Hei! Gottfriedt and I decided to go on an afternoon patrol in the park, to see if all the tourists obey the rules of the park. If a tourist is doing something against the law, Gottfriedt can fine them. We drove to a waterhole where a big elephant and two female giraffes were drinking water. A car with tourists was there too. We looked at the animals for while, I took my pictures and then we drove further to the next waterhole. At the next waterhole there were l...

Hei :) Gottfriedt and I decided to watch a waterhole at sundown. There were tourists sitting there with us. Gottfriedt had brought Savannah dry for us, we filmed with a video camera and took a lot of pictures. In the beginning it was antelopes, jackals, giraffes, zebras and birds.

Hi! At five in the morning the next day, I landed at Hosea Kutako Airport. I was tired after a long trip and little sleep, but I quickly woke up when I got out of the plane and experienced the temperature of 1 ºC. Welcome to Namibian winter, I'll say! Gottfriedt met me at the airport and it was very nice to see him again. We were both excited for our time together and for all that we would experience. We picked up our rental car and were off to Windhoek. The p...
