🇧🇼 Botswana
Rainstorm in the Kalahari Desert
We’re off grid the next three nights, staying in a bush camp without electricity, near the Okavango Delta in Botswana. It might be awhile until the next update.
Here are some photos from yesterday, which was mostly a long drive thru the Kalahari Desert during a series of big rainstorms. During a lull, we randomly pulled off to cook lunch out of the truck.
We gave the leftovers to a local family who was very interested in our big vehicle and what the heck we were doing.
I also busted out some local lager, improbably named St Louis, which was among the lowest rated beer on untappd I’ve ever had, and shared with our adventure family. We’re having fun, but dang I miss happy hour at Wren Südhalle!
We ended the day at our hotel, which donates space for a local women-run program that recycles booze bottles from the hotel, melts down the glass, and makes jewelry. We got a little demonstration of the process.
Speaking of the hotel, we’ve been pleasantly surprised with the accommodations so far.
