The other day, while passing time in the church long after the food pantry and soup kitchen had closed, a group of us stumbled upon the subject of Spider Monkeys. Rose starred at me in disbelief as if she had never heard of Spider Monkeys. Sensing a tiny bit of naivety floating through the air, I immediately pounced. I quickly began telling her about all the different types of monkeys: Roach Monkeys, Snake Monkeys, Big Monkeys, Tall Monkeys, Blue Monkeys, Small Monkeys...all that Dr. Seuss stuff. Of course, she knew I was messing with her. This completely destroyed her trust in me, and the funny thing is, she still didn't believe in Spider Monkeys when it was all said and done. Brett had to sit her down and show her a video of Spider Monkeys on his iPhone.
P.S. I've never realized how useful an iPhone is until this trip. We'll be standing on a street corner wondering something like "What's the capital of Moldova?" Everyone will turn around and stare at Brett as if he's automatically expected to look it up.
