We had a great day at Virunga lodge...we went with a friend, Julie, from Art of conservation who had us do crafts to show her students. Mine is pictured above. I asked her to tell them a 3 year old made it. Our assignment was to make a female bipedal gorilla then cover with glue and tissue paper....hmmm...mine was supposed to have a hand on hip and scratching her head...the details sorta got washed out lol guess i am throwing artist out of the career options!

Crows here are huge! In the mountain views, you can see how people have built right up the mountain until conservation efforts kicked in, so the gorillas used to come all the way down to where the houses/farms are,but have now been squished to the tops only. Very sad, but also beautiful views!
