Maun: Preparing for Okavango
We are currently in Maun, Botswana, jumping-off point for the Okavango Delta. Due to sold-out flights and limited travel options, we had to get to Maun a few days early. Basically, the town seems to be one big safari office, as most people who come here do so to head into the Okavango Delta. And while it’s not the most scenic or lively destination we’ve seen, our hotel has a swimming pool, bar, air-conditioned rooms and TV. So we plan to catch up on our sleep, take care of any last-minute Internet business (in preparation for Tanzania) and generally relax.
