Well Janet and I are back from our African safari. I went through most of the photos this morning and uploaded a bunch to Flickr. Still have some from the last day and Zanzibar to go through, so I will add those later. The link to the set is below if you are interested. I uploaded them pretty much just as I took them. Except for cropping I didn't do any photoshop editing, so the shots of the sunsets looked just like they are loaded.

Haha, supposedly they don't sting or bite, but I wasn't taking any chances.

Wow, amazing adventure guys - the animals have such expression on their faces and so much personality...unlike the glazed, bored look at zoos. Thanks so much for sharing. Very inspiring!

If that is really a tse tse fly I am glad you steered clear of those babies. Not only do they bite but they are vectors for trypanosomias. Twisted Evil
