we awoke to an amazingly clear blue sky this morning - (the clearest so far) and our view of the ocean while eating breakfast was picturesque - flat and blue!!!
fanta sea last night was an amazing cultural experience - with pyrotechnics (i think that's how you spell it)- lots of colour and big bangs - and gorgeous baby elephants and tiger cubs. the show was a colourful, musical spectacular with magic people who turn into tigers!!!
we dressed in the traditional thai costumes - and head gear - and had photos taken:)
we thought about taking the baby elephants and tigers home - but then we decided that the seams of our bags might break:)
barb and julie had a relaxing massage this morning (to iron out those knots) nikki, renna and bubles sat at the bar beside the pool and drank yummy thai specials:)
today we went on an elephant trek - the best experience ever!!!
we were most fortunate to have a cheeky elephant carer - who insisted on teasing renna and bubbles with a lizard and putting it in his mouth pretending to eat it:) plenty of giggles and squeals - nearly wetting our nickers :)
we found out that the guide who took us around the elephant camp works from 7am til 5 sometimes 7pm and earns the same flat rate of 100 baht per day. this is equivalent to $4.44 a day!!!
this evening - we had a quick dip in the pool - before retiring to our rooms:)
