Out of Botswana

After leaving the Tsodilo Hills we rejoined the main road heading north to the Mohemba Border with Namibia. The border posts around tend to be “officicious” affairs and certainly were on the Botswana side. Many people to see, collect a piece of paper and take to next window before eventually getting the passport signed so into the Namibian side. The staff seemed more friendly and willing to laugh plus less “pieces of paper” seem to go around. It took about 45 mins to cross over the border and off we went to Ngepi Camp on the edge of the Kavango River where we have a pool to swim in protected from attacks by the numerous Hippos and Crocodiles.

The camp is great and we have a Tree house for two nights overlooking the river with lots of trees around plus it is not many places where you are requested to undertake the “ablutions” tour. Many of the toilets/washrooms and showers are for campers and other places within the camp. The treehouses all have ensuite facilities but the rest are amazing. All sorts of weird signage, showers in trees and bathrooms done to weird and wonderful themes.

Besides the bathrooms we have the wildlife to look at and we have elephants, hippos, Giraffe plus plenty more around.

Just a short update today as we are of the bar for a pre dinner “snifter” as you do in these parts then dinner in the restaurant. This is probably the end of the internet again for a few days so updating may take a little while.

Please post any comments and take a look at the pictures if we can get them up

Next stop is back to camping in Caprivi nearer to Chobe then we hit Botswana again and the worl famous Chobe and Moremi Game reserves that are famous for Elephant and Lion
