First, we visited an elephant camp where we were able to pet, feed and ride elephants! Both Kyle and I even received "kisses" from an elephant! The end of the trunk pretty much encompassed my entire cheek (and then some) like a suction cup! We also watched the elephants perform, showing off their dancing moves (you really have to see it to believe it), painting artwork (a bird, a tree, and an elephant), play soccer, play basketball and generally entertain a crowd. These may be animals in captivity but they seemed like very happy and playful elephants!
Next, we rode in a wooden cart pulled by two white oxen. I think it's a good thing we weren't going far in the cart and a very good thing we weren't taking steep downhills with the braking system!
The grand finale for the day was the Tiger Kingdom where we were inside a cage with full grown tigers and were able to pet them!! Insane! It was pretty amazing.
Here are a few photos of the day. Again, the photos are limited to the ones taken on our iPhones so they aren't perfect!
Sorry for the poor formatting on blogger...the iPhone app isn't quite as good as editing on the laptop!
