11/20/17 - On 11/1, up at 6 30 am, breakfast at 7 00 am and 7 30 am, left for our morning game drive which also included a dugout canoe ride on a channel in the delta.  We saw lots of various cranes and birds on this drive because of the water in channel.  We stopped off for a bathroom break, coffee, tea and cookies.  Next was the canoe ride up the channel which had to be cleared from hippopotamuses before we could take off.  Back to the camp for lunch and then we had some time to relax, then we had a talk on the Okavango Delta, coffee, tea and snack before we left at 4 30 pm for a game drive.  There were always two jeeps and we always went different routes to look for animals.  Our drive was uneventful until the guide got a radio notification that in another place of the park, a male lion and his brothers were found.  We had over a half an hour to get to that side of the park and the guide drove like a maniac to try and get us there before dark so we could see them as well.  We bounced up and down like crazy and had to drive through a fairly deep pond but we got there just as it was getting dark. We could see all three of them but was very hard to take pictures because of the darkness.  The huge male lion did get up and walked away until we could not see him any more.  The group was so excited.  We got back to the camp and had dinner set up around an open fire.  After dinner, the staff did some singing and dancing around the fire and we as a group responded back with our own song. We learned there were cape buffalo around the cabin but was OK with our nightly escort to the tented cabin.
