We went to the zoo on Joshua's birthday. The monkeys were so active. They try to spit on you. We had one monkey that would fill his mouth with banana and spit. There was an older money that could spit farther than any man could.

This monkey just sat there enjoying his orange. We had been watching them for some time when he got up and walked to the other end of this fence and threw the peel,
hitting josh right in the face. We told josh it was a birthday present from the monkey. We thought it was funny that the monkey had picked josh out of all of us to throw the peel at. It was interesting to watch them wrap themselves in the blankets.

These are the
Ballard children. They are an awesome family living in Mexico around the corner from our house. They joined us at the zoo. We had so much fun looking at all the animals with them. We spent most of the trip with them and so enjoyed their company.
