3800km, camper f#*ked, passengers alive

Today, we left Grootberg for the final 550km back to Windhoek. We thought we would have 225km of bad roads, but it turned out to be only 70km of crap. The relief of driving tarmac roads, after the endless shaking, is the closest thing to an orgasm, without the sex bit. Wow! smooth roads, wooahh 😀.

Our grand total km is 3800. The campervan is not happy about the trip. List of injuries;

2 flat tyres
One cupboard door fell off (6 screws)
One microwave oven fixing is broken in multiple places
One door handle fell off
Camper electrics system, broken down 2x
One cupboard lock broken
Dirt and grime everywhere
Etc

The cleaning we delegate to Windhoek Central Car wash, where 6 or more guys do a passable job in 30 minutes.

The repairs we do ourselves. I teach Cedric and Audwyn how to use an old yoghurt pot to fix doors and handles. We brainstorm on how to fix the door handle . More yoghurt pots, of course, and it works.

We planned the last night to go out for dinner, but Oscar is sick, so we eat in the hotel 's restaurant. A good hotel , I must say, and the chef does do a decent breakfast. However, his main meals remind me of the government canteen in the DDR, namely awful, really awful. Nevertheless, we are all happy, and after exchanging stories , we slope off to bed. Luxury, real beds!Read more
