Growing up in Botswana, one of my safari memories is of an angry elephant stampeding behind our jeep as we raced away. I think I was six or seven. In India, it's quite common to see an elephant or several (as well as monkeys) walking along the main streets. And it didn't matter how many times I saw them, I was always in awe.
All of these were taken in Jaipur, Rajasthan, where these elephants are decorated and used to carry tourists up and down the roads to the forts.
