Thailand - Chiang Mai - Bathing Area

            Slightly unusual composition, but I was trying to tell a story.  Many elephants in Thailand were made unemployed when logging was banned so many found alternative employment in the Tourist industry.  Luckily the ones we visited were only required to perform Elephant / logging related tasks as I think I'd have felt uneasy about seeing Elephants dressed in tutus performing Ballet.
