Matobo

We arrived early in the morning in Bulawayo.  The old industrial center of Zimbabwe, Bulawayo mainly attracts tourists now because of the neighboring Matobo National Park.  It has two sides, a game park and a landscape park.  The landscape is unique and incredible.  Granite boulders we pushed up long ago with the African continent and with time and erosion they now look like as if there were placed on top of each other.  We're not talking about one or two stacks, but hundreds.  Matobo is also famous for the burial place of John Cecil Rhodes as well as a massive collection of Bushman rock paintings dating back thousands of years. 


A hunting party.


Stacks on stacks on stacks.

A lonely baboon.



Oxpeckers hanging out.

We caught the loud lover.
