While I was in Germany, I had the opportunity to ride the schwebebahn on Wuppertal. The schwebebahn is a suspension train that runs through the city. It was different from anything I had ever seen before!
At one point along the tram line in the middle of the river there is a statue of Tuffi the elephant. This is where the elephant decided to jump off the train and into the river. Her handler thought Tuffi riding the train would be good advertisement for the circus they were a part of. I actually saw a woman with a Tuffi sweatshirt while i was at the botanical garden in town!
