North East Cambodia along the Vietnam border (Ho Chi Minh trail, where during the Vietnam War, the North Vietnamese brought war supplies and troops through Cambodia to South Vietnam), with beautiful jungles and most of Cambodia's shrinking elephant population.
We hiked about 3 miles to a small hill tribe farm and our elephant encounter
Most of Mondulkiri is made up of ten tribal minorities, from the 2000 year old Phnong tribe...
She liked the bananas, and ate bamboo leaves most of the time
Our trail included river crossings on one of the most tangled bridges I've ever seen...
Our guide had a tribal farmer's wife cook us a 'yummy' traditional lunch, who afterwards demanded we nap...
We joined the elephant in the river for a bath /see more on You Tube[ Cambodian Mondokiri Elephant ]
I bet you loved that home cookin! Looks like an amazing trip!
ReplyDeleteSo did you nap? Haha how was the food? This looks so amazing... So lucky to hang out with an elephant like that! Love all the pics!
