Deception Valley Lodge Central Kalahari Game Reserve

Woke at 4am,dressed packed and ready to go for 5am for the road trip into Botswana..<br>Our guide Mike is a super guy (or should I say lad) of 23 who has the responsibility of us for the next 10 days! He drove us for 12 hours picking up new group members along the way (verity and grant) eventually arriving at Elephant Sands at Sunset... We had a lovely open fire braai including warthog sausages, whilst watching elephants drinking from both their waterhole and also ...

... inside out.<br>We drove 3 hours before picking up two other people - a couple from Perth - Verity and Grant who we became very good buddies with over the duration of this 10 day trip. So on we drove for 5, 6 or 7 hours - I can't remember but it was a long way. We crossed the South African border into Botswana, stopped off for some lunch in a random little town, sorted some cash out - we were now using Pula in Botswana although some places were still taking our Rand ...

... that helped.<br><br>On the right hand side is Haina Safari Lodge and we had to drive through a closed gate, which said 'enter at own risk&#8217;. Another 4kms approx to the Lodge itself, which is superb with its own bar, swimming pool and seating area. The manager and family were there to give us a warm welcome and to warn us not to venture far from camp or go walkabout as this is &#8216;lion country&#8217; and he assured us we would hear lions at ...

JUSTINE Last year we met Malcolm and Judi when Richard broke his glasses and Malcolm found his repair kit in the Land Rover , to fix them . Each time we saw them after that was with an African map spread all over the floor with various coloured spots all over it . I have always fancied going to Africa and when i showed interest Malcolm and Judi said to Richard and i ' Why dont you come and stay with us for a couple of weeks ' .We immediately said we would love to , but being nearly ...

2.5 hour early morning drive to the Delta from the campsite but got to see sum nice scenery. Was interesting when we got there cos of the route we took and the bumpyness of the road. We took Mokorro canoes to the campsite in the Delta. They are made from local trees and are very shallow draft to cope when the water ...

Travelled all day on the truck and got to the camp site just as sun was setting, so trying tp put a tent up in the dark was interesting fun, good thing had a head torch so i could avoid all the ants nests. Then had a meeting at the bar for everyone that was going into the Okovango Delta for 2 days. Only 5 people didnt want to go in either because of the cost or the high probability that ti will rain every day while there.

Feb 22nd - Kwa Nokeng to Elephant Sands After breakfast back at camp we set off towards Francistown (2nd largest city in Botswana). It was here that we first noticed a few marks on Cesca's neck - we assumed at this stage they were mosquito bites.A short drive today through Botswana to Elephant Sands. The landscape out of the window was flat, arid and sandy in comparison to northern SA where we had just come from. Elephants Sands is so named due to the water hole in front of the bar ...

We have moved west into Botswana. Much healthier and happier people. They are very protective of their animal life and when we crossed the border we had to get out of the van and walk across a mat that was covered with gasoline (I think). To make sure that whatever we carried in from Zimbabwe on our shoes was killed. Our game lodge was 5 star. Unbelievable that a country like Africa can have such high standards. This had ...

Après une nuit agitée, les zèbres ne sont pas de tout repos, je décide de m'offrir un bon petit dèj à l'auberge. J'arrive un peu tôt et en profite pour faire le tour du proprio. C'est tranquille. Pas d'éléphants ce matin. Finalement la table est dressée et la maîtresse de maison arrive. Nous discutons pendant presque deux heures sans voir le temps passer. Elle heureuse de pouvoir parler français, moi sous le charme de ses histoires. Il est ...
