Day 10: Namib Naukluft to Mariental

beautiful wide landscape in Namibia!

Ignition problems in the middle of nowhere - and ther is no BMW Service-Center with a Diagnose-Computer around! So just the Tourguide´s brain combined with a screwdriver has to be sufficiant to solve the problem

Feedinf

Feeding of the hungry "Kittycats" in the Quivertree Forest Camp!

The famous Quivertrees in the sunset

Oh yes - The bikes (and the tourguides) have a hard life in Africa .....

Day 9:  "Restday" Namib Naukluft Park

("Restday" is a bit misleading for today.... ):

wakeup-call 5:00 am!! for a desert safari to the Sossusvlei Sanddunes and the Sesriem Canyon - but it´s worth to get up so early!)

-

Rita climbing up "Dune 45"!

And Klaus on his way down

cute little vlsitor during our lunch-picnic: a Chakal!! Fearless or just very hungry? Beautiful surprise for us anyway!

famous  Deadvlei - "Death Valley" - Denise hanging (very alive) on a tree that died ca 600  years ago - amazing!

Though not petrified, the wood does not decompose because the area is so dry!

is this a Talban disguised as a namibian bankrobber hiding in the Sesriem Canyon??

Day 5: Scenic Flight over the Okovango Delta

- there are all the Elefants hiding!! We can understand them - better take a dip in the River to escape the heat (37 degrees C)  than being watched by the Safari Tourists in the dusty bushlands.....

.

beautiful!

While most of us enjoy the flight 4 people are "trying" to repair Urlich`s Flat....      Yes - this is Africa: efficiency can still be improved a lot all over!
