Left for our one night stop at Nxai Pan after filling tanks with water. Very, very hot and we are drinking water by the gallon. Gate to Pan about 60 kilometres on tar. Arrived at gate and deflated tyres for the soft sand. Hour and a half slow drive in soft deep sand to South Camp. Had a late lunch and set off for an evening drive around the pans only one of which had water but did attract some game. Elephant, giraffe, springbok, and as luck would have it two beautiful male lions. Beautiful site. We all woken in the middle of the night by a very loud elephant roar right next to our camp but couldn’t actually see it. Various other game noises during the night. Good ablution block.
