im gonna be very sad the day i find myself living in a place where i can't send a kid up a tree to fetch me some coconuts. actually drinking the young coconut (in pic) is not as popular as you may think. they usually wait until they mature and fall to the ground where they are then used as pig food, snacks, and all of your coconut cream sauces come from the mature nuts. but every once in a while ill get a kid to drop down a bunch and then we have a big coconut smashing/drinking party. its great. yes this kid is about 50 feet up in the air and yes i climbed a coconut tree and yes i got the nuts and yes i scraped and chafed just about my entire body in the process. no i will not climb a tree that high. this is one of those tall trees in the background of the cricket picture below.
