After a rather bumpy bush plane ride, we headed to Elephant Valley Lodge. Now we have departed from the private reserves of the Kadizora Safari Camp in the Okavango Delta to our game rides in the Chobe National Park. The experience provides a contrast in African bush safaris. Chobe did not disappoint us.

Our final game ride provided a lioness with four cubs, a leopard after a kill, the rarity of a sighting of the male lion plus a dramatic lion chase right in front of our jeep!!! Plus more elephant herds than one could EVER imagine.

Here are a few of those moments and a spectacular, yet serene ride, on the Chobe River.

Two dollar bills for our new friends…
