As good as it gets, an afternoon in Botswana canoeing with National Geographic filmmakers & Explorers in Residence, Dereck and Beverly Joubert, as elephants come to the river to drink. Roger Miller sang, “You Can’t Roller Skate in a Buffalo Herd”, but as I found out can go canoeing in a buffalo herd and an elephant herd to create an unforgettable experience. When the action began I was thinking it doesn’t get any better than this, but it did as more elephants kept showing up. It was the perfect day at Selinda Explorers Camp.
