Jeff's been doing the Asia thing for quite a while.
Most of it without his family in tow.
Over the years of travel, the boys have looked forward
to those running welcome hugs at SFO.
AND soon after those airport hugs & kisses come
the fun souvenirs that Daddy brings home from the 'far and wide'.
One of the reoccurring themes in Jeff's mementos of Asian travel
are of the amazing and powerful elephant.
We even have an ivory tusked little elephant (from India)
that has squeezed himself some
prime seating on our mantel in CA.
So with our move to Singapore
a trip to Thailand to see the elephants
AND RIDE the elephants was a must.
We started out slowly with riding the elephants at the pool.
Even Oscar joined in on this fun ride!
Charlie & Max ventured out with Daddy one afternoon
to meet their elephant to ride.
Like most of our vacations have been over this last year
our best combination for fun has been
lovely warm people (easily found in Thailand)
some sandy beach to play on
and a huge water slide to entertain.
Check, check, check.
Thailand and its elephants did not disappoint.
