Pictures, finally!

here are some pictures of the elephant, immobilized.

also, the others are from a boat ride safari i took in chobe game park, botswana.

saturday, i went on a game drive in chobe before heading across the border to livingstone, zambia. i saw impala, buffalo, lion, elephants, sable, kudu, giraffe. i was lucky enough to have my own guide because no one else scheduled a game drive at the same time as me! so the safari driver stopped the truck just for me to get as much animal viewing in as possible. lucky me! saturday afternoon, i arranged a lift from kasane, botswana upto livingstone, zambia.

i've been staying with renee's friend maura in her peace corps house. she has no refridgeration and the water stops running at 10pm, which means the toilet stops flushing at that time too. i guess you'd call it "roughing it" but it is quite fun actually. at least the toilet is western-style! we saw victoria falls yesterday (the largest waterfalls in the world, apparently it keeps expanding every year) and are going whitewater rafting tomorrow!

well, happy 4th of july everyone!
