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!
