Dancing with Elephants

Oh, yes we did!!!! Hey, the music was so good, we couldn't resist!! At this point, it was our 3rd or 4th day into the trip...the other people on our tour (I'm convinced) probably thought we were on drugs.  But we definately kept things lively, and eventually they affectionately nicknamed us "The Kids" - which we gladly accepted. :) For centuries, Indian royalty has embellished elephants - historically used as a regal mode of transportation.  It was so cool to see the gorgeous, bright colors on such big, beautiful creatures. And they seemed to be pretty content, no weird animal cruelty stuff going on that we could see.
