January 1978 holydays
Africa has always attracted me since he was a child, I dreamed deserts, animals that looked only at the zoo, forests seen in Tarzan movies, its inhabitants and their customs.
Finally, having the ability to leave this year I did make my dream true.
Armed trust of my camera I started with a trip organized by an agency, group, formed in Rome, is the friendly people and friendly with them, I immediately made friends.
In Dar el Salam At the airport to welcome us were in charge of the agency and the guide, means of transport were two buses VW type with the roof open, so you can go out and take pictures without, in some places was very dangerous.
At first sight of the animals, the cameras began to take dozens of pictures, the same guide advised us to wait until then we could see and photograph a greater number of animals. At the end of the tour, I counted 11 films that unfortunately have been ruined by the apparatus of control in the customs, the least damaged are those published here.
It 'been a great trip and wonderful, tiring but very instructive, it has been slept in tent camps and small hotels where at bedtime should sweep animals infilatisi between the sheets, there are those who did not hardly ever slept and dormicchiava day.
Hazards not there have been only once in a forest on a trail after a bend we came across a group of elephants to stop about ten meters, when the driver was immediately stopped and asked us to stay Still and silent, when, however, a large elephant ears, shaking was approaching, he immediately entered the reverse and the risk of investing the van that followed us, we moved to a safe distance, and here we have photographed throughout the their beauty and grandeur.
At the end: tired but happy, we took a plane scassatissimo that led us to the Seychelles Islands for a well-deserved rest.
