(continued from The White Elephant part 1 on Thursday, January 21, 2010)
The white elephant I was petting was dangerous! My mom is holding it's tusk!
After we took some photos, one of the workers came running over to us yelling, "Don't pet the white elephant!"
We stopped right away. She later explained to us that this elephant was being used for a war re-enactment, so it was used to soldiers in battle, not with little kids!
I thank God that my guardian angel protected me and my friends!
Questions for my blog readers:
1. Have you ever pet an elephant?
2. Have you ever been in danger before?
3. What did you do?
Write and tell me your stories!
Did you know that ช้างเผือก pink / white elephants are very special here in Thailand? The Thais believe that they are a sign of royal power, and are presented to the king! Go to Wikipedia to learn more http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/White_elephant_%28pachyderm%29
