After a long flight from Vegas to Chiang Mai (the longest we've been on yet!) We're starting out in Northern Thailand to spend a few days living in an elephant camp where we will learn to care for and bathe elephants. Its a very special and unique experience thats sure to set the pace for our adventure.
Before venturing out of the sweltering humidity, there is a tiger sanctuary that is cared for by Monks that we'd love to see. The monks have a deep respect for nature and all of God's creatures - and they do not sedate their tigers. I think this is what Jason is most excited about!

From there, we plan to take a train to Southern Thailand to experience the best of what Thailand's beaches have to offer. The train station stops in Bangkok - and we'll use our best judgment upon arrival before deciding if we'll stay there for a night or two. If not, then its another train ride towards Phuket or somewhere near Railay Beach and a ferry or two to get to the islands of Koh Samui and Koh Tao. We're going with our gut on this one - we've discovered the best way to travel is to WING IT!

Once we've got the beaches in our sights, our main goal is to relax. Between relaxing day in and day out, we plan stop here and there to snorkel, eat food that would perhaps be questionable in the states, hop on a few boats, make friends with the locals and go wherever our hearts desire.

Its sure to be a trip of a lifetime. <3
