Elephant interaction with Joy sitting in accessible, wheelchair friendly, special adapted safari truck for disabled travellers

"…I rode off into the red African dawn in a truck so imaginatively and ingeniously converted that every disabled person on the tour wanted one… And then I will tell you that I was in a place where my crutches did not impede my being able to touch a cheetah. That I stroked him until he purred…The Epic adventure will not heal you or enable you. But it will empower you. And that is a priceless thing to have - empowerment...”
