Sup Maun – Maun, Botswana

Filed under: Status — Darran at 9:16 am on Monday, July 28, 2008

We have made our way through Namibia, visited Etosha on the way, and are now in Maun, Botswana. Etosha has been the nicest part of the tour so far and we spent two nights camping inside the park. The first night we spent on the west end of the park and observed a watering hole that was just outside our campgrounds. During the day we took about an 8 hour game drive and saw a variety of animals including: oryx, jackal, lions, elephants, water buffalo, springbok, and giraffes. During the night the second day, we went on a game drive and came in touch with 3 lions. From our car, we were only 10 feet from the lions. Next, we are visiting the Okavango Delta and spending 2 nights at a bush camp. Just booked first accommodation in Sydney at Eva’s. Looking for jobs/apartments next.

Damn, I had lunch with Andy today and we both mentioned the fact of our extreme jealousy for you traveling and having all the fun while the man has us down in the ATX. Let me know when you nail down an apartment. I’m seriously looking to head out there sometime soon.

So where ya staying in Sydney? it’s my favorite city. You know I have some friends at Cisco there… Unfortunately they just finished their hiring until year end. But you would LOVE their office. It’s right across the harbor from the opera house and right next to my favorite carnival in the world. I hope you are having a great trip! Keep us posted!

Sydney is a fun place and King’s Cross is interesting too!
