River Lodge Lampang

The 8hour bus journey was worth it as we made our way to the elephant sanctuary. I had the pleasure to watch them eat and wash in a huge river pics on facebook! they are suck smart animals they came out and had loads of water in there trunks and covered us in it when they got out luckie my camera werent wet though!! then tabia and I rode on one for 45minutes this was ****ing scarey at first but u got use to the feeling your were going to fall off and then it walk across you ...

... an eley till your up there...funny thing she is the biggest of all the eley's here. At some point we were on a highway walking along and then a semi comes up the road...well...the eleys very smartly walk to the side of the road....they all gathered in a gaggle...and they started to grunt and groan and mine was swaying her head left and right .....making weird sounds....remember I am on her head....nice ride....did I mention my ass hurt....any additional movement other ...

She Makes a step by bending her front leg and you climb up with a lift from her on her neck and sit there...quite amazing...you drop something they go and get it for you and hand it to you with the trunk....They turn on the water tap and get a drink...go over raise a flag...sit down ...

... taksimetrov. 5. Taksiji na Tajskem so enaki kot drugod po svetu, le da jih v toliksnem stevilu kot jih je v Bangkoku midva nikoli nikjer drugje nisva videla. Prakticno vec kot polovica vseh avtomobilov v Bangkoku je taksijev in jih vsi mnozicno uporabljajo. Voznja na taksimeter je cenovno ugodna, saj zacetek voznje stane 0.80 evra, nato pa vsak nadaljnji kilometer pa 5 centov evra. Dodatno se zaracunava cas voznje, saj je v Bangkoku mogoce za 5km voznje zlahka porabiti eno ...

... elephants in Chiang Mai so ofted on out of here. The one thing we did enjoy was strangely - bowling! Yes a random place had a bowling alley. We played the first night we got there with me beating Meals 2-1 only the following day to get thrashed 3-0 by her. Other than that nothing is here or happened for us. Moving on up to Chiang Mai.

Neither Travis nor I could figure out how to put on our pants, so it definitely took more than one minute, and when we emerged from the bathrooms everyone else had already gone to the show grounds. At this point I was mildly stressed and hoping that I hadn't caused too much trouble. We arrived at what was effectively the "mahout spot" and the other mahouts-in-training were standing about waiting for their ...

... schedule very carefully but I was pretty sure we were going to meet our elephants and then watch the elephant show. The reality turned out to be a little different. The mahout kicked the elephant's front leg and said something unintelligible. The elephant lifted it's leg. He wanted me to climb the elephant. We were getting straight down to business. The elephant suddenly looked very tall. I placed my foot in the crook of the elephant ...

I'm in the habit of gazing into space. I don't start it intentionaly, and I suppose that is what makes it a habit, but it consumes a lot of time. Some would say I have a problem. People do strange things. I met this guy from Etheopia who has been traveling for ten years. We are now friends, sort of. For a reason he refuses to reveal, Mike rolls pieces of paper and sticks them in his nostrels. My theory is that he does it to throw people off ...
