Chobe

Friday, August 19, 2011

Today was another awesome day of animal viewing. We all went on a boat cruise this morning and got up close and personal to plenty of wildlife. At one point I was taking photos of hippos on a small island of sorts and as we were pulling away I noticed a croc nearby. I pointed this out to Jamie and he said “well didn’t you see this one?” He pointed to a croc that was sitting a few feet in front of the boat (we were in the front seats). He blended in with his surroundings and was so perfectly still that it is no wonder creatures have bad encounters with them.


I could post plenty of pics of our cruise but I have to sort through the 529 (literally) photos I took today.

The highlight I think for all of us today was seeing a massive herd of elephants and cape buffalo this afternoon while on a second game drive with Danie. Seeing the vast landscape littered with thousands of animals made me immediately think of The Great Migration of wildebeest. This is one small snapshot and about 1/10th of the panoramic view we came across.



Today was another really great day but now it is time for me to get ready for tomorrow by dreaming about puddy tats and CLOSED car windows!
