We arrived at our final camp, Kwetsani Lodge [http: /botswana.lodgesafari.com/Botswana_Safari_Lodge_Options-travel/kwetsani-camp-moremi-game-reserve.html], with excitement to learn more about the Okavango Delta [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Okavango_Delta]. While all of our camps surrounded the world’s largest inland delta, Kwetsani Lodge was an island within those marshy, muddy delta waters. The beautiful treehouse lodge made me feel like a kid again. We had another female guide, Florence, who had actually been one of the first female guides at Chobe Game Lodge - Botswana, the big, small country. In a way it is, it’s the size of Texas and only an estimated 2 million residents. A cool Botswana tip: 85% of the population is literate — much higher than most countries in Africa and many in the world. ----------- Botswana is known for its birds. Here, we spotted a King Fisher.
