The day started with a train ride which was an adventure in itself with entertainment and vendors keeping everyone amused.

The students comments on the trip so far include:
"I really liked seeing the elephants,"
"I loved seeing the amazing elephants,"
"I really enjoyed being at the school and seeing the children proudly showing us what they made,"
"Everything is completely different but I am loving every minute!"
