Dream Trip 2009

Great Travel Moment

This giraffe was just standing there at Kariega National Park in South Africa. We were in our safari jeep, stopping to observe her. She posed so beautifully, peaceful and unafraid. The sky was a perfect blue, the foliage various shades of green. It was the perfect background for her majestic beauty. When we saw this picture printed in its 8 by 10 glory, all I could think of was "It looks like something you would see in National Geographic." However, I was wrong. It is something you should see in Conde Nast Traveler. It calls me back to South Africa. How about you?
