Chris and Chandi’s Worldwide Adventures

Well last Saturday (it is now Wednesday) we went on a day tour that was jam packed full of fun, kinda like a Boston Cream donut at good old Tim Hortons.

We started with a trip to an elephant farm out in the jungle. Here you get to ride around in the jungle on an elephant (in our case we got the crazy one) while feeding the little buggers bananas. It was pretty fun and Chandi was scared when we were riding on it which was even more fun! I got some great pictures of Chandi riding a little mini elephant and we fed him some bananas as well, they sure do love bananas!

Next we went to a hilltribe village in the mountains. It was a Karen hilltribe if people are interested. It was horrible. Basically they drive you out to this village and then the guide gives you a sob story about how they need money to provide transportation to schools for their kiddies and then they try and sell you stuff. It was pathetic. Not to knock the tribespeople or anything, but it is sad that this is what is called a "hilltribe tour".

Next we had another "delicious authentic thai lunch" which consisted of pineapple and watermelon (yum) and fried rice, not so yum. Not much to say about that.

Our last adventure (ha ha) of the day was bamboo rafting. Four of us and a guide piled onto this bamboo raft held together using old innertubes. It then proceeded to nearly sink, apparently I am a fat ass. The rafting was pretty fun until the monsoon started and we got soaked. My shirt got all nice and wet which allowed me to show off my sext body to all the young ladies on the tour though which was a bonus. The guide freaked the hell out of Chandi by splashing his pole in the water beside her and yelling "SNAKE" which was mildly amusing.

That night we went to a place recommended in the Lonely Planet for dinner, "Jerusalem Falafel". No, I am not making that name up! More to come of JF!!!

Bye for now
