Hi guys. So we left all Bush Camps and entered our first National Park - Etosha. This is the largest Game Park in Namibia and is the size of Switzerland. We were really looking forward to this stop as it was one of the main reasons for booking this tour.Megan has not been too well - mainly sleep deprived I think! You know how she likes her sleep. So on arrival we went on a midday game drive and saw very little - it's the worst time to game drive really as it...

So this place was not called Dune Camp but I really can not remember the name of it :-( We camped up for a Braai - what the Southern Africans call a BBQ in a lovely camp site with a bar, pool and all the trimmings - very happy.

Early night as we had a 4am start which was a climb up one of the largest Dunes in Nami...

Dave also found a huge pink jellyfish washed up on the beach. Swakopmund is the biggest town for miles and altough small was nice to spend a few days aw...

First stop was a place I had never heard of before - Fish River Canyon - apparently its the 2nd largest canyon in the world! after the Grand Canyon - who knew? The landscape of Namibia is mainly savana so far, although we have seen numerous deers species lik...

Hi guys. This will be a very quick update as we are limited on internet and time. We went on a township tour and District 6 tour before we left Cape Town that was extremely interesting - Apartied was still in place while I was last here so its remarkable to see the difference. Shocking but very interesting. I remember s eeing a white toilets only sign when I was last here. We travelled up to Orange River for our first Camp site - Megan has taken to camping ...
