This is our second to last day at chipangali. Today we are on primates. I woke up very tired. I did not sleep last night and was very mad to get up. I finally got up and got all ready for the monkeys. We headed out to breakfast at the tea room at 7:30. It was a dilish French toast and cereal. The breakfasts are almost always the same. Bread and cereal. All meals have lots of carbs. We went out of the tea room and started to go over to the monkeys. The monkeys are very crazy and the blockbusters in the orphanage. They have normal monkeys and big baboons. The monkeys are a pice of work. Alex and Maumee do the monkeys with us. They are very nice. They are the nicest out of all the people hear. Our first job was to make a satch roof for the black chested snake eagle. This took the whole morning! Until tea time we used all of the first bails to make about half of the roof. We got a new bail and finished the very cool way to make a roof. This same kind of roof is on the big houses to. Then we had lunch and animal time. In animal time I went to all the carnivores, and I went to the Diana center to see the little black bunny that likes me very much this bunny loves to climb up onto my shoulder and sit there like a parrot. Back to work! In the afternoon we cleaned the baboon and some of the monkey’s cages. We also fed the monkeys. After the big workday we went home at 4:00 and would chill until dinner at 6:00. We did absolutely nothing in that time. Dinner was a nice steak with gravy and veg bowls. Of corse some bread to. Primates are very fun because you do lots of things with them. Also I like the people with us on primates. Good Night!!
