1. Moriti Bush Camp and Botswana.
The camp is in South Africa next to the Limpopo River and a convenient meeting point as it's only a short distance to the Groblesburg / Martin's Drift border to Botswana.
From Moriti we drove north through Botswana stopping at Elephant Sands campsite for a night where we saw elephants at the waterhole and wandering through the campsite. In the bar area there was a hand-reared banded mongoose which spent ages playing with a puppy.
As you drive further north we always keep an eye out for animals alongside or crossing the road.
Around Pandamatenga you drive through a large fenced off area of agricultural land which has been selected for growing arable crops because of a relatively high rainfall and fertile soil.
