The African South - Day 9 - Divundu - Kasane

Another early start – 5:00 a.m.! 😴

But it was totally worth it – the sunrise 🌅 over the river was absolutely breathtaking.

We continued our drive through the Bwabwata National Park. It’s home to elephants 🐘 and many other animals – though they hide well, as the vegetation 🌳 here is quite different again.

At Kongola, the park comes to an end, and by 11:30 a.m. we reached the border with Botswana 🇧🇼.

Botswana – rich in 💎, politically stable, about 7 million people and home to the largest 🐘 population in Africa 😀.

At our lodge, we checked into a lovely, spacious room. Swimsuits on and straight into the 🏊‍♀️ – with 36°C in the shade, we needed it! Here, even the 👟 soles start to melt 😅.

After a short rest, it was time to head out by 🛶 on the Chobe River – to meet the 🦛 and 🐊.
