever-long!!! We don’t give up because we sense her magic forces joining us, and her Ninja-magic will make us a force to be reckoned with!!!

Finally I found “CHEW-BULL-BACKAW” who gave me the clue to find you back at the sleeping-bag-treehouse. After, we paid our heartfelt respect to Reggae music hero Bob Marley by singing “ROOTS ROCK REGGAE !”

Play a little music! Our adventure has barely started my little, brave but courageous Nelson-Mandela-Angelo!

Hola pequitos y pequitas! More magic trails with magic spirits! Awesome octopus appetizer to gobble passionately and the special meeting with Mule-Angelo!

Papi-Michelangelo has climbed the mountain trails to look for you Nelson-Michelangelo! It is lots of hiking and searching But finally I talked to Mule-Angelo our friend and he sent me down the good trail where I can meet up with you!!! Muchas Gracias Mule-Angelo! You are a friend of Ninjas everywhere!!! (Especially us three!!)

On our mission we met our Buddhist teacher and took the trail he led us down to learn our powerful spiritual peace!

Finally we met CHEW-BUDDAH-BULL who gave us the final directions to meet with our friend-in-the-force “Ninja-Michelle-Angela”. We pay our respects to Buddah and sing songs as we leave the blessed pasture land.
