Beautiful MomentsThe best night of my life was spent lying in the bottom of a boat, floating down a river low enough to be under the thin layer of mist gathering at about 3am such that it scudded between me and the stars.
Make us feel all warm and fluffy. Tell us about the most beautiful moments in your life so far.

Summer of 2004My addition to this qotw would be from the summer of 2004, being in Livingstone, Zambia. Just up from victoria falls theres a small village, it doesnt get many visitors because its a poverty stricken place but i was on a school exchange and so to an extent, thats what we were being shown. Anyway, just outside of the village is a giant baobab (really odd looking tree), with a ladder going up to it. I climbed it at about 6 in the evening, when the sun was just setting. The view was spectacular. Miles of tough savanna and at the centre of it, the Zambezi river and the spray of victoria falls, illuminated in a reddish-orange cos of the sunset. The tree's bough was scarred by the signatures and initials of previous visitors, I felt it appropriate to add my signature at this poignant moment.
This qotw is soppy, i like it.
