With the business of the New Year now behind us, we have been looking to indulge our own need for adventure. To that end we are considering a visit to Pai or Mae Hong Son. Yesterday, however, my wife decided that we should go ride an elephant. One of those things that every tourist does but longtime residents and locals often neglect to indulge in. We quite enjoyed our elephant ride and it was interesting to observe the tourists and visit with our mahout. Taking pictures from the undulating back of an elephant was a new experience for me. A good time was had by all and I recommend getting on the back of an elephant if you have a chance.
We also took Cookie to a nearby waterfall but those pictures must wait for another day. Todays topic is riding elephants so with no further adieu...

Our village of Wang Pho has two elephant riding attractions , and Ciejay and me went for a ride on one occasion , I really enjoyed it , but Ciejay was not thrilled and was over come by the elephant in front of us that was always pooping,and she did not like the constant swaying ,she said made her car sick (go figure that one .) In a previous post I wrote a post called Swimming with the Elephants , you might like to take a look see. Great pics by the way ,

I would have posted sooner but my Macbook decided to die, yet again, leaving me with no access to your site as its back on the Gray list for some reason and blocked to my work pc.
I would check if its another HTML problem but as there is no decent software available for Macs that I can use I am stuck until my new Dell laptop arrives next week. (blog about crappy Macs coming soon!!!)
