Its getting late and i have no monkey photos but here are two photos i took from earlier on in the holiday. Mainly just for me to see if it works ok or not. I could paste them here i guess but the photos are 1 mb each and might eventually make this web page slow to load.
I hope to take monkey photos tomorrow if the weather will come good.

Only 3 days left with the spider monkeys. The one that bit me died today of internal injuries from his fall after being attacked by the monkeys the other day. So that was sad.
Last night I slept the night in the jungle, under a hammock in the area that Craig is currently working in during the day. The idea behind this is that a little while back, some capuchin monkeys went missing overnight. Possibly poachers took them. So now every second night two people have to sleep in hammocks in the area where they live in the jungle. The idea is you should go to sleep but if you hear monkeys making a racket, then look into it. There was no action. I slept very little last night though because the hammocks werent comfortable at all. It was also cold even though i had the polar fleece on, a Magpies beanie, a sleeping bag draped over me and a capuchin monkey sleeping on my chest. I slept for the first half of today back at the hostal before working after lunch. A few beers after work and i am ready for bed.

damien,
you sure the monkey that bit you died from a fall? not poison from your blood when it bit you? ;)
I wonder if he was wearing the Collingwood Beanie at the time. I know i'd die quickly if i bit someone with a Collingwood beanie on. Though its pretty obvious that you can't die if someone with a Collingwood beanie on, bit you, as we all know Collingwood supporters have no teeth. :-)
Good hat in the photo dude! You don't really look that comfortable with that lady and her leg around you though, is it because she doesn't have a tail?
Isn't the internet great?
that's a hell of a hat that you are wearing.
shame you weren't born with a cool name like Dickie
