Africa's Great Rift .......

[PMG]

Just finished catching up with this mini series - sat down with a coffee and overdosed on all three episodes ......... a grand way to spend a rainy Mon morn

Its scary tho to hear that a new primate has been discovered as late as 2005 and that it is already threatened with extinction from the expanding needs of local people - it may go extinct before it can even be studied ......

Of all the images .... and there are many in these progs ...... the one that brought tears to my eyes was the high alpine meadow lands filled to bursting with colourful flowers of all kinds ....... it brought a lump to my throat - the sheer spectacle of it .......

Unfortunately, now I must go and do some work and prepare to take on my 'carers-super-cape' looking after mam this afternoon .........
