The following morning we got an early start, as it was a long drive all the way to the Namibian side of the border, i.e Noordoewer - Amanzi Trails (Campsite). We stopped by Helmeringhausen for their legendary toasted ham, cheese and tomato sandwich on their farm bread, yummy! :) We then continued the drive and stopped for a bathroom break by one of the smallest towns in Namibia, Seeheim. It only has a hotel and train station. The strangest thing I had seen that day was a very tame Gemsbuck who was surrounded by chickens, sealed off by a chicken mesh fence. It was just laying there very happy with all his friends surrounding him, too cute. :)

We continued on the long road and took a detour to the Fish River Canyon. It was breathtaking. We read about the 5 day hike that you can do with a tour guide, which we all seemed very keen to do one day... :) We took some pics and headed back to the main road...

We arrived at the Amanzi Trails campsite just as the sun was setting. The campsite is located right on the Orange river, and our site was almost in the Orange river, absolutely stunning! :) We set up camp and started the fire for our dinner... A long day on the road with a well deserved meal and sleep...
