South African Safari

After flying for 40 hours to South Africa, I spent a hot, bumpy and exhilirating afternoon with newly made friends searching for Rhino in the Northern KwaZulu Nata Province. The next day, I benefited from a well earned case of jet lag and got up to witness an African dawn, much as our ancestors wold have over the past four million years.

Enjoy!
