The highlight of our Nagano trip was going to see the snow monkeys. You hike about a mile or so into the forest to find the monkeys hanging out at a natural hot spring and they are EVERYWHERE!! It was kind of unnerving at first, because they are just roaming everywhere, but then you get past the fact that there are monkeys everywhere and it just becomes the coolest thing ever. Kailey still talks about how one monkey patted her on her "bum-bum!" Here are a couple of pictures from our adventure with the snow monkeys!

It is amazing at how close you can get to the monkeys and they just don't even pay attention to you! |
