Totally understand why you wanted to go see the snow monkeys
I have seen many pictures of the snow monkeys and I have also felt that I would like to see them. So I totally understand why you went there now that you had the chance. Good for you that they were still there although it was late in the season.

Totally understand wy you wanted to see the snow monkeys
