		<description><![CDATA[I have to admit Cheryl, before meeting you the elephants were always tied with giraffes as my favorite animals to observe at the zoo. Now, reading your posts and seeing your photographs, I find that I&#039;m losing myself on an almost daily basis in dreams and fantasies about visiting the places you&#039;ve been, and meeting the amazing people and elephants you&#039;ve encountered. Thank you for letting me live vicariously through your adventures and I definitely plan on visiting Africa sooner than later - I feel a need to gaze into one of those awe inspiring eyes myself!
