Sun

Phone

Overheard at an outdoor café on a mountain not far from Davos.
(An elderly couple is enjoying the sun and goulash soup.)
Elderly man: Could you take a picture of us?
Young man: Of course.
(Elderly man is looking at his phone.)
Young man: You are not satisfied?
Elderly man: Well, you cannot make us more beautiful than we are.
(His significant other, a woman, is laughing.)
Young man: I can take another picture.
Elderly man (hesitating): No. No.
Young man: Why not?
Elderly man: As I said, you cannot make us more beautiful than we are.
Young man: Let me try.
Elderly man: Okay, give it one more try.
