The next day, towards Mata Mata I find 4 Cheetahs in the 14th, on the top road and again I stay for hours to get pictures of their paws.
These are the Musketeers.

four of them

d'Artagnan

Aramis

Porthos

Athos

Again Snake-Eagle, Giraffes 13 and 18, there are more and larger groups, Lions not visible ... big traffic jam... 4 cars trying to watch something
a Slender Mongoose.
The next night Capes Foxes hunt "mosquitoes" in the glow of the lamp

[nan]

Then still towards Mata Mata, the car is thirsty. I find Mousebirds, without having time to photograph, and again Lions at Sitzsas and lot of birds.
The car is full of diesel, I'm going to the shop for some drinks and gently I'm back in the direction of the loops....

Pygmy Falcon

Spotted Thick-knee/Odicnème tachard

AFrican Wild Cat moving

A mousebird

What about a mousedog

[nan]

I will not go further than the second dune ...
the car stops, impossible to start again, it is about 11am, I stay a good hour until someone comes. He tries to start the Hilux ... you never know with a "nana" in charge
We take the essentially (photo devices etc ...), anything that can't stay in a hot car, all windows closed.

Cornelius, the mechanic of Mata Mata comes with me to "my" car, open the hood, pump above the carburetor, and ask me... if I have tools Amazement yes, my Swiss army knife, and he said that the carburetor is "out". Back to Mata Mata, we phone P. (intern.call via Namibia) that will send someone tomorrow to troubleshoot the car.

We intend to remain sleeping Mata Mata, all my things are Urikaruus, I have an idea, ask my neighbor of the unit No. 3 to pick me, when she doing his turn of the afternoon …

I waited for hours at the reception ... thank you to Martina for repatriated me to Urikaruus, in the race to return, we found an AWC and youngster Cape Foxes, we will take only a photo of mum, the small ones are too agile, impossible to photograph, and then the full moon over the dunes ... magnificent !

AWC
