Vultures, at Gweta

Vultures are so impressive, their strength is awesome.
They suffer from farmers poisoning animals and then they feed on the carcase.

Domboshaba Ruins, near Francistown

We found this place on a drive from Francistown.
Amazing to see. A must do if you are in the area.
From the 15th century.

The kitchen.

Central Kalahari Game Reserve (or CKGR for short)

Another great place. Very hot, it hit 52 degrees during the afternoon.
The road in was sandy but quite good.
We arrived a bit late in the seson so we did not see as many animals as we could of.
Saw our first honey badger so that was cool.
Got a government camp site for 20 pula/night/person.
The private ones are 150 pula/night/person and they are exactly the same.

Could not get any better shots of it before it ran off.
