| Alternative Energies Solar power warms up the water and produces electricity for use in the Camp Office. So the sun will give all the power necessary for your camera batteries to ensure best results on special sightings! Mdonya Old River Camp decided to minimize the use of disposable batteries in a country where there are no recycling facilities. Therefore torches, provided in tents, work with rechargeable batteries and kerosene lanterns light up tent bathrooms. The old-fashioned candles are for us a must for a true safari experience; nothing else can reproduce the same warm and rustic atmosphere! |
