Listen "Field Recording: Not Enough Water, So We Harness Up And Pull The Mekoros"
Episode Synopsis
August 20 2015, 11:59 AM. Madinari island, Okavango Delta.
This expedition was often a very trying experience. A mokoro is not so nice when loaded with batteries and lenses and there is no water to float it in. We have harnesses and literally pull it like oxen across the floodplains in search of a channel. Suckage. Though a certain kind of bonding experience as well.
