Nature in Botswana

I loved the easily accessible game drive - a boat trip down the River Front section of the Chobe National Park. It's a peaceful boat trip where you can spot elephants going about their daily lives - mud baths, taking dips... Watching elephants play in the river was a very moving experience. 
Once back on dry land, I got around in a rented four-wheel drive and spent nights in two of the park's three bush camps (Ihaha, Savuti and Linyanti). You'll be close to the local wildlife and hear lions roaring in the night! During the day I spotted a pride of dozing lions; the cubs were adorable but the males really impressed me - you can get right up close to them! I also saw quite a few spotted hyenas, hippos and crocodiles.
