Chobe safari and Victoria Falls

Today started my third week here, it's hard to believe that my four weeks are more than half over. I had a supervisor here for the first two weeks, now I am doing the teaching on my own.  I'm looking forward to it, but it will take a good bit of time in preparation. I will also spend some time in the clinic this week, and will actually be seeing one of the patients I saw last week for a follow up appointment, and I'm excited for that.

Another weekend gone by means another trip taken. Two of my roommates and I went up to the northern region of Botswana for a safari. We had a view of the Chobe river from the porch of our room. We took a cruise down the river, drinking beer and spying on animals. We saw buffalo, hippos, giraffe, warthogs, eagles, crocodiles, and the best part was watching the elephants play in the water.

Next we crossed the border into Zimbabwe and then Zambia to see Victoria Falls, an incredible sight, and one of the seven natural wonders of the world.

Rain got in the way of our last safari a bit, but we were still able to see a giraffe, a lion, baboons, and hundreds of impalas.

XOXO,
