Saturday 21 April. Arrived in north west Botswana at Drotsky's cabins (991 m, S 18.41684, E 21.88968) situated on the banks of the Okavango where we camped for two nights right next to the river. At this point the river is flowing east but takes a turn south a little downstream on its way to the wider delta. We went on the evening cruise on the river and saw many birds including a Goliath Heron, Senegal coucal and the White Fronted Bee eaters shown in the photo. They were nesting in the river bank. At this point in the delta, which isn't far from Namibia, the vegetation is mainly papyrus and reeds with the main river restricted to one channel with the flood plain at the moment over 2 or 3 kilometers wide. There were Hippos about as we heard them in the night, but they're impossible to spot in the dense vegetation. On the cruise we also caught a glimpse of a small Sitatunga (that's what we were told anyway as we'd not seen one before). We decided to stay another day here and relax with free coffees at the bar and watching the river nearing its long journeys end. It was good to get the campfire burning as they run on South African time here so its gets dark an hour earlier than in Rundu and also, after sunset, it was getting cooler.
