If you're in the mood for a serious dose of cuteness, rest assured, your browsing skills have landed you in the best possible place. Especially if you happen to be quite fond of dolphins, which, let's face it, pretty much everybody is.

The video below made it online several days ago, and has since been viewed several hundred thousand times. Then again, it's utterly adorable, so it's hard to blame people for not being able to get enough of it.

The footage, most likely shot as a marine park, shows a kid and a dolphin playing with each other. More precisely, they keep bouncing a red ball between them.

At first, the dolphin and the kid keep the game on land. However, at one point, the young boy decides that it's way more entertaining to throw the ball in the water and have the dolphin swim after it and return it to him.

It goes without saying that the little boy featured in this video is most definitely having the time of his life. Then again, it doesn't look like the dolphin minds fetching the ball for the teeny tiny two-legged creature walking around its pool.

On the contrary, I for one am quite convinced that the marine mammal is very much enjoying itself.
