Vic Falls - Meanwhile Back at the Camp...

...the monkeys were taking over!  There were dozens and dozen of cheeky, little monsters.  They were so cute at first...running, chasing, swinging and chattering.  Then they gained confidence as more of their friends came to play.  At one point, Emily was meeting with the new riders and handing out their protein bars, a monkey grabbed two of the bars from her immediately ripped the wrapper off one and started eating it while he ran off with the other one tucked under his arm.  

I was hanging out near the pool watching this little guy and his friends use Elliots tent and tarp as a trampoline.  They bounced, and slid and did flips for hours.  Then they found his shower bag, this little guy claimed his toothbrush and seemed to have some idea about how to use it.



Meanwhile, others took clothes off people's clothes lines and could be seen putting them on their heads.  One had a head band around his waist and another took a guys cycling jersey up a tree and left it there.  They were very cheeky, when they were bouncing around under Tim's tarp (looking like popcorn popping from the outside, I yelled at them to go away but instead they surrounded me trying to intimidate me.  They won.



Next morning, Michael clipped his helmet to his handle bar while he ate breakfast.  When he came back a monkey had crapped in his helmet.  Of course, many had a good laugh over this including Tallis who was taking down his tent nearby.  While Tallis was folding his fly a monkey crapped in his tent.  Unfortunately Tallis didn't notice until he opened it that evening.  Karma has a way of circling around.
