So, we are alive...

Finding cheap Internet is a little difficult so we are trying to update as often as possible.

Day Four: Etosha
So after a late start we finally got to Etosha park. And after seeing mainly springbok a whole we were treated to a couple of lions napping next to lunch. Venturing further we got to the reception and paid, bought an ice cream and took a breather with the Herbiefours.

An amazing rest of the day in Etosha and a mad dash to get to the gate in time made us miss the salt plains but the giraffes mad up for it. Trying to find an open campsite lead us to a place that looked like it had zombies but turned out to be a wonderful place full of other put footers and some very helpful staff.

Day Five: Ngepi

French toast for breakfast and a visit to a meteorite that is the biggest one that as landed. Ever. Met up with the Herbifours again and then headed to Grootfontein for lunch. Turns out they has siestas there so we ended up in another town eating tuna crackers and beans outside a Spar.

Headed to the most awesome campsite ever called Ngepi. The Volvo which we have yet to name surprised us with making the road thanks to Robyn's fantastic driving. Enjoyed a tequila under the stars with the Herbiefours just outside the Caprivi strip and a get together of put footers at the campsite bar. A night of wondering whether that sound was a hippo or not gave us some entertainment.

Day Six: Katima

A morning yoga session on the banks of the Okavango revived us and then we made us of the cages pool in the Okavango river. Amazing to swim with hippos in sight.
Leaving Ngepi we had our first car issue which we dealt with in true Hooligan style. We waited for someone else who knew what they were doing. A quick stop in Divundu to see a mechanic and we were on our way.
Deciding we wouldn't make the border in time we stayed in the Caprivi Strip again at a campsite on the side of the Zambezi river.

Day Seven: Livingstone Checkpoint 3

A very early start to get to the border were all hell ensued with us paying in three different currencies and a lot of running back and forth. A very bad road and some excellent driving from Sarah got us to Livingstone tired but happy. A quick set up at the campsite and booking a sunset cruise we took off to the Victoria Falls.
Some very wet Hooligans left in a rush to make the ferry. Changing in the parking lot we ran to catch the ferry with some wet undies. Victoria Falls was amazing and very wet. But all cameras and phones survived.

The sunset cruise blew our minds with amazing animals, dinner and snacks.
Joining everyone at the bar two of the Hooligan decided to make it an early one and the other two managed to get to bed in the early hours.

Day Eight

A late sleep and off to the first shoe drop which was an amazing experience. Put Foot has outdone themselves which providing 405 pairs of school shoes to needy kids as well as painting and redoing the floors of the school.
An amazing day for everyone involved and it was great to see where our money and effort is really going.
We leave you tonight on the banks of the Zambezi looking forward to tonight's checkpoint party.
Peace.
