Day 64: Etosha – Swakopmund

What a brilliant start to the day. A superb breakfast overlooking the watering hole, checking out a couple of zebra and wilder beast. Loading up Kirsty, we say our goodbyes to the other bikers, and then hit the road. We have a small group of animals seeing us off, two diuke and two warthogs running along next to us. Yee haw!
After about an hours riding, the other bikers pass us, friendly waves are exchanged. They’re turning left, we’re turning right. Swakopmund is about 350 miles away, which would probably be too far for us, but the roads are good, and we actually make it about 45 mins before sunset. As we’ve got closer to the town, we also get closer to the coast, where it’s much colder. It’s cold enough for the heated grips to come on, but as we should only have about 15 miles to cover, not worth stopping for an extra layer. Into town, there’s not much to report, other than I have springbok for dinner, yummy!!
