Getting around

This is more a travelling and planing blog so if you are looking for my daily life, you’ll have to look somewhere else :)

In to the dessert

  
The way from the mountains down to the coast has a lot to offer in aspects of scenery. It begins with mountains, dry river beds, some green trees and a lot of wild life. You can see springbok all the time and sometime zebra and giraffes. Birdlife is fantastic, we saw for instance the Secretary bird and an eagle.  
At the end we reached the Namib Dessert. All vegetation ended but there was still some wildlife. Ostriches and Springbok ran on the sand.

  
 
The last part down to the coast was juat a wide straight road with hardly any traffic. 

 We are driving with tents on the roof and the sing a nice single tune all the time. After a while you don’t here it anymore. But when you stop you appreciate the silence. It’s amazing how fast you can go on the gravel roads. Sometimes we cross a dry river bed and need to slow down a little. But otherwise we go somewhere between 90 and 130 km/h.
