Today's photo-of-the-day is from Zimbabwe. After a safari ride in the bush of Zambezi National Park, our safari driver stopped our vehicle at a watering hole, got out and set up a bar on a shelf attached to the front of the vehicle. Time for a sunset Happy Hour in the wild.

A bonus photo is after the jump.
