Had a great holiday.

This was a long trip of 2400km
and took us two days to complete
we slept over in Windhoek and
then arrived safely in a small
check point named Kongola and there
Natascha and family waited for us.
This is a picture of the scenery
taken just outside of Otavi on the
way to Grootfontein.

After arriving at Kongolo we went

to Susuwe Lodge over the Kwando

river by boat and then to the lodge.

It looks much nicer than on the

pictures. Had some tea and then went

to Natascha's house. And here is

Hubby standing on the deck outside

with the Boabab tree that shades

the house.

This is what the Boabab tree

seed pods look like and when they

fall it does make a hole in the deck.

They are massive and heavy, but sadly

not even the elephants eat it.

Here is Matthew feeding the birds

and squirrels which live in the trees.

This is a genet that lives in the trees

and comes down at night and nudges against

the window pane of the door for food.

To be continued.
