Africa Part 3: Going Mobile!

The last 4 days of our trip were very different from the first 6 - we went mobile. The mobile camp felt much different from the lodges, although not due to lack of amenities - we were not roughing it. Our guide at this camp prided himself on being so far out there that we would not see another car - and he held to it. We were on our own when it came to what we wanted to do, where we wanted to go, and what we wanted to see.

Africa Part 2: It Got Wet!

We continued our African adventure at Camp Moremi. The camp is located within the Moremi game reserve - which is a separate reserve from Savute in the Chobe National park, but still within the larger Okavango Delta. We spent 3 days here, exploring a very different ecosystem which was much more wet and lush than Savute. 8/6/2024 Our drive from the airport to Camp Moremi was relatively uneventful, we got stopped twice by elephants in the road and then by Bush Buck - which is a new type of antelope that spends most of it’s time in the water.

Africa Part 1: It's So Dry!

Africa - here we come! After about a year of planning, Angela and I along with Derek and Diane are off to Africa for 2 weeks on an epic Safari. We will be traveling to 3 locations across Botswana - including Savute, Moreimi Game reserve, and a walking Safari and a float trip in the Okavango Delta. This post will include the trip to Africa and the first camp - Savute Safari Lodge.
