Time for a photo update as life has been keeping us busy. Attached are some awsome photo's from a trip we did to Namibia and the Kgalagadi Transfrontier park which covers Namibia, South Africa and Botswana. Being in the Khalahari KTP is dry, technically its arid savannah with a lot of seasonal grasses. You'd expect a desert to be hot but as we were towards the end of winter (July time) the nights were bitterly cold - cue ice on the inside of the tent and a very cold wind until about 11am. Luckily Sandra had a hotwater bottle (unluckily it burst soaking her sleeping bag) - cue a very cold night in the rooftop tent!
The wildlife (in particular the birdlife) is awsome we saw loads if interesting stuff like Pygmy Falcons (roughly the size of a large sparrow) and a white faced Scops Owl, alongside a great caracal sighting and some magnificent black maned lions. Enjoy the photo's.....
