Riding an elephant is still riding an elephant... So the key is to have a discerning eye to choose a legitimate elephant camp, don't worry about the price, and believe that the law of everything in this world is that the price is high and the goods are worth it. The mother said that the jungle elephant ride they had a few years ago cost 1,700 baht per person, which is almost twice as high as Yunluo and An Chuyu's.

But the elephant riding she talked about is the real elephant riding: one person and one elephant, everyone has to change into the clothes of the local people, and then sit directly on the elephant's flat head to endure the pricking of its long hair like steel wires, and the jungle they cross for more than an hour is really like the ones in Lost in Thailand!

(Riding a bareback elephant is just like the guy wearing a straw hat in the picture of Yunluo. The hair on the elephants' heads really looks like short, thick brown hairs, thick and hard. It is said that wearing their special clothes will prick your buttocks. But is this the real feeling of riding an elephant? o(n_n)o).

Now back to the point, the girls started to bathe the baby elephant! Do you know why the camera is full of girls? Hehe, because the boy and his mother took photos with the baby elephant... Be careful! This naughty big guy is not so docile and obedient. Hmm, is it going to stand up? Is it satisfied with just a wash?

No, no, is it turning over? Turning over to get the other side washed. Smart, right? Okay, now it is really washed clean. "Well, the little elephant knows how to be grateful. Come, let me kiss you!" Woo, Yunluo also wants to be kissed, but it only recognizes those who work hard.

The girls walked by and stretched out their trunks to kiss him loudly. But a boy got wet as soon as he approached him, and Yunluo, who was caught off guard, also got his lens wet. What a mischievous elf! But it could also be the elephant trainer who was playing tricks on him. Who knows what hints they had to each other...

After the kiss, it played a melodious harmonica for Yunluo and An Chuyu. It also sang during the performance. However, during the whole performance, it followed its owner like a child. When the owner went ashore, it went ashore. When the owner went down the slope to get something, it immediately left Yunluo and An Chuyu behind and followed him down the slope...

After taking a bath, the second step is to feed the elephants in the forest. Everyone can get a small plastic bucket filled with bananas and sugar cane. The elephants are very quick to ask for food. As soon as you give it to them, their long trunks will stretch out again. Yunluo's friend is too honest. She will concentrate on feeding when you ask her to.

So in a short while, all her bananas and sugar canes were cheated away by the elephant. Yunluo put the bucket at her feet for taking pictures, so in the blink of an eye, it was stolen by the naughty little elephant. Woohoo, Yunluo has not yet experienced the joy of feeding you!

Who said that baby elephants have weak spleens and stomachs? It's best to peel the banana peels before feeding them... This guy just keeps begging for food and won't put on a show at all! "Yunluo, Yu'er, can you please stop feeding it alone? Yunluo's bucket is almost empty!"

Well, since there is nothing to feed, Yunluo went to watch its performance. This is a hug! Oh, right. Just now, the girl's slippers were sniffed by the cute little elephant for a long time, and the girl was so anxious that she kept shouting "Yunluo, this is a fake flower!" My friend said that the elephant was very bad, and refused to put a hat on her properly and always teased her (*^__^*).

Yunluo saw that it was really performing. The swinging of its long nose and the movement of its four legs were very coordinated and rhythmic. Its appearance and demeanor were also very similar to the little black maid beside Scarlett in Gone with the Wind. That girl also twisted her body while doing everything, and kept babbling...

Another kiss! Haha, did you notice? When baby elephants grow up to be big elephants, their eyes turn blood red. This elephant is performing very hard. Although most of the time it asks for food while performing. o(n_n)o It's so cute when it takes a break from its busy schedule! After feeding and patting, Yunluo and An Chuyu are ready to ride the elephant through the jungle.

Well, these elephants used for riding are real elephants. They are so big that we have to climb onto a tree house platform before riding. When they walked in, Yunluo was surprised to find that their big ears were torn, and some of them were almost torn into two pieces of rags!

The elephants were really wrinkled when viewed up close, and their large, thin ears were covered with spots. Why did their ears look like they were gnawed by rats? Could it be that they were really torn by their owners? (Yun Luo later discovered that the elephant trainers used the trick of tearing the ears to order the elephants to obey...)

We started our journey, wading through water and climbing up the hill. After a round, we were crossing the jungle. Who can blame you for not having more imagination than them? (*^__^*) It seems that we should have chosen Maesa Elephant Camp, because it is the largest elephant training school in Chiang Mai. It is said that the scenery there is more ideal, and sitting on an elephant will give you the feeling of trekking through mountains and rivers.

The pleasure of galloping through the jungle... Yunluo had never known that elephants actually liked to eat bamboo leaves. Yunluo's mother, they ate all the big bamboos along the way to death, and this large bamboo forest is completely devoid of bamboo leaves... It seems that this small mountain village is being rebuilt, and those sunny yellow flowers blooming on the bare poles may have been newly planted this year.

That's why they are all standing in a row without any green leaves. Chiang Mai's tourism industry has also been developed wholeheartedly. Almost all the people in Chiang Mai are serving the tourism industry, including those colorful monks who are inevitably caught in the camera...

Well, the half-day jungle elephant ride is over (the activity lasted less than three hours, but the round trip took more than two hours). Next, we are going to play the most fun jungle leap! The creator who first built this leap game is undoubtedly a genius, but genius also needs the necessary condition of geographical advantage to cooperate.

The main reason why the mountainous area of ​​Chiang Mai can turn everyone into an ape is that there are big trees in the tropical forests. There are towering trees that are 50 to 60 meters or even hundreds of meters high. Even if 20 to 30 people are fully armed and squeezed up to them, they can only shake slightly. Only with so many big trees like this can Yunluo and An Chuyu have the opportunity to fly through the jungle.

I really screamed like a jungle monkey. It's not as scary as you might imagine. Once you pass the first zipline and tree rappel, you can enjoy the joy of flying and zipping through the jungle! The difference between a few dozen meters and eight or nine hundred meters is just the time it takes to fly.

It doesn't increase the thrill of the game. Tree rappelling is a bit scary, mainly because the speed is too fast and you will have a very strong sense of weightlessness, as if you were thrown down from the top of the tree to the ground at a very high speed. But those walking on steel cables, walking on single-plank bridges, aerial suspension bridges, aerial skateboards, spiral stairs, and tree ladders are just a little scary to hear and see.

Your body is firmly tied to the big iron rope above your head. Even if you are thrown off these steel wires and wood, there will be no real disaster. It's just that there are a lot of people playing flying during the New Year, and a group of people are so crowded walking on these narrow things that they will shake violently.

Sometimes there are always a few screaming cowards in front of you who are reluctant to move forward. When you stand on those steel wires and wood, you will be severely unbalanced and fall left and right. You feel that you will be shaken down by them at any time...

But all of this is just to increase the excitement of your blood boiling. In addition to being protected by the big iron ropes that are firmly pulled at all times, Yunluo and An Chuyu are also protected and guided by five or six real jungle flyers at all times! They will tie the safety ropes for every shuttle flight of Yunluo and An Chuyu and then hold them up.

One by one, they were sent out of the platform. Someone at the end of the platform would hold Yunluo and An Chuyu tightly. Occasionally, a few of them would get stuck at the low arc of the long rope and couldn't get over. These flying people would fly over and hang you on themselves for a real three-way flight... There was a "flying person" that day.

I particularly like our Yuer. I gave her a "cute" nickname when we first flew (these flyers can speak a few simple Chinese sentences. They will tell you "A little bit of Chinese, just a little bit!" o(n_n)o) and then I would come to see her off every time it was Yunluo and Anchu's turn.

He stared at our friend and kept calling him "Kai'ai" and "Mom". He said, "There are two moms, one is Ke'ai and the other is Yunluo. Yunluo and An Chuyu are one family!" The "one" he mentioned was the dimples on our lips. His equally young and playful companions looked at Yunluo and An Chuyu with an apologetic look and said, "He is a hooligan!"

Haha, it can be seen that this "hooligan" really likes this chubby little cutie from Yunluo's family. During the break, he ran over and took Yunluo's mobile phone, and took some interesting photos of Yu'er with a beautiful heart shape torn from emerald green leaves, which made Yunluo feel very impressed by his originality and ingenuity...

They are really cute and dedicated guys. They are very good at picking up and dropping off people every time. Although there will be some deliberately naughty and rapid stimulation when they are pulling the rope to lower Yunluo and An Chuyu, the one supporting them from below will definitely hold Yunluo and An Chuyu's bodies very securely.

Even though the momentum of some of them was strong enough to make him spin around, it felt like the intensity of the work of these pilots was quite huge. They had to lift up those adults and children who were not tall enough to fasten them before each flight, and they had to do the same when they got them down from another tree platform...

Yunluo and An Chuyu played for three hours. There are 49 tree house platforms in total, and the flying distance is 1,900 meters. How much energy does it take for these young people to be picked up and dropped off in a car? Well, this time, the jungle flying cannot bring a camera. All the pictures of Yunluo and An Chuyu were taken by the husband with his mobile phone.

He should have taken a few videos, because the pictures taken with his phone could not show the thrill and fun of this game. How high is the tree platform? When Yunluo and An Chuyu played the tree rappelling, they fell straight down like flying. But the pictures can't show it at all, because it is horizontal and static.

No matter how tall the tree is, you are standing at the same height as it. No matter how fast it is, it will stop with a click. Yunluo and An Chu met a pair of guys in the Green Hat Team who looked like Chinese people, listened and watched, but they were very unlike Chinese people. They wore a miniature camera on their chests before playing.

It is estimated that the footage captured by that thing can reproduce the essence of this game (the green hat refers to the green disposable hood inside the helmet, and different teams have hoods of different colors. The two guys who look like Chinese but don't look like Chinese have always been the object of curiosity for the children. Because the conversations between the two are in English, they can talk to Yunluo and An Chuyu.

They speak fluent Mandarin. They are handsome, elegant, adventurous, and polite, a bit like Koreans. They are probably a couple born in the 90s who lived abroad since childhood, that is, they went abroad after finishing junior high school! ) In fact, compared to the thrilling and fun of this game, Yunluo was more impressed by the big trees that were built with platforms.

There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!

How could they be so tall and powerful? Some of them had really penetrated deep into the blue sky. If Yunluo could climb to the top of the tree, he believed that he could touch the blue sky that looked like a pure doll with just a lift of his hand. The blue sky was so clean and ethereal that it was extremely beautiful. As he looked at it, Yunluo was so mesmerized that he forgot where he was...

Yunluo chose a very interesting game for the first day of the Lunar New Year. Yuer said that next time she comes to Chiang Mai, she will take her brothers to play flying and let Yunluo take the elders and adults to visit the temples... They have been flying for three hours straight, and their stomachs have long been deflated by flying. She still doesn't have enough fun flying! Okay. Let's go to another place to fly next time.

Fly a longer and farther (*^__^*) aerial suspension bridge. The longest zipline is advertised to be 800 meters or 900 meters long, but Yunluo and An Chuyu secretly told the young flyer, "It's 800 meters, but in reality, it's not." Similarly, there are 49 tree house platforms, and it takes a full circle to return to the bottom of the mountain, but in reality, there are some platforms along the way for Yunluo and An Chuyu to walk around o(n_n)o.

Go down the flying ladder and cross the single-plank bridge. It is a real single-plank bridge, and the tree ladder is also very high and shaky. But because there are dense trees all around, there is no sense of adventure at all. These games are just to relieve Yunluo and Anchu's fatigue! The long zipline is really not dangerous at all. Just lift your feet high when you are about to reach it.

You can enjoy the thrill of flying! But Yunluo loves to spin while flying, sometimes right side up and sometimes backwards o(n_n)o You see how happy his friends are, their eyes are shining throughout the whole journey, so happy! The extremely high and spiral tree staircase. For us, these are all a piece of cake!

The only thing that can make us scream loudly is below (*^__^*) This is the extreme tree rappel! Oh my god, the guy holding the rope just releases the rope. Yunluo and An Chuyu fell directly from the high tree platform, and they felt like they would be smashed into meat patties! This game can actually be played many times.

Because there are so many towering trees here, you can do tree rappelling as long as you are tall enough (*^__^*) Hehehe... My friend is really bold. She actually asked the guy above to stop in mid-air before rappelling because she wanted to be photographed! This time she was the first to do it. Yunluo and An Chuyu thought they would be hung upside down. If they were photographed, they would be real rappers.

During the few days in Chiang Mai, the arrival of evening every day was the time for Yunluo, An Chuyu and their family to truly relax and unwind, because by then the children had finished their homework and the daily activities arranged by Yunluo had also ended. We were either sent back to the hotel to rest or went directly to its ancient city.

The night in Chiang Mai is very charming. Because it is also colorful and brilliant, it is a place full of temptations, tempting every organ in our body. The eyes are attracted by the gorgeous colors: piles of red, yellow, green and purple fresh fruits shining brightly under the orange lights on the roadside.

The beautiful night stalls in the street market are filled with Thai long skirts and their super exaggerated fat-butt culottes; rows of colorful fabrics that are enough to dazzle the eyes, and pots of fresh green flowers and plants dotted in front of the shops; arched flower corridors, colorful crowds, glazed lights, and gilded food; all kinds of elephants, some honest and some naughty.

Some are on hanging T-shirts, some are on artists' drawing papers, some are printed on postcards of all sizes, some are decorated in a variety of shop windows, and more are made into handicrafts of various materials and scattered in every corner of the street... It is impossible to see all of this with your eyes alone.

Many times, the nose and ears seem to be more excited. They are attracted by various aromas and sounds, and are so excited that they turn their heads and nod their heads. They are often fascinated by the sour and sweet freshly squeezed juice stalls, and order their eyes to choose red watermelons, strawberries, yellow mangoes, oranges, green apples, cantaloupes, or simply have a glass of their mixed juice first!

The fragrant Thai sausages were grilled on the charcoal fire, emitting thick smoke. The fried rice and fried noodles were always seen every five steps, and the aroma kept rushing towards your nose. There were also Indian flatbreads that could be added with various fruits, eggs, and cheese, and the sticky and sweet mango rice...

How could these fruit-made biscuits, rice, and juice be so delicious? They made Yunluo and An Chuyu's eyes, noses, mouths, ears, and hearts jump with excitement. So Yunluo and An Chuyu wandered to the streets every night, along the long and short streets filled with colorful songthaews and tuk-tuks.

I wandered around casually until the moon was high and the night was deep, and then I returned tired and satisfied! There is such a night market every day on Changkang Road, which leads directly to the ancient city. Every time the sun sets, they are lined up into long roadside stalls. Although the goods in the night market are not beautiful and exquisite, they are more or less for us who are seeing it for the first time. (To be continued..)
