Blog posts will be intermittent for a while as internet/WiFi not available in the middle of nowhere!!
Another longish day driving to reach the Kgalagadi National Park. It is a long drive for most people as they probably live in Jo’burg or Cape Town and it is 1000 km. Arrived about 5 pm, we probably took the wrong route from Kuruman, it was the least mileage but the last 150 km was on gravel Ugh ! We stayed at a camp called Two Rivers which is on the Botswana side. The whole Park borders Botswana. Only 4 camp spots at this site and we were one of two campers so nice and quiet. No light pollution and lots of night sounds. Steak on the barbie with a little veg plus the obvious bottle of red

Woke at dawn about 5.30. Quite cool at this time. Had to do some immigration formalities (complicated) On the road at 9.00 am for drive to Nossob Camp about 140 km. Lots of small water holes on the way for game viewing. Saw Springbok, Wilderbeast, Gemsbok, Lioness with three cubs and a Honey Badger to name a few. There are no Elephant in this Park. Arrived Nossob Camp at 5.30. Fenced Camp so secure from wildlife. Nice camp site with our own ablution and kitchen/wash up area plus electric hook up. Not that « wild ».
Salmon and veg for supper.
