A few photos
They mine salt there as well
Fill my screen with blue, and just a few dunes in the background, – longing for Namibia.
Little Somiso is a Rhino calf who lives in Swaziland. His mom didn’t have any milk for him because of the drought.
He is a month old and growing quite big already.
Fortunately he found people to take care of him.
During the day he has two mom’s taking care of him and seeing that he gets to all the mud pools.
Late afternoon, he comes home to be washed down and fed before coming inside for the night.
At the moment he sleeps with me (or I with him 🙂 ) from 9 to 3. Well I watch movies till 12 and then we try to sleep after the midnight feeding.
Internet is not great here, this is the first chance I get to post something about him.
He is snoring away here beside me..

You can camp on the banks of the river and listen to the hippos splashing in the water a few meters from your pillow..
Very little on earth beats sitting next to your fire in the quiet of the African night..
Late afternoon on the way to Citrusdal from the Stadsaal caves,
If you turn off towards from Serowe and take that road to Maun you pass Mopipi. There is a filling station and this view on Lake Xau.
