2012~2013 Japan Trip - Man V.S. Monkey

I have seen the infamous hot spring Monkeys during my trip this/last year. Let the journey begin.

Before you enter the Monkey park, I would strongly suggest that you do not bring a plastic bag.

Why?

The following shows the outcome of my plastic bag...

One of the hot spring monkeys have snatched my plastic bag away.
(There goes my fruit-flavoured sweets~~~)

Besides for the rule of not to carry a plastic bag, here are some other rules that one would have to take note.


Here are some photos of the hot spring Monkeys.
