Another Day in Chobe Park Botswana - 26 Nov.2018

We took 1,865 photos today, so what you will see is smidgen of what we saw. I’ll do my best at keeping the words to a minimum. Stressed bob.

Time for the morning drive. There are two a day, an early morning one and a late afternoon, early evening one.Lupita is great at spotting things with her binoculars, while Luis is the family photographer. As for Linda and I, let’s just say that Linda and binoculars don’t get along and leave it at that.
