This striking green-eyed Brazilian girl grabbed me by the hand and demanded in Portugese (I think she demanded?) I look for hermit crabs with her. It was a comical 30 minutes of us acting like we'd found gold, her putting the crabs on a rock to display, me pouring water on them so they wouldn't die, and her scolding me (again, I think?) for putting water on them. Even if it was lost in translation, it's nice to feel like a child sometimes.
