tusks and trust....

I almost cried over my eggs with cheese... little ball of bread... juice... fruit...jelly ... and pot of coffee.. mmm mmm We were all up and dressed and ready to go about 9.. and off we went in two vans to the Elephants. Michelle was in town for the day, so Jody was our guide. Almost immediately she recognized me and asked of the group who took the ele's up the hill last year. I think they don't go there often.... usually walk down and come back by the river. Anyway, I told her that we were all very much together and that the elephant experience had effected us all. I do think she scared the group a little and they were timid when it came to feeding. We fed in the am and took them to the water twice. A few things are different. 1. they have a mud puddle area that the little ones play in .. they are histerical.. they push and shove each other and slide into the mud and then get up and climb in each other.. the play group are about 2 or 3... sweet. I did not see Hope since he was off to Elephant Haven.. but I gues he is a pest since they now have a big bell on him so folks know where he is. Lunch was good and I had a couple of cups of red lable tea...... I remembered that we like that. They did not have much in the store. I bought a shirt ..a bag... an elephant bell for Lady.. and a beer. I didn't watch the movie.. once was on to many times. Everyone got in to wash and enjoy the experience. I took more pictures.... When we returned I had my eggplant and peanut sauce along with nuts and beer and mixed veggies and rice. After dinner we started to play farkle.. if I wrote to you at the nest.. it was between farkle rolls... we laughed and laughed... and I won three games because I followed the no greed way... if I scored with three die.. I quit.. it was one of those things that you had to be there.. but I could hear the posse.. laughing as we did many times on our journey. It was interesting because the group was not the folks that I would have picked to spend the enveing with.. but we laughed. One of the things we decided was that there were small critters in the back end of the elephant with mellon ballers.. .. creating the perfectly round organic droppings. That was about the only comment that was negative.. oh.. one of the floaters just hit my leg... a great time....
This morning we got up at 6 and went out and fed the monks.. there were about 10 that came by for us..again a nice time. On my next post.. I will have pictures.. I am off to the sunday market and just did not want to care the camera.... love to all (ps.. the spell check has not worked in days)
