Okavango Delta whereabouts

I got my assignment for my volunteer gig at Desert and Delta safaris, in case any of you want to book now for your time in the last Eden and wish to have me serve as your hostess. (Check out D&D's Web site to see the scene.) In April I will be in Savute Camp in the Chobe National Park. May, it's Xugana Island Camp. June, it's Camp Okavango and a bit of time at Camp Moremi. The only bad news: I'm expected to teach the staff some French words. Quelle shame. I can't even remember how to spell that! And all of you who gabbed with me on my road trip from California to Austin know that I failed to apply myself to listening to hours of Michel Thomas' French lesson CDs. Good intentions and all that.

My friend, Ted, and his wife, Mary Ann, hosted a Safari Send-Off for me in Austin and treated me to a special mix of African music that already a UB student and a professor want to download.
