When in Rome...
or England, as the case may be...NOT enjoys a Murphy's Irish Stout close to the source.

Is NOT really old enough to be partaking of such beverages?
Jackals may look like friendly dogs, but you wouldn't pet them a second time with your remaining hand.
Hyenas
Hyena tongues are like very sharp cheese graters--that's how they get the bones so clean. In the back, a black-backed jackal waits patiently (or impatiently...who can tell)
Vultures wait for their turn at the carcass
Water lizard. Right on the dam near Vuyatela.
NOT Duck tries his hand at being a spotter.
Wen@207.18.199.140 (05/25/2001 14:04:25):
Ahhh..I was wondering when Not was going to sneak into a pic!!! I imagine he's a good spotter!!
Our trusty steed for the past week.
Our ranger can take this Land Rover anywhere.
JJ@168.29.218.244 (05/25/2001 12:22:59):
Well that's an improvement. So often they can't take you guys *anywhere* :)
Uncle Richard@152.163.213.209 (05/25/2001 19:58:49):
wow you guys look cold what is the temperature?
The moon may be a harsh mistress, but it's nice to see you can still dress her up once in a while.
Yet another elephant
OK, I know this is the third elephant we've posted, but if you were seeing them in person you'd understand. They are truly impressive, awe-inspiring beasts.
James@192.168.0.4 (05/24/2001 23:22:48):
Wow, pictures look great, I cant believe they are real. Everything is well here, enjoy the rest of your trip.
One of several year and a half old cubs we saw this morning.
How could you not love a face like that?
Mom@24.240.90.223 (05/24/2001 15:38:03):
So okay, I love it....can I have a kitty, huh, huh???
Wrench@24.128.196.25 (05/25/2001 17:51:44):

Lions in the mist. Not gorillas.
This leopard walked right under our vehicle. Captured from video.
Sunset....
"and we walk our days under African skies..."
Susan@207.172.11.148 (05/24/2001 13:17:51):
WOW! You guys are sooo fortunate to be able to take this trip. Is National Geographic looking for photographers? It's a possibility!
Mom@24.240.90.223 (05/24/2001 15:39:09):
awe inspiring, just awe insiring....
I don't know why we pronounce it "zeee-bra."
The British pronunciation of zeb-ra (like "debra") makes much more sense.
Mom@24.240.90.223 (05/24/2001 15:40:32):
but then, the Brits are sooo much more sensible while we just have fun! Doesn't zeeebra have a much better ring to it!
This is what constitutes a major road inside Djuma. Meaning we can get into third gear.
Another elephant.
These guys are everywhere, and are largely responsible for the landscape, as they routinely take down trees to feed and/or demonstrate their masculinity. Hence the nickname "African bulldozer."
Chris & Ali@63.27.152.229 (05/23/2001 19:11:18):
What a coincidence! Ali calls me the "New Hampshire Bulldozer" for exactly the same reasons! Loving the pictures!
