Beats working
I’m in Kuala Lumpur for work at the moment, till the end of the week, having arrived last Tuesday night. So that means we had the weekend to do some sightseeing. On Sunday, we spent the day at the Kuala Gandah elephant sanctuary, and fed, rode on, and swam with, the elephants.
Here’s some of what I did at the sanctuary.
First of all the keepers washed the elephants in the river.
Then we got to feed them, and ride on them, then the finale. First, sit on the elephant….
over we go ….
the aftermath, drowned rats.
Well worth the effort to get there if you happen to be in Kuala Lumpur. And we got a nice drive in the country, sampled some tropical fruits, had a go shooting targets with a blowpipe, and had lunch, local style.
However, back to KL, and work, now, for the rest of this week.

Mate, this looks awesome. I will be in KL later in the year. How did you get out there?
I will definitely look at doing this…

Mick - we went on a tour organised through the hotel we stayed at. The company is Dream Destination Travel and Tours Sdn Bhd and there were just 2 of us in a car with a guide. His name is Vincent and he was very good. Cost about $A70 each for the day. Just about every tour company in KL goes there and I’m sure you could shop around and get a cheaper price if you wanted to bother (we were staying in a 5 star hotel so I doubt they were flogging the el cheapo tours).
