Elephant Parade London – hunt 1

Today was a very exciting and fun day out with my other half.

We decided to spend the day hunting elephants all around London. As part of the Elephant Parade in London 258 brighlty painted elephants have been placed all across London in the hope that people will become more aware of the problem that Asian Elephants are now facing.

Each elephant was painted by either a different celeb or artist with their own inspiration and ideas. All the elephants will be auctioned off at the end of the conservation event between the dates of 24th June – 4July at the Royal Hospital Chelsea so up and get out there. If you love the elephants as much as I have you might even want to buy some miniture ones which can be done from this site.

Before setting off you on your big hunt, be sure to plan your route carefully, because as we found the time seems to fly away, and the elephants aren’t always that easy to find. #

Here is a map to help you get started.

Finally here is a link to artists involved, and may I say what a wonderful job you have done

I hope you enjoy the pictures that I took of the elephants we managed to find on day 1.
