A really huge tree in Africa - According to legend (and what a missionary told me), the people of Africa believe this type of tree was once a very beautiful, proud tree. God (Allah according to the Muslim people) saw the tree's pride and in order to humble it, uprooted the tree and stuck it back in the ground with the roots above ground. Makes a good legend anyway.

This is the sort of picture one takes during a nearly four-hour layover in Paris.
