I’ve always liked elephants, lucky enough to see elephants from a very young age. Either in Asia or in Africa. West and East. They’re the strongest animal on earth.

Hop then.” (Author’s note: the above was taken on Fisherman’s Wharf, early 21st century AD). Teotihuacán, Mexico. Pyramid of the Sun. Approximately 200 BC to 550 AD.…

“Scotty, this is taking wayyy much longer than I thought. Any suggestions?” “Take a deep breath, Captain. We brought back tons of material. Priceless. Not to mention the beer. The shiplike building above, by the Gardens of the bay, in Singapore, is quite unique, is it not?” “Yes, yes… It is. But… there are so…
Guang-xho (Canton) Airport. “When the buying stops, the killing can too.” Campaign to stop the buying of ivory and – hopefully – end elephant poaching. First time we set foot in Mainland China.
