Day 14: Spitzkoppe and back to camping

We sadly left the comfort of our warm beds and 4 walls and got back on the truck. First stop was a supermarket where I managed to pick up a caffitiere. Thank god. Proper coffee every morning from now on. 

We then headed in land to a mountain range called spitzkoppe. 


We set up for lunch then had a few hours to explore the mountains ( and for me and Stevie to do some bouldering ).








It was pretty spectacular.

We got back to base and stevie decided to take a quad bike for a spin... driving like a grandad... you should see the video... it was more like someone driving a mobility scooter...


We then headed to camp for the night in brandburg, on the way back a huge number of springbok ran across the road in front of us. Amazing.  We arrived at our lovely camp site with a huge pool ( sadly I was on food prep so couldn't go in).

There was also a bar at the camp site which served a mean g + t. 

We stayed up a little later tonight till half 10, chatting round the campfire. Me and 3 of the Aussie girls are planning a trip together to Sri Lanka next year! On route to Stevie's bday trip to New Zealand.

  1. I guess Stephen hasn't had much practice in driving a mobility scooter! Love the photo of you on the rocks. Real coffee and more g and t--- you know how to live! I thought this was supposed to be back to basics. Scenery looks amazing again. Must have been great to see the springbok. Lotsa love xx
