Up early and took another trip into the conservation area. Spent two hours looking for desert elephants, saw some Kudu, but not an elephant in sight. Back to camp for breakfast and pack up for our short journey to Khowarib Lodge where we are staying for two nights. En route we saw about 12 giraffe and lots of springbok. Lodge at Khowarib lovely, very rustic but beautifully done. The camp is by the river, with water, a first in Namibia. We drove on to Sesfontein, which was very basic. A round trip if 60km for fuel, but the tank had a sign on it….. no diesel! We ventured into a couple of shops, very basic, few tins, salt, mealie, pasta, rice and loads of soap! Took a short trip up the road to Purros, to see what it was like, then a km into the Hoanib River bed! This is a difficult ride on sand. We think we may try it tomorrow, tyres let down. We’ll have a go, but turn around if it gets difficult. Bit daring to go alone. Marianne and Lod where are you? Ate in tonight, but had sundowners at the lodge
