6am start again! We left Thato's flat for the bus station. This time we drove and I was delivered successfully to where I needed to be to catch my bus. This journey is to take 5 hours or so. There were a lot of people in the station but thankfully they were not all getting on the same bus. The bus was amazingly comfortable. More spacious than any plane that I have ever travelled on. We left on time and got into Vryburg, the closest town to Tiger Kloof, at about...

Got up and was out of the house by 6am. That must be a first. I caught my plane to Johannesburg which left on time. Windhoek airport is very very small and had very little to do to while away the time. I was also fairly apprihensive about my new travel plans and how I was going to met this unknown character who is supposed to be looking after me. The plane landed and I had very little issues with emigration. I found the train station and aquired my ticket succe...

We drove back to Windhoek. The car was reluctantly unpacked in the heat of the day. I spent most of the rest of the day trying to get myself organised for travelling on to Johannesburg the next day. I received an email that I would not be being picked up by a driver from the school but I would need to get across town and then I would be met by some one (name not stated) and would then be put on the bus the following morning. This was quiet a daunting thought bu...

Drove to Sossusvlei early in the morning. How ever not early enough for it to be cool enought to contemplate walking up a Dune! It was breath takingly beautiful though. On the way back out we went to the Sesrium Canyon. As we were driving we were astonished by how many people there were. On the whole of the trip so far there hadn't been as many people as there were that morning. After leave Sesrium and cheeky dip in the Sesrium campsite pool. Don't tell the owne...

We got up and packed the car up. We were headed for the Desert. On the way we stopped at Walvis bay to see the flamigos. They were great. One was doing a very funny little dance in the shallow waters to find his food. Definately a better dancer than me! We then drove to Agama Lodge which was just before the NamibRand Nature Reserve. The views were spectacular. The lodge was lovely. Very few frills but very well designed and the little details well thought about...
