Explorers Blog Entry 7
I am visiting the Kalahari Desert in Botswana and parts of Namibia for my last location. The capital of the Botswana is Gaborone and the capital of Namibia is Windhoek. Angola, Zambia, Zimbabwe and South Africa border Botswana and Namibia. No body's of water border the Kalahari Desert and the GPS coordinates of the Kalahari Desert are 23˚00'00.00" S 23˚00'00.00" E. The Kalahari has vast areas covered by red sand without any permanent surface water. Temperatures can range from 68˚ to 118˚. There are many game reserves in the Kalahari. Bushman have lived in the Kalahari fir over 20,00 years. The Kalahari Desert is 5377 miles from the Atacama Desert. I got to the Kalahari Desert from the Atacama by boat and then a truck. It cost around 3,000 dollars for everything. It was very fun to go for a trip around the world I have never experienced anything like it before. I learned that it is nice to go on a trip by yourself sometimes instead of with others. My mom and dad are so happy to see me but are also mad that I am back to annoy them.
