2nd Day in Chitwan


Finally had a good sleep apart waking in the night with it raining heavy and the ducks quacking, but I fill good. Had a nice shower, clean clothes and a nice breakfast, what more could a girl ask for? Off for an elephant ride in the jungle, my second time on an elephant and I can't recall it being that uncomfortable or am I just getting too old? Anyway off we go in the rain on a smelly elephant and what did we see? A wild chicken, deer, wild boar and a peacock, not quite the great white hunter. Back for lunch and yet again it's the same as yesterday rice, chips, spaghetti and veg, I just can't eat that combination.
Back out on the hunt for the big game but this time in a jeep but first we had to cross the river in a dug out canoe, not good. After 4 hours in an old jeep bouncing around we saw peacocks, chickens, deer, monkeys, sloth bear x 2 and some crocs (not the shoes) This is by no means a safari, if you want a real one go to Kenya, it was entertaining for sure and we finished the day with a lovely sunset. 
Dinner was the same again as yesterday and we didn't eat it but had a beer instead. Tomorrow going to tell them not to bother but cook us omelettes instead as they were nice.
