Duty called and saw us on our way to Maun. With my love for pictures, we had to make a couple of stopovers for pictures.
MAKGADIKGADI SALT PAN
Ahh yes! Whilst on our way we saw the Makgadikgadi Salt Pans.
Known to host The Makgadikgadi Epic where one can indulge in sky diving (something that is in my bucket list) and other adventurous activities, Makgadikgadi Salt Pan is one of the largest salt pans in the world. The pan also hosts the Y-Care Charitable Trust Walks which has made about P3million since its inception in 2004.

If you look closely there is a mini dust storm forming in the back.
BOTETI RIVER
We made a stop over by the Boteti River where we found horses having a drink. Unfortunately we couldn't take a picture with the horses as they ran off, so we just took pictures by the river.
The Boteti flows out of the Thamalakane River swamp at Toteng, then flows northestward past Tlkaseoulo, over Ghautsa Falls, and then flows east past the villages of Makalamabed,[6] Muekekle and Matima, and then at Kwaraga it turns south past the villages of Phukumakaku,Khumaga (Lekono) Sukwane, Rakops (Jakops), and Xhuma (Khomo).[2] It then flows past Lake Xau (or in a very wet year into and out of Lake Xau) and then heads east past the village of Mopipi (Madista) and into the Ntwetwe Pan.

Though we managed to take these pictures, the heat was almost unbearable. Be sure to pack lots of water and sunscreen as the conditions may be harsh if never been subjected to them.
