Okavango Day One

This great River delta formed by the Okavango River flowing out of Anigolato the north disappears into the air. We entered the delta north east of the small city Maun. The river leaves the delta flowing due west. We loaded all of our tents and enough food and water for two and a half days on a remote island. The small very shallow dugout canoes are called Mokoros. They are each propelled by one person with along pole. They can carry three passengers maximum.






The first afternoon after setting up camp. My tent is the second on the left.





We went for an elephant hippo hunt. I saw my first wild elephant on foot.
