REAL MONKEYS! Check out our first customer! Monkey's just so maxed and relaxed! As we got closer to the temple, monkeys were everywhere! We were strolling along the beach holding bags of "monkey treats" that we'd purchased from the locals when suddenly, a large male monkey walked up to us and started reaching up to grab Mer's bag of monkey treats. Meredith tried to play keep away, but the monkey launched himself into the air, landed on her chest, held onto Mer's waist with HIS MONKEY FEET (!!!) and then used his super-monkey-strength to rip the bag of monkey treats out of her hands! TREAT-MUGGED BY A MONKEY!
Right after the mugging, the locals saw us struggling to defend ourselves against a pack of monkeys encroaching on our space intent to steal our second bag of monkey treats and they started waving at us and showing us that we should pantomime like we have rocks to throw or slingshots in our hands and the pantomime totally scared the monkeys away! Good looking out, locals! Thanks!
Then we ate the awesome dinner that Sarah cooked! Check out Monkey standing up like a weird muppet-person trying to get herself some delicious gnocchi!
Oh man, I love this picture SO MUCH. Every time I look at David's face I can actually hear the perverted little cackle he does when something naughty happens: "Heh...heh...heeeh."
...the monkey was just excited about all of us! Homeboy was packing!. Boy, thirty years old and still doing stuff like pretending an inflatable monkey's tail is a giant inflatable monkey-penis. I guess my eighth-grade guidance counselor was right about me all along! (At least he was wrong about the whole "ending up in jail" part! Er, at least so far anyway).
