Elephant Friends

We had been debating going to an Elephant Sanctuary since booking our trip. The one we chose is a new sanctuary and has no chains and no riding policies. We learned about each elephant and their story (used for logging, elephant rides, etc). We also learned about the different elephant personalities and likes before we got up close to them.

When the elephants first appeared, Aurora was very excited and yelled out and bounced around in Stefan’s arms. She only got a bit scared once, when she was being sniffed by a curious trunk! We didn’t put her in the mud bath or rinsing pond with the elephants but she enjoyed watching safely from the bank.

The lunch served included spring rolls and watermelon so she was very pleased for that!Læs mere
