COS trippn' 4th stop: Vic Falls - Elephant riding

They have a ton of activities you can do in Victoria Falls, including riding an elephant.


The elephants are so big that even when they crouch down, you have to use steps to get up.


Our elephant was named Mbanje (meaning marijuana). He was HUGE! But friendly.


I found it terrifying in the back at first, but Coalee was in her element (& laughing hysterically)! Eventually I found a better grip and relaxed. The handler Benny took us on a slow, meandering walk. He even offered Coalee a job!



Afterwards they let us feed him, through his snout which he used to bring food to his mouth.



Pretty adorable, right?
