Pictures, Pictures, Pictures!

Chobe Sunset Cruise. Isn't our boat (seen below) fantastic? Sarah and I each had our own bedrooms and sitting areas complete with cable tv and wifi capabilities. As our luxury items, I chose to be fanned by palm leaves, while Sarah opted to be massaged with smoothed diamonds.

Okay, so this is not our boat. The disgustingly wealthy people on this house boat were trailed by a raft piled with crates and laundry lines that served as servants quarters. I also guarantee that unlike us, they did not worry about the size of their boat being a hazard in hippo and croc-infested waters, and they did not deal with this stress by pulling warm alcoholic "sundowners" from a cooler below their feet.

At any rate, we had a fanastic cruise through Chobe National Park, passing beautiful birds, monitor lizards, and enormous herds of large game.

Here are some pictures from our game drive through Chobe on our final morning...after we found a company willing to actually pick us up. Among the animals that were new to us were the giant marabou storks (as tall as humans and known as possibly the ugliest birds alive). They love to eat trash.

And of course, another gem from our flight home to Gabs....
