Africa 2016-17, the Route we Travelled
This is the actual route we drove during our 2016-2017 Africa trip.
The Final Piece of (South-)Africa
After our intensive adventure in Lesotho we need to relax when traveling, after all, this is our last fortnight.

We have an extensive lunch at […]

Once we saw a flowering baobab in Namibia, which I wrote about then. In Tanzania, in late November, early December, we see the baobabs are greener and are […]
