Botswana - going soon

I (Powell Ettinger, the editor) haven't been to Botswana before, but I am heading there in 2 weeks with my family. We are doing a mix of catered camping, and self-drive in and around Moremi & the Okavango, with some time also in Chobe and on the Makgadikgadi Salt Pans.  

We have booked (and paid) with Mask Expeditions for the first 5-6 days in Moremi and with a couple of nights camping in the Okavango. My plan is to post updates via Facebook & Twitter as and when I can get a signal, so hopefully not very often. 

Any tips welcome - Editor@wildlifeextra.com
