13 Sep 2010. Jeff writes about his trip from Cape Town to Maun, to see the Okavango Delta - he described the trip as the most rugged he's done: "The makoro guides who were to push us through the Delta for the next two days, called pullers, barely spoke any English, and most of them were really stoned - you could smell the weed through the bushes and watch them come out from behind them giggling. What else would you expect them to do when they're floating down the river and pushing around loud Americans all day? "
