• Maun

    Sep 7–8 in Botswana ⋅ ☀️ 32 °C

    Another big travel day today, crossing into Botswana and driving to Maun (pron. Ma-un). 415km and 6 hours 40 minutes driving time. Botswana has long sections of once sealed roads full of tyre-eating potholes, requiring frequent detours into the dirt.
    We arrived in Maun around 3pm and had a late lunch at the Dusty Donkey Cafe.
    Accommodation at Cresta Maun Hotel. We had a swim and drinks by the pool before a buffet dinner. The room was small, the bed was huge, extending so close to the window you couldn't walk there.
