Day Three...

First things first, we were pleasantly surprised by gaining an hour which made us early for once. After leaving The Cardboard Box we four intrepid adventurers delved deep into the jungle that is Windhoek. We were looking for a new tent due to one being too small for the mattress. Imagine our surprise when we found one cheaper than in RSA. We were winning!

After smashing a burger for brunch we put our new tent and our old one on the roof rack. We were unreasonably proud of this. Taking a lazy drive towards Etosha we were pleasantly surprised when we found a shop were Fish (from the Silly Buggers) was bought apparently.

The short drive was entertained by mocking Sarah. Delicious! And stopping on the side of the road to have a pow wow with some other teams before the checkpoint.

Arriving at the campsite we were treated to a actual proper bathroom where fully intend to take advantage later. Tents up and our mattress fits! Too much of yayness on that one I can tell you.

Checkpoint one treated us to a bang up meal which was interrupted by the surprise arrival of The Silly Buggers and Pistons of Fury. Much relief for the boys arriving last night. Well done!

Much dancing, drinking and merriment ensued until the early hours and a freezing night in our tents ensues after.

Waking up to everyone packing up and heading to Etosha we are close to being on our way again.

So with Robyn currently still in the lead in the windmill game with Debbie a close second with 15 and 12 sightings a piece. Sarah and Karselle are on 9 and 5 respectively.

Looking forward to seeing some animals today we leave Toshari Lodge to the sweet sounds of Culture Club.
Peace.
