India - 2006 Itinerary
Elephant ride in Corbett
We heard an elephant trumpet from in the woods and soon heard a familiar sound, Easter Parade coming from area. Laughing, we could see Janes Gypsy backing up along the edge of the woods to see if they could locate the large beast. Needless to say the guide asked the driver to dismantle the alarm! We did spot Asian Elephants down by the reservoir and headed towards them to get a closer look which allowed us to see a youngster probably about six months old along with his mother and an older sibling. Though there are over six hundred elephants in the park, it is not a guarantee that one can see them at this time of the year, when they tend to spend their time in the forest.
