Saving The San

So its been a while since I've posted anything only because there hasnt been anything really new to report. The last couple of weeks I've been in Gaborone learning more Setswana and attending different lectures. On sunday I will be leaving for the Okavanga Delta in Botswana working with an organization called TOCADI which is trying to help different minority groups, specifically the San. For more information i suggest you check out the links below.

Chobe National Park

I just got back from Chobe National Park. Spent several nights camping while on safari in the park. I was able to take some amazing pictures so Ill just let the pictures do the talking for me. My favorite animals there were the lions. Our guides refered to them as the "golden eyes". Looking at the pictures you can see why. The lions wondered into our camp sight one night and woke me up, which was exciting to say the least. Besides that, i went into Zambia to check out Victoria Falls (one of the seven natural wonders of the world). I'll try and post some pictures of the falls later. All i have to say about that is the falls are big, very big.
