Barby here reporting directly from Chief's Island in the Moremi Game Reserve, Botswana.
We finally had our first safari drive in Chief's Camp and have quickly realized that these guides have the best off-roading skills EVER!!! We saw plenty of species and some rare birds. We even saw a pack of wild dogs (which are rare to see in Africa) and a lioness and her cub walking along at night.
Have a bunch of resident bats that like to hang out at our tent and baboons that like to just hang out at the camp! I've heard they cause quite a riot at night so tonight's sleep should be interesting!
I've taken WAY too many pictures.....lost count....and have many more to go!!!!!! Can't wait to share most of them with you (I fear if I share all of them, it may be overkill....).....
The view from this camp is AMAZING (right on a bend of the Okavongo Delta and in the middle of swampland). The sounds of wildlife are never ending and we even spotted some red lechwe and elephant without even leaving the camp!
Having a great time.....Africa has lived up to all our expectations and exceeded them in many ways!
Off to dinner and drinks. Will check back soon....
Signing off.
Barby and Manny
Signing out...gonna go
So glad you guys are having an awesome trip! I want to see all your pictures so don't worry about overkill :) In places like Africa I am sure there is plenty of scenery and wildlife to photograph! Wish you the best, Jorge
