Went to Breakfast World cafe for our breakfast. There were so so many different kinds of breakfasts! Stuck to the typical English breakfast though. Checked out all the different activities to do around Chiang Mai. Booked one for tomorrow - jungle trekking and then ziplining. Should be good. We wanted to go to Tiger Kingdom to see the tigers so we paid 1000 bahts (approx £20) each. But once we arrived we were told that it wasn't valid and we were only able to b...

Our last day with the elephants today :( The same routine as yesterday. Instead of having to wash and scrub three big elephants, we had a treat and washed a smaller elephant, Soi, who is only 6. After that we washed Monica, the baby elephant who is so cute! She rolled in poo after being washed so we had to wash her again! But of course we didn't mind! We walked the elephants for the last time. Unfortunately as we were nearing the river an elephant, Yitor, who ...

An early start. Again I didn't mind because of the elephants! Had some breakfast before having to do some poop scooping - yuck! We had to clean up both the elephant house and their sleeping area.

After the poop scooping we fed the elephants their supplements. Some had funny ways of eating. One threw t...

Had an early start but I didn't mind - it was elephant time! :D Had some breakfast at the hotel before leaving as it was included. Someone from elephantstay (where we're staying for the next three days/two nights) picked us up from our hotel. The traffic was absolutely terrible! It took almost twice the time it should have done and we finally arrived 15 minutes late but we didn't miss the induction thankfully. We had a very warm welcome when we arrived, the peo...

Not much news today really. Had an easy morning before leaving for Bangkok. As soon as we checked out of the hotel at midday the taxi driver came to pick us up. About one hour into the journey we pulled into a petrol station and the driver discovered something wrong with the wheel. Not sure what it was but he took a long while fixing it. Struggled to stay awake as it felt like forever! As we got nearer Bangkok the traffic was so so bad. There were so many car...
