It was nice but not enough. I told my husband that we need to go to Botswana or South Africa next year. But even so, just staying a couple of weeks will never be like you living there and watching them anytime you like. Your blog is so special.Vagabondehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10774109692564954568noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7968469327864068813.post-36219566577136122912010-03-17T00:24:33.065+02:002010-03-17T00:24:33.065+02:00if i could read with my eyes closed, i would be th...if i could read with my eyes closed, i would be there....<br />love it!<br />thank you for taking us to africa with your elegant words val.<br />much love,<br />loriLori annhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02860428306713379828noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7968469327864068813.post-30912843197673318012010-03-16T11:33:20.727+02:002010-03-16T11:33:20.727+02:00The elephants are so clever!

Someone has detected lately how much more elephants can communicate. I wish I could understand!<br />Beautiful, peaceful scenes, Val. A bit too hot for me at the moment, as we still have temps below zero, and the shock of feeling yours would knock me over!Angelahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06484336744673299416noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7968469327864068813.post-44788364890395449992010-03-15T21:10:33.263+02:002010-03-15T21:10:33.263+02:00How wonderfully you described your outing to a ver...How wonderfully you described your outing to a very special place - for Chobe is where my parents used to love to visit, ever since their Honeymoon.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7968469327864068813.post-55541673994162728452010-03-15T18:42:13.539+02:002010-03-15T18:42:13.539+02:00Sounds like a lovely trip.
