Okavango Delta
Botswana
The mokoro glides silently through papyrus reeds and a hippo exhales somewhere close, invisible. The Okavango is a river that never reaches the sea: it flows inland from Angola and fans out across the Kalahari desert into a labyrinth of channels, lagoons, and palm islands that exists only because the water gets lost. Elephants wade chest-deep through lily pads. At night the sky is absolute.
