点评:Once in a Lifetime Opportunity to interact with the largest mammals on Earth. This wonderful place is a perfect sanctuary for elephants who have been retired and rescued from various forms of troubled lives. The keepers are kind and knowledgeable and fun- and we are so grateful to our B&B hostess (Jims Guesthouse) for suggesting this day outing just 45 minutes from Kanchanaburi.
The elephants spend all their time eating so it was easy and fun to feed them watermelons, sugar cane stalks (which we helped to cut) and for the elderly, sticky rice balls very similar to risotto which we also helped to make.
We stayed all day and participated in their afternoon wash-down in the river. We even got big kisses on cheeks and necks from their trunks.
A magical day we will never forget. Don’t miss this one!!!!!

大象们把所有时间都花在吃东西上,所以给它们喂西瓜、甘蔗秆(我们帮忙切的),以及给老象喂类似意大利烩饭的糯米团(我们也帮忙做了),既轻松又有趣。
我们待了一整天,还参加了它们下午在河里洗漱的活动。它们的鼻子甚至在我们脸颊和脖子上留下了深深的吻。
这真是一个神奇的日子,我们永远不会忘记。千万不要错过!
