We arrived on Sunday in the town of Thekkady. We are staying in the Periyar Tiger Reserve…the name is a bit deceptive I think very few people have ever seen a tiger there :-). When we arrived in Thekkady we were able to take a bareback ride on an Elephant through a short jungle trek…very fun but also very crowded. The elephants looked as wilted as the tourists sweating in the sun and we felt a bit sorry for them. After the Elephant ride we headed over to the Aurvedic center near the reserve. Matt and I both got a massage and a steam bath which was a bit less than relaxing. It seems both of our masseuses were a bit over-zealous and we left feeling pummeled, sore, sweaty, and oily. Needless to say I think that is the first and last Auryvedic massage Matt will ever have….
This hairy British tourist chose to bathe with an elephant...in a Speedo. A picture is worth a thousand words.
