As I mentioned at the end of my last post, all my dreams came true when we visited Monkeyland in Punta Cana. We got on a bus at the hotel and drove through the mountains to get there. Our guide was very knowledgeable and we learned a lot during the drive.
At Monkeyland, we got to meet about 22 squirrel monkeys. They are so cute, you guys. We saw a lot of babies, and learned that they cling to their mothers' backs for the first four months of their lives. Talk about a strong grip.
We fed the monkeys a mixture of fruit and nuts. They just climb all over you. I was just the happiest girl in the world!
