This picture is me with a dead hornbill that my Dad ran over. I am chopping its head off so that I can use the beak for a necklace. My Dad ran over it while we were going to a lodge near Victoria Falls. When we went to Vic Falls, we went through all these points next to the falls so we could take pictures, and at the end we rode a zipline that was 500' in the air. We went on a sweet boat ride along the Chobe river, and saw many hippos, elephants, and crocodiles. During the whole trip we saw exactly 497 elephants. We got blockaded by elephants three times, and all three of those times we almost got killed. Before we got to Vic Falls, we went to to Makgadikgadi Pans, and we ate the ground which was salt. Since the pans are very flat, the water goes out a long way, but it's not deep the whole time - maybe up to your ankles. We saw many animals, including giraffe and a lioness and her cubs. It was a fun trip.

This is when I went to vic falles one of the 7 wonders of the world. on this same vacaction we went to THE VICTORIA FALLS HOTEL and looked around.I went on a zipline and over a gorge and if we fell we would have fell 100 meters down. We were staying in the town Kasane and we could see elephants and worthog (wild pig)and other animals like: leopard ,cheetahs, lions and jakals and hippo. My dad accidentllay ran over a hornbill and i felt so sorry that i almost cried but i told myself i was a big girl now . we almost died because an elephant was walking in the road and behind the car and a herd was walking in the middle of the road toward the car so if we wanted to go back the elephant still would kill us if we did but we went to the side so that they could cross and then we were fine.
