Beautiful Botswana, Beautiful Delta...
Authored By:
Been a busy week so far!
First Stop: Khama Rhino Sanctuary in Serowe (about 5 hours from Gaborone). We went on two game drives and were able to see impala, giraffe, buffalo, warthogs, wildebeests, zebra and countless birds!
Second Stop: We visited SOS village, an orphanage located in Maun. There we listened to kids play in marimba – some of us gave it a try while others played games, soccer & taught kids the Macarena.
Still in Maun... we took a boat cruise along with Thamalakane River.
Third Stop: Oddballs Camp! Days consisted of nature walks, mokoro rides, relaxing watching the sunset and hearing the hippos and elephants around our tents
• Went swimming in the Delta
• Worked on final group projects and incorporated the guides insights
We're nearing the end of our time here in Botswana. Tomorrow is final presentations and the farewell dinner, then Saturday we head home! We'll do one final blog post tomorrow night!
