Welcome to the monkeyhouse...




Don't forget to click...

Unlike the fun "monkey forest" in Ubud on Bali, there is nothing "staged" about the monkeys everywhere here in the forests and jungles on these mountains. These monkeys, hanging out around the paths to the mountaintops in the park, are not the same ones that treaterd us to spectacular performances in the jungle across from our phenomenal $30/night terrace seats... We watched them tiptoe through the treetops behind our hotel, over our heads, and across the ravine our room is perched on... we watched a mother WITH BABY just like the one in these pictures... launch herself Evel Knievel style over Snake River 20 meters from one flimsy branch to a flimsier one in another tree...looked like she was bungee jumping with her child in tow... Who needs movies and TVs? We got two shows on a giant screen with excellent surround sound, and beer, books, appetizers and each other that ran for over an hour each... utterly relaxing, fasinating, and entertaining...
