         I am well, thanks. Life is good. I enjoy your blog so very much. The gentle giants you highlight are magnificent. I have seen them in a zoo but prefer to watch them on http://www.africam.com. It is always better when they are free.

         Yes, always better free. I’m going to post a video on Sunday filmed in the Okavango Delta on mitigating the conflict between the 15,000 elephants and the 15,000 people there. It has some lovely footage.
