After following a Northern Thai man as he bushwhacked through random hillsides, followed elephant footprints in the mud, and walked through rediculously huge spider webs -- also known as TREKKING-- we have now arrived in Lampang. We went to the Elephant Conservation Center and watched as the amazing creatures showed off their skills. We now know that:
1) Elephants can swim
2) Elephants can paint (sooo artistic!!!)
3) Elephants can make music
4) Elephants can bow elegantly to recieve praise
5) Elephants can stack logs with their tusks/trunks
6) Elephants can use their trunks as elevators for humans who wish to mount them
7) Boy elephants have impressively large unmentionable parts (You'll see, Gary!)
8) Elephants understand human communication

9) When elephants eat sugar cane it sounds like they are snapping a 2x4 over their knees-- impressive!!
10) Elephants are much smarter than humans!!!
Tomorrow we are off to Nam Nao National Park where we can't wait to see some monkeys, jackals, and wild boars.
