February 25, 2026 - Our final activity was to bathe the elephants which was a blast! This photo was shot and shared by Jim McGaughan.
The highlight of this four week adventure was this visit to Elephant EcoValley. We weren't allowed to bring our good cameras and had to lock them in a locker so the majority of my pictures were taken on my cellphone. Kuet Chang, Mae Taeng District, Chiang Mai, Thailand
We learned about Mahouts who takes care of the elephants. Each Mahout works with one elephant and they form a tight bond. Visit to the open air Elephant museum. We got to make herb 'n' fruit vitamin balls which we fed the elephants. We also fed them bananas. Learned about how their poop is turned into paper. Bathed the elephants and at the end on command two of them sprayed us with water. Afterwards we had a nice lunch overlooking. For more information: elephantecovalley.com
