Magical Moments in Botswana……………..
The whole trip was a dream-come-true. The Delta was just as I had dreamt it to be ... a paradise on earth, a Garden of Eden. I was also very lucky : the weather was superb throughout with the most fantastic sunsets....there was enough water for all the mokoro and boat activities and although the flowers would have been better earlier on, there were still quite a lot and ... you can't have everything! the animals were fantastic..I saw leopard four times in five days ... must be almost a record especially as they were three different animals. In fact only the rhino was missing in the "Big Five" count .. but you know that wasn't my priority anyway, and I revelled in the scenery - so different to Kenya and Tanzania. I think the mokoro rides were the highlight for me....the silence and gentle movement through the rushes and the water-lilies makes one feel as though one is indeed alone in a very special paradise (Mrs P.Deubel)
