12 June Sunday leaving Dar es Salaam

12 June, Sunday - leaving Dar es Salaam

We take pictures with our friends after we’ve packed and strapped
and say goodbye again. We are not sure whether we will meet one another again on
the road, but we will hopefully see them when they come to Swakopmund.

We have also decided not to go down the coast any further, but
head inland again to the Malawi border. It is a road we’ve been on –through the
Baobab valley, and we sleep in the Baobab Valley camp again which we enjoy as
much as the first time. I use the little charcoal stove that the Brits gave me
for the first time and make a wonderful
potjie.

"There is something about safari life that makes you forget all your sorrows and feel as if you had drunk half a bottle of champagne - bubbling over with heartfelt gratitude for being alive. One only feels really free when one can go in whatever direction one pleases over the plains, to get to the river at sundown and pitch one's camp, with the knowledge that one can fall asleep
beneath other trees, with another view before one, the next night." -
Karen Blixen - Out of Africa, Kenya

'Of course as I am reading this, I know that you DO get your visas and the container DOES get released, but oh the internal struggle we face even though we should trust (as Hugo does) that God has His hands on all things and is constantly taking care of us.'

From a Friend:
:) Crazy to think that we are ALL made of blood, bone and water yet we speak in so many tongues that getting along together becomes a massive task within itself.
