In Tanzania, a local tale unfolds, uttering of a time when hippos lived entirely on land. However, they kept getting sunburned and pleaded with God to let them live in the water where they could stay cool. Initially, God said no because they would eat all of the fish. They assured Him that they wouldn't. In a nod to their commitment, they yawn, showcasing empty mouths as an assurance of promises kept. #ThereIsNothingBetterThan a #babyhippo #Tanzania #Serengeti #Plebchain #Nostriches image

Thank you! Seems like an extraordinary place with very welcoming people. I have even been practicing some Swahili! Poa kichizi kama ndizi ndani ya friji! <3
I shall! Do you know that "Cool bananas" is also used in English? So cool!Although, I think it is contextually different, and I do prefer "Crazy cool like a banana in the fridge" (Which I think is what poa kichizi kama ndizi ndani ya friji translates to?) Haha :)
