A wonderful moment of sharing. The keepers are really friendly. The elephants enjoy it and are not forced. Obviously, these are animals rescued from circuses or forced labor, so they are used to humans, but you can see that they are happy.

Everything was as planned and expected. The pick up and drop off at the hotel was timely and efficient. The half day excursion was worth it. Learning about the elephants, feeding the elephants, waging then in the pond just to moisturize their skin with a mud rub down just to wash them down again. A great experience. The cooking was good with the exception that not everyone got to participate in the actual cooking. Meal was good.
