Giraffes are everywhere - I can get one very easily across the border but then I don't get the kind of a green backdrop like you find here. This is from Belfast, Ireland. When I saw it I told myself this should be one of my other highlights of the cruise. See if you agree with me. Cheers!!!

This looks like a handsome young male Rothschild's Giraffe, Wilson - and I agree the green vegetation gives a nice backdrop for the image!

You don't often see giraffes with so much green. It does make for a special photo and memory.

Nice image and agree that the vegetation adds to the image.
