Something Totally Awesome!

I know what you must be thinking: "Sure this blog is pretty neat and all, but gosh if there aren't enough pictures of monkeys for my taste."

Well dear reader, your day has come.

MONKEYS!


JJ thinks this monkey was traumatized by the flash. More like the knowing look of mutual awesomeness, I think.


Check out the baby monkey feeding mid-stride.

Struttin' time = Feedin' time.


They know they have the run of the place. We just appreciated all the awesomeness and tried to stay out of their way.


Wise Monkey contemplates the futility of all this. Decides on a life course of stealing peanuts, existentially.

The hills are alive with the sound of monkeys.


This is where we were - the Batu Caves north of Kuala Lumpur. A massive Hindu festival takes place here annually.


There are 272 steps to get to the top. A sign there reads "No exercising." I don't think we had a choice.


The cave - imagine about 100,000 devout Hindus in here.


A temple in the interior space of the cave.


Monkey-faced Hulk here is tearing open his chest to reveal two women in his heart. Makes my problems seem kinda small, huh?


Here we are with our friend Julian, from Germany. Good man, Julian.


So. Much. Visual. Information.

Victor, that is DEFINITELY the look of "mutual awesomeness." This blog rules! You have given me something to do during lunch instead of following baseball and crying over Darfur (my usual routine). I am very jealous, looks like an amazing trip. Tell JJ hello, see you guys soon.

Peace and Blessings

Were these monkeys bilingual or MONO-lingual?
