Happy beginning of the week, everyone! We know you’d rather be in bed watching YouTube videos of cats or reading some of our silly articles (maybe that’s what you’re doing at work right now), so here’s a little something to cheer you up: A video of baby ducks sliding down their own personal water slide.
We found the video on Japanese website, IT Media, and the folks over there loved it, so we thought you would too. And we understand that sometimes you just need a sure-fire way to cure your Monday blues. If you’re waking up in Japan, it’s Tuesday, but we can imagine how awful you must have felt dragging yourself out of bed yesterday. This one’s for you, too!
