Life on the river

"We said there warn't no home like a raft, after all. Other places do seem so cramped up and smothery, but a raft don't. You feel mighty free and easy and comfortable on a raft."

-Huck Finn

After riding elephants we were towed upstream on a bamboo raft and then we gently floated home.
