I don’t know how, but we did it. Panting and perspiring, we made it to the top.
Really.
Chocolate hills PROOF. And 1776 of them, too.
We would like to thank our families and friends who have supported us through this very difficult journey…
Can you believe, before a massive geologic shift, all of this used to be underwater? (That’s what the plaque says)
And that these “hills” are actually coral reefs that erupted from the sea?
The green finishing touches are courtesy of the wind, water and rain over hundred of thousands of years.
Well, you do now.
Amazing, huh?
Another amazing thing is this little Tarsier creature. It is the tiniest primate to date and resembles a minikin monkey on an overdose of “E.” Also (listen to this), the size of the tarsier’s brain is the equivalent size of its eyeball.
Approximately 16mm in diameter.
On second thought, I can name a number of people even more amazing than the tarsier, with the size of their entire brains much smaller than a nostril.
It tickles!!! Take it off! Take it off!!!
Forgive me, but I just HAVE to do this. Hahaha!
This little tarsier is dozing off
This little tarsier is trying to swallow a cricket
And this is my friend Jeremy trying to be a little tarsier!
