Photos from Kanchanaburi

We had lunch on a floating pavilion that was pulled along by this little boat. As you can see, the scenery around us was beautiful! This is the River Kwai, by the way.


The next day, we rafter down the Riber Kwai on bamboo rafts.


The Taweechai Elephant Camp is located in the midst of the Pang Chang community, and there were several families living in huts like this. We rode through their neighborhood on the elephants!


You were supposed to pay 20 Baht to take a photo of this elephant, but I took this when the guy wasn't looking (obviously). Oops! But I don't feel bad... they'll do anything to suck the money out of foreigner's wallets.


The elephants that we rode! As you can see, each one has a guide/trainer and a bench for 2 people to sit on.
