Aug 30, 2007 - Doing the Safari Thing....

Imagine this. The sun has gone down and there is a distinct chill in the air in the Khwai Community, located just outside Moremi Game Reserve in Botswana. ... Wow, what an incredible experience working for Dave's mobile safari company has been!!! To begin with, we took a private charter flight in a four seater plane from Livingstone in Zambia to Maun in Botswana! What an experience to be in such a small plane! We spent two weeks in total out in the Botswanan bush visiting three areas (Moremi Game Reserve in the Okavango Delta, Khwai Community and Chobe National Park). ... For the first safari we were general laborers, helping set up camp, prepping food, gathering firewood & water etc, alongside Dave's usual staff Conisious (the cook) and Felix.Imagine this.

Sep 2, 2006 - Moremi Game Reserve

Driving in we saw tonnes of wildlife - fantastic! unfortunately, we're having issues uploading photos from this part of the trip, so hold tight and we'll update when we can - the wait will be worth it! While going into the bush shower, Ella spotted a large water monitor passing very close by - good thing he didn't seem to notice or mind while he was on his way into the water hole to have his own bath.Driving in we saw tonnes of wildlife - fantastic! unfortunately, we're having issues uploading photos from this part of the trip, so hold tight and we'll update when we can - the wait will be worth it!

We arrived at the mokoros (shallow dugout canoes about 11 ft long, 2 ft wide) and met our polers (the polers stand at the back of the boat and propel the boat by planting and pushing against a long pole).We arrived at the mokoros (shallow dugout canoes about 11 ft long, 2 ft wide) and met our polers (the polers stand at the back of the boat and propel the boat by planting and pushing against a long pole)....
