We really felt like tourists today! We first went to the Chiang Mai Elephant camp. We had such a fun time! We took a ride through a jungle trail and watched them being washed in the river. We got to feed them sugar cane and bananas. I got hugs from two of them and one elephant put a hat on my head! I was so dirty after that! Then we watched the elephant show. They were twirling hoola hoops, playing harmonicas, playing soccer, and painting pictures. They are very talented!
Next we went to the orchid butterfly farm. There are rows and rows of hanging orchids in what passes for hot houses. They are open air and just covered in mesh. There were some really beautiful flowers. There were butterflies in an enclosure. One landed on my arm and I was able to capture a picture of it.
That night, we went to a cultural dinner and show. The food was fabulous-curry and fried bananas were some of the favorites. The show was very sparkly. Tim got video of the knife dance.
