Angelina Jolie seemed to enjoy her trip to Africa with her children, but she reportedly couldn't help but felt nostalgic over the time she spent there with Brad Pitt. Rumor has it, the actress was overwhelmed as memories of her ex-husband and their time together in Africa rushed through her brain.

Angelina had "fond memories" with Brad in Africa as their first biological child, Shiloh Jolie-Pitt, was born there. "Obviously, Shiloh was born there, so she feels a very close connection to the continent, and she loved Ethiopia," a source told HollywoodLife.com. "Angelina is also planning to stop over in Namibia before flying back home--she has very fond memories of the time she and Brad spent there when Shiloh was born."

The 42-year-old actress took her six children to Africa on Saturday, June 17, a day before Father's Day. While it was rumored that Brad was disappointed he couldn't spend Father's Day with his kids, the "World War Z" actor apparently had an early celebration with them. "The kids got to spend some time with Brad, on Saturday morning, before going to the airport," the source added. "They went to his house and had a really lovely early Father's Day celebration with him. They gave their dad homemade cards and some little presents they created especially for him, and Brad was absolutely thrilled."

Angelina filed for divorce from Brad in September last year after two years of marriage. They were involved in a custody battle over their children, before reaching a contemporary custody agreement, which stated that the kids would remain in the "Maleficent" actress' custody while Brad would have "therapeutic visitation" with them and attend individual therapy sessions.
