You will see Baobab tree, traditional hut, lion, hippos, etc and for those who read the No 1 Ladies Detective agency: a photo of the coffee shop in Gaborone and breakfast menu with characters from the book - quiet, peaceful setting, popular amongst tourists.

145305Dankie vir die deel Suzette. Ai julle was darem so bevoorreg om dit te kan doen. Ons het hele paar jaar terug daar getoer en dit was ongelooflik.
2306Thank you Suzette for sharing all those marvalous pictures. The #1 of the 2nd group is just what I needed to find the good colours for my embroidery "elephant silhouette in sun rise", your picture is quite the same that the design, it miss just elephants, but you have given so beautiful pictures of lions... I will try them when I will have recovered my machine from reparation,...and when I will have new glasses for my eyes , a month after the 2nd surgery for the 2nd eye. that is in december!!!!

62461suzette, all the pictures are like looking at National Geographic. Wow!! Fantastic , makes me wish I could see it all in person. Thank you so much for sharing Would love to see the No 1 Ladies opera House & their sign Digitized in Red or Blackwork, would make a stunning bag. *4U
145791Dankie Suzette, pragtige foto's geniet dit daar. Twee jaar is om voordat jy dit besef. Ek is al 2 jr in Pretoria vanaf Doonside (Amanzimtoti) en dit voel soos gister toe ek getrek het.

20582Ok Suzette, I confess that is one of the most spectacular trees I have ever seen! (Wouldn't that be great digitized for a redwork design?)
Wow...that aside, absolutely terrifying to shoot pics of lions in the wild! AAACKKK! Nearly jumped out of my skin when I heard a local mountain lion as I fed the horses one day, could only imagine strolling across the street and hearing these guys talking!Yikes! What an adventure it must be to live there! Blessings to you and thank you for sharing these wonderful glimpses into Botswana!

I would LOVE a Baobab redwork tree! Also called "upside down tree" (roots in air) or "monkey bread tree". Native to Africa, Australia & Magacascar. Trunks get thicker (7m - 25m) and stores water. Fruit and seeds, once used for cream of tartar

Here in the USA, a television station, HBO (Home Box Office) has put out a series of the #1 Ladies Detective Agency. After watching and enjoying those, will be looking for the books.
Your photos are wonderful! Thanks for sharing.
