Happy Birthday to the amazing Sir David Attenborough!
Thank you so much for all your beautiful and inspiring nature programs, your moving narratives celebrate every animal species alive. Small or big. The animal kingdom must be proud today! As are we.
For us it was extra special to have seen A Gorilla Story last week, because the day after, we went for a gorilla tracking at Bisate (Rwanda) with the legendary Louis, who is the only still active guide of Dian Fossey. The Pablo Group was too far away, but it was a thrill to do a tracking with Francois and we saw two gorilla families, very close. We were speechless. This was our third gorilla tracking, but this was something else! Like mr. Attenborough says: “There is more meaning in exchanging a glance of a gorilla than with any other animal I know”, and we agree on that. You can look into their souls, and that experience is breathtaking.
