Trekking in the Jungle - OMG!
... for our pack-up lunch, and walking poles – all done in record time and with one huge machete knife! Lots of jungle stories too; did you know that if you accidently eat a poisonous mushroom, you must immediately eat a turtle’s head (of course, you’ll have one running around the garden somewhere) and the turtle will take away all the poison from your body! There’s a tree that laughs too if you tickle it’s ...
I Do Hope We Get A Small Elephant....
... His 20 minute talk is littered with jokes and he finishes the talk by warning us that he is about to turn around and sit down. It was very funny but you had to be there...!
We arrive and although we were expecting to see elephants, the sight that greets us is still a shock to the system. In front of us their are 21 elephants of varying sizes, including 3 under 7 years and 1 pregnant lady, who at 10 months into her pregnancy, still has 12-14 months to go! It is ...
Fun in the jungle

Their trunks are just incredible, so strong and yet able to hold 3 tiny bananas without squashing them, and the very end part is used almost like fingers.
After having lunch ourselves, our next job is to wash the elephants! ...
Spicy Villa Ecolodge
... off to bamboo rafting which was a great scenic ride. We ride for an hour and when we reached our stop there was a nice BBQ lunch. We couldn't do tubing since the water was too deep from the rain last night. So we went to ride the elephants one more time. We had a very nice stay at Spicy but I'm looking forward to going back to the hotel tonight and getting in a soft bed. Also it's time to have the hotel launder our clothes. Tried to book ...
