There were hundreds of elephants at a water hole (I was sure wishing I had a wide angle lense as there were so many more!)

Africa has the most beautiful sunsets! This was at one of our sundowners.

oh my, yes... Welcome to Africa, Marcie! And, welcome to the "charging elephant club"!! That's a thrill I'll never forget and, by the looks of your photo, you won't either!! Glad you got a shot of it!

Thank you for the great report. Have been eager to hear your first hand report. Can hardly wait for ROAR II in 9/08.

Great pictures Marcie. Looks like you really had an amazing excursion.

Welcome back to the cruise and the board - we missed your fun reports.

Marcie, your photos were wonderful! We never had a charging elephant from our jeep, just one old geezer that got his dander up and huffed a bit and flapped his ears and made a little noise. Soon as the ranger started backing up, he went back to eating. That was plenty of excitement for me!

I wish Karen could add the elephant "trumpet" to this thread - I can almost hear it when I look at that photo!
