Namibia. Driving through Tsumeb and Grootfontain we reached the little farm where you can see the largest known meteorite – the Hoba.
It is located some 18 kms off C42 road in the countryside.
They charge 20 NAD entry fee.
Can you imagine the block of metall 3m by 3m by 1 m? It is made by the nature from iron, nickel and cobalt…
Impressive!
back on the main road we drove north on B6 highway. There is veterinary control in the village of Mururani. They don’t harm foreign drivers. But this is also a border of the landscape: you are going now to the Africa of the small villages, mud-made huts and poverty…
In the little, hot town of Rundu we passed through the police post (take care, it is dangerous region!)and we met Kavango river. On the other side of the river is already Angola. Going east to Caprivi Strip it is worth to take not the new, tarred B6 highway but the old , gravel road along Kavango – there is still a real life, real landscape of the old, traditional Africa. I enjoyed it very much, stoping, talking with the people and enjoying the landscape. I have another funny village name to my collection: Vungu-Vungu!
Night in the bush hut in the Ngepi Camp on the bank of Kavango River – the 4-km access road is horrible for 2WD car like our!
