Homepage > My Holidays Around Thailand > Kanchanaburi > Elephant Riding


One day I went on an elephant ride. Here I am sitting on an elephant, it was very hot and shakey. First I didn't really like it (scared) but later on I felt very happy, but if it only was for a short time. I couldn't be on there for long because it might make me sick!

Sometimes we went into the jungle, sometimes in the river. In the picture, they are playing with the water and splashing everyone. It's make me wet. See the man with an umbrella, that shows how hot it is there. We had to put sun-cream on to protect our skin.

Kanchanaburi is 130 kms west of Bangkok. You can go there by bus or train. It takes about 3 hours to get there. More information can be found at Lonely Planet.com and ThailandGuidebook.com
