We drove from Namibia along the Okavango River towards Maun. We set up our camp at a pretty little lodge. We were able to spend the night directly by the Okavango. It was only a few steps from the cars to a barrier made of two wooden poles. Behind it the land broke off steeply and the river flowed about 5 meters below us. When it got dark we heard the hippos snorting in the river. I took the large MagLite torch to watch them and went to the barrier. I hadn't noticed that it was over the cliff at one end. When I wanted to reach them I plunged into the water - to the hippos and crocodiles. Fortunately, I didn't drop the lamp. Swimming, I tried to find a place on the rock face to get out of the water. But it was impossible. Corinna and the others heard me and came straight away. The Landy's strong tow rope was my salvation. I could climb on it in safety. Apart from a few scratches, nothing happened to me.
I had to park the Landy further away from the river. I couldn't stand his proximity that evening.

Never smile at a crocodile
No, you can't get friendly with a crocodile
Don't be taken in by his welcome grin
He's imagining how well you'd fit within his skin
Never smile at a crocodile
Never tip your hat and stop to talk awhile
Never run, walk away, say good-night, not good-day
Clear the aisle but never smile at Mister Crocodile
You may very well be well bred
Lots of etiquette in your head
But there's always some special case, time or place
To forget etiquette
For instance:
Never smile at a crocodile
No, you can't get friendly with a crocodile
Don't be taken in by his welcome grin
He's imagining how well you'd fit within his skin
Never smile at a crocodile
Never dip your hat and stop to talk awhile
Never run, walk away, say good-night, not good-day
Clear the aisle but never smile at Mister Crocodile
Parco Naturale di Strugnano (sitoUNESCO)
In cima alla scogliera, dove vi conduce un sentiero che parte da dietro la chiesa, si trova la croce in pietra bianca del 1600. Oltre a segnalare la prossimità del santuario della Vergine la croce avverte i navigatori della vicinanza della terraferma. Da questo punto spettacolare i visitatori possono godere di una vista stupenda sul golfo sotto la falesia, sul Golfo di Trieste, col bel tempo si può vedere fino al Monte Tricorno (Triglav).
Scogliere spettacolari e viste costiere: Il confine settentrionale del parco è caratterizzato da una scogliera di flysch alta 80 metri, che offre panorami mozzafiato sul Golfo di Trieste e sullo scintillante Mare Adriatico.
Saline tradizionali e laguna: Le saline ancora in attività e la laguna costiera di Strugnano sono una testimonianza viva delle tradizionali pratiche di produzione del sale e rappresentano un habitat ideale per numerose specie di uccelli.
Ricca biodiversità : Il parco ospita una grande varietà di piante e animali, rendendolo un luogo eccellente per il birdwatching e l'esplorazione della natura.
So, my hubby kept laughing at me for my Crocs with the daisies on, said i was funny and cute, for which I replied 'i bet you would like a pair of crocs with your own flowers' fast forward a few days to his birthday and I had these Camo Crocs waiting with my own home grown Gerberas as personalised Jibbitz.
Just hoping to make a smile or two at our very stylish family this weekend....

From "How the Elephant got his Trunk": A self-propelled man-o-war with an armor-plated upper deck. Rudyard Kipling. One of my favorite childhood stories. But the actual beast gives me a primal fear response.
Nile Crocodile (Crocodylus niloticus) basking in the sun after a meal. From the looks of it, this croc fed on some type of bird. The Nile Crocodile is one of the largest apex predators in Africa, and only the Saltwater Crocodile is larger among crocodilians. An adult averages 64-68 teeth in that long, narrow mouth.

Spring MUST be in the air... I feel like having FUN!!!
This is a photo I took through the window of a shop where they sold nothing but Crocs...
Not my best shot, but a FAVOURITE, it does still make me smile, with all the colours and I'm very happy with the title, lol
For the non-English speaking people, it means 'what an absolute mess', 'what a load of bs'...
Wishing you all the best and thank you, M, (*_*)

Brand new Crocs as seen in a charity store.
Not my size or I would've bought them. Perhaps I should have bought them as someone has a pair on eBay for $49.99!

Crocodile at Butterfly Creak in Auckland. We were given tickets to visit Butterfly Creak when my daughter was really sick. It is a great family outing. There are a lot of animals, the most interesting of course are the crocodiles. This is the only place in New Zealand I know of you can see real crocks like this.
I took this shot of the crocodile's eye, when it was resting in bright sunlight, near the pond in its enclosure, in a zoo. Croc eyes are amazing. They can see in color, in the night and under water.
it's my Crocs ♥♥ .. it's the B-E-S-T shoes eva ;D .. i LOVE it (L) ,,

Whilst taking some bluebell shots in the local woods, I had a double take at this scene! This log triggered my inbuilt "fight or flight" alert system for a nano second. It certainly looked like some reptilian crocodile emerging from the depths.
The more I looked at it the more the logs form and texture seemed to resemble a crocodile. So for a bit of humourous interest I thought I would post it. There has been absolutely no manipulation of the image, this was exactly how this old tree appeared. So if " you go down to the woods today...." as they say!
Il croco selvatico, appartiene alla famiglia delle Iridaceae ed è classificato come Crocus vernus. Il suo habitat è piuttosto vasto e lo possiamo trovare dai prati umidi e dalle praterie umide dei faggeti fino ai pascoli alpini al limite della vegetazione, ma solo laddove la vegetazione prativa non si sviluppa con grande anticipo, impedendogli di completare il suo ciclo.
