I think the links to pics on Kodak Gallery still actually work, but you have to "sign in."

So sorry - the above link was NOT my SA/Botswana report from May 2004. I had found it, and thought I was posting it...but it was like, 800 posts ago from the link above, and now I haven't been able to recapture it. Ah well, Div, the thought was there...I visited Sandibe, Savute and Nxabega. The first & last were CCAfrica (now &Beyond) and the middle was Desert & Delta, I believe.
