Sunrise on Kgale Hill

Got up before dawn this morning to catch the sunrise on Kgale Hill. Below are some of the highlight views and beautiful sunrise colours (although the views are much more amazing in person than in photos!):





...and some post climb smoothies and baboons that were hanging out on the side of the road:

Khama Rhino Sanctuary

Last weekend, I took a trip up to the Khama Rhino Sanctuary (about four hours away from Gaborone) and went on my first safari drive. I shared my accommodation (a super cute little house / hut) with a mouse:

 

I didn't manage to get a picture (my camera ran out of battery) but the stars were amazingly bright since it was so far out from a city. On the Sunday morning, I got up before dawn to for rhino tracking. It took about three hours but we found a small rhino family (mother, father and calf).

My best photo of the weekend (taken on the safari drive) - a couple of rhinos hanging out in the sunset:
