Male Hill, the highest of the four hills
....shocker, it's really not very high (about 1,500 m and the rest of Bots is around 1,000m). But, it was still a great way to get out and do some hiking, which is not easy to come by! Botswana is incredibly flat and lacking stairs, so an incline of any sort made for an excellent hike. Plus, the hills come out of nowhere so it's pretty crazy how flat the land is for the full 360 degrees surrounding the peak. But man oh man do I miss a good Sunday hike!

Tsodillo is also pretty awesome because it has over 4,500 rock paintings, some around 2000 years old. They were painted by the San people of the Kalahari Desert, and depict giraffes to drying hides to whales- very interesting for an area in the middle of southern Africa.
