Bali and the Monkeys

   Hello all, It have been a while since Jared let me write on the blog. So what is the first thing I am going to do, I am going to tell you a little story about Jared.  Jared and I went to the monkey forest outside of Ubud in Bali.  There is a ton of signs on the way in that tell you not to get to close to the monkeys as they are quite cheeky. So the first thing that happens when we get in maybe 50 feet into the park is a monkey starts biting the end of my pant legs and climbs up my back and on my arm trying to get to the banana’s that Jared has in his hands why he climbs on me I have no idea, he was a cute little monkey. Well Jared hated the idea of getting so close to the monkey and he is throwing the bananas so the monkeys don’t get to close.  Well later on Jared gets some courage and decides to give one of the monkeys a banana well he chose the wrong monkey to get close to because this monkey shows Jared his teeth and starts coming for him. Jared throws the whole bundle of bananas that he have in his hand and says “Here have them all”, as he is running away with the most terrifying look on his face. I can’t do anything but laugh and I am not the only one, some of the other guest are looking at Jared and laughing as well.   Now being that this only happened a couple of days ago, I am shocked that the Jared says to me when we get on the internet is that two of our friends are in Phuket working at a monkey reserve and he would like to go. I am now thinking what are you going to do when we are there, run away from all the monkeys.

So we have learned that we do not like the cities very much. As we are sitting in Kuta beach for a week we have gotten really bored.   The only thing there is to do here is go to the beach and shop.  Being that we dont have money to shop that leaves just the beach.  I am not saying that the beach is not nice but it does get boring if you are not surfing which we are not.

Below are some pictures of the monkeys and the Zoo. Jenna you cant go to the Zoo here as they have birds out and about everywhere. The last pictures are of the water Palace if you go to Bali I would say that this is not something to miss. It only cost 5000RM to get in and it well worth it.

    It was a big scary monkey, with large fangs ready to devour me. I wouldn’t be able to defend myself really. How would it look if I got in a fight with a monkey in a monkey sanctuary? I couldn’t really beat my monkey there could I! 🙂

    You missed this weekend… Due to your absence, Jared, Jay has agreed to take your place with Nate “temporarily”.

    We all miss you two and are glad you are doing well. When you get back stateside, you must consider moving down here! We have the beach and diving too!

    Run, Jared, run!!!
