Guess we will be seeing each other, we, my wife and I are on that trip.

For info just do a google search on Mona Isl, also known as the Monkey Isl
(translated).

Mona is known as the Galapagos of the Carib.

Monkey is mono in Spanish, not mona. Big difference.

The island's original inhabitants, pre-Columbian Taino, called it "Amona"
which, surprisingly, is Taino for "I call you my friend because I'm pulling
your leg."

Please excuse my word 'translation'.

Mona Isl is also known as Monkey Isl way back when.

Leg pulling is allowed (:))
