in the okavango delta

hej folks.
well, i am telling you, it is not easy to find a cheap tour into the delta. but the delta and maun as well, they are expensive. i would have liked to spend a few nights in the delta, but unfortunaltelly, i8 couldn’t make it.
instead, i went on a mokoro-tour. a mokoro is a little boat with which polers take you through the tiny, tiny cannels that run through the eastern delta, that is thickly covered by reed.
during the day, it is hard to see animals in the delta. they would all come out mostly in the early cool hours of the morning. the special experience of a mokoro trip is the unique quietness of the boat trip. you would feel like you are completely alone in the world. besides, you can still see some nice birds… you know how much i love that;).
still, i was lucky to see at least some very amazing ones: giraffes and a hippo.





Hey Martina,
wow, nice pictures!! I’d love to go on such a boat trip as well. Very great!!!
Hope you are enjoying your days over there!
