Etosha

Desert Rhino camp was a really special place with such warm, fun and friendly staff. I was really quite sad to leave.

 

But.. onwards and north eastwards, first more coccyx damage bumping back to where we left the tank 

 

Then a cold beer before the next 3 1/2 hour drive to Dolomite Camp on the western edge of Etosha National Park. We saw giraffes, zebras, some sort of antelopes, funky birds and a rock that I thought was an elephant - Rusty is not impressed at my guiding skills.

It was an interesting arrival at the lodge perched on a big hill - the luggage van wasn't working, it was pouring with rain, I was wearing flip flops and we had to carry our luggage to our room perched on the edge of the hill - I needed the exercise!

A government owned lodge is a bit different to what we have been used to in Namibia in terms of the service culture, but the view is pretty good.

 

Given the choice of a pork chop or grilled oryx, I asked what the vegetarian option was...  'vegetables'... how do you do them? 'cooked'.

You can never have too many sunset photos...
