Nepal not only has high mountains, but in the south it also has lowland jungles that are a part of the Gangetic Plains of India. In a few places thick jungles with rhinos and tigers still exist.
We went to Chitwan in a bus from Pokhara. We then changed to another bus, then a boat, and finally a jeep to get into the heart of the jungle. I saw two types of deer and a rhino from the jeep. It was a long and hard journey because I nearly threw up in the bus, and a girl sitting next to us did throw up! which smelled really bad.

There was a baby elephant at Chitwan that always followed its mom. We rode elephants on a safari to see wildlife!

Hi Pascale - The pictures of your safari to Chitwan bring back wonderful memories. We went there with you Mom and Dad before they were married. It was so wonderful riding the elephants, and the accomodations were great.
ReplyDeleteOur only disappointment was we didn't see any tigers. They must be shy animals. Did your elephant trumpet for you?
Looking forward to seeing you on Saturday.
Love Grandpa and Grandma
