Going to Botswana

Breakfast at 7. Not really hungry after having eaten a 1 kilo game knuckle last night. Still having the meat sweat.
On the road towards Botswana at 7:30. Border crossing, paperwork, waiting for exit- and entry stamps in passport at two offices. Boring. Arrived at new lodge at 3, put up tents. The afternoon reserved for bush walk with local guides. But they were shopping in local town so we relaxed in the tent until 17:30.
Had a super walk with some native guys who showed us a lot of their local bush skills, digging for roots, making fire and explaining a lot about how the different leaves and roots were used for medicine, water and lots of other things. Back to the camp for a cold beer. Had a short explanation from the owner of the place - a very nice lady from South Africa who told us about her agreement with the native people and how their had a nice agreement with the guided tours, how different members of the tribe came and went due to their nomadic nature. So nice with some positive stories now and then. She really liked Botswana.
Dinner in the open as usual and then in the tent for some sleep.
