People come from all over the world to visit Orlando and the world-class theme parks. Nowadays anyone who travels would never think of leaving home without a camera or a cell phone that takes pictures. One would think that memories to capture would include your child meeting a character or some significant piece; however, I constantly witness tourist taking photos of theme-park squirrels.
It blows my mind because it's a normal squirrel. Prior to moving to Orlando, I've seen squirrels all over the place, they run, they eat nuts/food, they get hit by cars, etc. Tourists both foreign and domestic go bonkers for squirrels crossing the road or sitting down eating the popcorn they've thrown on the ground. I've even overheard someone say "it's amazing how they train these animals." It's a squirrel! You probably have five of these in your backyard. I see this occurrence on a daily basis and will get a photo next time I see it.
I imagine this probably happens all over the world. Imagine standing in front of the Vatican or the Great Pyramids at Giza and completely ignoring the giant man-made marvel in front of you to take a photo of a squirrel that stops to scratch it's nuts. It only furthers the idea that we need to take time everyday to look at the amazing things that happen in our daily lives, rather than waiting until you've spent massive amounts of money traveling someplace to notice these thing.
