Don't monkey with me, Monkey!

view map

Paying $5.00 to go into the cages with the monkeys was worth every penny. We had to empty our pockets because we were warned that the little critters were adept pickpockets. No sooner had I walked into the cage than one monkey jumped on my head and another one was opening up the buttoned pockets on my cargo pants. They were also fascinated by the braid in my hair, insisting they could make it better by pulling on it. This one got into a fight with me after he pulled the rubber band out of my hair once and ran off with it. I also managed to lose the back to an earring and almost lost the whole earring itself, retrieved only by the nice man in charge of the monkeys after going after the little guy with a rake until he dropped it. Yep, they were rascally little suckers but loads of fun.

Holy Crap, there is NO way a monkey is on Dana Browne's head!
