Expedition Botswana - Phase II
The sunrise each morning sends long shadows across our campsite.
Tightly zipped bags rest in front of tents where inside our Youth
Ambassadors are beginning to rumble.
This process usually gets underway
around six o'clock, but today it’s closer to five. We're eager to get
going because today is a traveling day, a chance to reset and reflect.
So far we’ve learned about how plants survive with little water, and how
much extra water the body needs when exercising in the desert. We've
also discussed water filter techniques and yesterday, the highlight so
far, we got to meet the indigenous Bushmen at their traditional village
inside the Central Kalahari Game Reserve (check back very soon for our
story from that visit).
The sun has now crested the horizon, and the
little dew on our camp is drying up. Tents must be packed away, and when
the sun rises again tomorrow we’ll begin phase two of our educational
journey!
