The Microlight Flight of Tafika
John Coppinger who along with his wife Carol created Remote African Safari's Tafika Camp has a little microlight that we all just had to take a whirl at. It was a great way to wake up in the morning and it beats anything going on at the midway of the Puyallup fair.
Myah getting strapped up.
Elyse getting ready for take off.
Nancy, getting set for the wild blue yonder.
I had the camera along on my ride and snapped a few aerial shots of the Luangwa River and the area of the Luangwa Park that adjoins Tafika's concession. Good thing I didn't have that lens cap in my pocket.
John had spotted about a half a dozen giraffe in this one area as he flew Elyse, Myah and Nancy individually around the area. They had hidden themselves by the time it was my turn, but John was determined to flush them out. After three smaller and closer 360s in the air, they finally showed themselves from underneath the trees.
The meandering Luangwa River!
