Monkeyworld 2008

On Sunday 30th March 2008 we returned to one of our ever popular days out at Monkeyworld near Wool. It proved popular with our members again this year and 61 adults and children came along to meet old and new friends and do some ape spotting.

We spent a couple of hours monkey watching and then met up at 1pm for a social lunch and some chit chat in the play area. We were also very happy to welcome three new families along for the day and hope they enjoyed meeting up and chatting to other families that are bringing up and living with deaf children in the household. An experience shared..... as they say.

We were also blessed with another welcome addition this year - SUNSHINE !!!!!!

We walked and talked and the children played, on what must have been the best day of the year so far. My head (bald) actually felt sore on Monday from a touch of sunburn !!! The excellent weather also encouraged the apes to come out and say hello. It was asked " are we watching them or are they watching us ? " Answers on a postcard please.....
