Elephant Riding, Rafting, and Business Calls
As we’re discovering while living this lifestyle, many times the first “half” of the day is like holiday, and the later half is intensive work.
The first half of today started at 8:30am when we were picked up at our hotel and driven to an elephant camp where we got to ride a magnificent 17 year old male elephant named Song Chai through the jungle and across a river.
After that we were off to see some the Hmong and Karen hill tribes which are originally from Burma but have now settled in Thailand. Most of them make a living from small rice or vegetable farms and they keep chickens and pigs as well.
And then we rode an ingeniously crafted raft made of bamboo poles down a white water river.
At around 9pm the second part of our day started, that part having to do with work. Grace as always had to keep track of the markets while I had to work on some IT related stuff and a business call to the US at about midnight.
Now it’s nearly 2am and I’m just getting around to writing a post here. But that’s ok, tomorrow we can sleep in, and we might even head down to a spa in the leisure “half” of our day.
