Hipopótamos en el Lago Tengrela | Okakene, Viajes y Aventuras en Africa Occidental Entre largas hileras de árboles y juncos se encuentra este lago que es la residencia de muchas especies de aves y de una gran familia de hipopótamos. En una canoa de madera comienza la expedición en busca de estos orondos mamíferos. A pesar de su apariencia simpática, los hipopótamos son muy territoriales y considerados los más peligrosos entre los animales terrestres de África. Como dice nuestro guía mientras me guiña un ojo: “mientras no estornudéis demasiado fuerte, no pasará nada… ; )” ( nuestra única respuesta es una risilla nerviosa) Durante la estación seca es más fácil verlos ya que el nivel del agua y la extensión del lago es menor , así que sin duda esta es la mejor época del año para hacerles una visita.
t-shirt latch hook rug tutorial I really love flokati rugs. I have two that are safely tucked away in my parents basement awaiting our reunion. When I learned that I would be having a child and building a nursery for him, I wanted a flokati. I’m going to show you how it’s done, but let me warn you- while this rug was super inexpensive to make with the resource of money- it was very costly in the resource of time. And now, this is how to make your very own latch hook rug. Supplies: Latch hook canvas latch hook tool old t-shirts scissors or rotary cutting tool/mat seam binding masking tape dye (optional) All of these things should be available at your local craft store, with the exception of the old t-shirts. On to the making! Once you’ve gathered all of your shirts, use a rotary cutting tool and mat (you can certainly use scissors but the results are less precise) to cut the shirts into 1 inch strips. Once you have all of the strips cut, it’s time to dye them if you’d like. Now you’re ready to hook! xo elle
