#Spotted While Roaming in Aotearoa New Zealand:
A small human (3?) is MOST AGGRIEVED. Tears streaming down his face, bottom lip a wibble-wobble.
Mum says: "What's wrong?"
He wails: "I bit Braden and he didn't THANK ME!"
Mum sighs. "You bit your brother and you want him to thank you?"
"YES! He ASKED me to bite him!"
A tiny human (2?) has a rather special shiny black feather in her hand. She's flouncing through the shampoo aisle of a supermarket.
Flitting her feather here.
Flapping it there.
Beaming and whispering: "Magic! Magic! Magic!" as she goes.
Two women (18 & 50?) are walking through a big department stall.
The older says to the younger: "It's a bit scary to work here at first but you find your feet quickly."
She gives her new colleague an encouraging smile.
A tiny human (2?) is riding a push-along bike down the footpath next to dad.
Roaring "BRUMBRUMBRUUUUM" as she goes.
A laughing passerby says to Dad: "Sounds like the muffler's gone on that bike. It's a loud one!"
Dad grins: "Loud since day one, mate! Never a quiet moment with this one."
A man (20s?) wearing a suit, with morning shower-damp hair runs into a cafe, skids to a stop at the counter and orders an almond croissant. Saying: "Gotta fuel up. Big day! Running late." Before skidding out the door again and run-walking down the street. Croissant crumbs trailing behind him.
