From the bush

We are now deep in the heart of the Okavango Delta in northern Botswana. Basically, it is us, a few guides, a few more guests and a ton of wildlife. The sights have been truly amazing. Last night, a female lioness killed a young giraffe about 200 feet from some of the cabins. We are escorted to our rooms each night by guards because you never know what is watching you. It is fantastic! At our last lodge a group of hippos walked right by our room each night as they headed back to the water. Jen yelled at me in the morning for snoring loud, and I have yet to tell her that I was wide awake as I want her to be able to sleep the rest of the trip. We were able to see a white rhino and a black rhino today, of which there are only about 20 in the entire country. Currently, Jen is tracking the leopard and the cheetah...the hunt continues. I could start to try to list all the things we have seen up close and personal but I think there is a word limit with this blog.
