Zambezi river, Zambia
A great way to get introduced to the Zambezi river and it's wildlife.  We got really close to a lot of hippos and crocs. The boat offers a full bar so sit back with a cocktail and enjoy the beauty Africa has to offer.
Elephant family
We had the good fortune to see these beauties on a walking safari in Mosi-au-Tanya national park. There are 10 white rhino there as well as zebra, giraffe, impala, elephants, hippo and others.
