This time our visit to the monkeys with Alexis and Lacey was way more orderly. This time we were well prepared with bags of sunflower seeds and peanuts along with the big bags of corn. By spreading out the seeds and peanuts the mob of monkeys were content to sit quietly nibbling while we passed out the larger pieces of corn at our leisure .... the last two times we only had 50 pieces of corn to try and share with the 200+ monkeys.... and monkeys don't like to share nicely.... It would probably have been more fun for us to give Alexis the bags of corn and watch the monkeys mobbing her.... which was our original plan.... but shrieking monkeys are one thing... a shrieking Alexis another....Friday, April 30, 2010

ReplyDeleteThey are basically just like the ones in Wizard of Oz but without the wings. You were wise to prevent a major monkey riot so soon in Alexis's trip.
