Coconut Thieves

Every evening My and I go outside by the river and play badminton or drink tea at a makeshift cafe run by two guys who are always watching Chinese martial arts films. The dogs, of course come with.

Like clockwork, the coconut boat comes by every afternoon to deliver the goods to the neighborhood. Every evening, My whispers to the dogs in french (they only understand french), "get the coconut!" It's incredibly amusing to see these two dogs sneak up to the pile of coconuts , snag some and trot back. They are GOOD. They haven't been caught once.

I suppose this practice of ordering dogs to steal things is unethical, among other things. But you can't argue with a pile of free coconuts.
