Elephants at Chilojo

In the southern part of Zimbabwe, close to Mozambique and to South Africa, there is the game preserve named Gonarezhou. It is with full justification that Gonarezhou means: The Place of many Elephants. 
Along the Runde river stretch the cliffs of Chilojo.
It is not possible to describe in words the feeling one gets, when the evening sun turns these cliffs into a kaleidoscope of colours and down below, in the largely dry river bed, a family of elephants have gathered.:
Since I cannot describe it in words, let me try to show it to you in pictures:




Above the deep green of the trees there are the red cliffs of Chilojo.
Maybe tomorrow I shall show you the Chilojo Cliffs in their entire beauty.

Bertstravels would like to go back there one more time.
