Safari and Weekend?
Hi there. To start with today: a beautiful rainbow was right above the ocean. What a fantastic view while driving to work. :-)
Yesterday: been to cinema twice. First at 3p.m. for Shoot 'Em Up - reminded me a bit of old Tarrantino movies - at Waterfront, where I spent most of the afternoon. In the evening I went to Century City for dinner and again a movie, this time Disturbia - could have been better. Mostly a bit boring. ^^
Friday/Saturday: Safari. Quiet an experience. Awesome, as most people tend to say down here. Cuddling cheetahs (gepards), seeing lions, buffalos (the most dangerous species in ?South? Africa), hippos (twice as dangerous as lions and tigers together - at least for humans ... the tend to underestimate them, and eventually get killed when going to close to them), elephants, and rhinos (quiet peaceful, but don't try to anger them ^^). Seen the Big 4 - missed the leopard. They're quiet hard to see, because they get out of the way when they hear the car. There were plenty of other African animals, like zebras, different kind of antilops, and others ... :-)
And now for the pictures. Due to complaints the pictures are now at a maximum size of 800x600 in here, but there will be a zip-file with all picutres (not only a selection) in full-res. :-)
(One of three younger ones that not belong to the family of the "free" older lions in the Aquila game reserve. They still have to be kept seperated, but soon will be released - maybe one or two month.)
