First stop was Monkey Island (not actual name of island), and was welcomed by some Black Faced monkeys, one who was curious and walked right past me.

Next we hopped onto a small island. As we walked up the trail, there were 1,000s......... of large bats. The trail went just below them, about 30 inches above our head.

We kept going and made it to a look out.
We made it to the shore right near my stay. It was an awesome journey. I'm glad I took the boat and not the windy road...
Three of us me, Anrew, and ? (need to get his name)
Anrew then led the way off the beach and up the hill, while carrying my backpack. We made it to the top and I checked into my stay.
