And We're Off!
Heading off to the airport, IAH! Next Stop Atlanta, then a straight 15 hrs to Joburg, where we'll catch another plane to Gaborone! We have a room at a casino resort to relax and unwind before we head out to the white hot sands of the Kalahari.

Ready to Go! Almost...
... I have a Cannon Powershot something, with a few specialty filters and lens attachments that I've yet to master. Plan on getting some practice before we go. We also have a HD Camcorder and a couple small Sony pocket cameras so we'll always be ready!

It was very informative and we learned a lot of ...

First stop was the Welcome Center, they were very helpful and alerted us to a chemical spill on I-10 and gave us another way to head to the coast where we wanted to go. On our way we saw our first oil well pump in a field surrounded ...
