Our hotel in Ubud, Bali was just on the other side of the Monkey Forest from downtown Ubud. After a pleasant walk past rice fields (of course), a few shops, and some yoga retreats, we founds the monkeys. There were more little Macaques than you could shake a banana at. Families of monkeys walked amongst us with their little babies clinging to the bellies of their parents. Some got a bit feisty, even fighting for a baby and pulling it by its tail. They certainly didn't mind us a bit, which was good b/c we were warned they get upset when you don't have food for them.
Afterwards, we looked for the funky monkey bar, reminding me of the nights spent at the Barber's Closet in Madison. We couldn't find it, but I got my fix with a cinnamon banana lassie.
