Becky's parents are visiting, so we've been able to do some traveling with them! We stayed at Khama Rhino Sanctuary, the Okavango River Lodge, and Planet Baobab. We saw lots of animals, so here are a few pictures to give you a taste. Come visit us sometime, and we'll make sure you see them in person!

Baby Impala |

Our Guide brought the animals to us…by hand. |
|
While we were playing with the turtle, the rhino decided to come check us. |
|
Gemsbok/Oryx (I think they have face paint on) |
|
This zebra wanted a new Facebook profile pic. |
|
Lots of Giraffe, figured we'd take the stereotypical safari picture. |
|
This Franklin was interested in helping Becky fill out her bracket for March Madness. |
|
The Hornbills are very vain. |
|
Dave on a typical workday, digging up grass. Boring, but it's his life... |
|
A few of the many rhino. So many animals, it's impossible not to have other variety in the background! |
|
This monitor lizard (~4 feet long) lived right by our tent at the lodge. He liked to sprint past us when we weren't watching. |
|
We took a flight above the delta to view game from the air. Our cruising altitude was 500 feet. Saw lots of animals, and was a great experience. |
|
Becky and I volunteered to be bait for the crocs, the water was great and very clear. |
|
Our Pilot posed with us in front of his plane, after the flight. |
|
A cluster of 4 Baobab trees. These things are huge, and very old. The oldest one in Botswana is 5000 years old. |
