Metropolis For Those That Just Don’t Get It
OK so it wasn’t obvious but its not far off. Julie says the top has shrunk in the wash. I think she’s feeding triplets….
Metropolis
Can you guess why the title is the famous Metropolis ??Anyhow some pictures of Fish River and a few other places. Today we camp at Upington and the reasonable price of 60rand pppn. Two other Landies in the camp, both Pumas.…
Grand Canyon
Its not quite the Grand Canyon (but its a good film) although Fish River Canyon is better to look at in my opinion. The river shows its curves more and so it gets a thumbs up. Its typical NWR prices at…
Blue Danube
We took Matilda into the Land Rover place in Namibia. The very same place Mike advised a few weeks ago. The owner, Johan was too busy to do the work but not too busy to take a look (and charge…

Legend
I did forget one. Margaret. I also forgot to say they do remember you in Maun and after a few seconds she dashed off having another ballet class to teach. You know who I mean.So today out of boredom we…
Pay It Forward
We’ve sent a few nights in Windhoek and not gone anywhere so if some other traveller wants to tell me I should have gone “here” or “there”, don’t bother please. Its just another town/city and we’ve walked around a bit and…
Green Mile
So the camp at Mile 4 was cancelled. They lied outright on the phone. It was more expensive and there was a charge for the car. Out of principal we told them to stick it. So we camped on the street…
On Stranger Tides
So after a few days of driving, arguments and lacking campsite choice we have arrived in one tourist mecca in Namibia, Swakopmund. We are currently sat in The Tug which Ian (TrundlingJack) will remember and no doubt tell you its…
Cast Away
This is a tenuous link to a film. Our freind Henning has been in Kenya for a few months having found love. He’s back on he road. So since Tom Hanks’ famous quote from the film shouting “Wilson!” when he…
