Nature and Wildlife of Botswana
Albeit unrelated to Mogwana, I can't resist sharing some wonderful snapshots taken by my Japanese friend, Yasuhiro TOMINAGA who served as a volunteer eletrical engineer from Japan Overseas Cooperation Volunteers (JOCV) which is a unit of Japan International Cooperation Agency (JICA), and Huileng GOH a volunteer from Singapore International Foundation. The photos are marked with [TY] and [HL] respectively to indicate the photographer. I figured it's all part of showing you Botswana, its people and culture. If you are interested in making a trip, you can find a little official tourism publication online on the Government website.
I enjoyed reading Arold's tale of his 1997 adventure in Africa on a motorbike over a period of one and a half year. Perhaps you would too.

The famous Baobab tree, which is known as 'Mowana' in Setswana. The one on the left was taken from a distance of about 80m. The other is a close-up to give you an idea how big the tree can grow. Unfortunately, the tree trunk is a favourite food source of the elephants. |
[HL] | The parents of the children and some elders in the settlement performed Tsutsube dance at night by the bonfire. |
