For a true African adventure, the African Safari of Jao in Botswana is the vacation to book. Jao is known for its high concentration of Lion. It can offer both land and water activities on the river Okavango. This area is known for its predators and, Jao Camp itself, is located on the border of the Moremi Game Reserve.
The camp is on a densely wooded oval shaped island that overlooks the vast flood plains of Botswana. It has incredible habitats and permanent waterways and lagoons. An African safari in Jao is a very memorable safari. The skilled staff at Jao Camp will see to it that all of your needs are met, African style.
The Jao African safari wildlife experience is pure African wildlife at its finest. Chances are good that every wild animal that you want to experience will appear. A Jao African safari experience is the safari of a lifetime.
The Accommodations
Your Jao African safari accommodations will consist of African style luxury rooms. The bedrooms are raised wooden decks above palm carpets, constructed of split bamboo and thatch with canvas walls. Each room also has a “sala” for midday siestas with a superb view. Each camp can sleep a maximum of 16 people. Each suite includes a flush toilet and basin, shower and an outdoor shower. Underneath a tree canopy of cool thatch you will find the main dining room and pub area. There is a pool and an outdoor boma for dining under the stars. A raised walkway connects the rooms to the dining rooms and lounge areas.
Game Viewing
Your Jao African safari experience offers excellent game drives, mokoro excursions, short guided walks and boating trips. Since Jao Camp is next to the Moremi Game Reserve, night drives are permitted. This allows your African safari Jao trip to include an exclusive view of the nocturnally active animals in the area.
Your Jao African safari will most probably include views of Lion and Leopard in their natural habitats. Tsessebe, Lechwe and Wildebeest roam all over the flood plains. The wildlife appearances in Jao depend mainly on the water levels in the area. But, generally, a diverse group of wild animals will be plentiful on your safari.
The lagoons are the home to the Hippo and Crocodile. The permanent water areas attract large numbers of these two animals. But the King of the Jungle, the Lion, will be a sure thing. The Jao African safari is known for its abundance of Lion sightings. Have your camera in hand and don’t miss this one of a kind jungle experience.

I Would Like to Present to You the Ontario Walleye - Ontario Walleye Fishing- Maybe Your Next Adventure
Ontario Walleye Fishing is not only exhilarating and pleasurable but also some of the best in the world. Meet the Walleye and learn their habits and other facts that will enable you to plan a successful Ontario Walleye Fishing adventure!
A fish most beloved by Canadian anglers is the Walleye. And Ontario Walleye Fishing is some of the greatest in the world. The reasons behind why Walleyes are so admired is very fascinating and can also aid you in planning a winning Canadian Walleye fishing quest.
They get their nickname from their bizarre and uncommon eyes. The eyes of Walleyes have a distinctive covering that most fish lack. This covering is light sensitive, gathering even limited light in poor conditions. Because of this skill Walleyes have a clear advantage over their prey. They like to prowl for their next meal in low light conditions such as dusk or sunrise to make the most of this advantage. Knowing this, knowledgeable fishermen will toss lures and crank baits in the early hours and at the end of the day, as the sun in not on the water.
An additional trait of the Walleye is that they contain nerve endings along the sides of their body. Sensors that can feel the smallest of vibrations, the flip of a fin or a thumping heart. Again they employ this talent to their advantage, they don't have to "set eyes on" their prey to identify their position. This is particularly a leg up close to shoreline in the weeds or where mucky banks cause the water to have inadequate visibility. Walleye will affix to these locations all through the day and will feed on any unwary victim that swims by. Bait anglers will seek these conditions during daytime hours for greatest outcome.
Don't overlook their teeth! These will not let go prey when they latch on and of course this is not where you would want any of your fingers. Many an angler has landed a second larger Walleye latched on to a smaller fish they were unwilling to let go of! Walleye are strong and powerful and because of this they are great fighters. This makes for some exhilarating fishing for anglers of all ages. Their antagonistic actions makes for some volatile strikes that will catch you by surprise no matter how many times you go through it.
Ontario Walleye fishing is quite productive with dozens of fish caught by an angler each day. They can develop to as much as 20 pounds and be an average of 2 to 5 pounds. I saved the best for last... Walleyes are great tasting! Although Canadian anglers have a lot of species available the Walleye is a favorite meal. Practicing catch a release most of the time is a great idea for preserving the future of Ontario Walleye Fishing alive but don't forget to save a couple for the skillet.
If you don't have any Walleye in your neighborhood you might want to plan your next fishing expedition to include a location where they thrive. Happy Fishing!

Driving in Canada
Levi Quinn
Driving in Canada has changed in recent years. Changes to the way border crossing is done has been recently undertaken in order to increase and enhance security. You need to know about driving in Canada before you set off. Ignorance could get you sent right back home if you fail to gather all necessary information first. If you are not familiar with the laws and border crossing regulations, there are many sites that supply this information for free. Be sure to look them up.
You must bring your photo identification with you to Canada as well as your driver’s license and your passport. Recent changes require everyone to bring a passport when crossing the border from either side. This allows officials to verify that you are who you claim to be and that you are not a breach to security. Make sure that your driver’s license and all other I.D. is up to date. Any expired information will need to be renewed before you can enter Canada. Check that it will not be expiring while you are there either.
Everyone that is travelling with you inside the car will need to provide the same information. Border control has to verify every person that wishes to cross the border, not just the driver. Even children will be required to show a passport so get this type of information gathered before your planned trip. It can take time to get a passport if you do not have one so factor the timing for that in as well if necessary.
The rules regarding what you can and cannot bring into Canada tend to change so make sure you are up to date on the latest. This information will be listed online so check it out and make notes of anything important. It would be unfortunate to pack things you can’t take and then have to dispose of them at the border.
You will always be asked for the legal information for your vehicle. Have everything on hand to show border patrol. They are always on alert, watching for stolen vehicles which many criminals attempt to bring over the border to flee authorities. Have your information up to date so that you can get through that much faster. When you are organized and ready to show information, the process will go much faster and smoother.
If you buy anything while you are in Canada make sure that you keep all of the receipts. The border guards may ask to see them when you pass through on your way home. It’s just another way of making paperwork help you get through the line that much quicker. You can also look up border wait times online to get an idea which crossing will be the quickest. Some are longer than others so consider that.
Keep in mind when driving in Canada that some of the traffic rules may vary. The speed limit is posted in kilometres rather than in miles so remember that too or you may find yourself with some speeding tickets. Driving in Canada can be beautiful and exciting if you take care to arrange it accordingly.
