Rachel Melvin Instagram – Continuing on our #Thailand adventure…
1. Me giving an #elephant a mud bath at the @phuket_elephant_sanctuary
2. @thekevinbarrett bathing an elephant at #phuketelephanthousesanctuary
3. We were so happy and grateful to have spent a few hours with these #rescued elephants. Cannot recommend this #sanctuary enough. Their elephants are rescued from harsh and unethical labor like elephant tuk tuks, hauling building materials etc., where they are horribly abused (my favorite elephant here had been blinded by her “employer” for not doing what they wanted her to). They are now extremely loved and excellently cared for. The groups they bring in, like us, are super small and the education they provide to their visitors is phenomenal. What an experience!
4. We got our #scooter and after Kevin did his test drive around town solo, I determined I could trust him driving on the left side of the road in a town full of motorists, scooters, little to no stop lights, and tons of round abouts. We survived and it brought us to some pretty cool places we never would have discovered otherwise.
5, 6, 7, 8 – Like this little restaurant #forestandcafe nestled in the forest of #phuket No one spoke English so we knew we were in the right place and the food was absolutely delicious! The grounds were so much fun not to mention beautiful. Definitely one of our favorite discoveries of the whole trip.
9. Definitely the most interesting foot exfoliation I’ve experienced! #Phuket #nightMarket
10. Dinner @patongsunsetview During his solo drive on the scooter Kevin stopped here and somehow got them to make room for us for dinner with a prime view, even though they were fully booked. This place was recommended to us by @ployrungdebard and what a recommendation it was!
