Dream Trip 2009

Great Travel Moment

Having only ever seen monkeys in passing at the local zoo, I never fully grasped the concept that these are the creatures from which humans evolved. Encounters with these monkeys in the rainforests of Costa Rica changed all of that though. It is impossible to look at that face and not think of a time when you felt exactly the same way. His face exudes human emotions and curiosity in a way no other species of animal can, leaving no doubt about who our oldest ancestors are.
