Greeting from South Africa

[ellebelle]

I am not going on safari - I've been to both Kenya and Tanzania and done the safari thing, so I decided not to do any of the game drives or anything. I mean, I camped in Ngorongoro national Park in Tanzania for over a month. Giraffes walked through our camp. Hyenas walked past my tent in the night. I figure a game drive can't really compete with that.

But for those who want pictures of animals in the wild, I give you Tanzania in 2004:

But, back to my trip.

Boulders Beach and Cape Point

(a WILD penguin colony. )

Hope you didn't take my comments out of context. I was just kidding. I wasn't aware of your 2004 trip. You have some real nice scenic pics here!

 

[KathyC]

Wow Lissa - they look like postcards! Great pics. Had you asked me to name the animals in Africa...penguins wouldn't have been on the list!
Keep enjoying your journey for us :division:




Wingo -

I would build schools and raise children-

I like the way you think..and care!

 

[Awibrandy]

What a beautiful continent. Beautiful pics!! I especially love the tiger, my favorite cat..

 

[ellebelle]

No worries Pedro. People just kept clamoring for WILD animals, so I had to oblige.

 

[ellebelle]

I tried to go diving with the great white sharks today, but we were blown out. (sob)

lisa those pics are awesome. wow...africa. i'd love to go some day.

 

[Pedro]

You are brave my dear, if i go diving with great whites there will be no shortage of nutrients in the vicinity, . If you do though, please take some pics. Be safe!

 

[ellebelle]

I was accused the other day of never finishing this thread. And so I give you a few photos from my last couple of days in Cape Town. (I am back in NYC now. And cold. )

Table Mountain

Simonstown

Winelands

[Pedro]

Very nice. Glad to have you back in nyc to freeze your ass together with the rest of us unfortunate reefers, lol.

Nice shot number 3 in B/W.
