That Gangly Monkey At Uluwatu

Dear Charles,

I spent some hours visiting the Pura Luhur Uluwatu Temple today. The temple was built from coral rock and set high on the edge of a cliff with a 250-foot drop to the rolling, thundering waves of the Indian Ocean. With the sunset casting hues of crimson, red and orange, the view was really spectacular. Remember that moment at the top of the Cape of Good Hope when my jaw dropped? Well, this was almost close.

Yet, it was the monkeys that stole the show! They are rather cute, if you ask me.  There were masses of them all around the temple grounds and I am telling you, they were something else! They were really sharp and mischievously intelligent. Anyway, I am sure you do not need to be accustomed with monkey behaviour since you live with one.

The thing is, what I wanted to say was, I am sorry. The monkey has your camera.

Yours lovingly,

Wifey.
