Site Report: Nata

We camped overnight at this lodge after our big safari in Chobe and Moremi.

Visits

2002-12-13: We parted ways with the safari company with a final stop at this camp. The highlight here was the nightly feeding of the bush babies. After the food was put out, however, the main participants in the feast were rats. I bought some coals so that we could have a nice fire in our campsite. The charcoal in Africa is not quite as easy as back home, however, and we had to get help to light our fire.
