| They really are that beautiful |
I do have more challenges for folks on
So You Think You Can Teach, but I am just back in from two weeks of travel;
Rwanda a bit and then ten days in
Tanzania. Because I am working on moving to another house and have a week of training that begins tomorrow.
I will just post some photos and hope to write a bit about it soon.
Needless to say, however, it was dreamy and I feel very lucky to have had the chance to do this travel.

These pictures are really beautiful! Well done!
ReplyDeleteThanks for posting them.
Mother says: "Oh my gosh! This is really something!"
ReplyDeleteAmazing photos! Did you take them?
ReplyDeleteI did take these photos with my little Cannon, that I had recently dropped and so it likes to shut down quite often. Therefore, you can only imagine what it is like "live"-these animals are incredible!
ReplyDeleteYou just did the number two thing on my bucket list! These pictures are spectacular!!! I can't imagine what is must have been like to experiance in person! Magnificant! I can't wait to hear all about it!
ReplyDeleteWow! Is that a baby elephant in that photo? In the words of the great Mikey... "Too fair!"
ReplyDeleteSweet. I am glad that you got a chance to do this. What sort of training are you doing? I had assumed that you were already the expert.
ReplyDeleteIt really is too fair to see all these incredibly adapted animals. In fact, with spring and all we saw lots of baby elephants. Does that make it, "Too, too, too, fair"?
ReplyDeleteWe are getting more language training and looking at what is going well, how to improve things, and working with other similar volunteers on projects, workshops, etc.

ReplyDeleteThose pictures are AMAIZING! My favorite was the one with all the elephants! It is VERY beautiful! I am one of Mrs. McRaith's students at St. Joes! Be safe on your journey!
ReplyDeleteThese pictures are BEAUTIFUL!! I love the one of the lion!! By the way i am a student of Mrs.McRaith at St. Joes. I hope you are having fun there!! ;D
ReplyDeleteDear Erin,
ReplyDeleteI am fascinated by your journey to Africa, because you have inspired me to travel there one day as well. It has been my DREAM for 7 years to go there and take beautiful photographs of the animals and land. Can you tell me who you traveled with and how you came to go there? Thanks, and I LOVE the pictures!!

Well, thank you Stephanie, Bryn, and Becca! It is fun to see posts from the wonderful students at St. Joe's. The photos are nice and really, as is not surprising, do not do justice to how gorgerous these animals are in "person". Having a male lion look you dead in the eyes from ten paces in the middle of the Serengeti was for certain a dream come true for me. I was just trying to finish another blog posting of, "So You Think You Can Teach?", but am so tired from the long, hot moto rides (four hours today), and working that I keep falling asleep. However, I so enjoyed your postings that I stayed awake a bit longer to say hello and ask you to pass on a hello to my mother. Thanks!
ReplyDeleteWhat is your favorite part in Africa??
ReplyDeleteWell, so far in my limited experience I would have to say the area around Ngorngoro Crater in Tanzania...pretty magical.
ReplyDeletethat sounds cool!!
