    What a wonderful day for you all, and a wonderful birthday for Hans!!! :-)
    The Lemurs look so tame, sitting right next to the kids!
    Love your sock monkey too!!! I have one about 90% done since last summer, then went on to something else! lol!!!

    What a great birthday outing. It appears that the "sock" monkey had the most fun :wink:

    Thanks everyone, from Hans for the birthday wishes!

    Sock monkey so fat is just Sock Monkey - no name yet!

    Karla - the big guys are on moated islands so it's quite safe! It's only the lemurs, capucins, spider monkeys etc who are climbing in the trees all around you. You are told to look out for hats, sun glasses etc as they are known to grab things and run!

    Not that I've heard of and we've been a few times! There are members of staff all over the place.
