Monkey Forest


Just south of Ubud center is a monkey forest, a home to many rather aggressive monkeys. We paid our entrance fees and purchased some bananas to share with the monkeys on our walk through.


It was lovely to be in a forest again. We found all kinds of places to stop and pose for photos.



This monkey is rather calm compared to most of the others. One big old fellow jumped up on Austin's leg and snarled at him until he threw down some bananas. We saw a couple of people walking around with a monkey on their head, trying to remain calm. I made Austin carry the bananas and tried to walk calmly, looking as boring as possible.

As we were walking around, one of the boys made a comment about feeling like Indiana Jones. Riley found some vines before we left and tried to swing. He didn't get very far but he had fun trying.
