“It’s Africa, Deal with it”

Well, here we are in Botswana. After all the traveling of the first week we have been pretty busy for the last one. While I was sandboarding at Swakopmund, Amber went on a township tour to play with some of the local kids, try the beer and eat some of the food which consisted of fried up catepillar like worms. Delicious. From there we went to a cheetah park to play with some tame ones, watch some cubs play and feed wild cheetahs some cut up donkey meat from the back of a truck. Was a great night, and so cool to see the animals up close.
From there, we went to Etosha National Park for a game drive and were really really lucky in the amount of animals that we saw – the elusive Leopard, Elephants, Warthog, Zebra, Giraffe, Springbok, Kudu, some birds, Hyena, Jackals and lions. Was a long day but hopefully lots of good photos. I’m using film so have to get it developed yet.
Currently we are in Botswana chilling out for a few days. Due to budget we aren’t doing an overnight in the Delta so yesterday I was working on recovering from my hangover, relaxing by the pool and checking out the crocodile farm at the campsite. Terrifying creatures. Today, we are wandering around town, doing internet (as you can see) and heading to Nando’s for lunch as it looks like the safest place (food wise) to eat.
We hit Vic Falls on friday so will have another update then 🙂
