Gogo and Gramps very kindly sponsored the whole family to a trip to Monkeyland and to walk with the elephants at the Elephant Sanctuary.

Grace meets an elephant. She touched the elephant, but when she did it was just a quick stroke. As we were finishing up the elephants ear came forward and whacked us and Grace says, “It wiped us out!” Afterwards she said “the most awesome thing” was when the elephant made a noise with its trunk. She also loved feeding the elephants.
