Elephants

Our friend Stan predicted that our most amazing memory would be the first time we saw elephants. While the elephants were certainly amazing, my favorite memory was when we spotted a couple of painted dogs (wild dogs). We later realized the dogs were more numerous than we recognized and they were stalking a group of impala that explode into flight when the dogs moved in initially running right at us.  I have photos of some of the dogs, but not the moment they attacked the impala.

The elephants were amazing. Here are a few photos. We saw many elephants - from the air when we took a helicopter flight over Victoria Falls, from boats as we cruised the Zambezi, and on several jeep drives. I will include a sample of images below and conclude with a short video as they picked up speed descending toward the river to drink.
