Ein Post auf Englisch

So this one is in English. Just for a change. With a short summary in German at the end.

We've driven through the Caprivi-Zipfel (Namibia) and got sold yet another road permit for yet another country. We camped at a very nice place along the Kwando-river. Before we visited a traditional village, where they put on a bit of a show for us. it was actually quite cute! Especially the party where the medicin man lost his skirt. And had to get one from the singers to complete whatever he was doing.

Then we went back to Botswana and visited Tsodilo Hills. There's tons of rock painting there! Some of them are 3000 years old. It was quite amazing. The setting is fabulous: granite hills in the middle of the bush (which is quite flat). Our guide had learnt all about the paintings from his grandfather. He even showed as the well where there's always water, even now in the dry season. And he did the appropriate ceremony, so that we wopuldn't get bitten by the snake that lives within that well. Now we're in Maun, about to find out how to enter the Okavango Delta. And then we might visit Moremi and maybe Savute. Dietmar is suffering a bir from a condition called "sand phobia" after we got stuck on the way to Lenyanti. So we won't mention the "s-word" anymore. We're just driving on gravle roads.

Fuer Rudi: Die Handy-Nr. aus Suedafrika funktioniert hier nicht. Handy-Empfang ist nur in den groesseren Staedten moeglich (da gibt's nicht so viele von...) und SMS kann man an Dietmars Handy schicken! Wir sind ueber den Caprivi-Zipfel nach Botswana wiedre gereist. Wir haben die Tsodilo-Hills besucht (3000 Jahre alte Felsmalereien) und sind jetzt in Maun auf dem Weg ins Okavango-Delta. Danach dann Moremi und eventuell Savute. Email geht ab und an, halt wenn wir in Staedten sind!

UNs geht's beiden ziemlich gut! Auch wenn wir schon etwas dreckiger sind... hier staubt's halt oefter und der Staub setzt sich fest und das Auto ist auch recht eingestaubt... Innen wie aussen. Also verdreckt man bei jedem Zeltauf- und abbau. UNd zwischendrinne auch. Abre Botswana ist toll!!! und die Leute hier sind zeimlich hilfsbereit!!!
