A lucky little Monkey

In Belgium, they have tons of town squares surrounded by buildings and are called the Grand-Place, and in the Grand-Place in Mons there is a little brass monkey whose head you are supposed to rub for good luck (with your left hand apparently!) It seemed a bit silly, but everyone was coming and doing it too, and they definitely weren't tourists! I got this photo of Becky (the Cheethams oldest daughter) rubbing the head of the monkey - we all agreed it was a silly photo but still, I needed to get evidence of us being non-touristy for once!
