Last days in Africa

So, I'm now a elephant observationist, personal elephant photographer, & personal elephant seamstress.  I made a poor attempt to sew 2 airplane blankets to a horse blanket trying to design a night gown for my little Bezi.  I'm sure not due to MY abilities, it fell apart during the night.  Bezi was sent to his own room last night because Suni keeps him up and night & Bezi is a screamer.  It took a loving keeper's presence to get Bezi use the idea, but all went well. 

Football (aka soccer for us silly Americans) is all the thing right now.  Zambia plays this afternoon and the keepers are arranging for a tv to be brought to the elephant boma.  This game determines if Zambia will go to the world cup -- it's a big deal.  All the keepers are in their zambian scarves - even though it is quite warm now at 1:00pm.  Our supervisor has also left me to go see the game live, so I'm in charge today! Heaven help us! :)  I can't believe I leave to return to the US tomorrow.
