I have friends and relatives that take trips to Africa. They go to fancy lodges in beautiful places and are treated like royalty. They hunt or go on photo excursions and try to stay away from where the African people actually live.

I read a book recently “The Lower River”. UGH! The filth, brutality, ignorance and squalor was hard to take.

You can still have a great trip in Zimbabwe as long as you put it out of your mind that the leader thinks of you as a filthy european and keeps his people in crushing poverty.

None of that compares to the plight of the poor Rhino. /s
