The Baobab Tree

One of the coolest trees I've ever seen is found in Zimbabwe and the northern parts of South Africa. They're called Baobab trees, and they're stinkin' huge! They're unique in that it looks like the roots are coming out of the top of the tree. On our way back from Zimbabwe, we stopped and took a few pics of this monster baobab tree.

Teddy and me dwarfed by the massive tree.

There was an opening at the base of the tree that looked like a cave.

This picture was taken from inside the tree, looking up.

Bhuti, Ted, and me.
