My grandpa and I rode the elephant. I have no idea where this happened. My grandma's photo album says that we were on a road trip from Kansas to Wisconsin.
I got to ride an elephant at the Tadmor Shrine Circus. I got to sit in front and pet its head. It was very dry and hairy, and surprisingly tosses you back and forth a lot. It was fun, but I'm glad we don't ride elephants for regular transportation.. my legs would kill me! lol
In the summer of 2015, when I traveled to India with 11 other girl-guides and four leaders, we went for an elephant ride up to the Amber Fort. It was a truly brilliant experience, and I can heartily recommend it to any other India-goers!
During my time working at the conservation I got one chance to ride an elephant. I rode him while we were giving them a bath and it was amazing. He got up and walked and I felt so high in the sky and it was an amazing feeling!
While riding the elephant the path was too small; the driver had the elephant fell a tree. It was very humbling to watch the elephant step on the tree and bring it down with no effort.
