T.E.C.C - most amazing elephanty day ever
... a little bit of time getting to know the ellies, the commands and practiced getting on and off the creatures. This is seriously hard work and involves shouting a command 'song soorng' which gets the elephant to raise their right leg, you then use this for a leg up as you grab onto the ears and pull yourself up. Exhausting! In case any budding mahouts are out there....here are the commands we learnt although the elephant ...

We bathed with them three times a day, splashing each other and the tourists who came to watch, and scrubbing them clean. The first time we went down to the water to bathe there was a snake swimming in the water, but one of the mahouts threw a stone at it.
