The next Botswana stop was into the heart of the Okavango Delta which was still in high water. The camp was stunning, looking out over the waters with leopard and elephant patrolling the camp during the night. Game viewing was either by boat, by mokoro or by vehicle. Our mokoro trips reminded me of the photo of Freddie on her trip to "my Africa," sitting in a mokoro on the Delta, looking serene.
The boat trips cruised the hippo highways at high speed and although I am sure the speed was slower than it felt, we were very 007. Our fishing trip very nearly ended in Amanda out fishing me yet again, however as neither of us managed to land our fish it was hard to see if her fish was bigger than mine, despite the crytal clear water.
Unfortunately the game viewing was gain a little disappointing however we had some great kudu sightings, which would definitely have to be my favourite antelope. Yet again we were amused by zebra and giraffe and their constant staring. It can be quite creepy, but they are always looking at you. I can just imagine them pointing their hoof at their eyes then at us - "I see you."
