We decided to take a slow drive to the coastal town after a lapse of six years - our last visit was July 5, 2008 when Nicole was just 4.
First stop was Hai Ung Seafood Restaurant. The last visit was to the popular River View but we found the taste to be a bit average. We enjoyed our meal this time especially the crabs cooked in salted egg. Fantastic! Sorry no pics as we were famished.
Next we bought some bread and long beans to feed the Silver Leaf monkeys and long-tailed macaques, the ever popular residents of the area. Six years ago Nic was afraid to feed the primates but this time she had a wonderful time. The Silver-Leaf monkeys were a joy to behold. They are ever so gentle. The timid ones would just sit back and hope we'd spot them but the brave ones would just stand in front of us and gently nudge us for food. Absolutely fabulous! I can't believe we skipped this spot for six years. I think we should make it an annual affair.
Above video is when a one-armed bandit macaque pinched a tourist's Coke. The clever monkey held the cup with its foot and gulped down the cola.
