Return Trip to Namibia

 The return trip to Namibia from Maheking was much shorter (17 hours rather than 27) - no warthog accident and no time spent sleeping at the border.  Here I am at the border post as we enter Botswana to drive across.  Think my legs need to see some light.

 We all bought food and candy to share.  I found these helped the journey go a little smoother for all of us and you can't beat the sentiment.

Now comes the wildlife photography challenge in a moving combi- oops too early to catch the donkey.

Too zoomed and to early to get the whole horse.

Too slow to get the kudu but if you look close you can see her in the bush.

We saw whole herds? flocks of ostrich.  There was one group that had a beautiful male, two pretty females and three children of various sizes. The littlest was really tiny.

This picture is pretty for the color contrasts.

We arrived at Windhoek late- and were welcomed by what the others referred to as Windhoek fireworks.  I wondered what that was until the lightning storm was all around us!  It rained horizontal and for a while it reminded me of the wild storms I saw in Johannesburg.
