Back in Paris 2 decades after first trip here. This city is so freaking amazing, so much to do, so alive, old, new, and beautiful 

My wife and I were there May 19 through May 22.  It had been more than twenty years since we were there.  Had a great time.  We had been in Belgium for eight days and then ended up in Paris.

Not into photography so I'm curious as to what type of camera you use and roughly how close were you to the animals when you took the pics.  That's assuming you didn't just copy pics after doing a Google search!

iPhone camera for me but one our guides has great equipment that I’ll receive post-trip.

100 ft from the lions and hippos; REALLY close at times to other animals. Very glad the mama elephant that was pissed at us and ten feet from our open air Range Rover decided to turn back. Leopard had an impala up in a tree having a violent lunch 25 feet from us.
