Andrew: Monkeying Around

This was from the first day we saw them.

Hi! As most of you know, we just came from a trip to the States so were still tired from jet lag. Daddy came back from outside and said that there was a monkey. We went outside and saw it and 3 more with it. One of them threw a coconut down. It almost hit us! Then after I touched the coconut, I had to go inside and wash my hands from the monkey spit. Then Mom told me that it probably wasn't their spit, just the coconut water splashed on it when it broke. 

Then tonight, we saw 3 more monkeys when we were riding our bikes. It was the first time that I have actually seen a monkey do this: It climbed onto the top of the water tank. There was a tree nearby, so it grabbed onto the tree and started climbing! Later one was on top of the garbage dumpster, we heard, and we also heard that some people have seen them on their balconies! Well that's all the news for today- bye!

They were on the college next to our apartments.

Here's the coconut they were trying to crack to eat.

These guys hung out on the far corner of the building

Here's how far away we were- it's just next door!

Here's the big fellow about to climb onto the water tank.
