Great Travel Moment

I have always wanted to see monkeys in real life, and was finally able to during a weekend of travel in Costa Rica. While watching the entertaining mammals, one of them crept behind the group of tourists and stole a little girl's bag of candy, quickly carrying it up into the trees to the elation of the other monkeys and the sadness of the little girl. It was an entertaining experience for me, but I'm sure it will be a strong memory for the little girl; an example of how the simplest events can leave profoundly different impressions on people.
