Hippo Pod in Zimbabwe, Elephants in Zambia

This is the pod of hippos Tom spotted from the helicopter. We were able to circle them and watch for a while. Tom also spotted a large herd of elephant under a tree, but since the elephants were in another country, Zambia, we were not allowed to fly over them. The four countries (Botswana, Zimbabwe, Zambia and Namibia) are very close together and join at the Zambezi River. Last night we watched the sunset from a boat ride down the Zambezi River near the falls. I'm sure we crossed in and out of several countries, but no one seemed to care.
