I'm a tourist!

We decided to hire a driver to take us to all these touristy places. It was a lot of fun and we were taken to loads of different places. First on the list was an Orchid farm. It was beautiful. I never knew they came in so many colours.


Next came an elephant camp. We got there just in time for the show. Now, people may think that elephants doing shows but it wasn't that bad. The elephants looked happy and their trainers didn't beat them or anything, just verbal commands.


 It was a lot of fun to watch as they were all so sweet. We then went to the botanical gardens. That was my favourite place. We couldn't so all of it as we didn't have enough time but we saw some stuff. I took so many pictures that my camera started to run out of battery. 

We saw a massive spiders web, luckily, without the spider. After that came lunch. Afterwards we were going to go to snake world, monkey school, tiger kingdom and a waterfall. We decided not to go to snake world and monkey school so we went straight to the waterfall. 


 Now, by this time it had got a bit warmer so walking up 1000 feet to see different parts of the waterfall but it was worth it as it was amazing. Last but not least came Tiger Kingdom. It sounded amazing but it was such a disappointment. When we got there you had to pay a stupid amount of money for 10 minutes with a tiger and if you just wanted to look, you only had a small space to go. Also, it was said that the animals were not drugged but they looked so sad and tired. 

 Then there were people banging sticks in front of them. In my opinion it was just mean so we didn't stay long and went back to the flat we were staying in.
