Ever since I read Gus Mills books about the hyenas in KTP
I have the highest respect for their family structures which
is kinda shown in your last pic as well. ^Q^


God put me on earth to accomplish a certain amount of things. Right now I'm so far behind that I'll never die.

A weird and wonderful feeling, that is to be out
in a far away corner of Africa.

Just standing next to the car, all alone in this
wide open wilderness somehow brings something
to the heart,........

Freedom finally arrived and it seems we in such a hurry
to be first on the road that we actually missed the leopard
crossing the track leading from the gate!!! Ah well,...
