Africa!!
Here are some of the images from my recent trip to Botswana, Namibia and Zimbabwe! I had such an amazing time and feel so fortunate to have had the opportunity to visit such beautiful places!
Elephant sniffing!
Loved the elephant herds!
I couldn't stop taking photos of them!
At one point our vehicle had a herd of over 200 elephants pass.
Images can not capture that! They just kept coming!
View from Baobab Lodge, Chobe National Park, Botswana
My first Giraffe!
Tracking Lions! The guides at each camp visited are brilliant!
They explained how they can tell if a track is fresh...
and how they use the surrounding grass etc to locate the wildlife.
Not a great photo... but I saw warthogs!!!
Each lodge had the Safari necessities.
1. Doom spray - kills bugs almost immediately. I had to test it out on some wasps.
2. Foghorn - only for medical emergency... or if baboons break into your tent.
Fortunately never had to test that!
3. Peaceful Sleep Spray - powerful body bug spray. Used regularly!
Impala - seen everywhere - but still very exciting for me!
Hippos, Chobe River CruiseI was happy to see one almost out of water. I'm glad we weren't much closer!
One morning I had two of these guys outside my tent.
Not something you want to see at 5:30am!
I had to hide out until they were gone. Nasty!
Sunset at Baobab Lodge
We took small planes (6 passenger) from place to place... often landing on a dirt airstrip.
These images are all above the Chobe National Park.
I just loved the shapes created by water and trees... 
Our small plane! 
The following photos were taken in Namibia. 
Sunset Cruise on the Kasane River
The water was so still it was like a mirror - this is a reflection.
Africa had some of the most beautiful sunsets I've ever seen.
There was a storm off in the distance, creating these incredible clouds.
