• Klein Aus Vista Camp

    April 19 in Namibia ⋅ ☀️ 14 °C

    After leaving Keetmanshoop it was another 240km and 2.5 hour drive to our next campsite. There was nothing but totally baron landscape inbetween with huge swathes of long straight roads that were just boring.
    There were fields and fields of tiny yellow flowers and these are called John Deere flowers as they are the same colours as the tractors. They only come into massive blooms after significant rainfall and the last time there was this many was 2011 só we are lucky to see so many.
    We arrived at our campsite at 3pm, checked in and then drove to campsite 7.
    It’s not very private because it is just a vast expanse but they have done their best to screen of views of the neighbours and the South Africans are very polite. Tourists are different though. Most just blank us when we wave, smile or say hello.
    The campsite is beautiful. We are surrounded by rocks and there are trails going off into the hills. After going for a run we watched the rocks turn bright orange at sunset before turning back to a dull stone colour as the golden light disappeared.
