I'm off to see the wizard

What a day

I woke up at around 10 after my first full night of sleep in almost a week and went a booked a half day tour. I grabbed some breakdast at the resort restaurant, pork fried rice and as soon as I was done eating the minibus came to pick us up for the tour. First we headed to the elephant park to go for a 30 min elephant ride, about half way throught the ride the driver/guide got off to take pictures of us on it and so we got to climb down out of the seat and sit on its head like they do. Graham went first and then I went but after the guy took the pictures of me he climbed back on into my seat and I got to stay on the neck/head of the elephant for the rest of the time. It was so much fun and we trekked through a little stream that came off of a waterfall. After that we hopped into the back of a pick up that had benches attached and went to the Aquarium. The place was really dark and dingy but they had some nice fish and I took tonnes of pictures for Robbie. At the same place they had a tiger and bird show but before the show I got to feed a baby tiger. It sat in my lap and drank from a bottle while pulling on my arm with its paws. The little guy was so cute and very strong, I wanted to kidnap him and bring him home. The show was alright the birds were funny, they rode bikes on a tightrope and did math. And the tigers jumped through flaming hoops and sat up all pretty. Next we went for authentic thai food, which was very tasty and I had a dog sitting there with its head on my lap beggin for some food. Then we headed to another waterfall which was much nicer then the first, it was a good 5 min hike to get to it but it didn't compair to the ones we saw in isreal. After that they took us back to our place and I sat on the beach reading and watching the sunset. Now we are in town, just had some dinner at a wierd German place, I ate Toast Hawaii, basically ham, cheese and pinapple on a toast. It was pretty good believe it or not but not as good as the thai food I've been eating. Oh yeah we also booked our boat over to Koh Phangan with a minibus pick up at our place for only 250 baht, I was expecting to pay around 600 or 800 for it so that was a good surprise. On the downside they are expecting some crappy weather coming up, some kind of storm so the full moon party might not be that good. Hopefully it will be bad tomorrow and pass quickly. One last thing to leave you with a smile, on the way here a "Lady-boy" as our tour guide called them told me that s/he "Loves me" as I walked by.
