Bambino as mascot
I decided to have a mascot for my trip this year… Bambino the little giraffe from Africa. Actually Bambino has been with me for several years now, ever since my mom got him for me as a gift. On arrival in New York she had to get a taxi with a sunroof to transport him to the hotel. Here Bambino is chomping on some desert shrubberies. I am sure he prefers the juicy Mopanie leaves back home.
