Early departure, 6 in the morning and already lots of interesting things.
The crossing of the border was not the funniest. We were " measured", nothing that we have prepared is correct and I even filled my entry with pencil

.... Finally we enter Namibia.
We meet the first Hartmann's mountain Zebras

We cut on a gravel road, great detour to go to Fish River Canyon. Beautiful big circus. We dominate the whole valley from the promontory.
Made coffee with a few rusks, the crumbs are the treat of the birds of the corner, a Mountain Wheatear, a first for me and a Red-winged Starling.

stunning flower

sand road

Fish River Canyon, very impressive

Those zebras look like donkeys!
That flower is a pest I think? Olieboom?
Ja, great roads those!
