Elephants........

...... looking for the 'Big 5 ' in Tanzania I had to learn that elephants on a beer bottle don't count ....... but today while returning to the camp we found ourselves in midst of a herd of about 60 to 70 elephants - returning from wherever to their place for the night. It was quite magical! All those big animals walking quietly past our jeep ..... the only noises were the scratching now and then when an elephant rubbed his skin on a tree and now and then the grumbling of another ....... nothing compares to that feeling!


This is my 500th blip - I've never thought I'd get this far!
Thank you so much for all your comments, all your advice and all your replies!
I really enjoy 'meeting' you all, seeing little pieces of a world unknown to me, getting a glimpse of your world - and I'm looking forward to many more.....






And sorry again for the lack of replies, comments and posts - my internet connection at the moment is very ...... scarce.......... but as soon as it's 'business as usual' I will be back and will have a look! :-))
