March 13th was Eli Monkeys birthday, but since it rained all last weekend, the birthday celebrations were washed out. Thankfully, Sirus Monkey had back up plans for this weekend!
First stop train station!
Once on the train, Eli and Sirus quietly watched the scenery go by.
Second stop, Cambridge!
Sirus Monkey, the artist that he is, wanted to stop and watch the Spray Paint Artist in Harvard Square.
Spray Paint is a bit too messy for sock monkeys so even though Sirus wanted to join in, he had to just watch. There are plenty of crayons and paints for him to use at home.

The entrance to Cambridge Commons, where Eli and Sirus Monkey had their very first date. Thankfully, the weather was much nicer this time!
Woo hoo! Cannons!
Some nice relaxing in the gorgeous spring sun.
This statue stands near the parks entrance.
On the back, it has the following saying:
Sirus Monkey thought that it was very important, because Sirus Monkey was a homeless, starving monkey for a while.
After the reminiscing, Eli Monkey wanted to show off where he goes to college.
Eli is a very smart monkey, he's the only sock monkey student at Harvard.

That doesn't stop him from being goofy though!
"Look Mom! I got into Harvard!"

Harvard Yard, with it's complete lack of parking spaces.
After the brief tour of Eli's campus, it was off to see some of the quirky shops Cambridge is famous for.
At the Curious George Bookstore.
Maybe someday there will be a Monkeyville bookstore!

All the running around made the monkeys (and human follower) tired, so it was time to head home.
Except, there were two last surprises for Eli Monkey
The first was a present from Sirus Monkey, which Eli was happy to model, and the second was a cake just for him.
He looks so young for all of those candles, I guess sock monkeys age well!
Sirus Monkey spied the cherry on the cake and shouted:

Tisk, tisk, naughty monkey.
