Pictures compliment of Ainur (actually stolen from HERE)

The trip to Gandah was a blast. It was about an hour drive from KL (Actually more, if you drive slower than 160km/hour - Ainur told me that it is right outside KL. Trust me, it's not!)

I wanted to ride the elephant, but I changed my mind because I felt sorry for them... True, the elephants are lucky that they were transported to Gandah, the elephant sanctuary (in a sense that they'll be safe from hunters and they'll be well fed), but they are not so lucky for having to become 'entertainers' (I'm not so fond of zoos for the same reason).

I'd feel better if I know that the animals actually enjoy (or okay with) being treated that way, caged or not.
