Thanks Karla. When I was little, the Mumbai zoo had elephant rides. Apparently I screamed my head off - not that I remember. But my dare-devil daughter absolutely loved it. Thanks for visiting my blog.
Thanks Beachlover. Not sure exactly what the painting means, but elephants are an integral part of Indian culture. I think painting them just signifies them as important and loved. Thanks for visiting.
You can still do rides in Jaipur - recently my class had another re-union there and they have some fabulous pics of elephant rides. I also think that the Kaziranga game sanctuary in Assam has an elephant safari. Jaipur and Kaziranga are on my "places to see" list.
have you been in one of those? interesting!

Thanks Roger.
DeleteI have been on elephants too when I was little. You can go on rides in villages some ten years ago. But now I see them only in temples :(

DeleteAnd it's really nice to see you here Ruby. Thanks so much for always dropping by and commenting.
DeleteI bet riding on an elephant is a bumpy ride!
ReplyDeleteAnd high up off the ground and pretty scary too.
