• Nxai pan day 4 - Baines Boababs

    May 12 in Botswana ⋅ ☀️ 20 °C

    This morning we were up at 5:30am and were the first to leave camp in search of the elusive lions. We passed Nxai pan and the waterhole near camp but didn’t see much except for zebra, giraffe and the bat eared foxes. After the initial loop we drove back down the 30km entrance road towards Baines Boababs. A group of Boabab trees Thomas Bain painted 150 years ago but despite being told the trees were accessible they weren’t for us.
    We did see a game vehicle and he did say we could drive through the floods no problem but we didn’t want to chance it and turned around.
    Baines Boababs was a fail and a must do next time.
