Jeg synes fortsatt det er veldig rart å tenke på. Det er rart å tenke på at den finnes. Den andre verden. En verden som nesten ligner mer på Tolkiens eller Lewis' verden enn vår. Men den finnes. I vår verden. Jeg har sett den.
I still think it is strange to think about it. It is strange to think that it exists. The other world. A world that almost looks more like that of Tolkien and Lewis than ours. But it exists. In our world. I have seen it.
There is a world where baboons inhabit the road and search each other for lice and play hide and seek and eat sausage fruits.
There is a world where an elephant in his puperty is hiding behind a tree (more than willing to pick a fight with any truck that might want to pass) and where his brother is digging holes in the river bank, seemingly just for fun.
There is a world where the giraffs stand. They stand and they stand. They stand still (and look increadibly amazing). Until they lift one leg, and one more and yet another (wheras the entire flock of birds looking for lice take off from its back).
Det finnes en verden hvor løver mener bittesmå busker er godt nok skjul eller skygge til at de kan dovne og late seg. Det finnes en verden hvor en hannløve synes det er viktigere å gjøre kur til sin utkårede enn å flykte fra innpåslitne safarister.
There is a world where a furry head suddenly pops up from a hole in the ground and where the spottet hyena reveals where he has his hiding place.
There is a world where the hippos twist and turn in the mud and puff loudly and snort when they feel like it.
There is a world where the buffalos look up from their grasing to stare you in the eye.
Det finnes en verden hvor et stort neshorn viser vei til vannhullet til et annet, bittelite neshorn. Det finnes en verden hvor trærne ser ut som vanlige trær, men som plutselig viser seg å tjene som sofakrok for søvnige leoparder. Det finnes en sånn verden. Jeg har sett den. Den finnes. Så rart!
There is a world where a huge rhino shows a tiny little rhino the way to the water hole. There is a world where the trees at first look like just trees, but which suddenly prove to serve as couch for a sleepy leopards. There is such a world. I have seen it. It is there. It is so strange.

Karsan! Gratulerer med dagen i går! Jeg husker at jeg skreiv hilsen til deg i fjor, men da hadde du reklamert litt på bloggen din... Unnskyld for at jeg glømte den i år :)
