Chobe Safari

A few pictures from our amazing safari day at Chobe.





We spent the first half of the day on a relaxing boat ride where we saw piles of hippos, birds, kudu, warthogs, crocs, buffalo, giraffes, impalas ect. The last half of the day we jumped into an open safari vehicle and bounced around the safari. Chobe has the largest population of elephants in all of Africa - 60,000 elephants!! I would say we saw several hundred off in the distance as well as a few dozen up-close and personal. We even had the chance to ride right up to a mother elephant and her baby bathing in the river. It was by far the most wildlife we have seen thus far and overall an amazing day.




This is how close we were to the elephants!
