Zoë's Photo Shoot

Kapama Game Reserve : Jim and I stayed at Kapama Game Reserve in South Africa form February 22-29. There are alot of photos here but it is really hard to choose when you've taken over 1500 shots. I am not going to take time to label all of the photos, just the animal you may not be familiar with. The animals know as the "Big Five" are Lion, Leopard, White Rhinoceros,African Buffalo, and African Savanna Elephant; all of which we got to see. Each day started with a 5:30am wake up call. Coffe, tea, and light snack were served and we were in our Land Cruiser by 6am. Morning game drive lasted until 9am and then we were served a full breakfast buffet style, outside around the boma. Next we headed to the pool, bar or lounge area for a bit. Lunch was served from 11 to 1pm. Then it was naptime until around 3:30 when showers were taken. Tea was at 4pm followed by game drive at 4:30. Evening game drive included a stop for a sundowner where a minibar and snacks, (including biltong, nuts, pretzels,etc) were set up. Game drive ended around 7 although we were usually late, sometimes as late as 8pm. Dinner was from 7:30 until 9pm around the boma, in the river bed, or in the formal dining area. Several nights we were entertained by local musicians and dancers.

Havasupai Hike : I spent the weekend of April 11th hiking on the Havasupai Indian Reservtion in the Grand Canyon with 10 of my friends. We visited Navajo, Havasu, Mooney and Beaver Falls.

El Salvador 11.07 : Jim and I travelled to El Salvador with the group Manos Que Ayudan for a one week medical mission at Hospital San Juan de Dios in Santa Ana. The team perfomed 98 surgeries over 5 days. Our general surgery team performed 32 laparoscopic cholecystectomies. Other teams included gynecology, pediatric plastics, and orthopaedic surgery. An upwards of 700 patients were seen in clinic, including GYN, internal med, and pediatrics. There was just enough time left for bit of sighseeing. Hope you enjoy the images!
