Where is Gaborone?
Gaborone is located in the southeastern corner of Botswana on the Notwane River, a mere 15 kilometers from the South African border. Pronounced “Ha-bor-ron-e” or “Gabs” it is the capitol city. It combines feelings of both rural Africa with thatched or tin roofed houses in some sections with a more western architecture. There are now several “modern” malls on the outskirts of town. We work at Princess Marina Hospital, which opened in 1966 at the time of independence. It is in the center of Gabs.
