A relaxing day!

We slept a bit better. Both of us were on sleeping mats, so it was easier. I was up very early seeing as we weren’t having breakfast until 8am, but I still wasn’t earlier enough to have first shower! I had to wait half an hour for one to be free! At breakfast, we wished Mona a happy 41st birthday with a rendition of Stevie Wonder’s song, a card, a cardboard crown, and a pink plastic goblet for her wine! 😂

We were on the truck by 9am and heading back across the border to our campsite near Bagani for our last night in Namibia. The border crossing was straightforward, although we did have to have an extra health check and photo as we were entering Namibia from Botswana.

Back at Rainbow River Lodge, we got our tent up quickly – on the same spot as the other night. Everybody else did the same. We are definitely creatures of habit! 😊 Henry prepared pasta and salads for lunch. My group was on cook duty, but I was relegated as my services were not required! After lunch, we went to the bar area with the intention of using the internet, but it wasn’t working. Instead, we ended up spending the afternoon chatting to our fellow travellers, including Mona, who started drinking early to celebrate her birthday. I had a few gin and bitter lemons as the sun went down, the first drinks I’ve had in since the wine tasting on day one of this trip.

For dinner, Henry had prepared T-bone steak no less!! We followed this with birthday cake. Afterwards, we did go back to the bar, but we didn’t stay very long as we were tired and we have an early start tomorrow.もっと詳しく
