Today is the day I've been lookin it's at to for a while, visiting elephants and tigers! We choose to do the same trip as Lauren and Shane as they said the animals were all well treated and the general experience was good! This meant we had a private car and guide for the day, which was good as the trip was around 3 hours to the boarder of Thailand and Burma. First st op the bridge over the river ????. This was an added bonus for the trip, as I've always hea...

In the evening we were going to go to the market again but it wasn't on. So we went to a bar and had a drink and a chat, we then went to the market and bought some drink as Hana was getting her results in - she passed! So we had a really random night of meeting new people, drinking rum (ag...
