Day 11

Today's trip was another early rise and off to borders to make the crossing over to Botswana. It was a concoction of boat rides and bus rides to get us to the start of our safari! 
The team divided in team with half starting the day with tea and cakes on the boat and a morning or water safari, whilst the other team had tea and cakes on land and headed off the Chobe Safari park. We all met together at lunch at a great restaurant on the Chobe river where a huge buffet was on display. The river safari identified the main point at which four african countries met - Zambia, Zimbabwe, Namibia, and Botswana - an impressive landmark!
The teams then swapped safari tours in the afternoon so both groups got the experience of water and land safari with elephants, hippos, giraffe and crocodiles all in sight!!! 
Personally a very exciting and impressive experience!
