The Right of Way?
We are on land safari in the Liwonde National Park in the southeastern part of Malawi, Central Africa.
Coming around a curve we come face to face with a very large elephant walking directly toward us. He is hogging the road, and it appears he has no intention of changing his course. For a moment I wonder who has the right of way in a case like this. But only for a moment. In what seems like an instant the driver answers my unasked question, and immediately draws a conclusion. He stops the Land Rover, and with the speed of light has us in reverse and moving rapidly backward, and away from the elephant. There seems little question as to whether we, or the elephant, has the right of way.
The Race is On
The boat is moving along the shoreline of the Shire River in the Liwonde National Park in southeastern Malawi.
Unnoticed by those on the boat is the bird coming up rapidly behind them. It appears to be a race to the finish.
