   Visiting art galleries with the kids is mainly an exercise in shuttling between one of them who progresses through rooms at 2x the desired speed and the other who occasionally teleports backwards by 4.

     Mountain hike with one person who wants to make it up to the glacial lake at the top and another who’s a wildflower photographer

     @airspeedswift This is also what it's like visiting art galleries with my dad and stepmom.

     Also works when they’re my dad and my cousin and super nice and just generally chill. But the dynamic of the OP does ring familiar to me!

     @inthehands @airspeedswift I can tell you from experience that this works best when the photographer is a solid foot taller than the hiker, and also the hiker is very slow.
