I’ve mentioned that Maun mainly exists to cater to the safari community, and it’s been said that it’s a drinking town with a safari problem. I would have to agree. There are few choices of outings so people tend to frequent their favorite, the bridge backpackers being one of them, great burgers, it is a wonderful mix of locals and tourists mingling together, this is Graham enjoying a beer while a local enjoys the bar. The ex-pat community enjoy a lot of Braai’s (that is what they call BBQs here) a popular choice of Braai is Peri Peri Chicken. Graham has mastered this process and I’ve enjoyed many a peri peri chicken braai, so much so I think it’s all he knows how to cook. The BBQ’s are not traditional (or on the contrary they are way more so then our modern contraptions) and often wood collected from along the river is used to cook. The other night we had a Braai at our friends Crispen and Lisa’s house and the BBQ was made out of an old wheel rim and leaf springs (Uncle Bob and old mechanic boyfriends take note at pic below, too cool). And Van and Justine, who’s house we live at has a BBQ made out of an old gyser.
