Monkey Raid!

Addi and I went to the jungle for one more orangutan experience (the rehabilitation center feeds the semi-wild ones at 9:00 am). We got to see four of them up close and say good-bye. I got a decent video, and will post when I can.

Jim, deterred by the steep climb, stayed behind to enjoy one more cup of coffee and finish his packing. He forgot to close the door to our room and suddenly found himself in the company of 3 grey macaws...bouncing around the room and stealing some food before Jim could shoo them out. I wasn't there to witness this caper, which was likely more entertaining than the best orangutan viewing, but the culprits (one pictured) hung around on our veranda until we left waiting for another opportunity to raid!

We are at the airport now and word is our next stop has wifi so talk to you tomorrow!...unless, of course, there isn't actually wifi!

    Yes! That's the kind of Jungle Jim story I've been waiting for! LOL I knew he wouldn't disappoint - that will teach him to stay back in the room and work. Safe travels to your next stop. xo
