At last, we have found them. Two elephants are used by one of the men of the village to walk tourists on their back. Doudou is not coming with empty hands. On the way, we have bought bananas. For elephants, a banana, it’s like a candy ! They like very much... As Doudou is quite small, Valérie has to lift him. She’s not reassured... hope that the elephant doesn’t make a mistake and swallows Doudou! But the elephant is very skilful with his trunk. Delicately, he grabs the banana and engulf it, without taking off the skin !
