We were supposed to leave at 8am this morning, we ended up leaving half an hour late for our drive to Sesriem. It was a long bumpy road and everyone was looking rough by about 12pm when we crossed the Tropic of Capricorn, me for the second time. We went through the town of Solitaire, which I remember thinking was the smallest town I'd ever been to two years ago. We arrived at our campsite in Sesriem at about 4pm, again the same camp as two years ago….Scorp...

After nearly two months of really early mornings, cooking over coals or a camp fire, sleeping in tents, packing and unpacking the truck, I had the mother of all sleep ins, got up at 10am that's pretty late for me. I headed out and went straight to KFC for an early lunch, it was awesome, you really do miss the little things in life when you're away. I did what I had to do while I was out and then came back to the room for the rest of the morning to catch up on...

We left our beach camp this morning at about 9am, some people decided to go in for a morning dip in the Atlantic, I wasn't one of them this time.

We packed up the truck and headed to Cape Cross to visit the seal colony, it was birthing season, so just about every female seal had a newly born pup with her. Many of them were dead as a result of abandonment, being tramp...

Awoke this morning as usual ten minutes before my alarm, at around 6:15am and it was a bit chilly out. I got up, dressed and went to brush my teeth, I love how everyone else but me does this in the bathroom and I do it behind the truck with a bottle of water. Old habits die hard. Today was supposed to be monster day on the truck, I didn't actually think it was that bad. We first headed up the road to visit the Humba tribe, these are the women who coat thems...

Another early start today as we surveyed the damage done by last night's wind. The funniest incident was that people who were in tents by themselves had been blown all over the place. Cat's description of being trapped in here overturned tent was the funniest, Cyn helped her to right her tent when she got up to go to the bathroom. We were on and off the truck quite a bit today, we stopped for shopping in a place called Outjo (where I managed to get an amazin...
