Our Leaving Ceremony

When it was time for us to leave the Mahout camp they gave us a special leaving ceremony. A monk made lots of prayers and offerings - even a pigs head! Luckily we didn't have to eat it!

They tied special strings around our wrists and said prayers to wish us health and safety for our lives!
 We were sad to say goodbye to our mahouts and our lovely elephants. xx
