Day 5.
Off in the Makoro's at the crack of dawn for some Hippo spotting.


Although no Hippo's, managed to see an African Fish Eagle.


Off in the Makoro's to try and find the Hippo's again in the late-afternoon.


Success!


Opening his big mouth to remind us who's boss.


And again from the safety of land.

We all got back in the 4WD's and headed back into Maun, set up the tents again and had a much needed shower. Had a Botswana beef burger for lunch, went for a swim in the pool and then a run in the afternoon.
Up early again for the 400k drive to Elephant Sands tomorrow in northern Botswana to hopefully see some more wildlife.
