El mono in Misahualli- This monkey sucked me in, acting all cute and hungry. After this picture was captured, I had a falling out with the monkeys; as it turns out, they are little bullies. We watched this little guy's bigger and naughtier counterpart wait until a dogs back was turned and then chase him with a stone. Then he pushed him when he wasn't looking! Lesson learned- beware the cute and deceptive! These monkey are located in the town where we entered the jungle. We stayed at a wonderful Canadian-run lodge where we explored the areas around the Napo River. It was phenomenal and lush and picture perfect-the kind of place you would want to stay forever! From relaxing in the hammocks to eating with indigenous folks who served fish from the river. We ate freshly made cacao, which was harvested from the beans on the property where we were staying. The last night at our stay in the jungle we woke up to the loudest rain I have ever heard! Living in Halifax, am a rain lover, but the metal roof only amplified what was, to me, a crazy storm! I will never complain about Halifax rain again!
