A Short but Sweet Trip through Malawi

Our campsite at Baine's Baobabs got flooded but thankfully we were still able to make a visit. This cluster of grand baobabs sits in the middle of a salt pan - an incredible sight! #baobabs #botswana #botsadventures #saltpans #africanescapades #africaadventures #adventuresofgandt #instatravel #travelhappy #travelblogger #wanderlust #roadtripafrica #overlandafrica #landrover #landylover #safari

The ablution block at South Camp in Nxai Pan is like a fortress! You definitely don't want to be stumbling around here at night! #elephantguard #botswana #botsadventures #africaadventures #africanescapades #adventuresofgandt #overlandafrica #roadtrip #safarilife #wanderlust #travelhappy #instatravel

Late rains this year washed out the road to Nxai Pan putting us into a detour of deep sand. If we had come through a week earlier like originally planned most of the park would have been impassable. Thankfully it was mostly dried out for our visit! #everythinghappensforareason #nxaipan #botsadventures #botswana #africaadventures #adventuresofgandt #instatravel #roadtripafrica #overlandafrica #defender #landrover #landylover #wanderlust

Well the salt pans were flooded and the meerkats didn't want to come out to play but we got to see the zebra migration across the eastern Makgadikgadi! We stayed at Tree Island at the edge of the salt pans and were the only people for miles watching herds of zebra running wildly #botswana #botsadventures #zebra #travelbotswana #adventuresofgandt #africanescapades #africaadventures #wanderlust #overlandafrica #roadtripafrica

Our first attempt at star trails!

Our plans got a little off-track due to the break-down and we had to split up our nights in the Makgadikgadi. We spent one night in Kumaga then drove out to the CKGR so we wouldn't lose our campsites there. Then we went back to Makgadikgadi to pick up where we left off. Botswana is the only place on our trip that advanced reservations are a must - campsites can fill up a year in advance!

Boomie took a ride across the Boteti River! #botswana #botsadventures #travelbotswana #safarilife #roadtripafrica #overlandafrica #wanderlust #africaadventures #adventuresofgandt #instatravel #instadaily #travelhappy

Had some unfortunate engine trouble that required us to get towed from Gweta to Maun. Thankfully McKenzie 4x4 got us all sorted out and back on the road the next day! All these bumpy roads are really taking a toll on Boomie! #landrover #defender #lifeontheroad #roadtripafrica #overlandafrica #adventuresofgandt #wanderlust #botswana

Boomie had a bit of a close call with this elephant at Elephant Sands Lodge! Luckily the waterhole was more enticing than our pantry. There can be up to 100 elephants that cruise through the grounds of the lodge in one day during the green season, but things were much slower this time of year because there is plenty of food and water everywhere. . . #landrover #defender #landy #landylover #overlanderafrica #drivebotswana #botsadventures #wanderlust #travelblogger #bucketlist #africaadventures #adventuresofgandt #travelhappy #instatravel

We made it back to Botswana!!! I can't believe it's been 10 weeks already, but mainly can't believe we made it back in one piece. Now time to explore the remote corners of our own backyard! #homecoming #botswana #roadtripafrica #overlandafrica #travelbotswana #wanderlust #bucketlist #travelgram #instatravel #travelhappy #landrover #defender #landy #landylover #overlanderafrica #drivebotswana #botsadventures #travelblogger #africaadventures #adventuresofgandt #travelhappy #instatravel

When they say the grass is tall in the green season.....they aren't kidding! . . . #landrover #defender #landy #landylover #overlanderafrica #drivezim #zimadventures #wanderlust #travelblogger #bucketlist #africaadventures #adventuresofgandt #travelhappy #instatravel
