Hi Leony,
We've had to get our feet back on the ground at home this weekend, and unfortunately, it was straight back to work on Monday. How we enjoyed the last 4 weeks!
Even though it felt very long at the end (we're not used to being away for so long), we also needed the time to see and discover everything. With a total of 6000km on the clock, that's not surprising. Beautiful wide plains, amazing nature, and of course many beautiful animals.
You've organised it brilliantly! Lots of hidden gems and each overnight stay was a new (positive) surprise. From the lovely small-scale accommodation in Cape Town, modern apartment in Stellenbosch (which was upgraded), the cottages in Springbok, the Roadhouse (I'm mad about old cars), Desert Homestead and Desert Breeze, Vingerklip (where we did wonder what we'd find after a long stretch on gravel) to the really cool ‘houseboat on the water’ in Divundu and of course the Victoria Falls Hotel.
It was quite cold at night in Maun/Okavango but nice to finish off in luxury at Welgevonden.
The rental car was also superb. We had one flat tyre and were able to get it changed in Swakopmund (for free). It was nice to have so much space when you have to pack and unpack frequently.
Driving there was a bit of a struggle at times, having to unpack and pack our suitcases in and out of the car repeatedly, but we knew that would be the case beforehand. We often looked at each other when we walked into places, laughing that we would never have found them ourselves.
Thank you!!
Greetings Gabrielle and Ralf
