Chang

is the Thai word for Elephant. Koh (island) Chang is an island shaped like an elephant head. Chang beer has elephants on the label. What would Koh Chang be without elephants? Nothing, thats what. And where there's elephants theres elephant trekking. For a mere 900 Baht (about $27) you can ride some elephants through the jungle and swim with them in a stream. If you ask me, thats an excellent use of $27.

All of the excursions here are really cool and pretty cheap. Tomorrow we're going on a snorkeling trip to 4 of the islands around Koh Chang. The boat goes to Koh Thong Lang, Koh Rung, Koh Loan, and Koh Wai. Its a day long trip of snorkeling, swimming, and a Thai buffet for lunch. All for 500 Baht! About $15. I love Thailand.
