We went to the zoo in Asheboro this past Saturday with one of Jen's cousin's and family. Now, while I didn't take any pictures, I wish I had a camcorder of sorts for one specific event.
We walk into the KidZone, a place where the kids can do a lot of hands on stuff and see some really cool things (for a kid anyway). The first thing that you encounter are two galapagos tortoises. Well apparently it's a very interesting exhibit at the time that we walk up. While we disperse, I notice that one tortoise is climbing on the other. Naturally, I know what is going on, but that's only because I'm paying attention. Jen on the other hand is very excited about the fact that there is something close up that she can shoot. So she's happy and is trying to put papers away and get out her camera.
Jen: "Oh, a turtle!" She only notices the one.
Me: "Are you going to take a picture?"
Jen: "Yeah! Is that it making those grunting noises?"
Me: "Uh, yeah. Do you know why?"
Jen: "No." Then she actually looks at the tortoise and notices that there's not just one but in fact two.
Jen: "Oh my God!" At which point the group of people who are all around bust out laughing harder than they have been at this point.
It was classic and would have been much better on film. :-)
