Due to the amazingly remote and peacful (except for the elephants and hippos) location where Varun, James and Tim are currently filming - they have no internet!!
Oh no!
Oh dear!
It's a disaster!
Well actually it is probably quite good for them to go back to communication basics for 48 hours or so. They are certainly not totally removed from the luxuries of life with all that their Camp has to offer, and they are loaded down with technology in the filming kit sense - cameras, lights, tracks, memory cards, tapes etc.
Varun has called into the office today and reports that he has been catching fish, learning how to light a fire (the old fashioned non-firelighter way), and paddled a Mekoro (canoe).
I LOVE meerkats - I suspect it's all a bit too wet and watery in the the part of the Delta where the guys are filming today - but I am hoping somewhere along the way on this Botswana safari trip they have got some footage of these cute little creatures!
