baboon

This fellow and his cohorts were camped on the side of the road as we exited Cape Point Nature Reserve. An ecstatic Laura finally got a glimpse of some true wild life in Southern Africa, my brother excluded. Baboon actually attempted to open my dad's passenger door * cut to Jurassic Park - "they opening doors now" and I was convinced that the primate wanted to get it on with my pop because the ape was errr slightly aroused..

I'm not sure Crest Whitestrips will help here. Perhaps the industrial strength Zoom procedure that all of the Hollywood peeps use would help a bit. Wow, I feel like a dentist looking at this. hehe
