The next mor­ning I’m pret­ty wha­cked. No. 1: Mir­ko sno­red all night, and sno­red so loud­ly that the­re is cer­tain­ly no ani­mal left within a radi­us of 100 kilo­me­t­res. Bes­i­des, I’m sure someone or some­thing snea­k­ed around our car around 3:00 in the mor­ning. Pro­ba­b­ly the inhabitants

World Cultural Heritage Tsodilo Hills

Today we want to cross the bor­der to Bots­wa­na again and the­re are about 250 kilo­me­t­res to go. The direc­tions are very simp­le. Go straight ahead for 200 km, cross the bor­der and turn right at the next pos­si­bi­li­ty and fol­low the road if available. If you can’t see a road,

Mahango National Park – small but beautiful

Today we want to visit some excur­si­on desti­na­ti­ons in the near sur­roun­dings. But first we head to the super­mar­ket to buy the most important things for our upco­ming cam­ping in the midd­le of nowhe­re. The­re is only one super­mar­ket in the who­le vil­la­ge and it is not even recognizable

300 kilometres through the Caprivi strip

Today we want to tra­vel through the Capri­vi Strip of Nami­bia, or as it is recent­ly cal­led, the Zam­be­zi regi­on, to our camp at Popa Falls. We are espe­ci­al­ly loo­king for­ward to it, becau­se hop­eful­ly we have boo­ked quite luxu­rious tree hou­ses the­re and espe­ci­al­ly Vero­ni­ca is com­ple­te­ly excited.

Sunset on Zambezi River

Spending money made easy

We pack our 7 things and dri­ve on to the Nami­bi­an bor­der. Until then we have about one hour dri­ve and lucki­ly it is only a short distance to dri­ve today.

Short­ly befo­re the bor­der post we have to pass through the exit of the natio­nal park and at such exits we always have

Chobe National Park

The next mor­ning we peel out of bed at half past five and pack our things. Becau­se befo­re we con­ti­nue our jour­ney, we want to do the mor­ning game dri­ve. Over the dark road at the wild cor­ri­dor we dri­ve to Kasa­ne, for­t­u­na­te­ly wit­hout see­ing an ele­phant and park our car

Zimbabwe and Victoria Falls

The next mor­ning we lea­ve ear­ly to Zim­bab­we to see the Vic­to­ria Falls. Our dri­ver intro­du­ces hims­elf as Richard and looks like Rasta­man hims­elf, unfort­u­na­te­ly he wears a knit­ted cap over his huge amount of hair, so that we can’t admi­re Ras­ta­fa­ri in its totality.
