Al-Rasyid with the monkeys of Bukit Melawati

Five days ago I wrote a piece called Monkeying around at Kuala Selangor about playing with the monkeys on top the hill at Kuala Selangor. On Thursday I went againt up the hill bringing my wife and our one-year-old boy Al-Rasyid.


The last time we brought Rasyid here was about 3 weeks ago. But we reached the hill of Bukit Melawati nearly at dusk and the monkeys were already gone returning to wherever they actually stayed.


This time we arrived at around 6:30 pm. The monkeys were still aplenty...



At last Rasyid got to play with the monkeys here. The last time he was at Bukit Melawati when the monkeys were around was 3 months ago. At the time he has yet to walk and was not old enough to be able to interact.


This time he was already conscious about the existence of monkeys, able to differ it from cats which he often saw outside our house.



Oh. By the way he started walking exactly on 13th August 2010, the day he turned 10 months old.




Al-Rasyid might look disinterested in these pictures. The truth is he was rather astounded seeing the monkeys who were climbing the trees instead of the ones directly in front of his eyes.





One thing's for sure. He is not afraid of these creatures. Luckily the black-coloured monkeys are not aggresive.






One for the album before we left...
